vi Introduction too small a condenser capacity. For about five months they further experim e nted on the details of construction and finally arrived at the 1 ” coil described in this book. This

coil they feel assured is as emcient as can be made. It is

especially desi g ned to give a high - frequency discharge of

great volume. This latter fact makes it useful for wireless

tele g raphy. In conclusion they have to thank Mr. G. 0. Mitchell for many suggestions and for the kindly interest he has taken in

this work. They feel that without his help the writing of

this little book would have been impossible.

CHAPTER I GENERAL SURVEY BY far the largest and most interesting branch of science is electrici ty , for Maxwell has proven mathematically , and Hertz verified experimentally , that light is an electroma g netic disturbance in the ether , and thus added that subject to the realm of electricity. Amongst the various phenomena of electricity , those of the high - tension current are the most interesting and instructive. With such a current all the wonders of the Geissler and Crookes tubes may be seen. With it waves for wireless messages may be sent out into space , and a great number of other experiments carried out. It is the purpose of this book to S how how a satisfactory apparatus for producing these currents may be constructed , and also to describe a few of the uses for such a coil. The apparatus , as described in this book , is most commonly known as the Tesla High - Frequency Coil , and consists , in general , of four parts : I. The Step - Up Transformer " 2. The Interrupter " 3 . The Condenser " 4 . The O scillation Trans former. Each of these will be fully considered in subsequent chapters. Before entering upon the description of the Tesla high frequency apparat us , however , it would be well to make a few general remarks which are of the g reatest importance.
