I have packed Reactor 1 ready for shipping to Luke and I am continuing with reactor 2. This is the design of the resonance coil and capacitor:

There are two outer coils of 400 T each of 0.9 mm wire. One is the exciter coil, the other the output coil. The input from the mains transformer is 1 amp giving 400 AT
Previously in reactor 1 I had 150 AT into the system but with the output potential of 200 V it looks like the current sheet was more that 150 AT from the previous resonance coil calculation. See below:
Rms Potential 200 (By measurement)
Half Wavelength 0.03
Velocity 3.00651512
Peak Potential 280.0
Peak Current 0.08944210
Rms Current 0.63887216e-1
Peak Ampere Turns 1162.74733
Plasma Current 1162.74733
Plasma Current Density 1.16274733e8 Amp per meter^2, near centre
Ion Pressure of Plasma 3.14677092e8 Pa
Power lost through resistance 11.5316588 Watt
Power Generated if Deuterium 5.60055355e10 Watt
Power Generated by natural hydrogen 1344.13285 Watt
So it is likely that something was happening. Not enough for ignition.
The current sheet is calculated at 1000 AT. That is 10 times the exciter current sheet. The input current was estimated from the impedance measured at 50 Hz and the potential at the input (from the published information on the transformer).
Since very high potentials are not involved then quite cheap capacitors may be used.
