Invoking the aether, or the term: "radiant energy", is indicative of a sociological disorder in which we have been collectively bound hand and foot to a digression from the full, and non-adulterated, truth which the conservatives who control the status quo of electronic engineering would rather not face within the domain of their own profession using the words of their trade along with concepts already endowed in Physics. No new word, or concept, need be invoked to explain overunity, or underunity -- in other words, the apparent creation or destruction of energy.
Physics already has Emmy Noether's Theorem in which time is taken to be an absolute reference frame for single observers so long as we adhere to the Conservation of Energy Law.
And it is the dielectric of a capacitor which holds the key to the apparent creation or destruction of electrical energy. Playing around with my parametric excitation circuit simulations (listed at the bottom of the "Vinyasi.Cts" menubar) convinced me of this.
Looking at the equations in Paul Falstad's simulator for the purposes of inserting equivalent series resistance into all caps and coils (using Wikipedia's article) ...
http://is.gd/eqseres... plus standard wire resistance charts for various AWG sizes, and the early chapters of Joseph Newman's book: "The Energy Machine of Joseph Newman", it becomes very plain to see that the equations for determining current are a reciprocal relationship between caps and coils.
In other words, the mathematical calculation of current for an inductor is exactly the same as that used for calculating current immediately surrounding a capacitor. Their only difference is that each is the reciprocal of the other, namely: one over, or one divided by, the other.
And when equivalent series resistance is applied to a simulator's presumption of a super-conducting coil (especially in this case), a positive resistance appears which makes it more difficult to simulate overunity.
But when equivalent series resistance is applied to a simulator's presumption of a capacitor not possessing any ESR, a funny thing becomes obvious: ESR in a cap is negative resistance while ESR in a coil is positive resistance.
The magic of Eric Dollard's LMD analog computer -- of caps in series and coils in parallel -- is that we don't have to parametrically manipulate any component. All we have to do is make sure that it comes alive, or if it comes alive too readily, then intermittently suppress its surge to depress its explosive force (using switching and/or small batteries acting as anchor weights).
If surges were more common, Nature would explode too easily leaving nothing to remain for any duration necessary for creatures to slowly evolve.
So, surges are suppressed by Nature as well as by electrical engineering policies in their practice as well as in simulators.
But there are ways around this suppression which the LMD analog computer suggests may be possible (if a simulator lets us surge a circuit).

In Joseph Newman's case, I successfully simulated overunity and the recharging of his battery pack by assuming that a rotating magnetic field generates current. Nothing surprising, here.
Joseph only feeds voltage (for the most part) into his massive coil since resistance, via the coil's long wire length, is prohibiting any appreciable flow of current through it. So, where does the current arise from which recharges his batteries? It appears around his rotating permanent magnet.
And since Joseph inputs an initial mechanical energy to begin the rotation of his magnets, and since his coil accumulates voltage and retains it, his coil becomes a secondary voltage source more significant than his batteries since it also amplifies voltage input from the batteries by using a circuit which spends less voltage than the coil accumulates.
The sinewave current from the rotating permanent magnet blends with the commutator's square wave voltage to create an amplified wave of mixed shape (a blend between a nice curvy sinewave versus a square wave) sufficient to reverse current flow and impart a small charge to his batteries.
His device engages positive feedback in which the coil sustains anything offered to it allowing for accumulation of electrical energy since very little electrical energy is spent by the circuit as it converts its voltage into a mechanical advantage of tremendous torque.
