 Paul & Alexandra Correa ~ Pulsed Abnormal Glow Discharges (PAGD)
The Correas have now convincingly demonstrated the principle that it is possible to release from charged metals in a vacuum amounts of free energy which exceed the amounts of energy put into the system.
In fact, the Correas seem to have been pushed into their current theoretical and experimental work by a variety of observations about electrodynamic interactions which, instead of involving monopolar massbound charges - such as electrons and heavy ions - implicated 'neutral' or ambipolar charges that were devoid of inertia; the energy involved was therefore mass-free.
The Correas had set out with a careful critique of the present status of their field, discovered inconsistencies, set about to find the reasons for the inconsistencies, and used this information to build an internally consistent intellectual framework, designed tests of its integrity, and applied it to achieve successful demonstrations of its validity.

As powerfully conveyd in his paintiong, Gabri-el, reclamatiion of power and declamination of identity are both painful and joyous.  The great poignancy in Correa's painting lies in the conflict between  the real and the ideal, the need to be free and the desire to be embraced.

 Correa/Reich Affair
The Correa PAGD reactors are essentially low pressure gas devices that employ preferred gas fills, will work sealed or connected to a vacuum pump and depend on specific ranges of gas pressure for any set of configurations.
If the Correa autogenous PAGD reactors tap the aether, this is not by virtue of any passive accumulation of the aether, but by virtue of the phenomenon which Dr. Harold Aspden describes as Aether Spin, and which involves anomalous cathode reaction forces present in the auto-electronic emission triggered PAGD and in externally interrupted VADs.
The Correas' patented electromechanical applications require a vacuum tube operating either in the autogenous PAGD regime or in the interrupted VAD mode and cannot be driven from "Orgone-charged Vacor tubes", "Orgone accumulators", "living beings" or, for that matter, from antennas.
