I think the Papp engine was real. However, I also think it may be a case of “hidden in plain sight”.
I think the radioactive stuff and inert gases may have been deliberate misdirection. There was a controversy years back in which a Professor Graneau asserted that arcs in water might be overunity. The same might go for arcs in water vapor. There was supposedly a demonstration for the government in which a cannon was blown apart like a Roadrunner cartoon. This would be similar to trees being blown apart by lightning – that wasn’t a steam expolsion.

The alpha decay of Radium biased the pickup electrode with a positive charge that would attract electrons. This idea came from the well known technique used to dope lightning rods with radium back in the 1800s to increase the ability of these rods to attract lightning. In the Papp engine, the application of an electric arc increased the production of alpha decay right before the feedback current was produced by the plasma.
