In addition, the RF would have a near instantaneous effect, whereas Mary's suggestion would have a very significant time-lag. thus, as Axil pointed out, a much greater likelihood of runaway.

Your suggestion may be possible when a automated fail safe control system is developed (maybe by National instruments) to provide some sort of negative feedback control on heat output. IMHO, until such controls are put in place, a runaway meltdown using the strategy you suggest is likely at some juncture.

The purpose of the RF generator is to maintain Rydberg Matter excitation for as long as possible during the self-sustain mode when the internal heater is shut down. Wouldn't it be simpler to route some heat from the thermal output back to the input -- maybe through some sort of heat exchanger? Instead of doing like Rossi did during his first set of experiments -- dumping it in a bucket or into a wall.
