AC (oscillatory) signals in the heater surrounding the cylinder will be
reflected or absorbed as heat before reaching the inner confines of the
cell where the H2 is.  There will be a huge attenuation from the outside to
the inside.  If the exterior AC/RF is increased in amplitude, by the time
enough RF energy is deposited into the H2 to cause any disassociation, you
would probably have melted the stainless cell from the amount of RF that
the cell converted to heat (absorbed in skin resistance).  I just don't
think this form of H2 excitation is possible with the present
configuration.  I think his reaction is being stimulated by heat (perhaps
cycled heating).
