Phil,
If you think I spend too much behind the computer it's because I'm keeping an eye on my grandchildren currently involved in a video, what else.
The dust is presumably Tungsten oxide and nitrides with traces of other contaminants. Although in the strict sense it isn't conductive, at 30Kv or more anything conducts, probably even domestic dust, it would certainly enhance tracking. Don't forget, we are dealing with RF, far more creepy than DC could ever dream about!
Phillip.

All,
Does anyone know for fact if the fine white dust that you find around a
rotary spark gap, from the ablation of the electrodes, is actually
conductive? One supposes it is, but logic and reality can be differant.
