    Abstract: A method for enhancing the recovery of hydrocarbon deposit includes the step of sensing a material property of an underground volume. A three-dimensional map identifying the spatial variation in the sensed material property of the underground volume is generated. Propagating electromagnetic radiation is transmitted in the volume based on the map. The propagating electromagnetic radiation transmission is varied in at least one of frequency, polarization, wavelength, frequency, amplitude, mode, and phase in response to the variation in the material property of a region within the volume to which the propagating electromagnetic radiation is directed. Accordingly, the volume is heated in a spatially varying manner to heat material in the volume and thereby induce the flow of hydrocarbon deposits from the volume.

    Abstract: A field emission device is configured as a heat engine. In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises: a cathode, an anode, wherein the anode and cathode are receptive to a first power source to produce an anode electric potential higher than a cathode electric potential; a gate positioned between the anode and the cathode, the gate being receptive to a second power source to produce a gate electric potential selected to induce electron emission from the cathode for a first set of electrons having energies above a first threshold energy; a suppressor positioned between the gate and the anode; at least one region including gas located between the cathode and the anode; and at least one path traversable for a first portion of the first set of electrons, extending from the cathode to the anode.
