Mark,
To be a bit contrarian: this looks like bad science to me.
I think it is part assumption error, and part a relic of cavity
super-radiant emission (Dicke-Preparata) by nanotubes, which emission is
partially focused on a good blackbody emitter. If fact most of the effect
could be
The experiments used DC current, which is why the 'remote' heating was
unexpected.

I don't believe Inductive Heating only occurs in AC, as in Alternating. The
current does not have to be alternating as in reversing directions
periodically. All that is require is a time varying current, which could be

This is a new phenomenon we're observing, exclusively at the nanoscale, and

The article makes it appear as if they stumbled on the effect, but the
abstract (click link at end of article)makes it clear they were
looking for the effect because some new models of joule heating
predicted it.

Inductive heating usually requires a time changing current in order to heat the
nearby conductor. Maybe the current in this case is more like a series of
quantum pulses which might have the time varying property required. A great
deal of the effect would depend upon the relative magnitude of
