atrioventricular conduction

I now know this was a conduction-style vaporizer, which requires a chamber to hold the steam.

But a few decades ago this same ability to disrupt nerve conduction led to a medical use: deliberate, targeted paralysis.

This small gap is a place of bad conduction and of the piling up of atoms, producing heat, burning, light.

With regard to the conduction of sound—it is to be noted that sound is carried astonishingly far by means of compact bodies.
