Found via the Google query "Energy Creation in Electrical Sparks" Pappas. On that results page Google showed: "In response to a legal request submitted to Google, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page" (LumenDatabase.org). Which result was removed, and why, is unknown. Recorded as an anomaly. The Lumen notice can be looked up next run.

Other results on that query [web, snippets only]: Academia.edu "Other Voices: A Summary of Research Not Present" (cites Pappas 1991 IECEC, vol. 4, pp. 416-423, and "On Solving the Great Problems of the World", 26th IECEC luncheon speech, Boston, 8 Aug 1991); Journal of New Energy vol 2 no 2 (Scribd) citing the same paper next to "the abnormal glow exhibits a negative resistance characteristic as the tube begins an arc discharge"; Moray King, "The Energy Machine of T. Henry Moray" (tuks.nl PDF) cites it; "Review of Zero Point Energy" (preterhuman.net); Energetic Forum (Donald Smith thread); ResearchGate "Zukunftstechnologien für nachhaltige Entwicklung" (German, 2016) cites it. The citation chain links Pappas's spark-energy claim to the zero-point-energy and Moray literature (related work, priority 3).

How this bears on the claims

  • Claim 1: titles of the inventor's own papers on energy creation in sparks (1988-1991). Text still needed: IECEC 1991 vol. 4 pp. 416-423; Tesla Symposium 1988 and 1990 proceedings; Einsiedeln 1989 proceedings.
