Of course I believe N-rays are nonsense, but I can't help but notice similarities between these "N-Rays" and infrared radiation (perhaps thermal, perhaps near IR). Excited phosphors can be stimulated to de-excite with IR (increasing - temporarily! - the light intensity the phosphor emits. The sun emits IR of course. Water absorbs infrared. And being ~100% wrong in the blind controlled experiment indicates he is detecting the exact opposite, or misunderstood his task in the experiment. If it were random it would have been 50%... We are blindly believing Wood on his word he took out the prism for example. Obviously N-rays don't exist though. Something else is the article seems to concede that he did discover the wave nature of X-rays by deflecting them with a "charged electric field", which I assure you is total nonsense...
