I question whether the article is correct about the "J-Damper" being a meaningless code-name. In circuit theory, a capacitor can be thought of as a resistor with purely complex (and frequency varying) impedance. Since "J" is the standard symbol for the square root of -1, and given the fact that this device had never been used before, "Imaginary Damper" seems entirely appropriate.
