Continuous Wave operation, ie; an air core transformer that runs at a more
or less steady amplitude sine wave that is not interrupted.

If you ask me, CW coils (ie; vacuum tube coils) are not strictly speaking,
Tesla coils.

Disruptive Discharge coils operate with a damped ringing pulse.  Also known
as Tesla coils.  ;)
