*'''Inductor''' is any [[oscillator]] with a row of dead cells down the middle and whose two halves are mirror images of one another, both halves being required for the oscillator to work. The classic examples are the [[pulsar]] and the [[tumbler]]. If [[still life]]s are considered as p1 oscillators, then there are numerous simple examples such as [[mirrored table]], [[dead spark coil]] and [[cis-mirrored bun]]. Some spaceships, such as the [[brain]], the [[snail]] and the [[spider]] use the same principle.
