Abstract
Using a lattice string model, a number of peculiar excitation situations related to non-propagating excitations and non-radiating sources are demonstrated. External fields can be used to trap excitations locally but also lead to the ability to steer such excitations dynamically as long as the steering is slower than the field's wave propagation. I present explicit constructions of a number of examples, including temporally limited non-propagating excitations, directional excitation and virtually slowed propagation. Using these dynamical lattice constructions I demonstrate that neither persistent temporal oscillation nor static localization are necessary for non-propagating excitations to occur.
