[Vo]:A picture is worth a thousand words, or maybe 10k
The following is overly simplistic, but also surprisingly intuitive for a particular hypothesis, so it is worth the effort to try to get down an explanation for the Rossi/Parkhomov effect . one containing less than a thousand words, by using a few images. Here is an image of the Li-7 nucleus. Keep in mind the single tenet that like-charges repel. In a small nucleus, and ignoring QM for a moment in favor of macro geometrical restraints this means that nesting of nucleons becomes complicated. since in the case of 3 protons, they must be kept apart by neutrons. http://www.lnhatom.com/Lithium%207.jpg To oversimplify the point which will be made below: the red balls are the 3 protons, and they do not touch each other because the 4 neutrons form a tetrahedron which effectively separates them, and a tetrahedron is an especially stable geometry. Therefore, this isotope should be more stable than one where like charges have the possibility of fleeting contact. In fact, almost 93% of natural lithium is this particular isotope: Li7 despite this isotope being a drip line anomaly in itself. That stable tetrahedral nesting arrangement at the core of Li7 is not the case with lithium-6 however; and this nucleus becomes unstable, particularly when stressed by incursion of positive charge (such as by the approach of a proton). That is because the only stable geometry which we can visualize for Li6 is to have a near-planar hexagonal arrangement of alternating neutrons and protons, arranged somewhat like a benzene ring, which is not spherical and not stable wrt the strong force: https://dlnmh9ip6v2uc.cloudfront.net/assets/0/4/e/8/2/519fa09dce395f8b08 00.png Therefore, a planar structure like the one above, when it is located inside orbiting electrons is itself unstable, and the natural charge-equalizing tendency is for the hexagonal plane to revert to something more compact, like a sphere. Therefore on occasion, and as several papers are now suggesting, the lithium-6 nucleus temporarily takes the form of 3 deuterons, arranged in the X,Y Z axes where the neutrons of each deuteron are in contact. This is where Efimov state comes into play. Now the visual image of greatest impact is to imagine the 3 deuterons expressing the Efimov Halo Effect, which is state of oscillating balance and Russian nesting dolls geometry as predicted by Efimov. This state should function like a pump, among other possibilities. But a pump for what? For those who suspect that the Dirac sea, as expressed in Don Hotson's many papers, is accessible as a point source, then one suggestion is that the Li6 nucleus can act like a pump for something which is intrinsic to the Dirac sea. and since epos are ruled out by the lack of observed radiation, then that something is most likely spin, or a subset like angular momentum, or a quantum of spin: a Dirac spinor, or something along those lines. Thus the Li6 nucleus would be the a gateway for spin energy coupling - especially at a temperature where the 3-deuteron geometry is favored. This temperature seems to be in the range of 1400K in the dogbone. This hypothesis suggests that the key to the excess heat in dogbone-type devices is lithium-6. The thermal anomaly will be maximized by enrichment in the isotope, and should go away with all Li7. Thus, this hypothesis, despite being complicated in detail - is easily falsifiable, unlike most of the other explanations floating around, which generally fail due to the lack of observable high energy radiation.
RE: [Vo]:A picture is worth a thousand words, or maybe 10k
Bob, In general - the evidence says that there is an almost complete lack of high energy radiation, or neutron activation, in the reported experiments even at the kilowatt thermal level- this means that there are no neutrons, no fusion and little transmutation (other than incidental). If any of these indicia were present, there would be substantial activation: which would be proof. But there is none of this. It seem prudent to drop the idea of nuclear fusion until there is minimal evidence that supports it. Now it is simply a default position. The path forward in RD is clear to me - construct two cells, one depleted in Li7 and the other depleted in Li6. If there is no clear advantage to the Li6, then this hypothesis fails and another one must be found. Experiment rules, and experiment says that there is no nuclear fusion. Unfortunately, ORNL is quoting $35,000 gram for Li6. This is many times higher - probably 100x higher than last year. It looks like politics has become involved, and that there could be a high level effort to discourage the use of Li6. Why? From: Bob Cook Jones-- The Li-6 loves neutrons and will readily change to Li-7, if one is nearby. It may be that the Li-6 acts as a catalyst to combine the charge of a proton and an electron to form a neutron and He-5, which in turn gives up another neutron and gets to He-4. The neutrons can then combine with most anything to form an isotope up to Ni-62 with loss of mass along the way. It will be interesting to see what the isotopic analysis of Parkhomov's ash is. It is being evaluated currently. We may see some Si-28 coming from Al-27 transmutation via the short-lived Al-28 isotope. Also, in thinking about the geometrical stability of the Li-7 and the lack of the stability of Li-6. I assume you envision a concentrated point charge associated with the protons with respect to the geometry. I for one do not think there is a segregation of charge within the nucleus, but that the charge is spread throughout the nucleus so as to eliminate discontinuities at a 0 distance. Thus, variation in charge density within a nucleus is nil. However the charge density shape can be modified by the approach of other charges or electric or magnetic fields. That is what happens when Li-6 is hit with a gamma which causes it to breakup or activate to a higher energy state--an isomer with an unstable charge density configuration.

RE: [Vo]:A picture is worth a thousand words, or maybe 10k
Given that the deuteron is a magnetic dipole - a quantum nuclear magnet which interacts with its own electrons to form a magnon... we have an interesting situation when 3 deuterons, connected at the focal point as if one pole, and having an x,y, and z axis... oscillate at elevated temperatures. Since a single pole is expressed outwardly, this arrangement looks to all the world to be a tiny monopole, but of course it is not. Efimov effect in quantum magnets Nishida, et al. Nature Physics 9, 93-97 (2013) http://www.nature.com/nphys/journal/v9/n2/abs/nphys2523.html This paper adds some formality to the above emerging view that a lithium-6 nucleus, when acting like 3 deuterons on a transient basis, is coupling spin energy from the Dirac sea into the normal spatial dimensions of a simple reactor. Quote: Physics is said to be universal when it emerges regardless of the underlying microscopic details. A prominent example is the Efimov effect, which predicts the emergence of an infinite tower of three-body bound states obeying discrete scale invariance when the particles interact resonantly. Because of its universality and peculiarity, the Efimov effect has been the subject of extensive research in chemical, atomic, nuclear and particle physics for decades. Here we employ an anisotropic Heisenberg model to show that collective excitations in quantum magnets (magnons) also exhibit the Efimov effect. We locate anisotropy-induced two-magnon resonances, compute binding energies of three magnons and find that they fit into the universal scaling law. We propose several approaches to experimentally realize the Efimov effect in quantum magnets, where the emergent Efimov states of magnons can be observed with commonly used spectroscopic measurements. Our study thus opens up new avenues for universal few-body physics in condensed matter systems. _ From: Jones Beene Bob, In general - the evidence says that there is an almost complete lack of high energy radiation, or neutron activation, in the reported experiments even at the kilowatt thermal level- this means that there are no neutrons, no fusion and little transmutation (other than incidental).

Re: [Vo]:Re: [Vo]:Efimov - for the third time
In reply to Bob Cook's message of Tue, 24 Mar 2015 07:57:39 -0700: Hi, I think the Li6 nucleus is arranged like this:- 2 neutrons paired with opposite spin. 2 protons paired with opposite spin. 1 neutron left over. 1 proton left over. I think the negative near field of the neutron implies that it has to spin in the same direction as a proton for the pair to be magnetically attracted (N pole of one close to S pole of the other), i.e. in the lowest energy state. Hence the spin of 1 (1/2 + 1/2). However this also means that the magnetic fields of the proton and the neutron don't quite neutralize one another, so the nucleus as a whole should have a small magnetic moment (which it does). That would allow for some magnetic coupling. RE: [Vo]:Re: [Vo]:Efimov - for the third timeJones-- The -1/2 Dirac spinor may actually couple with the electronic Li-6 structure, which in turn couples to the nucleus via a magnetic quadruple/dipole or electric dipole coupling to allow transfer of spin energy to the nucleus. The fact that the Li-6 is a Bose particle (spin 1) may complicate the coupling or make it possible? The activated Li-6 state probably has a different spin number. I do not know enough about the expected nuclear structure to comment. Maybe Prof. N. Cook's book has something about this issue. Also the chart of nuclides that I have has a symbol for the activation cross section which I am not sure I understand. It may indicate the cross section for photon activation, which is well known to produce isomeric nuclear states in Li-6. This activation must be by electric dipole stimulation or magnetic dipole stimulation. I suspect the latter. The symbol is described as follows: a sigma with a subscript gamma and a with a up-side-down arrow above the sigma followed by a cross section and resonant integral The work by some to consistently stimulate LENR with a laser suggests the same thing (activation) may be possible with certain low power resonant photon stimulation.

Jones-- I agree with your observation that there is not radiation seen and hence probably no neutron production, which would lead to activation and decay of activated nuclei with their very visible gammas. My Idea of potential activation of Al-27 is not likely. I like your idea regarding the implication of the Efimov effect in so far as Li-6 is concerned.

Since a single pole is expressed outwardly, this arrangement looks to all the world to be a tiny monopole, but of course it is not. Efimov effect in quantum magnets Nishida, et al. Nature Physics 9, 93-97 (2013) http://www.nature.com/nphys/journal/v9/n2/abs/nphys2523.html This paper adds some formality to the above emerging view that a lithium-6 nucleus, when acting like 3 deuterons on a transient basis, is coupling spin energy from the Dirac sea into the normal spatial dimensions of a simple reactor. Quote: Physics is said to be universal when it emerges regardless of the underlying microscopic details. A prominent example is the Efimov effect, which predicts the emergence of an infinite tower of three-body bound states obeying discrete scale invariance when the particles interact resonantly. Because of its universality and peculiarity, the Efimov effect has been the subject of extensive research in chemical, atomic, nuclear and particle physics for decades. Here we employ an anisotropic Heisenberg model to show that collective excitations in quantum magnets (magnons) also exhibit the Efimov effect. We locate anisotropy-induced two-magnon resonances, compute binding energies of three magnons and find that they fit into the universal scaling law. We propose several approaches to experimentally realize the Efimov effect in quantum magnets, where the emergent Efimov states of magnons can be observed with commonly used spectroscopic measurements. Our study thus opens up new avenues for universal few-body physics in condensed matter systems. _ From: Jones Beene Bob, In general - the evidence says that there is an almost complete lack of high energy radiation, or neutron activation, in the reported experiments even at the kilowatt thermal level- this means that there are no neutrons, no fusion and little transmutation (other than incidental). If any of these indicia were present, there would be substantial activation: which would be proof. But there is none of this. It seem prudent to drop the idea of nuclear fusion until there is minimal evidence that supports it. Now it is simply a default position. The path forward in RD is clear to me - construct two cells, one depleted in Li7 and the other depleted in Li6. If there is no clear advantage to the Li6, then this hypothesis fails and another one must be found. Experiment rules, and experiment says that there is no nuclear fusion. Unfortunately, ORNL is quoting $35,000 gram for Li6. This is many times higher - probably 100x higher than last year. It looks like politics has become involved, and that there could be a high level effort to discourage the use of Li6. Why? From: Bob Cook Jones-- The Li-6 loves neutrons and will readily change to Li-7, if one is nearby. It may be that the Li-6 acts as a catalyst to combine the charge of a proton and an electron to form a neutron and He-5, which in turn gives up another neutron and gets to He-4. The neutrons can then combine with most anything to form an isotope up to Ni-62 with loss of mass along the way. It will be interesting to see what the isotopic analysis of Parkhomov's ash is. It is being evaluated currently. We may see some Si-28 coming from Al-27 transmutation via the short-lived Al-28 isotope. Also, in thinking about the geometrical stability of the Li-7 and the lack of the stability of Li-6. I assume you envision a concentrated point charge associated with the protons with respect to the geometry. I for one do not think there is a segregation of charge within the nucleus, but that the charge is spread throughout the nucleus so as to eliminate discontinuities at a 0 distance. Thus, variation in charge density within a nucleus is nil. However the charge density shape can be modified by the approach of other charges or electric or magnetic fields. That is what happens when Li-6 is hit with a gamma which causes it to breakup or activate to a higher energy state--an isomer with an unstable charge density configuration. Bob - Original Message -
