Lou,

This kind of photon stimulation was of great interest a few years ago and is
known as the Letts/Cravens effect. They had a tortuous path to get it to a
useful level when at EarthTech. Many null results in the process. Are we
there yet? 

At one time they also were saying that a magnetic field adds to the effect.
That is of keen interest as well, if this effect relates to quantum
entanglement, in any way.

Two additional points of interest that jump out to the Ni-H crowd:

1)  This gain from optical stimulation applies to Pd-D. Does it apply
equally to Ni-H?
2)  The highest gain is at ~15 THZ which is a IR emission (near IR)
better known from its wavelength about 1.5 microns. This corresponds to a
blackbody temperature, so the laser only adds coherency.

Actually the third point for interest for Ni-H watchers is derivative. 

If the answer to 1) is yes, then should not the active powder be in the size
range of 2)?

We have continued our experiments using duel laser stimulation of
electrochemically loaded PdD. In earlier work, we used two properly

optical frequencies; interestingly, we found that the excess heat
is sensitive to the beat difference frequency. Low-level thermal signals
are observed to be triggered at apparent resonances when the difference
frequency is 8.3,
15.3 and 20.4 THz

My impression is that their source has a wideband discrete spectrum of
phase-locked frequencies - so that the same stimulus signal is repeatedly
swept.

Jones,

My reply was originally to Mark Iverson's thread - I don't know why it
started a new one.  Mark is citing some experiments showing that
photosynthesis is more efficient when driven by selected multiple fixed
frequencies, and wonders whether there is a connection with CF/LENR
effects.

Good question on Ni-H.  Rossi apparently uses an RF-generator.  I have to
check on others, like Miley and Defkalion.  Energetics uses ultrasound -
their signal is imprecisely defined in their patent application,  but it's
clearly broadband, and appears to have a discrete picket-fench spectrum.

Based on the papers I've perused, I'd guess that optimal em/sonic
stimulation depends sensitively on particle size, temperature, morphology,
density, colloidal formations, crystallization patterns, proximity to
surfaces, ...

If Rossi's claims are accurate, I'd bet that National Instruments is
trying to (somehow) close the loop in this huge state-space to stay in the
tiny and elusive stable optimal operating spaces.

Thanks,
Lou Pagnucco

Morning guys!

Yes, the state-space involves numerous variables, and their interactions
(e.g., CONstructive vs DEstructive interference)... trying to model it,
understand it, and then control it will likely be a monumental task.  The
complexity of the problem, and it's sensitivity to precise frequencies
(because we're dealing with resonances), also makes this a VERY difficult
thing to reproduce.

This article http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/01/120120183038.htm
may have some bearing on your discussion.

 

[snip] Current T-ray imaging devices are very expensive and operate at only
a low output power, since creating the waves consumes large amounts of
energy and needs to take place at very low temperatures.

In the new technique, the researchers demonstrated that it is possible to
produce a strong beam of T-rays by shining light of differing wavelengths on
a pair of electrodes -- two pointed strips of metal separated by a 100
nanometre gap on top of a semiconductor wafer. The structure of the
tip-to-tip nano-sized gap electrode greatly enhances the THz field and acts
like a nano-antenna to amplify the wave generated. In this method, THz waves
are produced by an interaction between the electromagnetic waves of the
light pulses and a powerful current passing between the semiconductor
electrodes.

...Rossi apparently uses an RF-generator.  

No. He does not.
If you carefully look at the videos of nyteknik, You can see that there is no
entry for an RF-gen into the system.
A RF-gen is a sophisticated device, I can tell You, and definitely cannot be
inside an enclosure which varies in the hundreds of degrees Celsius.
If the video of nyteknik is showing the 'real' thing, there is no RF-gen in the
system!

Anyone supposing that there is one, did not pay attention!
Plus: Anyone assuming that controlling an RF-gen of significant power (Watts)
in an an environment, where temperatures vary in the hundreds of degrees, is
either a fool or a physicist.

Is this some kind of joke? 

Your background must be in communications or entertainment. How can anyone
define RF as sophisticated for use in energy devices? ROTFL. That borders
on absurdity. We are not talking about a need for precision waves for the
audiophile, nor information transfer for computers, nor anything other than
what would otherwise be called spiky (superradiant) noise.

A single diode, properly placed, can convert DC to what is arguably RF -
if one is so tolerant as to admit that a certain high level of noise is not
a problem and can be an advantage.
