From Craig: Some good questions. There also might be a few misconceptions that I will attempt to clarify. Can I opt out? If I didn't want to use the virtual currency, but instead chose to trade gold for services rendered, with other people who wanted to opt out, could we? If so,

[Vo]:How to go from force to energy - Casimir heating or cooling

2010-12-28 Thread Jones Beene
I've been thinking further about how it might be possible to go from a force (pressure) to continuous energy via Casimir geometry. Normally, any force like gravity or inertia is a one-way street, unless there is a disconnect in the overall symmetry which can be exploited by a rapid transaction

A Large Mechanical Force from the Quantum VacuumNASA's Breakthrough Physics Propulsion Program concluded that we might someday use the momentum of the photons of the Quantum Vacuum to eliminate the cumbersome on-board reaction-mass and fuel of rockets. According to Stochastic

On Tuesday, December 28, 2010 2:34 Jones Beene said The key leap of faith for Casimir heating is *asymmetry* in a narrow range that operates via access the Dirac epo field. I would call it a small logical step and not a leap - We know reactors like those used by BLP and others heat hydrogen into

From Jones: ... In a nutshell, small changes in internal stress as it relates to compressive strain could provide continuous heating due to quantum fluctuations which are a well-known feature of these cavities. When the medium is fermion-like, it releases energy, but when it is

From: OrionWorks * But now, getting back to speculations on Casimir heating or cooling effects, how much evidence exists that might allow us to speculate on the proposed validity that the materials involved, which are being heated up and cooled, are capable of switching back-and-forth

From Jones ... Thanks to google books, we have access to old issues of New Scientist from 1981. On p. 205-6 there is clear indication that we have known for nearly 30 years that hydrogen condensation can happen at cryogenic temperatures - i.e. that monatomic hydrogen is a composite boson
