In reply to Jones Beene's message of Sun, 19 Feb 2017 12:36:18 -0800: Hi Jones, Actually, I was wrong. It is energetically possible with light Hydrogen, and in fact yields just over 6 MeV. The reason it didn't show up in my program as a possible reaction is because my program doesn't take

Robin, Agree it is not possible with hydrogen, but dense hydrogen is a different story. Dense hydrogen includes the "virtual neutron" conceptions ... One reference is Daddi, Lino, "Virtual Neutrons In Orbital Capture And In Neutron Synthesis" Another is Daddi, Lino, "Hydrogen Miniatoms"

Jones, You have called me a Rossi fan but I have no trouble considering that he may have used a rare isotope of Ni. That is the point. Nobody knows and it is better to wait for full information. It does not seem necessary, at least for relatively low COPs. See this example of a paper on

Bob, OK let's also mention the main objection to this hypothesis. (Ni62 + HDH -> Ni63) The objection would be the extended half-life of about 3 months for Ni-63. This is a problematic since the nickel powder should be radioactive after a run for many months, due to Ni-63 activation - and

Jones- The article notes that centrifuges will be used to enrich “Ni-62” not Ni-63? That may be correct, since Ni-62 is what is used for LENR. Bob Cook From: Jones Beene Sent: Sunday, February 19, 2017 8:29 AM To: Vortex List Subject: [Vo]:Nickel isotopes, cat-mouse and Russia Interesting
