GJB: If your hypothesis started with some (peer-reviewed, or not) references, could you please provide some links or abstracts on those?
-Mark From: GJB [mailto:kiw...@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, December 08, 2011 3:16 PM To: vortex-L@eskimo.com Subject: [Vo]:RFC: Localised Electrodynamic Lattice reaction hypothesis Hi All, I'd just like to put this hypothesis out there to get some feedback and see where the major flaws are: - Small spheres with dielectric-metal interfaces only support surface plasmon polaritons with the spherical harmonic waves of the l=1 mode (the lowest), implying that normal component of field enhancement effect occurs purely at the two poles (North and South). So only two reaction sites per sphere but very intense field enhancements happen there, with the whole energy of the wave being concentrated temporarily at only these two sites. Some estimates put the field strengths at such sites at around 10^11 V/m - The free electron density wave normal field component penetrates ~10 nm into the metal but ~100nm into the dielectric, i.e. v. high normal accelerations at reaction sites - Potential dynamic voltages normal to the metal surface generated could then be of the order 10 kV - Free protons that occur near the surface at reaction sites will also be accelerated by the enhanced surface plasmon polariton normal components, i.e. on the rebound the protons will be accelerated and have large velocity components perpendicular into the metal at the local reaction sites - The surface plasmons have frequencies of order 10^14-10^15 Hz so the normal acceleration of protons away from and into the metal is taking place a high number of times per second, i.e. even low probability fusion events become likely in short (human) time scales. - The number of these reaction sites are directly proportional to the number of spheres (or pointed pyramids, etc) in a reactor - The driving mechanisms that excite the surface plasmon resonances could be electrons from currents (having drift velocity) in electrolytic cells or infrared radiation in thermally driven cells (this is a weak area since surface plasmon polaritons will require specific frequencies of radiation for excitation) It is like a Inertial Electrostatic Confinement fusion model in some respects, but it is electrodynamic/lattice in essence since it uses the field of the free electron coherent surface plasmon waves to accelerate normally the protons, and the lattice to confine the nucleons of the metal targets. So call it Localised Electrodynamic Lattice fusion. Worth pursuing? kiwigjb
