[Vo]:The simplest element: Turning hydrogen into 'graphene'
http://www.eurekalert.org/pubnews.php Carnegie's Ivan Naumov and Russell Hemley discover hydrogen forms grapheme layers/clusters instead of metal under pressure.. could this also happen loaded into a lattice with fractional hydrogen? Fran
Re: [Vo]:The simplest element: Turning hydrogen into 'graphene'
Cool paper. It goes against current thinking but supports simple chemical propositions from the 1930's. From the article: Aromatic structures take on a ring-like shape that can be thought of as alternating single and double bonded carbons. But what actually happens is that the electrons that make up these theoretically alternating bonds become delocalized and float in a shared circle around the inside of the ring, increasing stability. ***That sounds a lot like a circular BEC starting to form. Similar to my V1DLLBEC but forming a circle at high pressures.

This is a validation of the Rydberg matter structure of hydrogen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rydberg_matter Rydberg matter consists of usually hexagonal planarzclusters; these cannot be very big because of the retardation effect caused by the finite velocity of the speed of light. Hence, they are not gases or plasmas; nor are they solids or liquids; they are most similar to dusty plasmas with small clusters in a gas. All the alkali metals including the Rossi :secret sauce elements potassium and lithium form this hexagonal planar structure and so does water. LeClair said that he found the imprint of a hexagonal planar “water crystal” in his experiments. The take away is that Rydberg matter is important in LENR.
