*   Yep, no one wants to believe significant levels of time dilation and 
Lorentzian contraction can occur when gas loads in the interstitial space and 
defects of metal lattices but it is the easiest solution to multiple anomalies.

At the most recent Bay Area meetup, which I missed, the following was presented 
-- which involves anomalous heat from gas phase Pd-D. It sounds a lot like the 
design of CoolEssence (Moddel et al) except they predict real fusion.

Quote: “The engine design is based around nanoparticles (of palladium) trapped 
in a proton conducting ceramic (zirconia). Fuel (deuterium) moves through the 
ceramic freely, and is taken up by the sponge-like nanoparticles.

RE: [Vo]:Co59 Beta decay rates on Magnetar surface

2016-09-09 Thread Stephen Cooke
In case it is interesting to some I found this interesting presentation on soft 
Soft Gamma Repeaters and Magnetars.
http://www2011.mpe.mpg.de/363-heraeus-seminar/Contributions/3Wednesday/morning/KHurley.pdf

I appreciate that we are talking about very strong magnetic fields and rather 
specific conditions in neutron stars here but their may be some insights 
lurking in the data.
I did find the spectra of the rather broad and familiar looking spectra from 
the soft gamma sources interesting but that might be pure coincidence of 
course. Im curious where that broad spectra comes from. If it is a 
bremsstrahlung origin, a relativistic effect or some other cause.
here is another interesting link giving a good background:
http://solomon.as.utexas.edu/magnetar.html
And here is another very recent but possibly related article very bright X-ray 
sources that might or might not actually be related somehow.

Stephen—
 
I agree that the data from the magnetars are important.  It may be important in 
getting to a unified theory linking gravity and EM fields.   The absence of 
spectra may even identify dark matter—hydrinos for example.   Mills’s theory may
 see the light of day from magnetars.
 
The data, combined with the note from the recent Pam Mosier-Boss etal  paper 
summarizing the Pd-D work over the years for everybody—including for DOD 
presentation for Congress in a couple weeks—regarding super conductivity, is 
intriguing
 to say the least.  Alain’s (of Paris) early note about this paper being 
important is right on..
 
The large magnetic fields should make it possible to discern spin energy states 
associated with various nuclear species.  Their separation—differential 
energies—in a strong gravitational field may show how angular momentum 
associated with
 spin are linked to mass energy and hence gravity.  It may be that Plank’s 
quanta of angular momentum (h/2pi) is noticeably greater at the surface of a 
magnetar.   The study of such stars with different magnetic/gravitational 
fields will become the focus of
 cosmology soon, if not already the focus as you suggest—a hot topic.  
 
I continue to speculate that the coupling of spin energy to orbital spin energy 
states of electrons in a metal lattice is key to understanding how the LENR 
occurs without much normal 2-body high energy physics radiation—neutrons, gammas
 etc.

Thank you very much for this link Bob. 



It looks like an interesting paper.



It looks like the phenomena on the surface of magnetars is a hot topic this 
year.



I wonder if this can be an effective data source forand analogue for 
conditions present in LENR? At the very least they should give some insight 
about the magnetic nature of physical processes involved in particle decays and
 interactions that may be applicable even in lower magnetic fields.



Perhaps the local magnetic field in a nucleus at fm distances has impacts on 
nucleon stability and decay rates either directly or through resonance 
phenomena, perhaps at quark level. 



If so it would be interesting to know if there can still be significant 
influence say at a few hundred fm if the magnetic moment and available energy 
states are high.



I wonder if their are any other interesting observational indicators on 
Magnetars it would be interesting maybe to see if the spectra can reveal the 
isotope ratios of elements. I suppose this might be easily possible for lighter
 elements and maybe due to the magnetic field from fine structure 
characteristics of the spectra. UV and X-Ray spectra could also be interesting 
especially if they can reveal something about the excitation state of the 
electrons in the atoms and the nucleus
 excitation states, as well as more macroscopic X-ray and RF radiation effects 
due to the plasma effects. Even though it's very different place and overall 
conditions than a LENR device, perhaps there are a lot of LENR physics 
analogues at macro scale that
 are applicable to LENR on micro scale that can be observed there.

Hi Eric

You might be right and if so it will be interesting. Apart from the interesting 
effects on the magnetic and electric fields I suppose those high density 
fluctuations may couple with the soft x-ray radiation through coupling with the 
plasma frequency if the electron density can get sufficiently high enough to 
approach that of degenerate matter.

I wonder if there is a way we could measure those fluctuations externally would 
there be apparent signature in the EMF or something?

Even though this paper is looking at quite extreme conditions with regards the 
magnetic field the fact it affects the decay rates seems to indicate something 
about how that decay works in general. I know similar studies have also been 
performed on the decay of Neutrons in strong magnetic fields but these would be 
free neutrons and so would probably align easier with the external field.

Has any one identified what kind of magnetic field strengths we get in side a 
nucleus with in a few fm of a Nucleon? And what its strength would be fort her 
out at a few hundred fm or more?

I do appreciate this question is simplistic as I probably need to consider the 
wave function in detail to understand the process and the implications of all 
the possible spin and angular momentum states etc but I'm not up to speed there 
unfortunately. So this is rather more a conceptual question regarding the 
dipole magnetic field from a particle.

Note the importance of spin energy and the energy released by neutrinos; also

out at a few hundred fm or more?

I do appreciate this question is simplistic as I probably need to consider the 
wave function in detail to understand the process and the implications of all 
the possible spin and angular momentum states etc but I'm not up to speed there 
unfortunately. So this is rather more a conceptual question regarding the 
dipole magnetic field from a particle.

Yes, modification of decay rates is a topic of great interest to me.

This is a theoretical paper, apparently working within the current assumptions 
of physics.  In order for most LENR observations to be explained by induced 
decay, I think that one or more of those assumptions will need to be revisited 
somewhat. One example: how high the electron density can get for short periods 
of time in metals under nonequilibrium conditions.

It's concerning changes in beta decay rates in the presence of  magnetic fields 
on magnetars.

I have so far only read the abstract but I think it could be interesting.

Yep, no wants to believe significant levels of time dilation and Lorentzian 
contraction can occur when gas loads in the interstitial space and defects of 
metal lattices but it is the easiest solution to multiple anomalies.

Hi Eric
You might be right and if so it will be interesting. Apart from the interesting 
effects on the magnetic and electric fields I suppose those high density 
fluctuations may couple with the soft x-ray radiation through coupling with the 
plasma frequency if the electron density can get sufficiently high enough to 
approach that of degenerate matter.
I wonder if there is a way we could measure those fluctuations externally would 
there be apparent signature in the EMF or something?
Even though this paper is looking at quite extreme conditions with regards the 
magnetic field the fact it affects the decay rates seems to indicate something 
about how that decay works in general. I know similar studies have also been 
performed on the decay of Neutrons in strong magnetic fields but these would be 
free neutrons and so would probably align easier with the external field.

Has any one identified what kind of magnetic field strengths we get in side a 
nucleus with in a few fm of a Nucleon? And what its strength would be fort her 
out at a few hundred fm or more?
I do appreciate this question is simplistic as I probably need to consider the 
wave function in detail to understand the process and the implications of all 
the possible spin and angular momentum states etc but I'm not up to speed there 
unfortunately. So this is rather more a conceptual question regarding the
