What would stop them? Even if he sold 10 million units, the government can
start regulating them anytime it wants. The government did not begin
effective regulation of automobile safety until the mid-1960s, long after
millions of vehicles had been sold.

I doubt the NRC has the authority to rein him in at present, but if they
decide this is a nuclear effect I'm sure they would either extend their own
authority, or they would ask the Congress and the administration to do so.

They would have the capability to rein him in anytime they want it. This is
reasonable in my opinion. If it is shown that cold fusion is dangerous it
should be regulated carefully.

I think putative DDL state hydrogen (Df/H) and probably hydrinos would be
more stable that you give them credit. At our environmental temperatures,
the average kinetic energy is 1.5 kT which is about .04 eV at room
temperature.  Hydrinos would probably need 50eV in an inelastic collision
to re-inflate, and Df/H would need something like 500keV.  So, hydrinos
would find some ppm of re-inflation on the tail of the Boltzmann curve, but
the Df/H atoms would not.  Long before you got to a 500keV collision, the
Df/H would fuse with its collision target.

Yes, this occurred to me, too.  It will no doubt depend upon the population

In reply to  Bob Higgins's message: 

 Isn't the problem with this scenario that the ground state H/D atom must
GIVE UP energy to enter the DDL state.  

 RvS: Actually this may not be so far from the truth. Consider a situation
where lots of Hydrinos/Deuterinos as forming and giving up energy as they
do, resulting in a large population of shrunken atoms. If the occasional
fusion reaction happens and the energy is used to inflate a few thousand of
the millions of Hydrinos that are present, then no one would notice the
fusion reaction. 

JB: The dynamics of gain could happen either way. Exotherm on shrinkage to
DDL, followed by endotherm on forced expansion is one way; but endotherm to
DDL followed by exotherm on expansion works as well. In either event the
fusion reaction, which would be novel and not mainstream fusion, and it
would balance the books in the sense of providing the net exotherm but not
by a hot photon. This allows LENR to merge with CQM in a unique way which
can be molded to meet all of the reported results - especially when it
happens with Ni58 +D → Ni60.

 RvS: The only problem I have with this scenario is the time factor, i.e.
the distance from the nuclear reaction to the Hydrinos, and the speed of
light. IOW how would such a reaction be able to compete with gamma emission?

JB: The revise mechanics of the gammaless reaction is what is answered more
elegantly by Hagelstein in his latest suggestion. According to Ahern, who
attended the most recent Swartz/Hagelstein presentation at MIT, PH now
proposes that the reaction does not really happen until the excess energy is
already dissipated. That time reversed delay is what makes the underlying
reaction novel. In effect, this is actually NOT gamma fractionalization at
all. It is a QM book balancing act. There never is or never was a gamma to
deal with.

≫ RvS: I guess the answer depends on the gamma emission time. If it's order
E-17 seconds, then light can travel about 3 nm in that time. So thousands of
Hydrinos would need to be packed into a sphere with a radius of less than 3
nm. This doesn't seem very likely to me, unless they are magnetically bound
together in a huge cluster (not impossible, the magnetic binding energy
could be significant, and on the order of chemical binding energies).

JB: As mentioned, the time factor doesn't matter if the gamma reaction never
happens. A substituted QM reaction does not really involve the same
dynamics. This type of QM explanation works best with the deep species -
DDL, for the reasons mentioned in the original post, which is going all the
way to phonons is too large a ratio, even for QM. Mills' formula actually
does not predict this DDL species, since his value for dark matter comes up
on the low side of the actual value. Naudts' value does work. 

≫ RvS: BTW, IRH would also appear to fill the bill in this scenario.

JB: Yes, I have been equating IRH with DDL, but there is one big difference.

≫ RvS: This notion has one other point in its favor: The fusion reaction
wouldn't happen in the first place unless the cluster is present... In this
regard IRH *may* be more likely than Hydrino clusters.

JB: Exactly. When there is this kind of pseudo-fusion reaction, nothing
dramatic happens until after the energy has already been dissipated, and
then what we have is only the QM balancing act… which is to say a novel
form of quantum mechanics where a new isotope appears without a gamma at
all. This is NOT related to thermonuclear fusion ! and there is no gamma,
ever. But of course the mass to be converted to energy has to be the same in
both cases.

You seem to favoring the terminology of IRH over DDL and that is fine
with me, however, DDL invokes Dirac, which is wise - and also it is not
necessarily limited to two dimensions as is IRH which means the reaction can
occur in a fully loaded quantum dot, which is fully entangled to begin with.
The quantum dot at 10 nm can have the correct number of deuterons to make it
all happen. But this also implies 3D instead of 2D, so that is another
reason to use DDL instead of IRH or hydrino. Better yet, Df/D is a
designation which would refer to deep fractional deuterium, and we can
define it from the start to match results (hopefully from Mizuno in
November.

Jones primary position states that LENR does not produce gamma radiation
because LENR is not a nuclear process. Therefore, gamma level radiation

Axil - this is incorrect, except for Mills. 

 

As mentioned, after discovering from Ahern, who went to the lecture at MIT-

conceivable LENR event, there is no good reason not to support the major part 
of his theory. It is QM based. You have badly misinterpreted what he has been

He actually seldom mentions gamma rays, because there are none at all. IOW 
gammas do not exist in the LENR reaction because it is not a thermonuclear 
reaction - which is precisely what I have been saying all along. You have been 
claiming they are emitted, but then absorbed. That is not Hagelstein’s view – 
far from it!

 

I was unaware of that precise detail. In fact, the energy of the reaction has 
been completely dissipated before it ever occurs. That is pure QM, in the sense 
of time reversal. Gammas are thermonuclear. They cannot be absorbed easily, and 
especially not by polaritons or plasmons.

 

Jones cannot accept that gamma fractionalization can be so complete. I states 
that gamma is produced is some situations but can be completely fractionalized

Yes that part is right – I cannot accept your version - because for one thing, 
there is no support for it on the technical level nor on the practical level.

 

In short, there is no expert opinion support for the viewpoint of 
fractionalization, as you have described it. Certainly, it is not what

Jones,

Isn't the problem with this scenario that the ground state H/D atom must
GIVE UP energy to enter the DDL state.  What you propose is that the H/D
atoms could absorb the gamma emission from the transmutation and
fractionate the photons to DDL energy chunks.  For this to occur, the
coupled atoms would already have to be in the DDL state and would then all
jump back to the ground state after each absorbed a fraction of the nuclear
emitted gamma.  While this is not ruled out because it could occur via a
coupled-state non-photonic exhange, you must explain how you have so many
coupled DDL state atoms in place ready to receive and fractionate a gamma
photo.  AND how would the ensemble of atoms reset to a DDL state to be
ready to absorb/fractionate the next gamma photon.

At least in Hagelsteins's theory, the assemblage of coupled atoms is the
condensed matter lattice with strong electronic coupling (though it is
mostly nearest neighbor coupling).  This coupled structure is there to
begin with - it is not formed ad hoc just for fractionating.

Bob Higgins

On Mon, Sep 29, 2014 at 11:12 AM, Jones Beene jone...@pacbell.net wrote:

 The almost intractable problem for explaining LENR to physicists, or even
 undergrads in physics - is that there is no gamma - presenting a major
 obstacle to our understanding if there is to be real fusion. Almost all of
 the other problems in Ni-D, the Mizuno reaction, including lack of
 transmutation products and lack of neutrons have a possible explanation,
 since there is a known reaction with a short half-life that converts Ni58
 and a deuteron to Ni60, leaving no lingering radioactivity. As mentioned in
 prior postings, Ni58 is a bit of an anomaly in having too few neutrons
 (lower amu than cobalt, for instance). Ni58 could be favored for this kind
 of reaction.

 Unfortunately, this reaction is so energetic in net energy, that the lack
 of
 gamma is almost as problematic as the situation with putative fusion of
 deuterons to helium. The most accepted solution to the lack of gammas is
 based on Hagelstein's evolving theory, which can be called gamma
 fractionalization. That theory is based on downshifting of gamma level
 energy, but without the photon emission, all the way to phonon vibrations
 at
 8-16 THz, which is a massive drop of about 8-9 orders of magnitude - or a
 ratio of at least 100,000,000:1 (100 million to one) - which is an enormous
 reduction in energy over a very short time frame.

 Yet, the Hagelstein model, as a general premise could apply to the
 fractionalization to other energy levels - other than all the way to weak
 phonon vibrations, which are a fractional eV. For instance, a
 fractionalization down to the DDL (dark matter) level, is intriguing - in
 which case the ratio is much easier to deal with. Apparently, PH has never
 considered this as an option, so it is worth mentioning as a possibility
 for
 future inclusion into a broader theory.

 In Ni-D, such as the recent Mizuno experiment, where deuterium would
 transmute Ni58 to Ni60, if that much energy (12 MeV prompt + 6 MeV delayed)
 could be taken away as spin, transferred to a large number of atoms - then
 voila, that would be a solution. The spin would serve to decrease electron
 orbitals of deuterons to form the DDL. The ratio which is required drops
 from (100 million to one) all the way down to a few thousand to one.

 In short, Hagelstein's general premise can be improved via a DDL mechanism
 (dense deuterium or deep Dirac level). For this to work in practice, there
 would need to be perhaps 3000+ molecules of deuterium-loaded-nickel,
 operating as a unit (quantum dot unit) with some level of quantum wave
 coherence, with which to share the 12 MeV... which energy release would
 provide about 3.5 keV per molecule of deuterium - to push the molecule down
 into the DDL state. This level would have escaped detection. The quantum
 dot
 is typically the correct size, but is typically a semiconductor, like NiO
 instead of a metal.

 Most of these shrunken molecules simply re-expand, giving back the 3.5
 keV
 (which is the signature of dark matter) which is undetectable in
 operation, but if at least one or two of them were to fuse to nickel, in
 order to repeat the cycle, then we have a limited chain reaction.

 The problem is that even if this scenario worked most of the time, we
 should
 see a percentage of high energy gammas. When none are seen, this casts
 doubt
 on the entire explanation.

 But it is worth mentioning, especially if Mizuno's new results should
 report
 an relative increase in Ni60 relative to Ni58 - or radiation in the 3-4 keV
 range.

LENR.*

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuliano_Preparata*



*Giuliano Preparata postulated that a condensate that was synchronized
though a common EMF signal would demonstrate both superradiance and
superabsorption.*



*There have been extensive discussions about superradiance here on vortex
in the last couple of years.  Jones Beene has kept the concept alive over
the years as a major power amplification mechanism in LENR.*



*Superabsorption is the opposite face of superradiance. The principle of
symmetry demands that the powerful emission of energy be matched in kind by
a powerful mechanism for the absorption of energy.*



*The polariton condensate is the quantum mechanical platform that supports
these complimentary superradiance mechanisms.*



* The soliton acts like a capacitor which stores energy and releases it
rapidly under the trigger of quantum uncertainty. The NAE is the volume of
space that holds the atoms that are within the volume of the focused beam
of magnetism that is released by the soliton.*



*The mechanism that underpins this behavior is the magnetic polariton. The
coherence of this condensate is mediated through a single EMF
intercommunication frequency.*



*Giuliano Preparata quote: “The basic mechanism that makes superradiance
work is that there must be a system that can communicate
electromagnetically only on a well-defined, sharp frequency. If you have a
lot of frequencies, this radiation simply disperses itself. If electrons
emit always at one particular frequency, then you have a tremendous
amplification effect. “*



*The polaritons are Bosons: the carriers of EMF. High frequency EMF from
positron/electron annihilation and nuclear binding energy is shared among
each polariton and whose high frequencies are factionalized in proportions
to the square of the total number of polaritons in the entire LENR system.
If a polariton soliton contains an estimated 10^^23 polaritons, and there
are a billion such solitons, the ability to absorb gamma radiation is truly
prodigious.*



*Electron–positron annihilation occurs when an electron (e−) and a positron
(e+, the electron's antiparticle) collide. The result of the collision is
the annihilation of the electron and positron, and the creation of gamma
ray photons or,*



*e− + e+ → γ + γ*

The reason why a quantum dot idea won't work is the fact that electrons
conform to the Pauli exclusion principle.

The quantum dot can be thought of as a single atom with thousands of
ascending electron orbital energy levels. As these levels absorb gamma
radiation, it get increasingly harder for the higher energy levels
to absorb ever higher energy  photons.

With bosons, this limitation does not exist.

 In Ni-D, such as the recent Mizuno experiment, where deuterium would

 could be taken away as spin, transferred to a large number of atoms - then
 voila, that would be a solution. The spin would serve to decrease electron
 orbitals of deuterons to form the DDL. The ratio which is required drops
 from (100 million to one) all the way down to a few thousand to one.

 In short, Hagelstein's general premise can be improved via a DDL mechanism
 (dense deuterium or deep Dirac level). For this to work in practice, there
 would need to be perhaps 3000+ molecules of deuterium-loaded-nickel,
 operating as a unit (quantum dot unit) with some level of quantum wave
 coherence, with which to share the 12 MeV... which energy release would
 provide about 3.5 keV per molecule of deuterium - to push the molecule down
 into the DDL state. This level would have escaped detection. The quantum
 dot
 is typically the correct size, but is typically a semiconductor, like NiO
 instead of a metal.

 Most of these shrunken molecules simply re-expand, giving back the 3.5
 keV
 (which is the signature of dark matter) which is undetectable in
 operation, but if at least one or two of them were to fuse to nickel, in
 order to repeat the cycle, then we have a limited chain reaction.

 The problem is that even if this scenario worked most of the time, we
 should
 see a percentage of high energy gammas. When none are seen, this casts
 doubt
 on the entire explanation.

 But it is worth mentioning, especially if Mizuno's new results should
 report
 an relative increase in Ni60 relative to Ni58 - or radiation in the 3-4 keV
 range.

Axil,

 

Of all the wild possibilities that we consider on vortex – most of which are 
eventually rejected as impossible, gamma fractionalization still appears to me 
to be the least likely major holdover theory (from the cold fusion era) to be a 
physical reality in the NiH era. This is despite it being arguably more likely 
if there were a more energetic damping avenue to consider – such as DDL or even 
hydrinos.

 

Were it not for Mizuno’s recent experiment, gamma fractionalization would 
likely continue to die a slow death, since Ni-H can be adequately explained 
without it. Until Mizuno, it was looking like deuterium could be on the way out 
too, but now it looks like only palladium is a goner. The November report 
cannot come fast enough.

 

It makes no sense scientifically, or as a practical possibility to propose this 
kind of massive attenuation - unless you can demonstrate some small relic of 
the effect independently in the Lab. The primary problem is not just that the 
energy damping ratio is so extreme – 100 million to one; but also there is the 
100% exclusivity. And equally important is the practical consideration. Why is 
there no proof of a valuable phenomenon which should be possible to demonstrate 
independently of cold fusion – if true. 

 

Once demonstrated, any kind of gamma shielding would be extraordinarily 
valuable since it would allow aircraft or even road vehicles to be powered with 
small fission reactors. However, despite the massive financial and military 
advantages, not a single experiment of the kind proposed to show gamma 
attenuation from deuterium loading has been reported to be successful. 

 

The lack of positive results speak for themselves, and the silence is deafening.

Dear Jones,

 

I have been trying to move you to the “Superabsorption” concept for the last 
year or two. I am pleased that you are getting nearer to appreciate 
Superabsorption of gamma radiation.

 

Superabsorption is the reciprocal concept to Superradiance.

Rossi saw 512KeV gamma from positrons in his early reactors. He put this
fact into his 2010 patent in reference to nickel to copper transmutation.

On January the 14th 2011, Rossi and Focardi gave the first public
demonstration of the low temperature E-Cat to a personally invited group. A
short time afterwards, Francesco Celani, who was present at the
demonstration, sent a review for the event to New Energy Times.

*Francesco Celani record of first public E-Cat demonstration in New Energy
Times http://newenergytimes.com/v2/news/2011/36/3623rf-celani.shtml*

In this article, it is noted that Rossi and Focardi had a twin gamma ray
detector set up in order to detect e+e- annihilation that was expected by
Focardi based on previous experiments. The results from that set up were
not meaningful during the guests time in the room.

Bob Greenyer was keen to understand more about this event, so in the day
following ICCF-18, he quizzed Francesco on the matter. Here is a fresh
account of that event.

Francesco was sitting down with other scientists and guests waiting to be
called in for the demonstration, they were 7 – 8m away from E-Cat which was
behind a door in another room.

Francesco had 2 gamma detectors with him, 1 very cheap and 1 very expensive
battery operated 1.25” NaI(TI) detection range of 25keV to 2000 keV.

He notes that the background in Frascatti is normally around 120 because of
local geology, but in Bologna it is 60, Francesco Celani set the detectors
accordingly and the assembled group sat there patiently waiting.

Suddenly and for about 1 second, both detectors topped out 1000+ counts PER
SECOND and sounded their alarms (they could not show any more). Several of
the invited observers considered literally running from the building as it
was speculated that Rossi might be leveraging a radioactive source in his
experiment. Why such concern? Well, radiation falls off according to
Newtons 1/d^2 law as you can see *here.
http://www.ndt-ed.org/GeneralResources/Formula/RTFormula/InverseSquare/InverseSquareLaw.htm*

Plugging the minimum 1000 counts per second and 8 meters into the formula
would mean that 50cm from the E-Cat, the counts would be over a quarter
million per second - not good!

However, luckily the momentary signal collapsed and about two minutes
later, Rossi came into the waiting room to invite people in to see the
E-cat saying “the reaction has started”.

Francesco and the rest of the invited guests then went into the room where
the E-Cat was. Whilst in that room and using the NaI(TI) near the operating
reactor, there was a 50-100% count increase over background which was
erratic. Francesco decided to try and get a spectra from the detector, in
order to understand what might be going on and so he switched mode on the
detector. Rossi however saw what he was doing, got upset and Celani was
told to stop the measurements, which he did.

In addition, Celani said that he noted a number of gas cylinders in the
room – but that it would only be speculation to say what they were. If
E-Cats do indeed produce high gamma busts prepping for 'switch on' or
elevated emissions during operation, that might explain challenges in
getting domestic certification and the determination to keep below a fixed
cop and using staged cascades of small to big E-Cats to create larger
effective COPs.

Whatever happened that day, Francesco Celani started investigating surface
modified transition metals with hydrogen the following month.

In reply to  Bob Higgins's message of Mon, 29 Sep 2014 11:42:39 -0600:
Hi,
[snip]
Jones,

Isn't the problem with this scenario that the ground state H/D atom must
GIVE UP energy to enter the DDL state.  What you propose is that the H/D
atoms could absorb the gamma emission from the transmutation and
fractionate the photons to DDL energy chunks.  For this to occur, the
coupled atoms would already have to be in the DDL state and would then all
jump back to the ground state after each absorbed a fraction of the nuclear
emitted gamma.  While this is not ruled out because it could occur via a
coupled-state non-photonic exhange, you must explain how you have so many
coupled DDL state atoms in place ready to receive and fractionate a gamma
photo.  AND how would the ensemble of atoms reset to a DDL state to be
ready to absorb/fractionate the next gamma photon.

At least in Hagelsteins's theory, the assemblage of coupled atoms is the
condensed matter lattice with strong electronic coupling (though it is
mostly nearest neighbor coupling).  This coupled structure is there to
begin with - it is not formed ad hoc just for fractionating.

Bob Higgins

Actually this may not be so far from the truth. Consider a situation where lots
of Hydrinos/Deuterinos as forming and giving up energy as they do, resulting in
a large population of shrunken atoms. If the occasional fusion reaction happens
and the energy is used to inflate a few thousand of the millions of Hydrinos
that are present, then no one would notice the fusion reaction.
The only problem I have with this scenario is the time factor, i.e. the distance
from the nuclear reaction to the Hydrinos, and the speed of light. IOW how would
such a reaction be able to compete with gamma emission?

I guess the answer depends on the gamma emission time. If it's order E-17
seconds, then light can travel about 3 nm in that time. So thousands of Hydrinos
would need to be packed into a sphere with a radius of less than 3 nm. This
doesn't seem very likely to me, unless they are magnetically bound together in a
huge cluster (not impossible, the magnetic binding energy could be significant,
and on the order of chemical binding energies).

BTW IRH would also appear to fill the bill in this scenario.

I have previously suggested that a dense cluster might also absorb the energy in
the form of kinetic energy distributed among thousands of densely clustered
atoms. It seems likely that both forms of energy absorption would play a role.

This notion has one other point in it's favour:- The fusion reaction wouldn't
happen in the first place unless the cluster is present (though a cluster of
2, would probably result in some detectable radiation). In this regard IRH
*may* be more likely than Hydrino clusters.
