* Are your massless electrons related to this? http://rexresearch.com/barbat/barbat.htm Dunno. This is all new to me. Looks like Wm. Barbat is jumping on board with the idea, and why not? Maybe there is something big brewing up there in Oregon. OTOH, they did recently legalize recreational ganga… :-) An interesting detail is the implication that CuO could be a Weyl semimetal. As we know, CuO is the backbone of high temperature superconductors, but it probably requires more to become a robust WF, such as we see in BISCO. It would be most intriguing if HTSC can be linked to the new fermion. For a long time there has been strong hints of a connection between LENR and HTSC.
