Bob Higgins--
If the system is coherent, i.e.,a quantum system, the boundary would be linked instaneously. For example, light emitted from a distant object that is bent by a massive object in one direction from Earth is still coordinated with its orginal wave front coming directly from the source and from a different direction. The distance that the wave front traveled as it arrived from different directions may be be different by light years. However, it is still coordinated. This is like spooky action at a distance associated with a quantum system extending across the Universe. The same thing on a smaller scale happens in a semi conductor or a crystal when an electron enters the material system that makes up that semi conductor or crystal. The whole coordinated system recognizes the electron, and the energy states across the material (macroscopic in size in some cases that are so engineered) change instantaneously--again spooky action at a distance associated with a coordinated (some called it entangled) quantum system. IMHO the nano particles associated with successful LENR reflect a coherent quantum system that can change energy states across the particle during the correct resonant conditions created by either magnetic fields or electric fields or both. The entire system is coordinated--entangled--and changes from a greater potential energy to a greater kinetic energy or spin energy state associated with electron orbital motion and/or small bits of kinetic energy (emitted to the environment outside the material system in the form of photons and maybe neutrinos) occur. The major changes of energy in the system occur among the electrons and happen one small Planck constant of angular momentum--spin energy--at a time. This amounts to an increase of entropy for the entire system, whatever it entails. Spin waves may be involved in the conditions that allow the transitions in a given nano particle, coupling the spin energy of the nuclei with the orbital spin energy of the electrons. Spin waves for me are a new concept with no discussion of them in my physics classes as I remember. What does McCulloch say about spin waves? You probably were not trained about spin wave concepts either. You now have my outlandish (but not off the cuff) opinion.

I have read Dr. McCulloch's book and find his theory interesting. However, my training in RF gives me a different perspective on wave phenomena that doesn't seem to match up with his theory. In his theory, he drops out wavelengths of EM background radiation that would be filtered in the frequency domain due to the Rindler boundary which moves closer to the object depending on acceleration. However, in the time domain these waves would have to propagate the distances to the discontinuity and back before any cancellations could occur. The boundaries in question are huge distances away. For example, for a free fall acceleration on the Earth (9.8m/s^2), the boundary would be changed to 10 light years away. The change in inertial mass induced by an acceleration will not know of the discontinuity until twice the time to the discontinuity. That would mean that the object being accelerated at 9.8m/s^2 should not know of the boundary for at least 20 years. If the object instantaneously experienced a change in inertial mass, it would seem to violate causality by this theory. I have written to Dr. McCulloch to ask him how I get past this understanding. Do any of you have an opinion on this issue?
