Bob , didn’t mean Casimir cavity per se but was trying to suggest the fractional hydrogen plasma loading deeper and deeper into the lattice powder inside the reactor expands into a larger area of Casimir like suppression that opposes the dilation direction of the muon. My rabbit hole was your initial post wrt to an office worker some distance from the reactor getting sunburned without explanation while techs and engineers working on the reactor remain unaffected. I was looking for some relativistic wormhole that might explain. In my initial investigation into similarity between skeletal cats of Mills and nano powders of Rossi I theorized the Casimir cavities and suppression geometry of Ni nano powders are inverses of the other and are equivalent but I prefer to take a neo Casimir perspective. When a muon with SR delayed radioactive decay intersects my proposed Casimir like plasma it is suddenly inside an inertial frame that now accelerates the decay rate in opposition to the SR velocity of the muon. As always time doesn’t change from a local perspective but there is suddenly more distance available for the muon to continue forward inside the reactor from a local perspective while the plasma seems to keep shrinking away. I think we have an odd relativistic situation where SR dilation by virtue of the muons velocity slows time AND the vacuum suppression of the reactor accelerates time COMBINE to give the muon a strange temporal vector, if this was simple polar coordinate addition the opposing temporal additions would simply cancel and spatial location remains fixed but SR is a Pythagorean relationship between velocity thru space and time while suppression is only based on geometry of the surrounding environment the particle is passing thru. There is also a distinct difference in the type of Lorentzian contraction to be considered, SR has a single axis of contraction while suppression seems to be symmetrical. My point is that this might allow for your odd prediction of a safe spatial zone immediately surrounding the reactor and muons returning from a “temporal long way round” vector to poison the remote office worker? Ok, after re-reading this is even a long shot for me but will still send so you don’t think I was suggesting the muon was traveling thru a few Casimir cavities –obviously we would have measured an anomalous decay rate a long time ago if it were that easy to deal with radioactive waste.

A muon in slow motion may have a greater chance of interaction if its energy is near the ionization energy of the atoms upon which it is incident - but this is only a small energy - less than 10eV. At higher energy, it is probably more likely that the muon is going to ionize the atom and then scatter at lower energy. The distances are so small in condensed matter that the scattering will happen rapidly and will reduce the muon to the sweet spot wherein it can interact with the chemical (electronic) structure of the next atom it meets. How would a brief passage though a Casimir geometry alter these behaviors?

IMHO catlitic action is a weak cousin to Casimir action and the longer wavelengths we consider suppressed are actually still present from the perspective of a local observer in the cavity.. the calculations of decay and distance traveled are then complicated by their Pythagorean relationship to the spacetime inside these cavities traveling distances we instwead perceive as dilation… but not just the dilation from their spatial displacement, rather the cavities push this dilation in the opposite direction and to some extent cancel? Always out on a limb, Fran
