I also liked his final sentence - call it tidal fission? [snip]Since these transmutations are thought to be brought about by spacetime deformation, it is possible that a heavy nuclide be ripped apart into lighter nuclides by tidal forces i.e., in more picturesque way, as an astronaut would be as he were falling into a blackhole.

From: Jones Beene [mailto:jone...@pacbell.net] Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2011 11:11 AM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: EXTERNAL: [Vo]:New paper from Cardone http://arxiv.org/abs/1103.1153 If you thought Rossi was the only wild-eyed Italian on the fringes of physics with an earth shattering discovery, think again. These guys even have mainstream credentials, no? Their earlier paper was roundly criticized for technique, but not disproved. This one will be even more divisive, so to speak. Is this related in any way to Rossi? Maybe it was premature to write-off an ultrasound input in the Rossi E-cat (especially if thermistors are being used). After all, I have been told that ultrasound in a gas-filled powder would not be audible, as it would be if there was a liquid fill. The now Italian Renaissance ... il rinascimento seconda parte !?!
