Is this a coincidence or what? (No, there are no coincidences)
If you read my response to Fran, who was responding to a posting by Axil, I used the term *domino-effect*. About 90 minutes later I went and looked at the headlines at PhysOrg.com and came across this article: ========================= Record reaction cascade yields cancer drug candidate December 26, 2011 (PhysOrg.com) -- New active substances can be produced quickly and efficiently with the help of reaction cascades. Once set in motion, these processes lead to the desired end product via a series of intermediate steps which take place in one go in a single reaction vessel. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology in Dortmund have achieved a new world record in cascade synthesis: they succeeded in synthesising complex biologically active substances, Centrocountins, in twelve successive steps. These substances inhibit cell division and could provide new options for the development of antitumour drugs. The organic synthesis of complex molecules is often laborious and time-consuming. To produce such molecules, chemists usually have to carry out numerous individual processes in sequence and isolate the intermediate products each time until they finally obtain the desired end product. In contrast, reaction cascades lead to the end product considerably faster: because they involve a kind of **domino effect**, it is sufficient to provide the starting materials and initiate the first step to reach the end product via a series of successive intermediate products and steps. Because the entire cascade takes place in a single reaction vessel, the isolation of intermediate products is dispensed with and the process saves time, energy and costs. ========================= From: Mark Iverson-ZeroPoint [mailto:zeropo...@charter.net] Sent: Monday, December 26, 2011 1:28 PM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: RE: [Vo]:Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) Fran: Good point. I think the evidence supports the hypothesis that, *whatever* LENR is, it is not a single event; there are likely several different processes happening depending on what kind of system one has (e.g., electrochemical or gas-phase), and that it may also be a cascade of separate 'reactions'. If this down-conversion is happening, then perhaps the 'chain' in chain-reaction is that one or two of the many resulting separate reactions does indeed trigger another cascade; at least until it hits some unconformity which kills the domino-effect. -mark From: francis [mailto:froarty...@comcast.net] Sent: Monday, December 26, 2011 11:26 AM To: janap...@gmail.com Cc: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [Vo]:Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) Perhaps the same entanglement is responsible for the fusion such that if a seemingly low probability fusion event occurs under these circumstances then the down conversion will also occur? Two different facets of the same environmental cause? Fran Axil Axil Mon, 26 Dec 2011 08:33:20 -0800 In Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) as a process in quantum optics, a nonlinear crystal is used to split photons into pairs of other photons. The efficiency of that process is proportional to the amount of quantum mechanical entanglement that is produced by the incident laser on the nonlinear crystal lattice used to split photons into pairs of photons. The frequency at which this entanglement is produced is low as a funtion of the number of photons that are contained in the incident UV laser beam. On the other hand, we known from the copper isotopes that are produced as ash in the Rossi reactor, thanks to the analysis of both DR, Kim and Horace Heffner, almost all cold fusion nuclear reactions involve the fusion of entangled cooper pairs of protons in the nucleus of nickel atoms. So in the case of the Rossi reaction, the probability of entanglement is very high. Therefore the probability of power and frequency splitting of the radiation produced by the cold fusion nuclear reactions in the nickel lattice as well as its teleportation into the surrounding hydrogen envelope is almost certain.
