Agreed that 2-12 rules the macro geometry but smaller geometry could still appear to meet this criteria from the perspective of relativistic hydrogen atom or molecule traversing the cavity in the direction of increased confinement. I don’t know how far this nesting effect could persist but IMHO it is much easier to open an umbrella [Casimir cavity]and decrease the ether rate than it is to out run the raindrops [ virtual particles] like we see in the Paradox twins. My point is Casimir effect BETWEEN THE PLATES may be limited to this 2-12 nm range to maintain the focal length needed to accumulate force from the parallel geometry – this would maximize the force trying to pull the plates together BUT if Naudt’s is correct about the hydrino being relativistic than these free floating hydrogen gas can still utilize Casimir force between boundaries that are seemingly below this focal point in our inertial frame.. my posit is that dimensional displacement/Lorentzian contraction extends the rang of confinement these gas atoms can squeeze into by exchanging time for space… I will suggest that this is the same basic principle underlying catalytic action but more so…Epic? Hence the new term epic. Anyway if correct than the fractional hydrogen could just keep following this trajectory down the rabbit hole.. not sure if it would ever reach the point where the plates actually close or just get progressively more contracted to infinity.

Yes, the geometry is very specific – 2-12 nanometers. Higher or lower spacing is no good. In fact, buckyballs (C60) are just a bit too small to experience a Casimir effect, but some forms of CNT (nanotubes) can be part of a Casimir anomaly. For comparison purposes, a sphere of this size (diameter of 5 nanometers) could contain about 150-500 atoms. BTW - these spheres are being engineered in Labs now, and are called quantum dots, and have special electronic properties which are “apparently unrelated” to the Casimir effect, but also curious in the sense of being an inverted structure instead of pore. As it turns out – this dimensional range is also seen in a natural biological process – bioluminescence. The “firefly” effect happens because large molecules about the size of a quantum dot, interact via ions to produce photons of abnormally large energy. This process is called FRET. FRET (Forster radiant energy transfer) can be called a biological version of DCE (Dynamical Casimir) effect. This is important for LENR since there could be a non-fusion thermal anomaly which is related to FRET, and/or DCE, and which may be involved in the Sheehan papers as well. From: Jed Rothwell The “pore storage” of course invokes the dynamical Casimir effect. It can be exothermic. Would those be very small pores? I believe the Casimir effect only occurs in very small dimensions. - Jed
