Negative energy means that there are negative temperatures and
reactions which generate heat in our world create negative energy in

In consideration of the recent posting regarding converting light into
mass, the upper limit of energy density is set by the speed of light
at 2.5 x 10^13 Wh/kg.  Although the scientists have not actually
converted photons to electrons and positrons, a controlled reverse
process can be conceived which could achieve the upper limit.  Such
process would not necessarily involve any nucleus.

(Submitted on 17 Oct 2013)

In the last years several theoretical papers discussed if time can be
an emergent property deriving from quantum correlations. Here, to
provide an insight into how this phenomenon can occur, we present an
experiment that illustrates Page and Wootters' mechanism of static
time, and Gambini et al. subsequent refinements. A static, entangled
state between a clock system and the rest of the universe is perceived
as evolving by internal observers that test the correlations between
the two subsystems. We implement this mechanism using an entangled
state of the polarization of two photons, one of which is used as a
clock to gauge the evolution of the second: an internal observer
that becomes correlated with the clock photon sees the other system
evolve, while an external observer that only observes global
properties of the two photons can prove it is static.

will do all he can to combine Dekflaion LENR technology and CYPW's

investment.
