Re: [Vo]:Patent application on Least Action Nuclear Process (LANP)
Eric, thanks for summarizing his patent for the Vortex readers. From patenting ethics point of view this is a very strange approach trying to patent something, It almost looks like a quick job, dumping his mindset. His last figure is an example of that. He is following the track of worldwide patenting with this input however, which doesn't come cheap. Maybe he has an investor that backs him financially. Axil, thanks for confirming his basics makes sense. From your previous postings I suspected that, but it's good to see confirmation.

Here is the abstract: This invention describes the Least Action Nuclear Process (LANP). What makes this process different than that occurring in LENR or cold fusion devises is the temperature at which the nuclear process occurs, about 10^70 K [edited for clarity]. The process requires an element of new physics (a far-from-equilibrium blackbody theory), a poorly understood physical process (reversible thermodynamics), and a fundamental physics principle (Principle of Least Action) to model the electrolysis process wherein nuclear reactions occur. The invention can be used to understand, modify, enhance, calculate, or model the LANP process, or to understand, modify, enhance, model, design, manufacture, or operate, LANP devices, or to propose, study, design or apply new applications of LANP technology. There's an easier-to-read version of the patent here: http://www.google.com/patents/WO2013184082A1?cl=en Some interesting details to mention: - He claims to be patenting a process (LANP), which, in his account, appears to be a natural rather than a mechanical process. The patent itself seems to consist of a description of a theory about this natural process. If we have heard elsewhere that it is dangerous to include bits of theory in a patent, he has bucked this wisdom and put all of his eggs in this basket. - He introduces a new temperature, the radiation temperature, which I believe consists of the energy flux through a surface defined between two fundamental particles, a back-and-forth sharing of energy he suggests happens trillions of times a second. The radiation temperature is conceived as a sort of near-field temperature that does not exist beyond the immediate environment of the particles being observed. - He seeks to differentiate his process from LENR by claiming that LENR is understood to occur at around 60-70 degrees celsius (in terms of the normal thermodynamic temperature), whereas LANP occurs at 10^70 K (radiation temperature). The reason we think LENR (which is really LANP) is happening at lower temperatures is that the very high (radiation) temperature relates to an adiabatic process that has no traces outside of the electrolytic cell. - He seems to believe that all LENR is actually LANP, and that LANP is a proper replacement for LENR. - He provides a number of embodiments. The embodiments appear to be either descriptions of existing LENR electrolytic devices, or a series of theoretical steps that build upon one another, or both. - Among other things, LANP attempts to explain the lack of radioactive byproducts by affecting selection rules. At a high level, I get the sense that he wants to differentiate LANP from LENR, while simultaneously replacing it with LANP, and then patent well-known LENR techniques under the new acronym. I only skimmed the patent, so I might have been mistaken on this point or missed something interesting.

Any interest in helping predict earthquakes? It'll only take a minute. An engineer named Eric Dollard (who was discussed here a few years ago) is re-building a seismic early warning system based on Tesla technology. The previous version narrowly predicted the Fukushima earthquake-tsunami event... before being lost to a real estate scam. But earthquakes are a huge danger for anyone on the Pacific coast, so he's rebuilding. You can lend a hand by supporting the indiegogo crowdfunding campaign below. (I have absolutely zero financial or other interest in this, FYI.) http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/eric-dollards-advanced-seismic-warning-system The system uses Tesla's electrostatic principle, it does NOT use electromagnetic signals. And like I said, it already worked great for several years the last time it was built. (This time they have support from the government, so people might listen when it says to duck and cover.)
Re: EXTERNAL: Re: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
gammas and xrays won't (as far as I know) turn a hdyrino into a hydrogen through ionization, but a cosmic ray (a high energy particle) *can* ionize a hyrino and turn it into a hydrogen when it recaptures some other electron. In Mills's theory, energy transfer to the catalyst (by bond breakage, electron ionization, kinetic energy) is done by Forster resonant energy transfer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%B6rster_resonance_energy_transfer look at page 47-51 of this pdf I created: http://zhydrogen.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/BLP-presentation.pdf quoting text from it: Forster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) in Blacklight Power’s technology Monatomic hydrogen, the donor, transfers some integer multiple of 27.2 eV to acceptor (ie. 27.2, 54.4, 81.6, 108.8 eV etc). Energy comes from energy holes of 27.2 eV in hydrogen. Acceptor is a molecule or atom that has bond dissociation or electron ionization energy that exactly sums to an integer multiple of 27.2 eV. Forster Resonance Energy Transfer Radiationless, coulombic dipole/dipole energy transfer. Amount of energy transfer varies inversely with distance to 6th power such that it only occurs over very short distances, typically 2 -10 nm. Examples of FRET FRET transfer process occurs in phosphors that contain manganese and antimony ions resulting in a strong luminescence from the manganese. Older generations of mercury fluorescent light bulbs used this process. Molecular tags that luminesce in a FRET process are used in determining biological and chemical processes.

To resolve this problem, it was assumed that radiation could occur only at specific wavelengths. Upon this foundation an edifice was created which has many problems which theorists simply get used to. Mills study with Haus at MIT led him to new criteria for non-radiation based on the orbitsphere model and the work of Maxwell. It also led him to the possibility of extracting energy from hydrogen atoms by catalysis, which he has demonstrated many times. GUTCP is Mills’ attempt to apply his insight to the great problems of physics. I expect that it will be debated for decades, possibly leading to new insights.

Jeff, it is so refreshing to find someone in the Vo/CMNS who has read Mills work carefully enough to understand what is going on, instead of mindless whacks based on a press release. Thanks for finding the Wikipedia discussion of the Forster energy transfer. Mills had cited it in earlier writings to show that the phenomenon was known to mainstream chemistry, and not a figment of his imagination. However, the Forster analysis is based on electromagnetic dipoles whose effect depends on orientation and very close proximity. If you examine some of visualizations of the orbitsphere, Mills shows magnetic field lines extending from the orbitspehere from the circulating currents. The influence of a proximate catalyst energy hole may distort the fields to effect the energy transfer. A dipole nay not be necessary. My own intuition, for what it is worth, is that Mills has not himself fully elucidated what happens. That may be a subject for generations of Ph.D. candidates. In the same vein, Mills now states that a H atom consists of an electro, a proton, and a photon. The usual description of a photon is a propagating wave packet of interlocked magnetic and electrostatic fields.. It is difficult; to picture such stuffed into an orbitsphere. I think language fails to describe Nature here, but Mills intuition nay remain a useful guide.

There is no doubt the tests were accurate – it is the interpretation that can vary. ESCA is now known as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and is accomplished by capturing spectra obtained by irradiating a material with a monochromatic beam of relatively soft X-rays. In this case, the results seem to support some of Mills theory but not all of it. The Lehigh University testing in fact finds NO 27.2 eV signature, as Mills theory suggests. However, XPS does find the a 55 eV signal/signature, which is close to Mills’ theoretical signature for the hydrino, which is supposed to be 54.4 eV but not exact. However, the XPS device is in fact capable of showing an exact signature, but none is found. Mike Carrel has also mentioned that Mills has lately dropped efforts to find the lower Rydberg signature in favor of the H(1/4). What Mike failed to mention is that the reason for this change in strategy is that BLP HAS NEVER BEEN ABEL TO SHOW THE 27.2 SIGNATURE… and if one is mildly skeptical of Mills, this can be viewed as a disaster since the higher energy signal is itself off target. In fact, it is clear to me that the Mills theory cannot be accurate, given the independent testing, and that there is no signal at the all-important level of 27.2 eV and in fact the higher level signal is itself NOT at the exact Rydberg level but is off by up to 8 percent. The bottom line is that nickel has been proven to not only produce excess energy, but to capture hydrogen in such a way that when irradiated by soft x-rays, it will emit a signature at 55 eV … and although this is close to the Rydberg multiple at 54.4 eV it is not exact, and thus the source for this signal is open to interpretation. In fact, I’ve been working on an alternative explanation for the 55 eV signal - involving the diproton reaction, (Reversible Proton Fusion) which will be presented at some point. It explains why this signature is NOT a precise Rydberg value, even though it is close - and why the signal derives from the XPS device itself (in its interaction with retained protons) – but the conclusion is that this signal is not derived from retained hydrinos being “reinflated.” Jones attachment: winmail.dat
Re: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
As far as I know, Mills's theory does not predict a continuum radiation having a cuttoff at a frequency that corresponds to a 27.2 eV for transitions that start from n = 1 (maybe fractional to fractional transition does, I don't know) see here: http://zhydrogen.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/19pn.gif And, Mills theory only has continuum radiation with a cuttoff frequency. There are no photons emitted that have a specific frequency that shows up sharply on a graph. That's why it is hard to detect hydrino photon emission during hydrino creation.

In fact, it is clear to me that the Mills theory cannot be accurate, given the independent testing, and that there is no signal at the all-important level of 27.2 eV and in fact the higher level signal is itself NOT at the exact Rydberg level but is off by up to 8 percent. The bottom line is that nickel has been proven to not only produce excess energy, but to capture hydrogen in such a way that when irradiated by soft x-rays, it will emit a signature at 55 eV … and although this is close to the Rydberg multiple at 54.4 eV it is not exact, and thus the source for this signal is open to interpretation. In fact, I’ve been working on an alternative explanation for the 55 eV signal - involving the diproton reaction, (Reversible Proton Fusion) which will be presented at some point. It explains why this signature is NOT a precise Rydberg value, even though it is close - and why the signal derives from the XPS device itself (in its interaction with retained protons) – but the conclusion is that this signal is not derived from retained hydrinos being “reinflated.” Jones -- Jeff Driscoll 617-290-1998
RE: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
Your spiel is a complete cop out. The Lehigh chart, which I have seen, shows a distinct signature. A so-called continuum with a cutoff is NOT a signature. It is a subterfuge. Mills has been frustrated over the years in being unable to show a distinct signature for the first level of redundancy (27.2) and this crap about a continuum with a cutoff is his feeble attempt to show what he cannot show otherwise - which is a real signature. He can show line broadening in the visible range - which is somewhat helpful - but you have drunk to kool-aid on this continuum with a cutoff BS as being anything other than a generalization, meaning nothing.

RE: [Vo]:Steven Krivit : Federal Investigations Reveal Academic Backstabbing at Purdue University.
Thanks for pointing out the NET article, Alain. I recall a number of private conversations I had with Steve Krivit concerning the Tsoukalas vs. Taleyarkhan investigation. This was during a time when I was still on Krivit's BoD. (I was on the NET BoD for approximately 3-4 months and ending around May of 2010.) From what I had read Taleyarkhan did seem to have gotten the short end of a splintered stick. Meanwhile, Tsoukalas' professional behavior during the same time period struck me as less than stellar. Let me put it this way to the Vort Collective: I would not have wanted Tsoukalas to have been my boss. The whole affair is a fascinating account. I would encourage the curious to read up on it. It can occasionally read like a juicy soap opera spiced with questionable ethical behavior both on and off the court. I have said this before and I will say it again. Steve Krivit does have the capacity to perform excellent hard-hitting investigative work. I think Krivit's investigations into the Taleyarkhan affair is an example of what Krivit got more right than wrong. The following assessment is most certainly anecdotal and totally derived out of my own flawed opinions: Krivit gives me the impression that he excels at digging up dirt on others. If dirt really exists, such as in the Taleyarkhan account, Krivit is likely to exhume the remains and expose everything in full Technicolor. Unfortunately, if the interpretation of wrong-doing exists primarily within Krivit's personal perceptions, such as in the M4 investigations that alleged McKubre had misrepresented his experimental findings, Krivit is more in danger of coming across as something akin to a stringer for the National Enquirer - as perceived by those who may disagree with his conclusions. One of the principal reasons I resigned from the NET BoD was because I eventually came to the opinion that I flatly disagreed with Krivit's M4 conclusions - that along with Krivit's personal handling of himself on a radio interview where he implied that McKubre had lied about the M4 data. Krivit never came out and deliberately stated on that radio show that McKubre had lied. Krivit left that to the talk show host to state for the record. Krivit left no doubt in the audience's mind that that is precisely what he wanted the listeners to conclude as well. Putting a positive spin on this whole affair, sometimes the good guy does finish last. In this case, Tsoukalas is out of the picture while I gather Taleyarkhan, even if his professional reputation for the moment remains a tad frayed, still has his job at Purdue. That pretty much tells me everything I need to know about who really held on to his mojo and who couldn't.

thank you Peter, Are there any more groups that you know replicated Mills's work - besides Rowan? The link above shows the authors to be H Conrads, R Mills and Th Wrubel, so Mills was involved but it was done outside of BLP laboratories (I assume). here is the abstract from the link you gave: A hydrogen plasma with intense extreme ultraviolet and visible emission was generated from low pressure hydrogen gas (0.1–1 mbar) in contact with a hot tungsten filament only when the filament heated a titanium dissociator coated with K2CO3 above 750°C. The electric field strength from the filament was about 1 V cm−1, two orders of magnitude lower than the starting voltages measured for gas glow discharges. The emission of the Hαand H β transitions as well as the Lα and Lβ transitions were recorded and analysed. The plasma seemed to be far from thermal equilibrium, and no conventional mechanism was found to explain the formation of a hydrogen plasma by incandescently heating hydrogen gas in the presence of trace amounts of K2CO3. The temporal behaviour of the plasma was recorded via hydrogen Balmer alpha line emission when all power into the cell was terminated and an excessive afterglow duration (2 s) was observed. The plasma was found to be dependent on the chemistry of atomic hydrogen with potassium since no plasma formed with Na2CO3 replacing K2CO3 and the time constant of the emission following the removal of all of the power to the cell matched that of the cooling of the filament and the resulting shift from atomic to molecular hydrogen. Our results indicate that a novel chemical power source is present and that it forms the energetic hydrogen plasma that is a potential new light source.

RE: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
Hi Peter, There is no reason to delve into unknown physical processes when there is a well known alternative way to test for a signature of hydrino redundancy. This was in fact performed in the Lehigh work. It is obvious and it could be done by Mills today, except for the fact that oops . it does not show anything helpful. There was no signature below 55 eV in the Lehigh testing and there was NO CONTINUM either. The very foundation of Mills' theory rests on the Hartree value of 27.2 eV. This is mentioned at the core of every Patent application which Mills' has file. The issue of a continuum energy was a late addition which has been based on the fact that there is no signature where there should be one. The fact that Mills cannot demonstrate a signature at this Hartree value has - in recent years forced him to retreat into another mode that he can defend since it is basically (s you say) an unknown physical process - which is this continuing spectrum. I think that it is a cop-out - pain and simple. I think the demo will be an insult to anyone without a financial interest in BLP - which is all of the yes men which will be in attendance. Ask Mills for permission that one skeptic attend - LOL. Mills goes into full retreat mode.

To resolve this problem, it was assumed that radiation could occur only at specific wavelengths. Upon this foundation an edifice was created which has many problems which theorists simply get used to. Mills study with Haus at MIT led him to new criteria for non-radiation based on the orbitsphere model and the work of Maxwell.

I recall a number of private conversations I had with Steve Krivit concerning the Tsoukalas vs. Taleyarkhan investigation. This was during a time when I was still on Krivit's BoD. (I was on the NET BoD for approximately 3-4 months and ending around May of 2010.) From what I had read Taleyarkhan did seem to have gotten the short end of a splintered stick. Meanwhile, Tsoukalas' professional behavior during the same time period struck me as less than stellar. Let me put it this way to the Vort Collective: I would not have wanted Tsoukalas to have been my boss. The whole affair is a fascinating account. I would encourage the curious to read up on it. It can occasionally read like a juicy soap opera spiced with questionable ethical behavior both on and off the court. I have said this before and I will say it again. Steve Krivit does have the capacity to perform excellent hard-hitting investigative work. I think Krivit's investigations into the Taleyarkhan affair is an example of what Krivit got more right than wrong. The following assessment is most certainly anecdotal and totally derived out of my own flawed opinions: Krivit gives me the impression that he excels at digging up dirt on others. If dirt really exists, such as in the Taleyarkhan account, Krivit is likely to exhume the remains and expose everything in full Technicolor. Unfortunately, if the interpretation of wrong-doing exists primarily within Krivit's personal perceptions, such as in the M4 investigations that alleged McKubre had misrepresented his experimental findings, Krivit is more in danger of coming across as something akin to a stringer for the National Enquirer – as perceived by those who may disagree with his conclusions. One of the principal reasons I resigned from the NET BoD was because I eventually came to the opinion that I flatly disagreed with Krivit’s M4 conclusions – that along with Krivit’s personal handling of himself on a radio interview where he implied that McKubre had lied about the M4 data. Krivit never came out and deliberately stated on that radio show that McKubre had “lied”. Krivit left that to the talk show host to state for the record. Krivit left no doubt in the audience’s mind that that is precisely what he wanted the listeners to conclude as well. Putting a positive spin on this whole affair, sometimes the good guy does finish last. In this case, Tsoukalas is out of the picture while I gather Taleyarkhan, even if his professional reputation for the moment remains a tad frayed, still has his job at Purdue. That pretty much tells me everything I need to know about who really held on to his mojo and who couldn't.

The bottom line is that nickel has been proven to not only produce excess energy, but to capture hydrogen in such a way that when irradiated by soft x-rays, it will emit a signature at 55 eV … and although this is close to the Rydberg multiple at 54.4 eV it is not exact, and thus the source for this signal is open to interpretation.

RE: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
Hello Peter, Here is the citation on the LENR site. The fact that it is an older paper should not diminish the fact that it was in Mills’ interest to ignore both the results and the Lehigh technique. https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/GernertNnascenthyd.pdf https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/GernertNnascenthyd.pdfsa=Uei=e0DdUq3AIsTgyQHUyoGIAgved=0CAYQFjAAclient=internal-uds-cseusg=AFQjCNG_00ZwiWP5nfDF2NVjs0l9AOKQmQ sa=Uei=e0DdUq3AIsTgyQHUyoGIAgved=0CAYQFjAAclient=internal-uds-cseusg=AFQjCNG_00ZwiWP5nfDF2NVjs0l9AOKQmQ As Dave immediately recognized – this is the obvious way that one validates a redundant ground state. The reason that Mills does not now do validation in this way could be because he realizes that it does not really validate his contention well enough - that there are various progressive steps in redundancy. Plus the value is not exactly the predicted value, and it is off by a significant fraction (55 eV instead of 54.4 eV). At the time that slight variation seemed to be within acceptable limits, and in fact Thermacore said it was “predicted by Mills” but now, with better testing twenty years later - the truth may be “inconvenient” … and the true value may indeed be the higher energy level number, which is not a Rydberg multiple as Mills’ theory suggests that it should be. Yes – that is an opinion and a reinterpretation - so we can leave it like that for now, and agree to disagree until more is known. Jones

RE: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
Jones, the Thermacore experiment was done before I was tracking the scene, and I believe Mills and Thermacore had gone their separate ways. You might term it a gas phase experiment because the capillary tubing was internally pressurized. The excess heat reaction occurred in an electrolytic environment with K+ ions the catalyst. For Mills it confirmed his hypothesis, but the energy density was too low to be useful. The gas phase experiments were done at about 1 Torr in a microwave-excited Evanson cavity. This provided a controllable research environment, but still not the needed energy density, which led to solid catalysts. There H and a catalyst are intimate until an activation temperature is reached. An early system based on this was verified at Rowan University with cooperation of the chemistry department.

[Vo]:The published critics on LENR calorimetries
After reading Beaudette's book (Excess Heat) I would like to list, details the critics that were published on LENR calorimetries. Forget about theory, neutrons, isotopic shifts... just calorimetry. corrst me if I'm wrong He talk of 4 critics. 1- Nathan Lewis, who was unable to stirr his cell, unlike Fleischman. Fleischmann show it was stirring quickly, but it took 1-3 (90/92) years to make a real experiment showing with measurements the perfect stirring including near the walls. 2- Lee Hansen criticized the data reduction techniques (91). It seems good. Later he simply observed in 1995 at BYU recombination (and like Lewis) assumed it was ruining all data since the beginning... good experiment, exgagerated conclusion. Fleischman hopefully measured recombinations1%(via replaced quantity). Oriani separated gas. McKubre, Huggin, Oriani had closed cell. Moreover control cells should suffer too. Burst are hard to explain too. B Buehler at BYU like Some claim of chemical energy release, but it was ridiculous given the quantity of energy. 3-Wilson who was quite competent and raised minor corrections, not able to turn down the biggest results. Beaudette recognize he was the only competent, yet overstating his findings. In a way he have also conformed many assumption of Fleischmann (no stirring needed). Papers (3) are said good by beaudette, peer-reviewed. reinterpreted without the assumptions, it is a confirmation of reality, and canceling of many critics. Minor question on data reduction critics, which cannot rule out a big result. 4-Morrison critics in 1994 was according to Beaudette a misunderstanding, and Morrison when facing details did not answer. beside what was written there was some demand of control experiment... many asked light water, but it was not really identical for calorimetry. Fleischmann proposed dead palladium, or palladium. (who, was it expressed?). Some says that inactive period, before of after burst were blank period. I notice that if as some says there was no positive, but there was huge changes, it was meaning either negative energy, or huge storage above chemical possibility... as an engineer I would be enthusiast to find a possibility to store and free energy at that density? why if they believed they fairy tale, don't they try to make an industry of that ? (sorry not to be scientific) I remember of CCS theory but it does not match burst events, blank cells, dead cells, good calibration of some cell like McKubre isotherm cells... Maybe some could add some detail about that recent critic Shanahan had other critics, and I found a rebuttal on many claims, from electrolysis to iwamura and mizuno styles... What I would like is detailed rebuttal, references, but als detaile recognition of problems ... If one would have to make a magazine with the serious critics and their rebuttal and confirmation, what would be in ? the booklet any hones skeptic should have!
Re: [Vo]:Understanding BLP
I've had a chance to read Jeff's helpful slides [1] and have some questions. But first I want to make sure I've gotten the basic points right. Here is my current understanding of Mills's theory (there are several related ones going around). I am trying to understand the main points of Mills's explanation as he presents it, rather than modifications that have been made to it by others (without saying anything about the usefulness of such modifications). Please correct any details I have gotten wrong. - A hydrino is a form of monoatomic hydrogen in which the electron has entered a redundant state, below the ground state (n=1). Redundant levels include 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, etc., all the way to 1/137, which is (approximately) the fine structure constant. - A hydrino is formed when the monoatomic hydrogen donor encounters a catalytic acceptor. - Acceptors are atoms or molecules that have a bond dissociation energy or a combined ionization energy of one or more of their electrons that is a multiple of 27.2 eV. Acceptors include water, which accepts either through bond dissociation, or through the ionization of three electrons, receiving as a result 81.6 = 3*27.2 eV; and a potassium atom, whose first three ionization energies are 4.3407 + 31.63 + 45.806 = 81.7 eV = 3*27.2 eV. - This transfer of energy to the acceptor is radiationless, in the sense that it only has effects in the near field, and it is accomplished via Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET). - When a hydrino is formed, not only is energy passed on to the acceptor via FRET, there is also an emission of photons in a broadband spectrum, which is bounded on one end by a well-defined cutoff. This second manner of transferring energy to the environment via broadband photon emission is due to the electron spiraling down to the new redundant energy level. - When an electron moves down to the lowest redundant level, 1/137, it becomes a photon. - The orbit of an electron at a given redundant level is described by an orbitsphere. The orbitsphere has a dipole moment, in which charge is concentrated in some parts of it more than others. This provides the basis for an alternative explanation for the Stern-Gerlach experiment, in which a spin quantum number was inferred for the electron by the clean bifurcation of silver atoms against a target under the influence of an inhomogeneous magnetic field, in contrast to a continuous distribution against the target, which is what would have been expected if there were no electron spin. - The orbitsphere describes the orbits of both redundant and non-redundant electron levels. All levels are thin and spherical in shape, in contrast to the large variety of electron clouds proposed in the atomic orbital model that is in wide use today. - Hydrinos are a possible explanation for dark matter, to which gravitational lensing and the fast angular momentum of certain galaxies is attributed. - Once a hydrino has formed, light does not generally interact with it, and it effectively becomes invisible. The hydrino continues to have mass and, hence, gravitational effects. - There are no characteristic peaks in spectra capturing the production of hydrinos, apart from those expected from the ionization of the acceptor. The generation of hydrinos must be inferred from the heat they impart to the catalyst and from the broadband distribution and predicted cutoff seen in spectra. Have I messed anything up? To what extent is the preceding account that of Mills, and to what extent has it been modified, either intentionally by others, or unintentionally by me?

Re: [Vo]:Understanding BLP
I agree with you, Jones. The hydrino or something like it allows LENR to occur. The only variation in the various theories comes from how this special state functions. Mills focuses only on creation of the state, not its role in LENR, as you note. He took this stand early even though he saw and reported tritium production because he did not want to get sucked in the rejection hole into which LENR had fallen. The only information of value is the recipe used to make energy. This recipe is guided by theory but the theory can not be patented so people cannot be stopped from using it as a guide to find better recipes. Mills and people in the LENR field all suffer from the same problem. They are addicted to their theory. If the theory is close to reality, they can make progress. However, most theories are not close to reality. Mills has a method that works up to a point. But, as you note as well, his theory, although impressive, has prevented him from finding the best recipe so far. Nevertheless, he has discovered some interesting behavior, just as LENR has done. The race is on to find out how these behaviors can be applied. I think LENR is ahead of the game because the important behaviors have been made public, not hidden as Mills has done. Rossi is ahead because he has applied these behaviors even though he does not understand their meaning. In contrast, Mills claims to understand the meaning, but is having a hard time finding an effective application. Perhaps this time he has. Only time will tell. When the smoke clears, I expect only one mechanism will be operating in both energy generators.

The electric field strength from the filament was about 1 V cm−1, two orders of magnitude lower than the starting voltages measured for gas glow discharges. The emission of the H� and H� transitions as well as the L� and L� transitions were recorded and analysed. The plasma seemed to be far from thermal equilibrium, and no conventional mechanism was found to explain the formation of a hydrogen plasma by incandescently heating hydrogen gas in the presence of trace amounts of K2CO3. The temporal behaviour of the plasma was recorded via hydrogen Balmer alpha line emission when all power into the cell was terminated and an excessive afterglow duration (2 s) was observed. The plasma was found to be dependent on the chemistry of atomic hydrogen with potassium since no plasma formed with Na2CO3 replacing K2CO3 and the time constant of the emission following the removal of all of the power to the cell matched that of the cooling of the filament and the resulting shift from atomic to molecular hydrogen. Our results indicate that a novel chemical power source is present and that it forms the energetic hydrogen plasma that is a potential new light source.

Re: EXTERNAL: Re: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
Jeff, I would be very surprised if the atom did not radiate energy under the conditions demonstrated in your second link. A distant observer would see an E field that is changing direction back and forth at the rotation rate. This is exactly the behavior expected from a short dipole radiator. If Mills used an approximation to derive the lack of radiation, then it would be quite easy to neglect the small term that demonstrates the radiation. The reason being that this tiny term goes to zero in the limiting case as the charge rotation speed goes to zero. A very slow charge distribution rotation rate is easy to assume to be unimportant and not radiating and, in fact, it is a very poor antenna. Unfortunately, any amount of radiation is too much, so the charge must not be allowed to change distribution in time to obtain that goal. I suggest you look up short dipole antennas if you are interested in what I am describing. My earlier discussion of the continuous charge distribution being non radiating is valid. The information on your site showing how Mills describes his orbitspheres as being the equivalent of an infinite number of small loops would work as a non radiating design. This is true if the current through each loop is DC and not changing as you appeared to describe. Since each loop can be shown to be non radiating, the entire vector sum of all of the infinitesimal loops is also non radiating. As I also pointed out earlier, any 3 dimensional set of loops would also not radiate as long as DC current is enforced in each. This would include the S, P, D, or any other arrangement as shown with quantum mechanics. All they need to do to ensure that no radiation is emitted at a stable orbital is to force the electrons to be distributed per above instead of existing as a single moving point. If I recall correctly, those models do not attempt to track the position of the electron in time. That should be adequate provided the position of the electron is truly a probability function.

Re: EXTERNAL: Re: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
I don't understand it, but it seems to be answered here - on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonradiation_condition quoting from portions: Classical nonradiation conditions define the conditions according to classical electromagnetism under which a distribution of accelerating charges will not emit electromagnetic radiation. According to the Larmor formula in classical electromagnetism, a single point charge under acceleration will emit electromagnetic radiation, i.e. light. In some classical electron models a distribution of charges can however be accelerated so that no radiation is emitted.[1] The modern derivation of these nonradiation conditions by Hermann A. Haus is based on the Fourier components of the current produced by a moving point charge. It states that a distribution of accelerated charges will radiate if and only if it has Fourier components synchronous with waves traveling at the speed of light.[2] The nonradiation condition went largely ignored for many years. Philip Pearle reviews the subject in his 1982 article Classical Electron Models.[7] A Reed College undergraduate thesis on nonradiation in infinite planes and solenoids appears in 1984.[8] An important advance occurred in 1986, when Hermann Haus derived Goedeke’s condition in a new way.[2] Haus finds that all radiation is caused by Fourier components of the charge/current distribution that are lightlike (i.e. components that are synchronous with light speed). When a distribution has no lightlike Fourier components, such as a point charge in uniform motion, then there is no radiation. Haus uses his formulation to explain Cerenkov radiation in which the speed of light of the surrounding medium is less than c. Randell Mills uses the nonradiation condition as the foundation for his model of the hydrogen atom, in which the electron is a two-dimensional extended membrane of negative charge that is stable according to this condition.[9] Mills' model is controversial and not accepted by the scientific community, which currently accepts the theory of quantum mechanics in which the electron does not need to obey classical physics. and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermann_A._Haus On Mon, Jan 20, 2014 at 7:48 PM, David Roberson dlrober...@aol.com wrote: Jeff, I would be very surprised if the atom did not radiate energy under the conditions demonstrated in your second link.

Since each loop can be shown to be non radiating, the entire vector sum of all of the infinitesimal loops is also non radiating. As I also pointed out earlier, any 3 dimensional set of loops would also not radiate as long as DC current is enforced in each. This would include the S, P, D, or any other arrangement as shown with quantum mechanics. All they need to do to ensure that no radiation is emitted at a stable orbital is to force the electrons to be distributed per above instead of existing as a single moving point. If I recall correctly, those models do not attempt to track the position of the electron in time. That should be adequate provided the position of the electron is truly a probability function.

Secrets, what secrets? He has published profusely. What may be withheld is know-how to optimize performance. There is a pervasive disbelief in his findings and an itch to 'improve' on his methods and surprise when his results are not seen. I have been at pains in my recent posts to identify the core problem in devising an application device. Apparently it is simply not seen or understood.

[Vo]:Mills's theory
I tried to summarize a few reasons why I believe Randell Mills's theory of the atom. == For decades, physicists have struggled with how to interpret the fine structure constant, alpha = 1/137.035999 Physicist Richard Feynman said this decades ago: “It has been a mystery ever since it was discovered more than fifty years ago, and all good theoretical physicists put this number up on their wall and worry about it.” Feynman also said: ”It’s one of the greatest damn mysteries of physics: A magic number with no understanding by man” In my view, the value of the fine structure constant is explained by Randell Mills’s model of the hydrogen atom. In Mills’s model, the principal quantum number n can take on fractional values with the smallest being n =1/137. For purposes of the following energy calculations, assume an electron is orbiting around the proton in a stable orbit at the principal quantum number n = 1/137.035999 (i.e. the fine structure constant, alpha) and has a radius R based on Mills's theory. An electron orbiting at this radius R has the following 5 energy calculations related to it and they *all* equal exactly 510998.896 eV or the rest mass of the electron (this is to 9+ significant digits!). The energy equations are: 1. Resonant energy of the vacuum for a sphere having radius R. 2. Capacitive energy of a sphere having radius R. 3. Magnetic energy for an electron orbiting a proton on the infinite number of great circles (as described by Mills) on the surface of a sphere having radius R. 4. Planck equation energy for a photon having a wavelength that matches a sphere having radius R. 5. Electric potential energy for an electron evaluated at infinity relative to a sphere having radius R with a proton at the center. The amazing thing is that these 5 energy equations above are classical, meaning no quantum theory is involved and it uses Newtonian dynamics and Maxwell’s equations. The 5 energy equations are exactly the same as found in physics textbooks. The energy equations are related to Mills's Pair Production (where a photon is converted into an electron) and to have an organized, logical theory have such a coincidence where they all equal the rest mass of the electron would be impossible in my view. Mills's equations for the radius of the orbiting electron can be derived using the same methods as Niels Bohr but with slightly different postulates. 1. Bohr postulated that the momentum of the electron was equal to the principal quantum number multiplied by the reduced Planck constant for all stable orbits. Mills postulates that the momentum of the electron is equal to *only* the reduced Planck constant at all stable orbits (i.e. it is not a function of principal quantum number). 2. Bohr postulated that the electric charge experienced by the electron due to the proton is equal to e (the elementary charge) for all stable orbits. Mills postulates that the electric charge experienced by the electron due to the proton *and* the trapped photon is equal to e/n or the elementary charge divided by the principal quantum number for all stable orbits. You can find out more about Randell Mills's theory at my website here: http://zhydrogen.com Side note: Mills's lowest allowed orbit is 1/137 not 1/137.035999 and (I think) the difference between the two numbers is related to a small magnetic interaction between the electron and the proton. You can see more detail in Mills's book, Grand Unified Theory of Classical Physics (GUTCP) which is streamed here: http://www.blacklightpower.com/theory-2/book/book-download/
Re: EXTERNAL: Re: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
Eric, if you are asking me this question, I would refer most of it to the Mills experts. I am sorry if I mixed up the quantum theory with Mills' theory in that post. I was attempting to explain how the probabilistic location and movement of electrons according to quantum mechanics is non radiating. As long as an observer at the far field locations does not detect a change in the E or H field vectors as a function of time, then no radiation will be generated. Begin with a DC current flowing within a loop of wire and you will see that at a far off location the H field remains constant for all time. No change generally means no radiation. Of course, there exists a constant value which leads to the magnetic field due to the loop current. Note that this is also at a zero radian per second rate if expressed in frequency terms. If you look into the situation further, you will realize that any 3 dimensional current path is non radiational provided the current flows at a constant rate at every point along the structure. Charges will be accelerated in most wire configurations, but no radiation is generated. The S,P,D, and any other orbital shapes can be accommodated.

Re: [Vo]:Mills's theory
I, like you would greatly appreciate a theory that is more classical and deterministic. But, there is a great deal of human intellect and energy involved in quantum theory and we must be careful before it can be abandoned. It is our task to remain skeptical of a new theory and subject it to proper scrutiny. For this reason I am asking questions that I assume will have direct answers. I am confident that there are many other vorts that share my concerns. If the theory is valid, it will stand up to any test that we can subject it to. Mills should appreciate the opportunity that is before him to prove his assertions. One question comes up immediately from what you have just written about the fine structure constant. Why does the electron in that particular orbitsphere travel at the speed of light without any apparent increase of mass? I would anticipate that the momentum or energy calculations would be seriously impacted once that speed is approached. Special Relativity appears to work well in every case that I have analyzed and I wonder how it comes into play with Mills theory? I guess I would like to understand how the 1/137 orbitsphere is affected by special relativity considerations? I suspect that the number would be modified to something like 1/135 for example. Any comment?

Re: [Vo]:PESN: Mills explains upcoming BLP demo
I am very impressed. My initial suspicion has been bolstered that Mills has developed a new version of the Papp engine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wankel_engine It is a Wankel engine variation that has 60 reaction spaces that fire at 200 times a minute. That is a firing rate of 12,000 pulses/minute, as compared to 500 for the Papp engine. The fuel produces nanoparticles that are super ionized by the arc where only the innermost electrons of the crystal remain unaffected in their atomic orbits. From Papp technology, there is little heat produced by the reaction: almost complete photo ionization of the potassium and hydrogen nanoparticles. Milles most probably is using potassium carbonate as the catalyst because it has the proper engineering characteristics to produce nanoparticles. Even though Papp technology is open source, the Mills engine design is original and innovative so his intellectual property claim might hold up. Here is a snippet from Papp engine theory that explains the basics of the power production principles. Remember that water and potassium can produce solid nanoparticles just like noble gases do. --- *Where does the explosive force come from?* The force produced in the Papp engine comes from the explosion of these clusters of gas and water atoms under the excitation of ultraviolet and x-rays. As the energy of this EMF goes up so does the explosive power of the clusters. When TNT explodes, the mass of the expanding gas is high but the speed of the associated shockwave is relatively low. On the other hand, the shockwave produced in the Papp cluster explosion reaction is some appreciable fraction of the speed of light even if the mass of the gas ions involved in the cluster fragment expansion is small when compared to what happens in a chemical based explosion. Even with these large differences in the parameters in the equation of force, the forces produced in these two dissimilar reactions; that is, between chemical explosion and electromagnetic shockwave generation as a product of the mass and velocity is similar in magnitude. The more a cluster is ionized, the easier it is for x-ray photons to further ionize additional electrons in that cluster. Energy levels in bulk materials are significantly different from materials in the nanoscale. Let’s, put it this way: Adding energy to a confined system such as a cluster is like putting a tiger in a cage. A tiger in a big zoo with open fields will act more relaxed, because he has a lot of room to wander around. If you now confine him in smaller and smaller areas, he gets nervous and agitated. It's a lot that way with electrons. If they're free to move all around through a metal, they have low energy. Put them together in a cluster and beam x-rays on them, they get very excited and try to get out of the structure. In getting to the breaking point, when the ionized cluster eventually reaches an ionization limit where the remaining electrons cannot sustain the structural integrity of the cluster any longer, an explosive disintegration of the cluster and subsequent plasma expansion of the positive ions and electrons which once formed the cluster occurs. Multi-electron ionization of molecules and clusters can be realized by photoionization of strong x-ray photons. The multi-electron ionization leads to an explosive disintegration of the cluster together with the production of multi-charged atomic ions fragments. The kinetic energy of the product ions formed by this explosion is of the order of several or tens eV in a diatomic, hundreds of eV in small van der Waals(VDW) clusters, and 100 KeV to 1 MeV in large (n 1000) VDW clusters. What causes this accelerating weakening of the structure under the onslaught of x-ray photons radiation is “barrier suppression ionization”. The initial arrival of x-ray photons begin the formation of plasma that is localized within the cluster itself. The electrons initially dislodged by the x-ray photons orbit around the outside of the cluster. These electrons lower the coulomb barrier holding the electrons that remain orbiting the cluster’s inner atoms. These remaining electrons reside in the inner orbits closer in to the nuclei of their atoms. Excess electric negative charge in the gas carrying the clusters will also add to the suppression of the coulomb barrier further supporting cascading cluster ionization. Papp uses every trick in the book to pack as many electrons in the noble gas mix as he possibly can. When enough electrons are removed, the structure of the cluster cannot sustain itself any longer and the cluster explodes. In order to take advantage of the energy produced by “barrier suppression ionization”, the designers of the Papp reaction must satisfy two main engineering goals: first, large noble gas clusters must be formulated, and two, copious amounts of high energy x-ray photons must be produced. *Where Excess Power Comes From*
Re: [Vo]:PESN: Mills explains upcoming BLP demo
The reason that Papp moved away from water to noble gases was the corrosive nature of water on his cylinder. This corrosion be a serious problem for Mills. His machine will not function for long due to structural degradation in his reaction spaces. Experiments using hydrogen in the Papp cylinder resulted in a black powder formation after a very short running time. No such problem was seen using helium.

Re: [Vo]:PESN: Mills explains upcoming BLP demo
Not every photon which encounters an atom or ion will photoionize it. The probability of photoionization is related to the photoionization cross-section, which depends on the energy of the photon and the target being considered. For photon energies below the ionization threshold, the photoionization cross-section is near zero. But with the development of pulsed lasers it has become possible to create extremely intense, coherent light where multi-photon ionization may occur. At even higher intensities (around 1015 - 1016 W/cm2 of infrared or visible light), non-perturbativehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-perturbativephenomena such as *barrier suppression ionization* and *rescattering ionization* are observed. I I suggest that Mills add some chlorine and/or helium to his concoction to provide more powerful x-ray production from his spark.
