Hi,

Now that you are using vacuum deposition, you might try any of the transition 
metals on a graphene base.
In particular, Nickel, Iron, or Titanium, all of which interact with Hydrogen, 
and Nickel in particular is used as a
catalyst in organic chemistry.

A metal plate containing millions of square pits, each 45.589 nm on a side, 
that is exposed to Hydrogen gas, may emit
electrons with a maximum energy of 40.8 eV minus the work function of the

on an anode to drive an external current between the anode and the metal plate.

Alternatively, the plate just gets hot and can function as part of a boiler.

A few comments:-

1) I seem to recall someone else having used Calcium Oxide before.

2) Perhaps unrelated, but 36 microns is the wavelength of a photon with an 
energy of 0.034 eV. If this is divided by the
fine structure constant (alpha) we get an energy of 4.72 eV which is slightly 
larger than the dissociation energy of the
H2 molecule. (This may explain why the Calcium Oxide crystal can't be larger 
than 36 microns.)
A further division by alpha yields 646.745 eV which is close to the value that 
Prof. Leif Holmlid associates with what
he calls H0.

3) I saw somewhere on the Net, that someone showed that the masses of 
fundamental particles are linked by the fine
structure constant. Perhaps alpha is the size reduction you get when you wrap a 
photon into a self reinforcing
structure?

[Vo]:Claytor paper presented at NSF/EPRI Workshop in 1989

2023-11-27 Thread Jed Rothwell
I uploaded an early paper by Claytor:

Claytor, T.N., et al. *Tritium and neutron measurements of a solid state
cell*. in *NSF/EPRI Workshop on Anomalous Effects in Deuterated Materials*.
1989. Washington, DC.

https://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ClaytorTNtritiumand.pdf

Abstract


A solid state "cold fusion" cell was constructed to test for
nonequilibrium D-D fusion in a solid. The stimulus for the design was the
hypothesis that the electrochemical surface layer in the Pons -Fleischmann
cell could be replaced with a metal- insulator-semiconductor (MIS) barrier.
Cells were constructed of alternating layers of palladium and silicon
powders pressed into a ceramic form and exposed to deuterium gas at 110
psia , resulting in a D/Pd ratio of 0.7. Pulses of current were passed
through the cells to populate nonequilibrium states at the MIS barriers.
One cell showed neutron activity and had a large amount of tritium. Other
cells have produced tritium at a low rate consistent with neutron emission
at or below the threshold of observability. The branching ratio for n/p was
about 3 x 10^-9 in all the experiments where a substantial amount of
tritium has been found.


One of the cells produced a substantial amount of tritium:

. . . [T]ritium analysis showed that cell 2 had 1300 times the fill gas
concentration of tritium, amounting to 3.5 x 10^15 atoms of tritium. This
level, although substantially above background, is equivalent to only 65
ppb.


The NSF/EPRI Workshop is described here:

http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/EPRInsfepriwor.pdf

These experiments are also described here:

https://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ClaytorTNtritiumgen.pdf

Several other experiments produced large amounts of tritium, such as
Bockris, Storms and Will. See:

https://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WillFGtritiumgen.pdf

Skeptics ignore the tritium because it is compelling proof that cold fusion
is a nuclear reaction. They pretend that heat is not compelling, even
though it exceeds the limits of chemistry thousands of times over. They
want to claim that cold fusion does not produce clear evidence of a nuclear
reaction, even though anyone can see that it does. They mean it does not
produce the evidence *they want to see.* They are looking for proof that
cold fusion is actually plasma fusion, and it produces a deadly flux of
neutrons and no significant heat. They want that because it fits
their theories and -- more importantly -- because it means cold fusion has
no practical use, and does not threaten plasma fusion funding. Messinger
correctly described the infuriating, know-nothing attitude of the skeptics
at ARPA-E and elsewhere:

The hypothesis is that excess heat is caused by the release of nuclear
binding energy through low-energy nuclear reactions. But, as I have written
before, and ARPA-E stressed in their funding opportunity announcement, such
kind of evidence for LENR is insufficient due to the ambiguous nature of
heat . . .

2023-11-17 Thread Robin
Hi,

I have an electric heater that can be controlled to within 1/10 of a degree 
centigrade, and also temperature monitoring
software that reports the temperature.
I have noticed that early in the morning I am comfortable with a temperature of 
22ºC, but as we approach noon I need the
temperature to be about 25ºC. 
Initially, I thought this was strange because the external temperature is 
colder early in the morning.
The only explanation I can think of is that the house is well insulated and has 
a long time constant, so that early in
the morning the walls are still warm from the previous afternoon, while the air 
in the room is cool, thanks to contact
with the cooler glass window, resulting in the thermostat registering a low 
temperature, while my body still feels
comfortably warm due to thermal radiation from the walls. As the day 
progresses, the temperature of the walls drops,
forcing my body to rely more heavily on air temperature, so I need the 
temperature to be higher.

Thoughts?

Even if it is impossible to measure the one way speed of light according

light to explain the phenomenon known as stellar aberration. 
Astronomer's have been studying this phenomenon for nearly 300 years.

SR is quite a solid model as it can adequately "predict" the electron 
mass/energy in a storage ring.


I use the word solid because all current models of physics, also called 
standard model, have a very low precision (usually < 4 digits without 
fudging) and thus never can be basic models.


The problem is obvious as since more than 80 years mathematicians 
dominate physics, mostly people with no clue of real physics = experiment.


For the SOP model of mass/force structure I get 8..10 digits precision, 
what is shocking for some folks as it could first time be close to a 
basic model. Thus since about 2 years I try to educate physicists about 
the silly errors we find in all historic models (QM,QED,QCD,GR,..).


The most silly in GR is the 3 rotation anti symmetric stress energy 
tensor that is impossible for real mass As as said most 
mathematicians missed basic physics - here rotor mechanics. Once you 
know the basics you no longer can take serious most peoples in the field.

Even if it is impossible to measure the one way speed of light according 
to Einstein's theory, astronomers use a specific finite one way speed of 
light to explain the phenomenon known as stellar aberration. 
Astronomer's have been studying this phenomenon for nearly 300 years. 
The amount of observed stellar aberration seems to be more accurately 
predicted by SR than by classical physics but both assume a finite one 
way velocity of light. Veritasium's conclusion has been shaped by 
experts who don't worry about the bigger picture.

Now, I guess it could be infinite if you were moving infinitely fast, 
then the speed of light the other way would be half C to make the round 
trip C.

But moving infinitely fast seems problematic.

It does more accurately predict the amount of stellar aberration.

Light, big shock, moves at a speed.

criticism of the Hafele Keating experiment is that it is cherry picking.





On March 25, 1984, Louis Essen wrote Carl Zapffe as follows: “Dear Dr. 
Zapffe, “I have enjoyed reading your entertaining book and appreciate 
your kindness in sending me a copy. You obviously did an enormous amount 
of reading for its preparation, and I have a feeling that you had a lot 
of fun writing it and did not expect a rapturous reception. I enjoyed 
writing my own little book (112 references), although it was outside my 
field of work, and I was warned that would do my reputation a lot of 
harm. My experience was rather similar to yours in securing publication, 
and I decided that the only way was to avoid references. The booklet was 
invited, as was a lecture I gave at the Royal Institution (Proceedings 
of the Royal Institution of Great Britain, vol. 45, 1971, p. 141 ff.) My 
criticisms were, of course, purely destructive, but I think the 
demolition job was fairly complete. I concluded that the theory is not a 
theory at all, but simply a number of contradictory assumptions together 
with actual mistakes. The clock paradox, for example, follows from a 
very obvious mistake in a thought experiment (in spite of the nonsense 
written by relativists, Einstein had no idea of the units and 
disciplines of measurement). There is really no more to be said about 
the paradox, but many thousands of words have been written nevertheless. 
In my view, these tend to confuse the issue. “One aspect of this subject 
which you have not dealt with is the accuracy and reliability of the 
experiments claimed to support the theory. The effects are on the border 
line of what can be measured. The authors tend to get the result 
required by the manipulation and selection of results. This was so with 
Eddington’s eclipse experiment, and also in the more resent results of 
Hafele and Keating with atomic clocks. This result was published in 
Nature, so I submitted a criticism to them. In spite of the fact that I 
had more experience with atomic clocks than anyone else, my criticism 
was 
rejected.https://beyondmainstream.org/dr-louis-essen-inventor-of-atomic-clock-rejects-einsteins-relativity-theory/

Discussing about physics needs years long reflection about what 
physical constants mean and how these interrelate and are 
measured.
A constant is an obsession and  assumption that it will continue under 
all conditions.
In the case of Light speed it is an illogical assumption if we apply 
what might be true for the 2 way speed of light is also true for the one 
way speed of light.



Also I have been thinking about this for 25 years, is that enough?



Further we must understand that all current still hyped models 
have been developed with marginal experimental knowledge.

Very true!

 If   somebody believes that e.g. QM is a fundamental model that he 
is a   member of sect not a physicist.
I think there are aspects of QM that are rather well established, but 
much less so with SR.
It seems to me that Quantum Physics is open to many different 
interpretations and really isn't dogmatic about which is true.
There is even super-determinism which seems nuts to me that takes a lot 
of the weirdness from QM.



Also the many worlds interpretation removes a lot of weirdness.



Same for GR that already Einstein in 1952 declared being a castle 
in the air. He then argued that the world is made of infinite many 
systems with their own speed of light (c) and thus any relation 
between such systems constructed by SRT/GR are fiction not 
science.

He was a lot more humble than those who continued his theories.
I wasn't aware he said that and will seek an exact quote.


The problem is the photon of which we only can measure the local 
wave number = energy in relation to local "c". Theoretically we 
could find its velocity by taking into account the red/blue shift 
but which model should we use. SRT provably only works for local 
mass but what shall we do with a photon speed of c+v?
Using red or blue shift for speed, or at least adjustments of speed is 
logical.


Though I guess it tells us nothing of the speed of the medium, that only 
cares about relative velocity between emitter and reciever.



Consequence: We have to overcome the today's silly - kindergarten 
physics models and we should start to understand the structure of 
all forms of matter. I could teach 2 term course about all 
failures and errors in current physics - models and also what for 
the models still are good and can be used.

Another idea I came across is that gravity is a result of time dilation!
This idea as it was relayed (by a believer in SR who was teaching it as 
fact.

<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKxQTvqcpSg;>



But, rather than the explanation he gives, it makes me think the 
following.  What if every bit of space emits pressure, well space would 
expand (hmmm, it seems to) and where time dilation is present there 
would be less emission!

And as such there would be a push towards such space.



Only one thing is clear, general relativity is a marginal, just 
mathematical model once the Nobel committee called unphysical. It 
is brilliant math and of no use for our real world, that urgently 
needs a new "infinite" and cheap energy source. May be even that 
is a bad idea as long as the (fascist finance) pigs have the power

A constant is an obsession and  assumption that it will continue under all

In the case of Light speed it is an illogical assumption if we apply what
might be true for the 2 way speed of light is also true for the one way
speed of light.

Also I have been thinking about this for 25 years, is that enough?

I think there are aspects of QM that are rather well established, but much
less so with SR.
It seems to me that Quantum Physics is open to many different
interpretations and really isn't dogmatic about which is true.
There is even super-determinism which seems nuts to me that takes a lot of
the weirdness from QM.

Also the many worlds interpretation removes a lot of weirdness.

I wasn't aware he said that and will seek an exact quote.

Using red or blue shift for speed, or at least adjustments of speed is
logical.

Though I guess it tells us nothing of the speed of the medium, that only
cares about relative velocity between emitter and reciever.

This idea as it was relayed (by a believer in SR who was teaching it as
fact.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKxQTvqcpSg;

But, rather than the explanation he gives, it makes me think the
following.  What if every bit of space emits pressure, well space would
expand (hmmm, it seems to) and where time dilation is present there would
be less emission!
And as such there would be a push towards such space.

If you ask most people, most physicists, and most
LLM's (Large Language Models) if the one way speed of
light is constant they all will say it is and that it
is part of Special Relativity (SR).
If you ask most, "how can that be", they will answer
the contraction of space and dilation of time, but if
you drill down deeper you learn that actually it
isn't, it is a postulate of the 1905 paper on Special

Well, yes in theory it could be infinite as I explained but I didn't say
that.

And I don't think it is likely to be that we are moving in effect
infinitely fast through the Aether.

What astronomers teach is an assumption.

 What the 1905 paper DOES say is essentially two key things, both
 postulates (again, postulates = assumptions typically not covered in the
 theory being presented, but the foundation of it)
 The first is that the speed of light is not affected by the velocity of
 the emitter. >>> The next is that the laws of physics are the same in all inertial
 frames. >>> speed of light to be C in all inertial frames for that.

 I thought Einstein supported the idea that the one way speed of light
 (the speed of light in each direction) is C, however he claims no such
 thing in any of his writings according to chat GPT and Claude 2.
 The 2 way speed of light being C is most assuredly believed, but the
 one way, if he believed in it he never seemingly mentioned it.
 And while I will concede that the one way (single direction) speed of
 light is impossible to measure if SR is correct, if LET, (Lorentz Ether
 Theory) is correct (which many physicists and LLM's can tell you is
 compatible with every experiment that is considered to support SR, they are
 equivalent for most things) then it becomes possible to measure the one way
 speed of light!

 If Einstein's model is taken as a cheat, an untrue but simplifying
 mechanism that makes it easier to use Lorentzian transformations without
 needing to worry how we are moving relative to the aether it is a success!
 But if we take it as the truth and even make it more extreme by
 believing the one way speed of light is C it becomes a comical nonsense!
 And we will see just how badly below.

 But let's see how we got here!

 Light, big shock, moves at a speed.
 And speeds can be viewed as relative to our own inertial frame making
 it relative not absolute, for this NOT to be so there would have to be some
 explanation how this might not be but again there is no mechanism by which
 this could be done, it wasn't assumed by SR or Einstein in his papers
 therefore the one way speed of light can't be said to be absolute and
 therefore it is relative even if the 2 way speed of light is absolute.
 And so the velocity of any real moving thing, even a photon is relative
 to your motion. And it's motion, which is also affected by the medium of

 The velocity of the thing that emitted it (seems not to be the case,
 and SR assets it can't be).

I didn't say it can be infinite, I just said the 2 way speed only has to

Now, I guess it could be infinite if you were moving infinitely fast, then
the speed of light the other way would be half C to make the round trip C.
But moving infinitely fast seems problematic.

You say: "So it really is amazing how big of a shambles it all is!"

Yes, its a shambles.

Part of the problem was pointed out by an early critic of relativity ->

Society, Vol. 18 (March, 1967) pp.71—77

who says - quote - > "Einstein never wrote a definitive account of his

which means --> what Einstein did - was present a series of papers where 
he kept changing his mind.

A few updates...


First because the Michelson Morley claim seemed plausible but not 
totally conclusive, I wasn't doing the math myself and math isn't my 
thing so I farmed that out to AI's that kept on having different ideas 
so to be sure I had to really drill down and figure out the best most 
pure way to do so.



I realized the easiest way was not to deal with a moving medium at all! 
But instead to change the velocity of the wave in the medium and 
recalculate!
See, if a medium is in motion relative to us, then the motion of the 
wave is either increased or decreased relative to our frame, so there is 
no need to deal with the complicating effect of moving mediums as we get 
the same number of waves in a given space is the waves have the same 
speed regardless of how that is achieved.



So say you have a wave that moves at 1000 meters a second and you have a 
10khz signal, in 10 meters distance you have 100 waves (it takes 0.01 
second for a wave to traverse the distance and in that time there are 99 
buddies behind him),
So what happens if we increase the wave velocity to 1.5 times?  Well 
then it would take 15 meters to fit 100 waves and as such we have in 
just 10 meters 2/3rds of those 100 waves, or 66.666 waves.



And if the waves moved at half the speed, how many waves would fit in 
the 10 meter space?  Well, double!



So if we had the medium being stationary and in a 10 meter space we 
would have 200 waves, consisting of 100 waves in each direction, yes 
superimposed.



But by having waves go 1.5 times faster in one direction but only half 
as far in the other direction, this is meant to simulate the medium 
moving at half the speed of the waves we get 66.66 + 200 = 266.66 waves.



So it turns out the Michelson Moley experiment DOES potentially tell us 
something about Ether drift.



It doesn't tell us there isn't an Ether, and it doesn't confirm Lorentz 
transformations though Lorentz transformation might explain why we might 
be moving through and Ether and not detect it.



But another possibility is that there is an Ether and we aren't moving 
through it but entraining it.



On the whole I am happy to accept that Lorentz transformations might, as 
an absolute thing in line with Lorentz Ether Theory, exist.



And I have now heard LET be termed Lorentzian Relativity, and it is 
that, but it is a form of Relativity with an Ether, with a prefered 
frame.  Of course Einstein believed in an Ether in 1920 and compared it 
to matter.



What is most interesting however, that based on a reply from Roger 
Anderson who saw my post, I ended up finding a few interesting notes and 
here they are...



According to Sabine Hossenfelder  YouTube Physicist and fellow INTJ, 
Time dilation DOESN'T OCCUR from steady state motion!  That is another 
change to Special relativity   -  muons shouldn't survive longer either 
at speed if she were correct.



This is interesting as relativistic time dilation seems to have been the 
core component of SR in the 1905 paper, and AFAIK it was in the even 
earlier Lorentz formulations even though time dilation isn't used to 
explain null interferometer results.



Also if there is no time dilation, well sure you don't get twin Paradox 
issues which is good, but there become some other serious issues, think 
of a photon of light bouncing between parallel plates being used as a 
clock:

If you move at a significant velocity (what this means in terms of SR is 
debatable) to the right then the light is taking a zigzag course, and as 
such if it isn't to be superluminal it must be ticking slower though not

it as a zig-zag. If all frames are to seem equal. So time dilation can't 
be thrown out as Sabine tries.  With an Ether frame this light clock 
makes perfect sense with SR you have time dilation that being relative 
to nothing becomes paradoxical in ways described, and the rest frame can 
be learnt be removed of temporal Doppler effects.

It's always interesting to question what is considered our standard point
of view even when it works so well.  Special Relativity is common sense in
my opinion and is why I would never give it up.   However, what always
bugged me was time and using it as a 4th dimension.  One of the concepts of
space-time that is the stuff of SCI-FI, is you could warp space-time in
such a way that the fabric of Space-Time could fold allowing for
fast-than-light travel (FLT).  The warping of space-time does require
extreme bending but in places like black holes, the event horizon provides
a great conceptual model of zero time.  It's what gives rise to concepts
like the Holographic Universe.

I recall on a thought experiment (exploring common sense) I was looking at
the concept of fractional dimensions. Like the Mandlebrot, but the question
I asked myself was, what would a fractional dimension look like if we
experienced one?   There has been a movie of the flat world (a 2D universe)
experiencing its interaction with a 3D world.  You know the circle forming
when viewing a 3d sphere interesting a plane.   So my thought experiment
was what if one and only one of the dimensions was fractional?   Normally
we think of dimensions as X,Y,Z and t, which act like a 4D index into space
(X,Y,Z) and time (t).  If you pick a space dimension like X, we can
envision it as a horizontal position in space.  What would it look like if
X was fractional?   Common sense would say that it would have a
boundary that is no longer an integer but could be limited to only a
direction forward (note forward is a reference to time).  However, from the
Flatworld POV, such a clipping of a dimension would be a dimension that can
only progress forward.

What if time was in reality a fraction dimension incapable of time
reversal?  Time as a fraction dimension could not move backward.  From our
perspective, time is an arrow, a ray, but what if that is what the 4th
dimension is?  A fractional dimension.   When you look at special
relativity from that perspective, things make a little more sense
conceptually.  It really makes the Holographic Universe concept seem even
more profound.

That video wasn't mine, but it explains quite a lot of the basics.

If going into more detail then things get more complicated. What I have 
been looking at is Einstein 1905 paper on special relativity - and the 
physicist Sommerfeld changed it into a different theory when translated 
into English, and seems to have persuaded Einstein to go along with the 
changes. It was not a straight translation from German into English -> 
amendments were made, so the translation is not the same as the original 
theory.


There was no mention of the Michelson Morley experiment in the 1905 
paper; so how the Michelson Morley experiment was to be understood in 
the context of special relativity was an add-on later. Similarly, other 
things like relativistic mass was an add-on after 1905 etc. So, most of 
what we know of relativity is add-ons (and other changes) to what was 
said in 1905.


When you refer to special relativity -> "It's a Fankenstein's monster, 
with parts constantly needing to be changed out."


Yes, that's it.

But when arguing with people who believe in Einstein's relativity - 
"they" think that making changes is the way science is done. Which means 
"they" don't believe in a definitively defined theory, but instead 
believe in a theory that is in constant flux/change.

In addition another thing occurred to me, not only is it impossible for 
the parallel path of the Michelson Morley experiment to experience a

If you ask most people, most physicists, and most LLM's (Large Language 
Models) if the one way speed of light is constant they all will say it 
is and that it is part of Special Relativity (SR).


If you ask most, "how can that be", they will answer the contraction of 
space and dilation of time, but if you drill down deeper you learn that 
actually it isn't, it is a postulate of the 1905 paper on Special 
Relativity and postulate is a fancy word for an assumption that is made 
but not typically explained within.





But if you drill down deeper, you find it isn't even that!  The 
constancy of the speed of light (in each direction, AKA one way speed of 
light) is neither explained by, nor necessary for, nor a postulate of

(the speed of light in each direction) is C, however he claims no such

One-way and two-way speed of light would be a modern interpretation 
being imposed onto what Einstein was saying in 1905.



i.e. translating what Einstein was saying in 1905 from a modern 
perspective.

Relativity is just being subjected to numerous different interpretations

If you ask most people, most physicists, and most LLM's (Large Language 
Models) if the one way speed of light is constant they all will say it 
is and that it is part of Special Relativity (SR).


If you ask most, "how can that be", they will answer the contraction of 
space and dilation of time, but if you drill down deeper you learn that 
actually it isn't, it is a postulate of the 1905 paper on Special 
Relativity and postulate is a fancy word for an assumption that is made 
but not typically explained within.





But if you drill down deeper, you find it isn't even that!  The 
constancy of the speed of light (in each direction, AKA one way speed of 
light) is neither explained by, nor necessary for, nor a postulate of 
the 1905 paper!





What the 1905 paper DOES say is essentially two key things, both 
postulates (again, postulates = assumptions typically not covered in the 
theory being presented, but the foundation of it)


The first is that the speed of light is not affected by the velocity of 
the emitter. 

The next is that the laws of physics are the same in all inertial 
frames. way speed of light to be C in all inertial frames for that.





I thought Einstein supported the idea that the one way speed of light 
(the speed of light in each direction) is C, however he claims no such 
thing in any of his writings according to chat GPT and Claude 2.


The 2 way speed of light being C is most assuredly believed, but the one 
way, if he believed in it he never seemingly mentioned it.


And while I will concede that the one way (single direction) speed of 
light is impossible to measure if SR is correct, if LET, (Lorentz Ether 
Theory) is correct (which many physicists and LLM's can tell you is 
compatible with every experiment that is considered to support SR, they 
are equivalent for most things) then it becomes possible to measure the 
one way speed of light!





If Einstein's model is taken as a cheat, an untrue but simplifying 
mechanism that makes it easier to use Lorentzian transformations without 
needing to worry how we are moving relative to the aether it is a 
success!


But if we take it as the truth and even make it more extreme by 
believing the one way speed of light is C it becomes a comical nonsense!


And we will see just how badly below.




But let's see how we got here!




Light, big shock, moves at a speed.

And speeds can be viewed as relative to our own inertial frame making it 
relative not absolute, for this NOT to be so there would have to be some 
explanation how this might not be but again there is no mechanism by 
which this could be done, it wasn't assumed by SR or Einstein in his 
papers therefore the one way speed of light can't be said to be absolute 
and therefore it is relative even if the 2 way speed of light is 
absolute.


And so the velocity of any real moving thing, even a photon is relative 
to your motion. And it's motion, which is also affected by the medium of 
either...


The velocity of the thing that emitted it (seems not to be the case, and 
SR assets it can't be).


OR the your velocity through the medium, the medium that possesses 
magnetizability and polarizability (The permeability and permittivity) 
AKA The Ether or Aether.


Since we have established that Einstein never claimed the one way speed 
of light is C and didn't try to explain how it could be either, as I 
will show soon how impossible that is, we can't have a relativistic 
aether that offers no preferred frame!


 Yes, that is essentially what he tried to create, but failed.   Even 
if you can't know what the one way speed of light is, you can know as I 
will show that it can't be equal.

Now as I tried to write the rest of this message I have come to a problem,
I was going to explain why the Michelson Morley experiment which used an
interferometer with two paths, one perpendicular and one along the earths
presumed direction of motion through the Aether.
However in trying to explain why the number of wavelengths that fit in the
two paths should vary based on the axis of movement of the aetheric medium
relative to the laboratory frame, I have found a problem, it seems that the
number of wavelengths would not change even if the 2 way speed of light was
speed wasn't constant!
It is worth noting that the Michelson Morley experiment didn't measure
light speed at all, nor would time dilation have any effect on interference
fringes, only wavelength matter, or more to the point the number of them
that fit along the path.
It seems that the Doppler shift from super and sub-luminal light would lead
to the same number of wavelengths in the round trip back to the angled
plate that initially splits the beams and then recombines the light for the
detector.
So while the number of wavelengths that fit in the path change for each
direction it sums to the same number on the round trip!

I would note that I had some weird variable answers from LLM's sometimes
using the wrong Doppler shift equation is used so it works best if you have
it manually calculate the number of waves that would fit in based on the
distance and the speed of light (presuming of course a variable speed)
which gives you the travel time and the frequency of light gives you the
number of wavelengths.
The point is that you get a null result from calculating the round trip on
an interferometer path even if we don't use Lorentz transformations and
assume light isn't C, not even the 2 way speed of light!
So while the SPEED of light of the round trip might or might or might not
be constant based on motion though the Aether, the Michelson Morley
experiment tells us NOTHING about the movement of the Aether or the speed
of light!
Now, EVEN IF the Michelson Morley experiment had the potential to detect
motion through the Aether signifying a need for a solution (though it
DOESN'T) Lorentz contraction could be used for the null result but the
Lorentz's Ether Theory is compatible with the speed of light not being
constant in each direction, indeed it requires it!
It only makes the 2 way speed of light constant.
And so how does Lorentz contraction and time dilation work and why doesn't
it make the one way speed of light C?
Because if you are moving through the Aether, light that is coming towards
you and hence presumed to have added velocity above that of C only becomes
even faster when your watch ticks fewer times while it passes, and if your
ruler is shorter it has less distance to go further speeding up light from
your perspective (if you could measure said one way speed).
And if somehow the speed of light were magically C in the one way sense
(again, Einstein never made this claim apparently and certainly no math
support how this impossible thing could occur) , then the addition of
Lorentz transformations only make it all superluminal again!
Lorentz transformations weren't designed to make the one way speed of light
C, and if it's needed it means it isn't already C and if it is already C
then Lorentz transformations aren't needed
In other words Lorentz transformations are only needed if things aren't
already C, but their effect is to push things further from C with respect
to the one way speed of light.
Lorentz contraction makes no sense when you drill down to it.

[Vo]:One advantage of Schauberger Doppledrall is that it turns Coriolis stress direction

2023-10-19 Thread David Jonsson
Hi

I found an advantage of Schauberger Doppeldrall - double whirl in English.

The idea is that Taylor-Dean vortex creation is prevented by letting the
Coriolis stress, that causes the buildup of Taylor-Dean vortices, act in
different directions instead of consistently the same direction as is the
case in unturned flow.

Taylor-Dean vortices are the same as Görtler vortices. They are described
in the plane perpendicular to the flow. A more general description is the
Coriolis stress caused in bent flows.

Dean vortices are mentioned as a lossy type of turbulence or drag in pipes
and are mentioned in incompressible flow like water in pipes. Görtler
vortices are usually mentioned in air with constraints like a plane wing.

Image and link to laboratory example:

Please also explain why the question was closed after one year.

In light of the recent announcement of the Russian nuclear powered cruise

One of their scientists may have let it slip out.

I can't even begin to express how conceptually and experimentally wrong this 
demonstration is. The first thing is the perpetuation of the mistaken idea that 
photons are wiggling in a sinusiodal fashion. When you see that sine wave, it's 
a graph of the varying field as the wave propagates. It's not the wave itself. 
This is such a common miscommunication that physics students often have a hard 
time getting over it.

Just for the sake of context, this guy should have at least mentioned the 
practical application of this phenomenon, which is the polarizing 
saccharimeter. Wine makers, for example, use this device to measure the amount 
of dextrose (glucose) in grape juice so they can harvest the grapes at their 
peak. So next time you're enjoying that glass of wine, think, 
"Mmm...saccharimeter."

The experimental setup in this demonstration has, in my opinion, a fatal flaw. 
The light source seems to be too broad to test the phenomenon. Furthermore it 
appears to be tilted at an angle at the entrance to the tube. Both of these 
factors will have the light glancing off the interior of the tube. At least 
some of the light will be at Brewster's angle for the interface between the 
sugar solution and the tube. So the interior of the tube becomes its own 
polarizer.

Another thing that should have been mentioned is that the light, while 
circularly polarized in the sugar solution, emerges linearly polarized. Maybe 
that's obvious, but it should have been stated.
Having said all that, it's a hell of a beautiful demonstration. It should be 
repeated with a narrow beam of light just to see the results.

[Vo]:Conservation of energy

2023-09-21 Thread Vibrator !
The first law is specifically framed in terms of 'closed systems', yet what
constitutes full thermodynamic enclosure is always open to question.
Fundamentally, the system has to be open to a fundamental force constant,
and time.  That could be the EM force constant, alpha, or the gravitational
constant G etc., these reducing to effective time rates of exchange of
momenta or ±dp/dt, in turn opening the possibility of divergent inertial
reference frames and hence a breakdown of conservation of energy between
velocity frames.  OU systems more generally are 'inadvertently /
inexplicably open thermodynamic systems', where one might superficially
expect them to be closed and isolated, such that ie. calorimetry would be
defeated. Historically, Bessler's wheel was a legit claim, repeatedly
demonstrated and accredited to the highest standards; i suspect Rossi's
eCat is also legit, probably Ylidiz too, but as ever the challenge is
figuring out HOW and why the effect is being generated, taming what most
dismiss as an invisible pink elephant..

The whole field's still marred in conflicted thinking, on both sides..
'perpetual motion' simply Newton's first law, pending some external force
acting to change it..  OU - together with under-unity (AKA non-dissipative
loss mechanisms) - are a spectrum-condition of novel I/O force / space /
time asymmetries, as i say, pivoting on fundamental force constants and
time..  That is, to play the energy game you first have to play the
momentum game, challenging N2 (F=mA and its inversions) and N3
(instantaneous equality of momenta and counter-momenta).  OU / UU means a
divergent inertial frame; that is, one proceeding without inertial
interaction with its environment, and this applies equally to classical EM
theory as mechanics.  In other words caveat emptor - there's always a
corresponding entropy change, somewhere.. what matters is that the worst
effects of any resulting fallout are anticipated and mitigated.  No
free-energy panacea, no actions without consequences.  The vacuum is
obviously not 'nothing', and engineering it is not something you wanna be
doing inadvertently (see how big-rip scenarios are contingent on localised
variations in the strength of the Higgs interaction triggering runaway
equilibration of false-vacuum potentials and collapse into a lower or
true-vacuum state, for instance).  Bessler's five-week demonstration of his
largest, most-powerful wheel at castle Weissenstein through winter 1717 is
coincident with the Christmas storms of 1717 that devastated the NW
European coastline weeks later; resting momentum states are not disturbed
lightly or trivially..


[Vo]:Re: Antigravity with a ring of capacitors

2023-09-21 Thread Vibrator !
The ARV story is chaff; misdirection to fill the void with something
semi-plausible, at least to some degree of consistency, yet whilst only
providing bumsteer.  The UFO equivalent of red mercury.  Visitors' craft
are obviously surrounded by some kind of glowing orb phenomenon, commonly
assumed to be plasma; superficially, consistent with application of a high
electric field density, sufficient to exceed the breakdown density of the
surrounding air molecules.  Thus, so the logic goes, generating warp fields
must have something to do with powerful electric fields.

Of course we're being asked to walk the plank there however - so far as the
standard field equations are concerned, the electric field density required
to cause such significant yet highly-localised spacetime deformations as
we're seeing could only be contained by a miniature black hole; it's
circular logic.

But even the plasma ball hypothesis doesn't hold up to basic logic - we
predominantly see orange / white hues - the former might imply helium, but
that's only a trace element in air, and besides, we'd then need to invoke a
conserved supply of different gases to ionise for every other colour of the
spectrum these things can rapidly cycle through.  Air's 70% nitrogen, which
fluoresces violet from the combined preponderance of red and
blue-wavelength electron shell transitions - the familiar colour or
electrical arcing.

Even worse for the plasma theory are the results of diffraction
spectroscopy, revealing a continuous spectrum consistent with sun or
starlight, or the CMBR, as opposed to the discrete line spectra of specific
fluorescing elements.   See the Hessdalen example for instance.

Then of course there's the fact that these orbs persist underwater, or out
in space.  So for starters, UAP glow is not ionised gases!  Some ionisation
is occurring, but as an effect of the light, rather than its cause; this is
due to the +UV components of these broad-spectrum emissions, forming
ionising radiation that for instance breaks up O2 which then preferentially
de-excites by forming O3 rather than by releasing a photon, and thus
responsible for the 'pungent' or 'chlorine' odour of ozone often reported
in the vicinity of sightings.  This likewise accounts for the many
instances of skin, eye and hair damage, shorting of exposed electrical
equipments, plant and soil damage (O3 blocking leaf stromata, inhibiting
respiration and in turn causing lasting carbon-depletion of the underlying
soil microbiome).

The most consistent explanation for this light production that can be
formulated from what is currently known is that it is Casimir radiation
from the interface of curved and flat spacetimes - akin to Unruh radiation,
but in this case the thermal bath effect is produced by relative
compression of the Planck length, blue-shifting of the enclosed volume of
virtual photonsphere along with shrinking of its coordinate space, as
opposed to observer acceleration.   In essence it's the familiar heat-pump
principle, wherein the 'heat' is the EM four-potential and the 'gas',
spacetime.  Squeezing spacetime makes it glow, like.  It adds relativistic
momentum and energy to virtual photons, causing the vacuum to begin
expressing real photons of all wavelengths, per Casimir.

This is why UAP glow is continuous-spectrum, and persists in space and
underwater:  it is stimulated emission of radiation from vacuum caused by
the second law of thermodynamics trying to equilibrate between the enclosed
value of raised false-vacuum, and ambient;  the two disparate values of
vacuum potential in close proximity immediately around the craft.  It is
thus environmental energy flowing almost incidentally around the craft like
a kind of vacuum-wake, rather than energy being dissipated by or lost to
the craft themselves (which for their part likely operate at or above the
Carnot efficiency limit, as long implicated by Mr Robert Lazar esq).  It is
biased towards the longer-wavelength, redder end of the spectrum (thus
warm-white) by the conservation of energy, bluer photons requiring more
energy so being less common.  AKA a Planck distribution.  This is why UAP
can be captured using cheap IR monoculars from Amazon, since even when not
emitting at visible wavelengths, they're almost-inevitably still producing
an IR signature (i've filmed dozens myself this last year).

But just as electric field density alone cannot explain such extreme
spacetime manipulations - it's all very well attributing spontaneous EM
radiation to them, if we still can't explain how they're produced - more to
the point, we cannot explain UAP warpfields within the confines of the
standard field equations and mass-energy density alone.  We need some kind
of conceptual leap or bridgehead that can be reconciled with much stronger
spacetime deformations at much shorter ranges, and at much more modest (and
practical!) mass-energy densities..

This too has been provided by Lazar:  the strong nuclear force reduces to

2023-09-06 Thread Jonathan Berry
As I was eating some soup (on day 5 of the fasting mimicking diet) I
wondered why I didn't try putting a pyramid in a box?!

I took a Pyramid I made from A4 Paper where I printed a Template for a
Pyramid of my own design, this design uses an effect I discovered and then
found another researcher independently discovered!

Both of us make the exact same claim, you take a Pyramid, cut it into 4
parts and the further apart you pull the sides (within reason) the stronger
the energy (dramatically so)

So this pyramid that one lady I sent the design to said "it fills the room
with energy".

I put in a cardboard box, not even square and guess what, I couldn't feel
the energy from it, hmmm.

Luckily because it is in 4 segments pulled apart (each being one wall of a
4 sided pyramid, not touching the other walls) there is a lot of space in
the middle.

So I put some rock salt within the Pyramid in the box and closed it up,
waited a few moments and took the Pyramid out, poured the rock salt on to
the bench.

Then I took more rock salt and repeated the process without putting it in
the box.

Then I compared the energy I could feel radiation off of each one, and the
difference is huge.

I also checked out the structure of Copper Titanium Oxide (CCTO)  which has
value of about 1.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S138589472030317X

And it is has the same essential structure.

If anyone wants to spend some time making the paper pyramid, has a printer,
paper, sellotape and some scissors and 20-30 mins to do what amount to a
childs exercise I'll send you 2 templates for 2 designs, they are also
great stacked.

BTW, just curious about things with a high dielectric constant as these
have been correlated with both Free Energy (a researcher with a coil around
a Barium Titanate coil inputting a special frequency got a blue glow and
free energy out, yes, Barium again pops up).

But also I recall reading about highly dielectric sands and powders being
found to have some reduced rate of fall in a vacuum or did they demonstrate
a degree of antigravity, I forget.  Perhaps both.

Maybe it was even a connection to T.T Brown's work, but at any rate the

That those structures if made macroscopically and nested would create some

Indeed the Lamb shift is a separation of virtual particles by an electric

close levels.

The first is the ARV (Alien Reproduction Vehicle) known as the fluxliner
and a very compelling case is made for it in this humorous and effective
video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUFYnVXbLoY

There you will see that MANY people claimed to see this same hovering
saucer at an Air-Show for top brass only.

The startling thing about the design is that the craft had an array of 48
high voltage capacitors that looks like a maximized version of the next
one, this very own lists "Capwarp"!
 http://amasci.com/caps/capwarp.html

There we see a number of people managed to successfully replicate this
thing, and I recall a number of additional people on this list claiming
some success that wasn't recorded there.

So, given the Lamb shift and other information letting us know there is
something to be affected (including by an electric field) and the multiple
witnesses to the ARV and multiple claimants we could come to the conclusion
that there is a VERY HIGH probability that a circular array of HV
capacitors can create levitation.

We also of course have the work of Thomas Townsend Brown, now some of his
capacitor arrays were indeed very similar to this, though his thrusts were
stronger he had large numbers of layers submerged in oil and both a weight
loss and thrust was noticed, this is in addition to the more showy but
arguably potentially more ion wind based examples he later worked on.

But there is a book, I think it might be the Yellow cover of "Antigravity
and the World Grid" where it mentions a rumor that T.T Brown was rumored to
have got far higher levels of Antigravity from a circular array of
capacitors.

But we aren't done yet!

In an "Infolio" I got from Rex Research it mentioned a high school kid who
made a large circular capacitor with a Polystyrene dielectric, it lost
weight no when charged no matter which polarity was up, this aligns with
T-T Brown claiming that there was both an antigravity AND a propulsive
component to his work.

Then one day I found a comment on Youtube, it was about a University
student (Doyle a few years on?) who got levitation from a glass dielectric
based circular capacitor!

When I relayed this to (RIP) Marc McCandlish he told me about another man
who made a very very large circular capacitor and he used a black
dielectric similar to what is used for shoes, and energized it with a Tesla
coil, if his claims are genuine he made a craft he flew in!

Ok so we have some other interesting evidence to consider.
There is a claim of another science fair experiment at a school, whis one
involved 2 circular plates of Aluminium with a time varying (IIRC) HV field
applied, a ball bearing placed on this began to moe in a circle, given that
there is no obvious electromagnetic mechanism for such a behavior and we
are looking for evidence of some type of "Aerther Vortex" involved with
large HV appropriately designed capacitors then this also supports the the
picture being painted here.

In addition, I also at one point (wish I had kept track of it) multiple
claims of circular (might have been spheres actually) charged with high
voltage DC in association with a second pole, and a torque being noticed on
the components, essentially another case supporting a circular force from
HV capacitors that seems not to be easily explained by electrodynamic
forces.

Then there is the Ducret house account mentioned in the Ether Technology
book by Rho Sigma, it was dielectric disk which under the influence of high
voltage rotated then becoming airborne, in this case I believe the rotation
was easily explained by electrostatic motor effects but the levitation
while not a perfect match seems to be potentially relevant.

There was also a man, who's name eludes me at present but the account is
not unknown, he had a device he demonstrated at the World's fair, he
described it as a "Rotary Condenser" and and weight loss was demonstrated,
though there is no image of the device, but the name certainly leads to
plausibility that it is perhaps related.

The next is Alexey Chekurkov, while his device has more going on than just
a circular HV capacitor, it DOES satisfy that requirement and produces
levitation!  It

What is yellow? by PehrSall
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_1WiWGndZw

PehrSall is a physicist who is interested in the history and science of
color theory. He has many video's in which he investigates Newton's and
Geothe's color theories experimentally.

He also has a video on Land's two color investigations.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG4bzGNc1E0

In this beautiful investigation
_Goethe's Purple Ray - alias Monochromatic Rays of Shadow, the
Rehabilitation of Darkness_
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vu_7uG6KlsU
he argues that Newton did not demonstrate that white light consists of
variously coloured lights  any more than he was able to demonstrate the
'absurd' thesis that darkness consists of variously coloured shadows.
(Personally I am not sure that the absurdity of one thesis should be
regarded as proof that both theses are unjustified. I am inclined to ask
what if the absurd thesis were true?)


This paper supports my opinion that there is still much to learn about the
nature of radiation.

[Vo]:Conservation of energy

2023-08-27 Thread Jonathan Berry
This will be a short and easy one, essentially there are two ways to look
at the law of conservation of energy that seem identical but have important
differences.

Let's assume for the moment that energy cannot be (in a net sense) created
or destroyed.

So then energy can either be said to be converted, or created and
destroyed in equal amounts.

This might seem like the same thing but it seems that it is more true to
see it as being equal creation and destruction.

And by viewing it this way we can observe something about a great many
devices that claim Free Energy and also some that claim Antigravity as well.

And what is that?  Well a lot of designs differ from more
regular non-overunity designs by having sections where there is a greater
level of energy being both created and destroyed.

Let's propose we have two capacitors in series passing an AC current, then
we charge the floating middle section, as long as we don't overcharge the
capacitors this will lead to zero net change electrically to the energy
passing through, but if we look at each capacitor in each moment we see
that one capacitor will be opposing the current and one will be helping it.

That means that one capacitor will be discharging while the other is
charging, and the current passing through, the individual electrons have
energy pulled from them and later given back.

The same situation exists with devices that have either a noninductive coil
which passes a current that is placed in an inductive field, again the
current passing through it is assisted and then opposed, otherwises this is
done with two coils in series connected to achieve the same zero net
inductance.

This also occurs with motor/generator designs, and magnets variably
assisting with rotation and then opposing it.

All of this activity is very relevant to what I would term aether, and what
Bearden would term scalar phenomena.

Imbalancing creation and destruction of energy might or might not be
possible, and really neither can be proven ultimately.

But it seems far more accurate to view it as generally perfectly balanced
creation and destruction than conversion, treating energy as conversion
seems like a very much zoomed out overview and not true to the details, and
as such it is easy to overlook things that net to zero in the big picture.

William Alek posted a document I have only partially skimmed but it covers
elements of this:
https://intalek.com/Events/TomBeardenScalarWaveTheory2022_SEM23.pdf

This, along with the radiant release of energy (Tesla's phenomena) is the
basis of IMO essentially all Free Energy/Antigravity/Cold Fusion and other
instances where experiments produce effects that breach the regular laws of
physics.

Excuse the cross-posting.

Re: [Vo]:Colours

The delay? I don't think we're in a hurry. And clearly no one else on the list 
has an interest in our discussion.

Spectral colors and their perception are my business. I've made literally 
billions of square meters of diffraction gratings, mostly decorative patterns. 
Yellow and magenta have been particularly interesting to me for a few reasons. 
I am of the controversial opinion that yellow doesn't exist except in human 
perception.

Years ago, before lasers became unbelievably inexpensive, I was interested in 
creating a light source to view transmission holograms without a laser or 
filtered mercury arc. I had a lot of slide projectors left over from my 
"psychedelic light show" so I thought I could use one to make such a light 
source. I put a slit into the projector where the slide would normally go and a 
high efficiency Bragg diffraction grating in front of it. This projected a nice 
broad spectrum. I then used another slit to isolate whatever color I wanted and 
a cylinder lens to spread it out. This worked quite well, but not very bright. 
I settled on what would normally be called the yellow part of the spectrum.

But people viewing the holograms this way would say that the color was white, 
or perhaps gray. I thought the same thing. You have to see this to appreciate 
it. So maybe Roy G Biv should change his name. Another example of the 
phenomenon is a pressure tuned krypton laser. At just the right gas pressure it 
makes four more or less equally spaced colors if sent through a prism: red, 
yellow, green, and two tightly spaced blues. The yellow looks yellow when the 
other colors are present, but by itself it appears to be colorless. A lot of 
people smarter than I have argued about these things for a very long time.

If you really want to see some strangeness as regards color perception, look up 
Land color theory. I played around with this when I was a child, and my family 
thought I was nuts.

I just think it's a gift to us that we can perceive color the way we do.

Sorry about the delay.

I am not sure. If you think about it, overlapping colours don't go along
with the topology of stress lines.
However, cellophane tape is a different situation. It could be that
the perception of the colour magenta is situational like
the perception of yellow.


Did you know that a third class of mammalian photoreceptors was discovered
in the 1990's?
Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell were only shown to be

 As had
been found in other mammals, the identity of the non-rod non-cone
photoreceptor in humans was found to be a ganglion cell in the inner
retina. The researchers had tracked down patients with rare diseases wiping
out classic rod and cone photoreceptor function but preserving ganglion
cell function.[15]
[16]
 Despite
having no rods or cones the patients continued to exhibit circadian
photoentrainment, circadian behavioural patterns, melanopsin suppression,
and pupil reactions, with peak spectral sensitivities to environmental and

Maybe, look at how both cases of levitation had one end up and one end down.

This suggests one of 2 things, they either made a ferromagnetic material

OR, they made a superconductor that is only superconductive at one end.

So a tiny bit of contamination only occurred at that point?

I do not understand what you mean here.

If a 3-month detailed report would interfere with writing a patent, the
researcher can submit an abbreviated report saying something like: "A
patent is now being written. When it is filed, in approximately two months,
a more detailed report will be sent." That should satisfy everyone. The
patent application should be written promptly.

If the researcher cannot do things this way, he should seek money from a
venture capitalist instead of a philanthropist.

May be you see the point. With 3 months reports you in average write 2 
weeks patents...


But so far we wrote reports/papers to avoid that others can patent 
useful stuff. I think basic research should be public like MFP:

Everything must be published in enough detail to replicate the experiment.
Otherwise there is no point. If it cannot be replicated, it is not science.

To replicate, you usually need a very detailed report. Unless the
experiment is a "me too" replication of something already described in the
literature. There is not much point to that.

Jed, I do not object reporting, but these blood suckers like to have 
detailed reports...This would be OK for 10x more money...



Further:: A little bit more advanced experiments need high level 
equipment. Like a multi target PVD coater, a good galvanostat and access 
to a decent XRF just to name 3 gadgets, where a good PVD starts at 50k$ 
without any addons like expensive targets.


I think that providing gadgets would be the better approach than 
spending money. That way you can switch it between groups or groups 
could provide some services (like PVD,XRF) to other groups.


E.g. we just evaluate access to a good PVD. With the proper machine and 
the correct targets you can do one process step in one day. Then for 
months 50k stay idle doing nothing...

I have given several researchers funding, with no strings attached. I 
definitely want a progress report every 3 months. It is not reasonable 
to take someone's money and then not tell them what you are doing with 
it. A short but substantive report every three months is entirely

When I contribute money to an experiment with no strings attached (no

published in full, on a timely basis. The researcher would be free to

philanthropist wants to pay for research that remains secret. There is 
no point. So not only would I get "maximal information" but so would 
anyone else in the world. This is entirely reasonable.


Do you expect people to give money unconditionally? What would be the

secret? That is not science. You need to look at this from the point

Would it change your mind if you saw the real thing instead of a digital 
representation? All of color photography, both on film and now with digital 
cameras and LCD or OLED screens depend upon acceptable approximations of the 
real colors. This varies among different cultures.

And now, I delve once more into my misty past. In the late 60s I made a meager 
living doing what was then called a "psychedelic light show" with rock bands. 
One of the effects I used was a rotating polarizer combined with various 
crystals and injection molded styrene. I used to search grocery and hardware 
stores for suitable pieces. I would then use them as is or further stress them 
by heating and stretching. You can definitely see edges of red and blue around 
the magenta. Something even more definitive could be seen when making patterns 
from the original Scotch cellophane tape. After they switched to polypropylene, 
much to my disappointment at the time, the effect was no longer possible. As 
you rotate the polarizer slowly you could see a washed out red, fading into 
magenta and then blue.

Again, probably more than you wanted to know.

The demonstrations given by this lecturer are more refined so it is easier
to observe how magenta arises in proximity to other colours.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqZ1THDGD34

The idea that real or objective colour is reducible to a single parameter
known as wavelength seems to me simplistic and wrong. Even with the domain
of the hard sciences, colour should be treated as
a multidimensional phenomena.

does not appear in Newton's spectrum it is made up by the brain whenever
red and blue light overlap. (By contrast magenta does appear in Goethe's
spectrum a.k.a the dark spectrum).

Although it is certainly possible to trick the brain into seeing colours
which aren't there such as when red and green light overlap to create the
illusion of yellow light, this is not proof that magenta is just made up by

A much more easily viewed demonstration of the effect we are discussing here is 
looking at clear glass table tops outside. If you happen to have some lawn 
furniture that includes a clear tempered glass table top, all you have to do is 
stand to the east or west of of the glass and look down at it at an angle of 
approximately 56 degrees and you will see beautiful pools of color. The colors 
outline the birefringence caused by the strains in the tempered glass.

Once in a while a random observation at my back yard of the phenomenon by a

And of course, their eyes glaze over when I try to explain it.

from the clear sky is partially polarized along a north to south

you would see these colors to your left or right as the angle to

Alternatively, it might just be a very thin oil slick formed from

 Please feel free to pursue it. It's way beyond my means to do so.

 BTW, it can be enhanced by introducing a forced ultrasound vibration

Please feel free to pursue it. It's way beyond my means to do so.

BTW, it can be enhanced by introducing a forced ultrasound vibration that 
resonates in the lattice at a frequency that
encourages vibration in the plain.

Buy electric cars and recharge them from solar panels on your roof.

Super conduction (SC) is a complex field. First the old cooper pair 
model is invalid for most cases as shown by Hirsch.


The physical reality more looks like evolving spin currents (=EM flux 
only) that seemlessly explains why field lines cannot penetrate an SC:



From this it is clear that a full (Meissner effect)  SC needs to have 
at least a 2D structure. The smallest possible 2D structure is a 
homogeneous crystal axes what most call a 1D SC.


1D SC's at room T have been identified a long time ago > 20 years. But 
the synthesis of long mono-crystals is not viable except e.g. carbon 
nano tubes that now reach 1 meter.



So the final question is whether LK99 is 1D or 2D. In case its full 2D 
(2 axes) then a better synthesis will finally show a full Meissner 
effect - what is not yet the case.


Nevertheless if resistance disappears in 1D it still is an SC just not a 
classical one.



So lets wait what will happen. As the result will be high impact, do not 
trust any statements by "high level" political instances. Only science 
should be accepted and this might take weeks..years...
