This report is another nail in Standard Model’s coffin.Folks should take a 
look at the theory of P Hatt to understand better what happens in the tin

Maybe we should change the name of LENR to remove the 'Nuclear' connotation
and just call it Structure Effect HyperChemical Reactions, SEHCR.Just
because there's a high energy gamma ray DURING the process doesn't mean
that we have to deal with gamma rays as a RESULT of it.So by it not
being a 'nuclear' process, it will be monitored by standard industry
watchdogs rather than the NRC.

Subject: EXTERNAL: RE: [Vo]:Missing Neutrons (hydrinos)

One more post on this intriguing subject of “disappearing hydrinos” leading to 
anomalous cooling, before passing the pliers to Terry.

We have already mentioned that Dirac’s “reciprocal space” provides an 
alternative venue for this modality, if it really exists – with a lot more 
credibility and less baggage that “parallel universes” … but that also brings 
up other fractal spatial possibilities.

There is a paper on ArXiv – “Huge Casimir effect at finite temperature in 
electromagnetic Rindler space”. Here is the story on a blog:
http://nextbigfuture.com/2011/10/proposed-metamaterial-structure-to-test.html
http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/arxiv/pdf/1110/1110.1919v1.pdf

Anyway – there are several novel connection between fractals, anomalous energy 
gain or loss - and active geometry which is not exactly 3-space, all of which 
keep popping up in the literature from time to time (not unlike quantum foam). 
The message is that particular geometry can somehow alter spacetime - and it is 
more than the actual spatial dimensions in nm, but also the layout and the 
(magnetic) field.

These have a common thread in that there is a known dynamic Casimir effect 
(DCE) which can supply excess energy, due to spatial constraints and relativity 
(i.e. altered spacetime). Consider also: ‘Minkowski Space’ is related to 
‘Rindler Space’ and also to ‘De Sitter Space.’ It is possible that all three of 
these terms relate to a unique fractal of space-time (using ‘fractal’ in the 
original sense of a fractional dimension) which becomes accessible at the 
Forster radius of 2-12 nm.

This is NOT normal 3-space, nor is it 2-space but somewhere in between. Almost 
a wormhole, so to speak. Look at the image here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_spacetime

in the context of this article

http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/arxiv/pdf/1110/1110.1919v1.pdf

This all fits together in a way that is not easy to verbalize, but seems to 
involve
1)Double vortex in spacetime
2)Vortex flipping and self-oscillation
3)Spatial geometry that relates to the Forster radius (FRET) 2-12 nm
4)Exaggerated vibrational modes
5)Anomaly is not always a gain in temperature – sometimes a loss.

The problem is that this analysis is an early attempt to merge 
mathematical-space with real space.

But what is “real space”, anyway?

It is related to theology (or at least quasi-theology) since most

 BTW - for those who do not grasp what actually happened in the EPRI reports,
 here is a short synopsis of Ahern's experiments. First, there is a well
 insulated reactor with numerous RTDs for accurate temperature measurement.
 The reactor is filled with pressurized hydrogen and various sample
 nanopowders - including an inert control powder. There is a resistance
 heater, drawing in the tens of watts. The current is kept absolutely
 constant to the heater, so that there is no variation on P-in during the
 run.

 With the 'control', you will find from datalogging that a specific rate of
 thermal transfer occurs between the outer RTD, where the heater is located
 and the inner. Hydrogen under pressure is a good conductor of heat so this
 is normally only a few degrees. For example, in the control setup (no active
 powder) one might see 350C on the outside and 340C on the inside. The
 difference is minimal and never varies.

 OK - when one switches from the control to active nanopowder, things get
 interesting and if there is excess energy from the interaction of hydrogen
 with the powder, there will be an inversion, so that the inner RTD becomes
 hotter - often much hotter than the outer. That happens with nano-nickel,
 and the resulting temperature can be close to 100 degrees inverted. This is
 NOT calorimetry, but there are implications to be firmed up on further
 experimentation.

 The interesting part (for this thread) is that with Titanium nanopowder,
 instead of a temperature inversion indicating gain, you get an anomalous
 sink. For instance, instead of an expected 10 degree drop (out-to-in) the
 spread can be much higher, an order of magnitude perhaps, indicating active
 cooling.

 Any round numbers above are for illustration purposes only; but the results
 are shocking and significant in both anomalies - heat and cooling. And guess
 what, the cooling anomaly could be almost as important as the heating, in
 terms of new physics.

 EVEN IF THERE IS NO PATH TO COMERCIALIZATION - for an active cooling
 anomaly, it could be important if it points the way to an accurate
 understanding of the heat. That is where this is going.

 I haven’t heard a better explanation for active nano-cooling than the
 disappearance of matter from one spatial dimension into reciprocal space.
 This space may not be a true dimension, but a fractal instead. Fractal is
 being used in the original way to mean a fractional dimension. Plus, the
 matter which is lost may not be a neutron, per se, but instead a
 maximum-redundant hydrino.

 Essentially, what I think happens with nano-titanium cooling is that the
 nanoparticles - which are a strong Mills' catalyst - collapse to the full
 redundancy in one continuous step - where there is both heat release on
 shrinkage, followed immediately by massive heat loss. on the atomic level,
 when the hydrino essentially disappears into reciprocal space. The net
 result is active cooling. Why it only happens with titanium needs to be
 answered. Perhaps it is a momentum effect of some kind.

 E=mc^2 works both ways, apparently - and when mass disappears - in a
 dimensional sense, so does the corresponding energy it contained. This is
 seen as heat removal from a hot reactor. The active species does not have to
 be 'mirror matter' as in the original article - but if that helps in
 appreciating the view through Alice's 'looking glass' - good! ... it is kind
 of catchy, so let's keep it.

 The mystery of the eternal is now nothing more than CoE.

 Good find - and the implications are a bit convoluted. The curious thing
 is
 that mirror matter neutrons (or deep hydrinos) will explain anomalous heat
 loss quite nicely.

 As you may remember, Ahern reported that some of his Arata-style samples
 demonstrated anomalous heat LOSS (more of the samples show gain than loss,
 and only a few showed nothing).

 This paper, in fact - could explain anomalous heat loss better than
 anything
 I have seen thus far.

 BTW the all of the nanopowder samples which showed thermal loss were made
 of
 nano-titanium embedded in zirconia. All of the nickel and palladium
 samples
 showed gain.

I would assume that the cooling process is about as evasive as the heating

Re: [Vo]:Missing Neutrons (hydrinos)

2012-06-17 Thread David Roberson

An LENR like technique that achieves active cooling would be an interesting 
discovery.  It is normal for a black body radiator to loose energy and cool 
down by radiation and maybe a method exists to convert some of the thermal 
energy into another form such as neutrinos that can escape any system 
effortlessly.  The natural world may have a lot of fancy 'tricks' that we have 
not yet uncovered.

In normal stellar evolution I understand that iron is the last element 
synthesized within the core.  Additional fusion is actually endothermic and 
would effectively be similar to what is suggested as a sink of energy that 
allows cooling.  Perhaps this discovery is a low temperature variation of this 
effect.

2012-06-17 Thread Jones Beene
Yesterday, Robin mentioned that under the theory of Mills, the hydrino
cannot be easily contained after it gives up significant energy - and would
eventually migrate out of the structure like a neutron (being subject to
gravity) and eventually “disappear” anyway – so there is no need for another
sudden kind of “disappearance” where mass/energy is completely removed from
the observer’s reality, resulting in cooling. 

Presumably the spent hydrino (from heating) would migrate to the center of
earth, due to its effective density and neutrality, and thus it is almost
completely removed from the observer’s reality as well. The point of
difference being the net loss (or gain) which was seen at the original
source of the reaction. 

I had the thought that the two routes to hydrogen disappearance, if they are
ever proved - could be connected via some kind of CoE linkage. A ‘cosmic
balance sheet’ of sorts. That would involve “reciprocal space” having its
own gravity link. Maybe the hot and cold particles, both formerly hydrogen
atoms, complete the cycle in the earth’s gravity well. 

There has always been talk of a very dense core for earth, denser than any
element – in fact similar to the so-called neutron star. Neutron stars
contain the densest matter that is directly observable, but it is probably
not neutrons per se – more like “quark soup”. Earth may have a few teaspoons
of quark soup material at the very center, a few gigatons where everything
dense goes to get “regauged” according to Bearden, or “regrooved” according
to Firesign.

As I recall, the titanium experiments with thermal gain have been with 
deuterium. Do you have reference to gain with Ti-H instead of Ti-D?

 

But even if titanium can go either way, and it can be determined that some 
experiments with hydrogen and other “nano-metric” metals result in excess heat, 
and some with cooling, then it will possible to look closely to find what third 
factors are contributory (to whether the reaction goes to net-cooling or 
net-cooling).

 

IOW – what I am saying is that perhaps ALL reactions with hydrogen loaded metal 
result in a mix of the two, even the ones that are massively gainful in heat. 

 

Perhaps those, such as in Rossi claims, are 90/10 (hot/cold). Perhaps Ahern 
titanium samples gave 47/53 and it appeared to be cooling but it was only net 
cooling with significant heat also.

 

If the “missing neutron” or “missing hydrino” ends up with a huge loss of 
mass-energy, then that covers up a lot of excess heat prior to the loss.

 

This can explain why LERN is generally unreliable – a natural tendency to 
produce a balance of excess heat and excess cooling - and it requires some 
unknown intervention to shift the balance.

Other key features observed in Fig. 8 and Fig. 9 that must be accounted for
by any theory include the “gaps” between high yield products and the high
Ag and Cd yields. Ag (and Cd) production is particularly challenging, since
*Ag occurs in large quantities but is not favored energetically. Ag’s
position, well to the lower binding energy side of Ni, infers an
endothermic reaction (negative Q-value), which in turn suggests energy
transfer to the reactants must occur to drive the reaction. *(This is
analogous to driving negative Q-value reactions by colliding high-energy
reactants using accelerated beams. As defined here, Q values are the energy
released due to the mass difference between reactants and products,
assuming that the reactants enter with zero kinetic or excitation energy.)
Consequently, the model must contain a mechanism for energy
storage/transfer to reactions involved in high Z element production.
A postulated reaction model, RIFEX (Reaction in a Film-Excited CompleX), is
under development to satisfy these key characteristics. A major feature of
RIFEX is that protons (p) interacting with the host Ni and neighboring
isotopes produces a relatively long lived atom-p complex with excitation
energies of orders of several MeV. *This allows production of elements such
as Ag with Q-value reactions. Seemingly, other products with a negative Q
value are produced via fission of compound nuclei. *This model will be
presented in detail in a future publication.

The total kinetic energy associated with the neutron in the test system would

A lot depends upon the magnitude of energy that is carried away by the

from the parts, then this process might explain the loss of heat.

Dave

In the context of WL this might actually make sense. If the additional electron
mass required to create the neutron in the first place came at the expense of
thermal energy of the lattice, then the lattice would cool when the neutrons
were created. If they decay without fusing, then on average about 580 keV is
lost with the antineutrino. (Some may also be lost with the neutrino when the
neutron is formed?)

RE: [Vo]:Missing Neutrons (hydrinos)

2012-06-16 Thread Jones Beene
It is easy to go over the top with dramatization on this one.

This scenario does not need to involve parallel universes (in the SciFi
sense) nor anything theological. In fact, Dirac's reciprocal space works
fine - as the repository for deep hydrinos, and with no other fictional
baggage so to speak.

BTW - for those who do not grasp what actually happened in the EPRI reports,
here is a short synopsis of Ahern's experiments. First, there is a well
insulated reactor with numerous RTDs for accurate temperature measurement.
The reactor is filled with pressurized hydrogen and various sample
nanopowders - including an inert control powder. There is a resistance
heater, drawing in the tens of watts. The current is kept absolutely
constant to the heater, so that there is no variation on P-in during the
run. 

With the 'control', you will find from datalogging that a specific rate of
thermal transfer occurs between the outer RTD, where the heater is located
and the inner. Hydrogen under pressure is a good conductor of heat so this
is normally only a few degrees. For example, in the control setup (no active
powder) one might see 350C on the outside and 340C on the inside. The
difference is minimal and never varies.

OK - when one switches from the control to active nanopowder, things get
interesting and if there is excess energy from the interaction of hydrogen
with the powder, there will be an inversion, so that the inner RTD becomes
hotter - often much hotter than the outer. That happens with nano-nickel,
and the resulting temperature can be close to 100 degrees inverted. This is
NOT calorimetry, but there are implications to be firmed up on further
experimentation.

The interesting part (for this thread) is that with Titanium nanopowder,
instead of a temperature inversion indicating gain, you get an anomalous
sink. For instance, instead of an expected 10 degree drop (out-to-in) the
spread can be much higher, an order of magnitude perhaps, indicating active
cooling. 

Any round numbers above are for illustration purposes only; but the results
are shocking and significant in both anomalies - heat and cooling. And guess
what, the cooling anomaly could be almost as important as the heating, in
terms of new physics. 

EVEN IF THERE IS NO PATH TO COMERCIALIZATION - for an active cooling
anomaly, it could be important if it points the way to an accurate
understanding of the heat. That is where this is going.

I haven’t heard a better explanation for active nano-cooling than the
disappearance of matter from one spatial dimension into reciprocal space.
This space may not be a true dimension, but a fractal instead. Fractal is
being used in the original way to mean a fractional dimension. Plus, the
matter which is lost may not be a neutron, per se, but instead a
maximum-redundant hydrino.

Essentially, what I think happens with nano-titanium cooling is that the
nanoparticles - which are a strong Mills' catalyst - collapse to the full
redundancy in one continuous step - where there is both heat release on
shrinkage, followed immediately by massive heat loss. on the atomic level,
when the hydrino essentially disappears into reciprocal space. The net
result is active cooling. Why it only happens with titanium needs to be
answered. Perhaps it is a momentum effect of some kind.

E=mc^2 works both ways, apparently - and when mass disappears - in a
dimensional sense, so does the corresponding energy it contained. This is
seen as heat removal from a hot reactor. The active species does not have to
be 'mirror matter' as in the original article - but if that helps in

This isn't about need Robin - it is about explaining results. Most of the

you know of any other reports of anomalous cooling?

 Hydrino molecules can quite easily disappear into ordinary space. They can
simply migrate through the atomic interstices of the container wall into the
atmosphere. 

Yes, of course ... at least if they are real - then that is probably true.
But in that case there is only excess heat - not anomalous cooling. 

IOW, that will not explain a cooling effect, as you acknowledge, so why
mention it? The Ahern results are beyond any possible chemical effect. The
purpose of the posting was to present a possible rationale involving a new
kind of fractional hydrogen reaction, where the assumptions are very
different. Net cooling instead of heating. 

The common denominator seems to be simple - if neutrons can do this
disappearing act, then virtual neutrons (maximum redundancy hydrogen) can
possibly do the same. In neither case am I claiming it is anything more than
a remote possibility.

When I opined that there could be some kind of momentum effect what I
meant was that in certain circumstances the entire sequence from atomic
hydrogen to virtual neutron happens as one unstoppable progression, unlike
the Mills' hydrino - which is a sequential chain of reactions which occurs
in up to 137 steps. 

After all, this thread is merely the start of a new hypothesis, at this time
- with which to explain new phenomena which previously was beyond
explanation. Maybe it will not survive more accurate objections, but one
cannot disqualify it easily by suggesting that another unproved presumption
(Mills hydrinos operating in only one way) makes it not possible :-) simply
because Mills himself may have overlooked another feature of a broader

 They don't need to disappear into reciprocal space. 

This isn't about need Robin - it is about explaining results. Most of the 
time, of course, this kind of cooling reaction simply does not happen. Do you 
know of any other reports of anomalous cooling?

 Hydrino molecules can quite easily disappear into ordinary space. They can 
 simply migrate through the atomic interstices of the container wall into the 
 atmosphere. 

Yes, of course ... at least if they are real - then that is probably true. But 
in that case there is only excess heat - not anomalous cooling. 

IOW, that will not explain a cooling effect, as you acknowledge, so why mention 
it? The Ahern results are beyond any possible chemical effect. The purpose of 
the posting was to present a possible rationale involving a new kind of 
fractional hydrogen reaction, where the assumptions are very different. Net 
cooling instead of heating. 

The common denominator seems to be simple - if neutrons can do this 
disappearing act, then virtual neutrons (maximum redundancy hydrogen) can 
possibly do the same. In neither case am I claiming it is anything more than a 
remote possibility.

When I opined that there could be some kind of momentum effect what I meant 
was that in certain circumstances the entire sequence from atomic hydrogen to 
virtual neutron happens as one unstoppable progression, unlike the Mills' 
hydrino - which is a sequential chain of reactions which occurs in up to 137 
steps. 

After all, this thread is merely the start of a new hypothesis, at this time - 
with which to explain new phenomena which previously was beyond explanation. 
Maybe it will not survive more accurate objections, but one cannot disqualify 
it easily by suggesting that another unproved presumption (Mills hydrinos 
operating in only one way) makes it not possible ☺ simply because Mills himself 
may have overlooked another feature of a broader phenomena.

1. If a neutron can disappear into the vacuum, then:
1a. Can a neutron pop INTO this space (spontaneous formation)?
. For every neutron that exits, does another enter this space (to balance 
hings, remember CoE!)?
. If either #1 or #1a are possible, and not #2, then CoE gets tossed out the 
indow!
Altho, for all practical purposes, CoE would still appear to be intact, BUT, if 
e can optimize the popping out of existence within some object, and it happens 
ften enough, then it would be possible to violate CoE within that object.

Let me just say this. There have been for a long time - reports of spontaneous 
(anomalous) hydrogen showing up in extreme vacuum conditions. Hydrogen from 
nowhere, essentially. But that phenomenon, if true, has morphed into fringe 
religious bogosity so one hesitates to even mention it. There was an article in 
IE and it has been picked up here, for what it is worth:

http://blog.hasslberger.com/2006/06/hydrogen_from_space_the_aether.html

This is not the same as neutrons from nowhere, except that the neutron has only 
a short half-life, and you expect to see hydrogen in the end. Does that account 
for the hydrogen phenomenon, and if so, where is the decay energy? Does 
trans-dimensional transfer happen isothermally, regardless? (at least from the 
perspective of the host)

That would be the only way it could happen.

Since the subject has arisen, it is worth mentioning that the
spontaneous generation of matter happens in steady-state
cosmological theories propounded by Fred Hoyle and others.

Neutrons escaping to a parallel world?

In a paper recently published in EPJ C¹, researchers hypothesised the
existence of mirror particles to explain the anomalous loss of
neutrons observed experimentally. The existence of such mirror matter
had been suggested in various scientific contexts some time ago,
including the search for suitable dark matter candidates.

RE: [Vo]:Missing Neutrons

2012-06-15 Thread Jones Beene
Good find - and the implications are a bit convoluted. The curious thing is
that mirror matter neutrons (or deep hydrinos) will explain anomalous heat
loss quite nicely.

As you may remember, Ahern reported that some of his Arata-style samples
demonstrated anomalous heat LOSS (more of the samples show gain than loss,
and only a few showed nothing).

This paper, in fact - could explain anomalous heat loss better than anything
I have seen thus far.

BTW the all of the nanopowder samples which showed thermal loss were made of
nano-titanium embedded in zirconia. All of the nickel and palladium samples
showed gain.
