Ø  Very cool of MFMP to do this...  Maybe they can try replicating it [muon 
detector for mobile phone] ?

 

 

Problem is – the “detector” is the iphone camera with the lens covered, which 
will pick up all kinds of high energy radiation. The app analyzes the “image”­ 
and if enough pixels light up, it gets recorded as an event – exactly like a 
similar app does for detecting gamma radiation. There cannot be very much 
discrimination between the two apps, so all this will tell you is that some 
kind of radiation is coming through the lens cover… OTOH – this is good to 
know…. J

Science Institute, Physics Department, University of Iceland will present a
40 minute seminar/colloquium at SRI International (SRI, founded as Stanford
Research Institute) in Menlo Park, California, entitled, “Ultra-dense
Hydrogen and Low Energy Nuclear Reactions” (LENR), representing research he
has conducted with Leif Holmlid from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
