Once, in about every 10^20 reversible fusion events,  there is a beta decay
in the short time before the reversal can complete.

 

It is one of the rarest events in physics - but without it, our sun produces
no heat.

 

On earth, because of this rarity - an experimenter could run an LENR cell
for a thousand years and never see a single proton-proton fusion proceed to
deuterium

 

 

From: Harry Veeder 

It seems a bit more logical to suggest that the lack of gammas can be better
explained by the lack of the kind of nuclear reaction that produces gammas.
The most prevalent nuclear reaction in the Universe, reversible proton
fusion, produces no gammas. Shouldn't we be taking a closer look at RPF? 

Wikipedia says proton-proton fusion produces a neutrino and a positron.

Won't this result in an electron-positron anihilation and two gamma rays?

In reply to  David Roberson's message of Thu, 4 Apr 2013 19:51:27 -0400 (EDT):
Hi,
[snip]

Gamma rays are normally absorbed to some extent in normal matter. When such an
event occurs, the energy of the gamma mostly goes into ionizing an atom and
giving kinetic energy to the freed electron. Presumably the remaining ion shares
the momentum with the electron, IOW the ion gets a little kick as well.
The energetic electron can then go on to ionize thousands of other atoms.
Because it is a charged particle, the electron interacts strongly with other
electrons.

In this way, the energy of the gamma is thermalized.

That is my fear Jones.  A photon has a large energy to momentum ratio as 
compared to an electron.  I would expect to see Compton reflection of the high 
energy gamma as it collides with electrons.  It is very presumptuous to assume 
that the gammas will be absorbed quickly.  Does anyone see how both energy and 
momentum can be conserved during a collision between a high energy gamma and 
any number of electrons?


I suppose that one can look back at the point of origin of the gamma and 
mentally reverse the process.  In that case the nucleus recoiled with much 
less energy than the gamma while it by definition had to conserve momentum.  
Perhaps a large cloud of coupled electrons that scattered in every direction 
carrying off portions of the energy might be able to absorb the total energy.  
The random directions of the dispersion cloud of electrons could balance the 
momentum portion of the equation if a miracle occurred.  Now I know I am a 
heretic with an overactive imagination!

The problem with such ahigh energy gamma hitting an electron is that the total 
mass-energy of thetarget is only 2-3% of the mass-energy of the driver. This 
slight impediment doesnot even slow the gamma down very much. There could 
possibly be pair-productionbut to imagine that the re-emission was all

More disinformation. There is no possibility of nano-sized sites stopping
gamma radiation. This requires thick lead shielding.
 
..I have often wondered if an electron that is within the wavelength of a gamma
(i.e. a near field energy transfer) might absorb the energy as kinetic 
energy.
For a 23.8 MeV gamma the wavelength is 52 fm. For a Mills' Hydrino this is too
small for even the smallest Hydrino, however if my version is correct, then it
should be possible for f/H with a p  32.

Re: [Vo]:A pile of clues... should be obvious by now!

2013-04-04 Thread Axil Axil
MIT Prof. Peter L. Hagelstein stated in an interview as follows:

So after a lot of years of work on it, about 10 years ago we found a model
that actually did something like that. It's remarkable! It turns out in the
physics literature, there's a model called the 'Spin-Boson Model' that's
basically a fundamental quantum mechanics model, so you have a harmonic
oscillator and you hook it up to what's called a two level system — that's
just an idealisation, it's a little bit of physics having to do with two of
the energy levels in a more complicated system. But it makes the math
really simple, so the resulting model is one you can analyze to death.
People have studied that model now for between 40-60 years, depending on
how you count them. This model predicts the 30 or 50 fold, or the ability
to break up a two level system quantum into, for example, into nearly 30
individual quanta.

Axil says:
Let us now address another quantum optics model describing polaritons:

The Jaynes–Cummings model.



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaynes%E2%80%93Cummings_model

Starting at the very bottom, the most basic underlying model that teaches
us how waves/particles can resonate is the Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM). It
describes the system of a two-level atom interacting with a quantized mode
of an optical cavity, with or without the presence of light (in the form of
a bath of electromagnetic radiation that can cause spontaneous emission and
absorption).

MIT Prof. Peter L. Hagelstein continues in the interview as follows:

What we found is the way that the model does it, it can do it, but it's
hindered. There's a destructive interference effect that goes on, that
makes the effect relatively weak. What we found, is that if you added a
weird kind of loss to the model— a loss that you would expect in the cold
fusion scenario. The new model, with loss, is much more relevant to the
physical situation called fusion than otherwise. But this weird kind of
loss, it breaks the destructive interference, and it makes this energy
exchange go orders of magnitude faster. And instead of being a relatively
weak effect, it's now a very strong, it's a dominant effect. This model is
exactly what you need! It's a microscopic engine to take big quanta and
chop it up into little tiny quanta. So that's what we've found.

Axil says:

This is Fano interference active in an optical cavity to localize EMF
radiation to the near field by eliminated far field emissions.

There seems to be two different overlapping threads going on here, since
Mark's original suggestion relating to subatomic quark resonance was
hijacked (by moi) in favor of another related subject: lack of gammas in
LENR. Apologies for that. 

However, in regard to the latter, the take-away message should be that MeV
quanta (gamma radiation) once emitted, can only be downshifted in steps -
going down to 100s of keV, 10s of keV, hundreds of eV (EUV), 10s of eV (UV
light), visible light and then to IR light, etc. All of this must be
accomplished in dozens or hundreds of distinct steps involving millions of
target atoms. Lewis Larsen wants to tell the world of physics that no, it is
possible to do it all in one step, in one particle.

The reason this claim of W-L theory is ludicrous can be seen every day by
looking up. Our sun makes gamma radiation as its prime energy product -  yet
x-rays, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwave, and radio waves are all
emitted - and the proportion of IR is well-understood. Of course this is not
LENR, but it is the model for gamma downshifting, and if you want to assert
two distinct miracles - then it is wise to show some other evidence than the
very phenomenon you wish to explain - with your outrageous claim.

In the sun, gammas cannot escape without colliding with protons and
electrons and losing a small portion of their energy on every collision -
over and over and over. The same should be true on earth IF gammas are
actually emitted. Moreover, a gamma ray typically spends 30,000 years
colliding with atomic particles and re-emitting energy at a slightly lower
energy level on the sun, until it finally escapes. That is a lot of
downshifting, and to assert that it can all be avoided, because we need to
make gammas do that, in order to make our theory work is essentially what
the rest of science is being asked to believe. 

Don't ask me to explain the calculations that provided this million-day
solar gamma lag time - but it is part of the standard model. Hagelstein - at
least, suggests another pathway (phonon collective vibrations) that spreads
the MeV radiation out over trillions of atoms in the metal lattice, unlike
W-L which suggest a single particle downshifting. Almost no one in physics
believes Hagelstein is correct on this, but he is far closer to making a

I know little of theory, but that has long been my gut feeling. Some cold
fusion cells to produce gamma rays but I think this is a secondary effect,
or something completely unrelated such as fracto fusion.

I have heard many theory presentations in which the author speculates that
some complex mechanism manages to catch nearly all -- but not quite all! --
of the gammas before they come out of the lattice. This seems extremely
unlikely to me. How could the mechanism be so exquisitely tuned to make it
work 99.99% of the time but not the last faction of times?

Here is something that often happens in science and technology. People
discover X, and then later on they discover Y. Because they happen to find
X first, they assume that Y is a variant or subset of X. They assume that X
sets the general rule and Y must be something along similar lines which
follows the same rules and where there is a variation that variation must
be explained separately as a special case.

It often turns out that Y is the general case, and X was a variation. Or it
turns out that the two of them are unrelated.

We naturally assume that cold fusion is some sort of variation of plasma
fusion, because we discovered plasma fusion first. For all anyone can say,
it might turn out that plasma fusion is an unusual high-temperature variety
of cold fusion.

In the case of technology, we develop a method of doing something and then
when new and better machines are developed we bring along the old method
out of force of habit. We assume that this is how you should do things so
let's continue doing it that way, even though the circumstances have
changed. This is why newly invented machines look quaint were oddly out of
kilter a few years later. The early automobiles looked like horseless
carriages because they were, in the literal sense. A carriage for a horse
can be built high off the road. Making automobiles that way is a bad idea
because they travel much faster and they are blown around.  Model T Fords
driven in windy conditions or high speed blew all over the road. It took 20
or 30 years before people began to make automobiles streamlined and low to
the road.

2013-04-04 Thread David Roberson
Jones, I forgive you for hijacking the original thread since I was an 
accomplice.  I would like to understand the RPF reaction better if possible and 
to determine why it does not emit a gamma as you point out.  If the collisions 
between the protons are elastic, then the energy could be conserved by recoil 
behavior.  A great deal depends upon how long the two protons are under the 
influence of the strong force once the collision occurs.


It might be difficult to make a determination of the amount of time during 
which the protons are in close proximity.  I would expect the pair to be highly 
excited in this situation with plenty of energy available to emit.  But, the 
energy available is also the amount required to break apart the reacting 
protons as well and that seems to be what ultimately occurs.  I guess one must 
attempt to understand why the energy is not emitted as a gamma leaving the 
protons connected which is the question at hand.


Is there proof that the gamma emission does not occur?  In the center of the 
sun one might encounter an enormous flux of gammas of this binding energy and 
more due to excess kinetic energy among the reacting protons.  Perhaps the bath 
of high energy gammas continue to encounter the proton pairs and supply enough 
energy to break them apart as it becomes absorbed.


We do know that occasionally a proton pair becomes a deuterium nucleus and the 
process continues to supply heat to the solar system.  I believe that the 
energy required to break apart the deuterium nuclei is not available in large 
enough quantities so many of them remain intact.


Is it well understood why the pair of excited protons does not emit a gamma to 
lower their energy?  Is there proof that this does not occur only to be 
restored by the vast flood of gammas from other similar processes?  I ask these 
questions because I do not know the answers and would like to understand why 
certain behavior is observed.

Gamma suppression does not cause LENR; it is accidental to the LENR
reaction.

However, it is still very important. It is the principle demarcation line
between LENR and LENR+.

The LENR reaction emits gammas and this energy release destroys the nuclear
active sites. The LENR reactions will soon stop as the NAE are blown apart
and cratered.

On the other hand, LENR+ thermalizes the energy that is produced in the NAE
as a secondary mechanism, but this thermalization of the reaction allows
the LENR+ reaction to occur over and over again from the same NAE for
months on end.

When all this is considered, gamma thermalization is far more puzzling than
we think; it is connected to the LENR reaction but not required by it.

This type of mechanism is not supported by the WL theory. Electrons
produce both the reaction and the gamma thermalization.

Electrons cannot do both jobs simultaneously. There must be a second
optional mechanism that these elections undergo to cause suppress the
gammas. I believe that that mechanism is Bose-Einstein condensation; a
ubiquitous condition in the lattice that is readily and continuously
restored and refreshed as the LENR+ reaction occurs.

LENR, but it is the model for gamma downshifting, and if you want to assert
two distinct miracles - then it is wise to show some other evidence than the
very phenomenon you wish to explain - with your outrageous claim.

 

Gamma suppression does not cause LENR; it is accidental to the LENR
reaction.

 

However, it is still very important. It is the principle demarcation line

Nonsense. There is no such thing as gamma suppression . It is a complete
fabrication of W-L without a shred of evidence AFAIK. if you have the

The LENR reaction emits gammas and this energy release destroys the nuclear
active sites. The LENR reactions will soon stop as the NAE are blown apart
and cratered.

 

More disinformation. There is no possibility of nano-sized sites stopping

On the other hand, LENR+ thermalizes the energy that is produced in the NAE
as a secondary mechanism, but this thermalization of the reaction allows the

So, out of all the erudite Vorts, no one can answer the
following simple questions:

Why are the UP-spin quarks on OPPOSITE sides of the proton
from the DOWN-spin quarks???

Short answer: erudition eroded... alternatively: not simple.

Long answer. A proton is composed of two up quarks and one down quark, so
they logically cannot be arranged as opposites. A handy visualization is
Borromean rings and a more technical version is the Efimov state.

Why, in some nuclear interactions, do two gammas go shooting
off in OPPOSITE directions???

That one appears to be conservation of momentum, but the connection to quark
spin, if there is one, is not clear. 

Wiki sez: In classical mechanics, linear momentum or translational momentum
is the product of the mass and velocity of an object Linear momentum is
a conserved quantity and the gamma has equivalent mass, even if the rest
mass is zero.

Why is the magnetic field PERPENDICULAR to the E-field???  

This is also related to momentum in a way (if one is trying to find a
connection) - since the EM wave moves forward by transferring energy back
and forth between the two fields, and that momentum is conserved. As one
field collapses the other field builds, so the waves must be at right angles
to each other, since at any other angle there would be inequality in the
transfer.

Hi,
[snip]
An example of a new branch would be:

d + d ? 4He + M,

where M is a nearby nucleus that shares the energy of the reaction as a
spectator (all of this should be familiar as Ron Maimon's idea).  This
conserves momentum somehow.

The spectator nucleus goes in one direction, the 4He goes in the opposite
direction. In the center of mass frame (which is also the frame of all the
nuclei at the moment of fusion), the momentum of each product is equal in
magnitude and opposite in sign, hence net zero.
This means that the energy of the reaction is divided up such that the lighter
nucleus gets the lion's share of the energy (because m * V = M * -v), and the
energy of each particle = (momentum^2)/(2*mass) ).

E.g. 

D + D + 106Pd = 106Pd + 0.865 MeV + 4He + 22.935 MeV

(Total energy is 23.8 MeV)

To put it in simple terms, the presence of the spectator nucleus provides the
4He, something to push off against, like a swimmer pushing off against the end
of the pool. The spectator nucleus also gets some of the kinetic energy, IOW it
moves away a little when pushed.

In hot fusion, the newly formed excited 4He nucleus has nothing to push off
against, and hence has no option other than to fission again, into either 
He3 + n or T + p. Very occasionally in hot fusion you get 4He + gamma.
Once again, with each of the two particles having equal and opposite momentum.

Hi,

The higher the energy, the smaller the body, going down from outer electron
shells to individual nucleons and, presumably, quarks.  But as the size
decreases, the probability of an interaction will no doubt go down in
corresponding measure, because the size of the targets decreases as well.
 So by the time you get to gammas, they will largely pass through a region
of interest.  For photons of high enough energy, the mean free path
generally goes up, meaning they travel farther and farther through the
material.  Once we're at gammas, I believe a typical metal will be largely
transparent to them.



This is a false assumption. Nanoplasmoics show strong coupling between
light and electrons at 10 to the minus 8 power of the wavelength of light.

This same ability to couple gammas to electrons external to the nucleus is
probable.

The ability of gammas to penetrate various elements can be calculated using a
similar approach to that which I recently suggested in regard to neutrons. The
appropriate constants are tabularized here:-

Your inexactitude in thinking is hard to overcome. Let us try another piece
of info as follows:

When Rossi first stated his demonstrations and the public comments about
them, his first few shows were marred by a troublesome condition during
startup and shutdown where significant gamma radiation was produced.
If you remember, Celani said about the January 14 demo as follows:

After various vicissitudes, because the reactor was having major problems,
some inner resistors had broken down; Mr. Rossi came out of the room
delighted: The reactor has started.  Before he came out, a few minutes
before, I had independently measured that both the gamma detector and the
mini Geiger had hit the top of the scale, whereas the two detectors of
electromagnetic interference were not showing anything.

This meant that a short but intense emission of gamma radiation had taken
place.

But while the reactor was in operation, at the demonstration on January 14,
no measurable nuclear radiation was detected. Villa wrote:

The energy power input and output and gamma radiations were measured
before, during and after the active phase of the system, as well as the
hydrogen consumption. While a net energy output was observed, no γ excess
(with energy above 200 keV has been measured above the natural background
level (180 Hz rate in single mode, compared to an expected rate largely in
excess of 1 MHz).

Rossi eventually fixed this problem by getting his reactor up to operating
temperature before startup by using a secondary heater.
It was also suspected that Rossi's early reactors would cease to function
after 48 hours. This failure was suspected to have caused the DGT-Rossi
breakup.

This peculiar reactor behavior suggests a separation between the mechanism
that causes the LENR reaction and the mechanism that down-shifts the gamma
radiation to heat. This behavior leads to the conclusion that there exist
two separate and distinct LENR reaction mechanisms that are simultaneously
active within the nuclear active zone.

Recapitulating, one mechanism drives the LENR reaction and another
mitigates the resultant gamma radiation.

These two mechanisms may be symbiotic and reinforcing but the gamma
mitigation mechanism is not required to startup or maintain the reaction.

That is my fear Jones.  A photon has a large energy to momentum ratio as

that the gammas will be absorbed quickly.  Does anyone see how both energy and 
momentum can be conserved during a collision between a high energy gamma and 
any number of electrons?


I suppose that one can look back at the point of origin of the gamma and 
mentally reverse the process.  In that case the nucleus recoiled with much less 
energy than the gamma while it by definition had to conserve momentum.  Perhaps 
a large cloud of coupled electrons that scattered in every direction carrying 
off portions of the energy might be able to absorb the total energy.  The 
random directions of the dispersion cloud of electrons could balance the 
momentum portion of the equation if a miracle occurred.  Now I know I am a 
heretic with an overactive imagination!

Rossi has consistently refused to provide details of what is going on inside 
the E-Cat reactor, but he has mentioned that gamma rays have been detected. In 
a video interview when asked about whether the E-Cat was a ‘cold fusion’ 
technology he said, “we have found traces of fusion because we have found 511 
kev gamma rays at the output, which is the emission of a positron and an 
electron, and a positron is the product of a proton turning into a neutron, so 
we have some kind of fusion  inside, but I do not think this is the main energy 
source.” Exactly how these gamma rays are shielded is not clear, but Rossi has 
mentioned in the past that lead is used.
 
I think you should dream up another source for occasional gamma emissions to 
support your illusion other than radium.

In the case where a positron and electron annihilate each other the 
conservation of momentum requires that the two photons be emitted in exact 
opposition and with exactly the same energy.  Perhaps it is possible to assume 
that if the two opposing photons are observed then a process of this type 
occurs.

Let me emend that -- in d+d plasma fusion, you have the three branches:

1. d+d → 4He + ɣ (rare)
2. d+d → 3He + n (50 percent)
3. d+d → t + p (50 percent)

In (1), there is a 4He, and it is not traveling very quickly.  So the 4He
in the proposed branch with the spectator, (4), say:

4. d+d + M → 4He + M,

where M is on both sides of the reaction (and doesn't undergo a change),
this 4He would be travelling much faster than the one in (1).  It would be
traveling on the order of twice as fast as the heavier particles in (2) or
(3), in an approximate sense.

Published September 25, 2009 | Phys. Rev. Focus 24, 12 (2009) | DOI:
10.1103/PhysRevFocus.24.12

Researchers detected the recoil motion of a bead when fluorescent molecules
on its surface began emitting photons.
Radiation pressure-the force light exerts on matter-is so slight that it's
usually evident only in the atomic world or in the vacuum of space. Now a
pair of studies published in the 27 February Physical Review Letters and
the October Physical Review E suggests that a common laser-and-microscope
technique is sensitive enough to measure the recoil felt by a micron-sized
silica bead emitting light from its surface. Researchers used lasers to
trap a bead and measure the forces acting on it, while simultaneously
recording the light generated by molecules coating the bead's surface. They
report that the forces acting on the bead were correlated with the
intensity of emitted light, as would be expected if emitted photons were
nudging a bead back and forth like the exhaust from tiny thrusters.

The experiments used a type of photonic force microscopy (PFM), which is
used to measure forces acting on microscopic beads suspended in liquid. PFM
specialists first isolate a bead in the focus of a laser beam, creating an
optical trap. The bead then acts like a tethered buoy. Liquid molecules
randomly nudge it, but the trapping laser exerts a spring-like force that
draws the bead back to its starting point. By tracking the position of the
bead using a separate laser, researchers can measure the size of the bead's
jostling motions in the trap, which tells them the strength of the
fluctuating forces acting on it. Some researchers have observed signs of
radiation from the laser alone pressing on trapped beads, but those beads
were absorbing light rather than emitting it.

A team led by Dmitri Petrov of the Institute of Photonic Sciences in
Barcelona, Spain, wanted to see if PFM was sensitive enough to pick up the
recoil of beads trapped in a solution of photon-emitting molecules that
adhere to a bead's surface. To maximize the rate of photon emission, the
team dotted its beads with clusters of silver atoms, mimicking metal
nano-spheres that have been found to enhance the glow of nearby dye
molecules.

For their first experiment, published in February, the researchers trapped
two-micron-wide beads in a solution of the dye crystal violet. The dye
molecules convert a small amount of incoming light energy into atomic
vibrations and then emit light of slightly longer wavelength (Raman
scattering). The correlation was clear: when the team switched on the
pump laser to activate the dye, the bead's displacement, averaged over
many fluctuations, increased, corresponding to forces of up to 240
femtonewtons (1 femtonewton = 10 -15  newtons). The researchers calculated
the power of light emitted from the bead at 1 microwatt, which is quite
amazing, says Satish Rao, a post-doctoral fellow in the Barcelona lab. No
one else has been able to say how much light really comes off this
material.

In the follow-up experiment, Petrov and his colleagues tracked the
bleaching, or gradual fading, of the fluorescent molecule rhodamine, which
glows yellow under green light. In photobleacing, fluorescent molecules
fade strongly after a few tens of seconds. Accordingly, when the team
focused a green laser on the bead, it experienced a sudden force of about
300 femtonewtons, which quickly plummeted along with the fluorescent light
intensity. On the face of it, it's pretty fantastic, says optical trapper
David Grier of New York University. The recoil force of photons is the
basis for laser cooling of atoms and molecules. Seeing it for a
macroscopic object strikes me as something of a tour de force, he says.

Rao says this type of PFM could offer a more precise way of measuring the
efficiency and intensity of other light-emitting molecules, including the
bleaching of fluorescent dyes. Lukas Novotny, a nano-optics researcher at
Rochester University in New York state, doesn't see any immediate
applications. For me the beauty is really the possibility of measuring
light through a

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaynes%E2%80%93Cummings_model

 Starting at the very bottom, the most basic underlying model that teaches
 us how waves/particles can resonate is the Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM). It
 describes the system of a two-level atom interacting with a quantized mode
 of an optical cavity, with or without the presence of light (in the form of
 a bath of electromagnetic radiation that can cause spontaneous emission and
 absorption).

 MIT Prof. Peter L. Hagelstein continues in the interview as follows:

 What we found is the way that the model does it, it can do it, but it's
 hindered. There's a destructive interference effect that goes on, that
 makes the effect relatively weak. What we found, is that if you added a
 weird kind of loss to the model— a loss that you would expect in the cold
 fusion scenario. The new model, with loss, is much more relevant to the
 physical situation called fusion than otherwise. But this weird kind of
 loss, it breaks the destructive interference, and it makes this energy
 exchange go orders of magnitude faster. And instead of being a relatively
 weak effect, it's now a very strong, it's a dominant effect. This model is
 exactly what you need! It's a microscopic engine to take big quanta and
 chop it up into little tiny quanta. So that's what we've found.

 like the old Rutherford reaction picture that nuclear physics is based on.
 So that's the basic problem that I've been working on for a great many

 The big problem is one that has to do with the quantum mechanics issue.
 The nuclear energy comes in a big energy quantum, and if it didn't get
 broken up, then the big energy quantum would get expressed as energetic
 particles, as normally happens in nuclear reactions. So the approach we've
 taken is that we've said the only conceivable route for making sense of
 these observations at all, is that the big energy quanta have to get sliced
 and diced up into a very very large number if much smaller energy quanta.
 The much larger number is on the order of several hundred million. In NMR
 physics and optical physics, people are familiar with breaking up a large
 quantum into perhaps 30 smaller pieces, you could argue that there are some
 experiments where you could argue that maybe that numbers as high as 100 or
 so. It's unprecedented that you could take an MeV quantum and chop it up
 into bite sized pieces that are 10s of meV.

A Fano interference is an Interference between a background and a resonant
scattering process that produces the asymmetric line-shape.

In a lattice,  the background frequency is infrared heat, the resonant
scattering process is dipole hole/electron oscillation.

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

Fano interference blocks EMF radiation out of the cavity, and redirects it
inward to focus on the inside of the cavity.

Fano resonance is a means to concentrate EMF into a sub-nanometer volume by
imposing a dark mode into the EMF.

The weird kind of loss is the loss of far field EMF radiation.

This process produces EMF that are near or at the atomic scale in a ultra

I agree with you Jones.  The only way to explain this process is to assume that 
the gammas are not emitted at any time and that the energy from the reactions 
is shared among the atoms surrounding it.  I have been looking for evidence 
that fusion can take place in the compact environment of a cold fusion NAE in a 
manner that is very different from that occurring within a plasma.  The system 
difference is evident and I have not seem papers describing known fusion events 
recorded within a metal matrix where gammas are emitted at the expected levels.


I proposed an experiment where a palladium cube loaded with deuterium is 
subjected to a flux of muons as a way to induce conditions that are known to 
result in fusion.  If this does not result in the release of a number of 
gammas, then evidence is obtained that fusion within a metal matrix is 
different than that occurring within a gas.  Of course, muon induced fusion 
might behave differently than normal LENR activity.  The more clues that we 
obtain about the behavior of LENR, the faster we can understand the mechanism.

I agree with you Jones.  The only way to explain this process is to assume
that the gammas are not emitted at any time and that the energy from the
reactions is shared among the atoms surrounding it

 

Then you will get a kick out of the story from Krivit. LOL - April 2nd. He
was a day late and a dollar short on this one, but Larsen's attempt to
answer questions about why deadly gamma radiation is not emitted in LENR is
juvenile at best. The proponents of this BS should be ashamed.

David,
Gammas that never happened  might be hidden by relativistic effects.. how 
much Gamma radiation would the near C paradox twin see? Or more appropriately 
how much radiation would a twin standing on an event horizon see? What does 
time dilation do the radiation? The large displacement of an equivalent 
acceleration gravity well or the near luminal speeds of a spacecraft are needed 
to compress spacetime in a Haisch- Rueda type theory [car accelerating into 
rainfall].. the suppression afforded by the Casimir geometry subtracts from 
said Haisch-Rueda rainfall analogy making a much quicker cheaper way to create 
a difference in what Puthoff calls vacuum pressure[rainfall], [ether] ..it is 
the same Pythagorean relationship between time and space without the energy 
requirements but in a negative direction. The Pythagorean elationship also 
brings into argument the radiation path since the the spatial -temporal axis 
perceived by the relativistic protons are out of phase with the spatial- 
temporal  axis we are experiencing here in the macro [unsupressed] world 
outside the NAE. Would the radiation propagate out away from a reaction forever 
trapped in that inertial frame shunted past us along what we perceive as the 
temporal axis or does the radiation experience a lorentzian translation as the 
compression mitigates with distance from the confinement?

It has been observed that Gamma radiation occurs sometimes in a LENR
reaction and under other conditions, it does not; gamma energy transfer is
conditional in a LENR reaction.

A condition in the LENR reaction affects the formation of gammas. Gamma
formation or lack of it is not central to the cause of the LENR reaction,
it is accidental to it.
When Gamma radiation appears, the NAE is destroyed and the LENR reaction
stops. When no Gammas are produced, the NAE is preserved as active.

Dave stated:

in the compact environment of a cold fusion NAE in a manner that is very
different from that occurring within a plasma.

 

When one looks at subatomic particles as dipolar oscillations, and within
the NAE, all those oscillations being aligned and IN-PHASE, they will serve
as energy sinks for a specific wavelength of energy.  Thus, the amount of
energy that would have been emitted in a gamma is distributed as smaller
packets amongst the large number of IN-phase oscillators. 

 

This all reminds me of a PhysOrg article I mentioned a few years ago where
the scientists had isolated two atoms, side by side, and cooled to near 0K.
they could watch as one of the atoms remained completely still, while the
other would wiggle, because it had a quantum of heat energy and thus, [my
conclusion] the internal oscillators were out-of-balance, which causes the
entire atom to 'shake'. What was interesting is that they could do something
(don't remember what) that would cause that quantum of heat to xfer from the
shaking atom to the still one and, you guessed it, the one that was still
was now shaking and the former holder of the quantum of heat was now still.

 

Back to Dave's statement.

Does the gamma get emitted, but then immediately absorbed by the
'Collective' oscillations, or is it a direct xfer of quanta of energy as
explained above?  In either case, whatever the exact conditions that are
required, it would seem that those conditions result in BOTH new low-energy
nuclear processes AND an energy sink which (almost entirely) favors coupling
into lattice vibrations instead of emission of energetic particles.

Have you heard about SPASERS yet?

In order to explain the on again and off again nature of gamma radiation in
LENR, the cause of the LENR reaction should include two states, one that
mitigates gamma radiation and another state that can cause LENR and still
produce gamma radiation.

The Spaser (short for surface plasmon amplification by stimulated emission
of radiation) may be such a dual mode mechanism. The Spaser is the
nanoplasmonic analogs of lasers: instead of photons, spasers generate
coherent surface plasmons (collective electron oscillations at the surface
of a metal) in a resonant nanoparticle. It is a DIPOLE driven mechanism.

Heralded as ideal sources of coherent optical fields at the nanoscale, in a
lattice of a nanostructure, spasers combined with electronic density waves
on the surface of the nanostructure(nanowire).

A spaser pumped by these electrical currents, rather than by the bulkier
lasers used thus far in Nanoplasmonics. But recent theoretical papers have
argued that electrically driven nanospasers would require unrealistically
high currents. Now, Dabing Li presents a theoretical proposal for a
nanospaser device that is pumped electrically via a nanowire.
This is what happens in LENR+ reactors where nanowires pump spasers to
produce the LENR+ reaction.

The spaser is an EMF reaction that has two modes. One mode produces intense
EMF screening currents but not coherent local fields because the current
pumping is either under or over saturated with significant current loss.

The other mode is when coherent widespread radiation is established and
gamma radiation is spread among many coherent and entangled spacers.

By the way, WL think that spacers are causal in LENR but they just don’t
know how. If they are looking into spasers, maybe so should you.

2013-04-03 Thread David Roberson
Mark,


I like the idea of many individual oscillators being able to take the energy if 
that is possible.  Each of these would have to be at a frequency that is far 
lower than is normally emitted if a highly energetic gamma is to be replaced.  
Low frequency oscillators tend to operate a lower speeds by definition and I 
wonder how quickly the normal high frequency photon would be emitted.  Do you 
have any idea as to why the atom would be coaxed into the slower response than 
usual?


The only way I can understand an operation of this type is to assume that the 
nuclei are connected electro magnetically to a strong degree.  Maybe entangled 
would work, but the coupling would need to be strong.  And if entangled, a very 
large number of resonators would need this coupling to share the load 
adequately.


I need a better understanding of how a large amount of energy contained within 
an excited nucleus can find alternate paths of escape.  The gammas tend to 
dominate escape from plasmas.  A metal matrix is far different than a plasma 
cloud.

I agree with you Jones.  The only way to explain this process is to assume that 
the gammas are not emitted at any time and that the energy from the reactions 
is shared among the atoms surrounding it.  I have been looking for evidence 
that fusion can take place in the compact environment of a cold fusion NAE in a 
manner that is very different from that occurring within a plasma.  The system 
difference is evident and I have not seem papers describing known fusion events 
recorded within a metal matrix where gammas are emitted at the expected levels. 

 

I proposed an experiment where a palladium cube loaded with deuterium is 
subjected to a flux of muons as a way to induce conditions that are known to 
result in fusion.  If this does not result in the release of a number of 
gammas, then evidence is obtained that fusion within a metal matrix is 
different than that occurring within a gas.  Of course, muon induced fusion 
might behave differently than normal LENR activity.  The more clues that we 
obtain about the behavior of LENR, the faster we can understand the mechanism.

The transfer of energy to and from the nucleus must be done totally through
EMF. Neutrons are not necessary to penetrate the nucleus, EMF will work
just fine. This EMF full duplex pipeline is how energy goes back and forth
between the nucleus and the lattice.

Unless a coherent EMF connection into the nucleus is established, the gamma
radiation will be emitted from the nucleus in a destructive and incoherent
way.

Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard (JCH) model

Next we move on to the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard (JCH) model. Because there
are millions of these hot-spots where spasers develop covering the combined
surfaces of all the micro-particles, the JCH model is a combination of the
Jaynes–Cummings model and the coupled cavities. The one-dimensional JCH
model consists of a chain of N-coupled single-mode cavities and each cavity
contains two-level atoms.

The tunneling effect comes from the junction between cavities which are an
analogy of the Josephson Effect.

The eigenstates of the JCH Hamiltonian in the two-excitation subspace for
the N-cavity system are examined in current nano research. This research
focuses on the existence of bound states as well as their features. It is
interesting to note that two repulsive bosonic atoms can form a bound pair
in an optical lattice. By analogy, the same will be true for polaritons.


 The JCH Hamiltonian also supports two-polariton bound states when the
photon-atom interaction is sufficiently strong.



In the LENR case, the coupling between photons and dipoles are very
strong.  In particular, the two polaritons associated with the bound states
exhibit a strong correlation such that they stay close to each other in
position space. The results discussed have been published in Two-polariton
bound states in the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model.


http://arxiv.org/pdf/1101.1366v1


If you’re up to it, the analytic solution of the eigenvalues and
eigenvectors in the strong coupling regime is also developed in this paper.
The time evolution of such a system is also considered for the cases of
different initial conditions.

Now that we have justified the development of a generalized condition of
Bose-Einstein condensation all over the surfaces of the micro-particles, we
can now roll in Kim’s BEC theory of LENR.

Hi Dave,

Realize that I’m only trying to apply a physical, 3-dimentional/geometry, to 
atoms and subatomic particles in a QUALitative way to explain COMMON 
observations that don’t have an explanation in QM or Classical models… I have 
not tried to bring any QUANTitative elements in, which is probably above my 
pay-grade… but think that would be fun and fruitful.  If my model sparks some 
thoughts by those more mathematically talented, that would be great…

 

In a plasma, the kinetic E of the individual particles is so high that one has 
to look at it as totally UNcorrelated movement; nothing is IN-phase.  A 
veritable free-for-all with things flying around in all directions and random 
collisions …  if enough heat (kinetic E) is present, then collisions occur with 
enough force to result in fusion events.  This is the brute-force fusion 
process that we all are taught, and likely goes on in stars.

 

Now, if you applied an E-field (and perhaps perpendicular B-field) throughout 
the plasma, then you might be able to get the plasma constituents to align and 
oscillate in sync, AND, if you then fire a particle (neutron or proton) into 
that ‘swarm’ of aligned particles, and perpendicular to its oscillation, fusion 
might be a whole lot easier…

 

My guess is that it would take an extremely strong E/B field to overcome the 
kinetic energy that has been imparted to the ions/e- that make up the plasma.  
All atoms (or are we talking just electrons?) want to shed any heat quanta so 
they are in perfect balance, but they can’t simply shed it to the vacuum… this 
shedding process MUST  involve some kind of coupling to something else (another 
atom or photon).   The situation just prior to formation of the plasma is that, 
because you’ve added so much energy to each atom, that as soon as one atom 
sheds a quantum of heat, it immediately gets another quantum from a neighbor… 
and all the atoms are so ‘out-of-balance’ due to the multiple quantums of heat 
that each has, that they literally shake themselves apart… voila… plasma.

 

The articles I referenced in my original posting indicate that not only 
electrons, but quarks (which make up nuclear particles) as well could be 
dipolar oscillations, only the quarks are oscillating orders of magnitude 
smaller distance (thus, much smaller nuclear diameter compared to atomic 
diameter) 

but orders of magnitude higher frequency.  Have you ever played 
ping-pong/table-tennis?  Take a ping-pong ball and drop it on the table, and 
then take your paddle and quickly restrict the balls vertical movement closer 
and closer to the tabletop.  What happens?  The oscillations of the ball speed 
up.

 

My guess is that if you take the frequency of oscillation of say the H 1s 
electron, and the diameter of the H-atom (i.e., the physical extent of that 
oscillation), over a 1 second span of time, it would be a constant.  That 
constant will be somehow harmonically related to the same constant calculated 
for a quark… much smaller physical distance (diam of nucleus) but much higher 
frequency.   And the speed of light in a vacuum is somehow part of these 
constants.  Could this model be a physical explanation for E=hv???

At the root of the Plasmon is the strong coupling between light and matter.
This matter includes electrons and ions in a dipole. The synchronized
vibrations of many dipoles in thermal equilibrium will provide a coherent
and entangled environment for this strong coupling.

It is reasonable to expect that this strong coherent and entangled coupling
can occur between photons, electrons and quarks.
If a resonance condition is properly established, then transformations
between these elements should be expected as happens between matter and

Dave, while we're taking bets, let me add in mine -- about gammas, my bet
agrees largely with Jones's and yours.  The important detail is that gammas
only occur via secondary reactions.

Here is the rationale. Photons at different energies have corresponding
wavelengths, and the wavelengths determine what the photons are likely to
interact with.  Photons of long wavelength will interact with large bodies
and photons of short wavelength will interact with increasingly smaller
bodies.  A similar thing appears to apply to electrons -- there is an
exciting experiment where they think they're able to start putting together
a 3D map of the internals of the proton (the location of the quarks and
gluons) [1].  They do this with electrons in the GeV range.  I think this
means the de Broglie waves are very narrow, so the electrons can interact
with something as small as a quark in a proton.

For photons in the lattice of a metal, they will interact with different
bodies according to their wavelength (and energy) as well.  Photons in the
eV will interact with outer shell metal lattice electrons and electrons
orbiting hydrogen atoms, and photons in the keV will interact with metal
inner shell electrons.  A photon in the MeV or thereabouts (i.e., a gamma
photon) will interact with nuclei and nucleons.  At high enough energies
you get photodisentigration, where a nucleon is knocked out of a nucleus,
and so forth.

The higher the energy, the smaller the body, going down from outer electron
shells to individual nucleons and, presumably, quarks.  But as the size
decreases, the probability of an interaction will no doubt go down in
corresponding measure, because the size of the targets decreases as well.
 So by the time you get to gammas, they will largely pass through a region
of interest.  For photons of high enough energy, the mean free path
generally goes up, meaning they travel farther and farther through the
material.  Once we're at gammas, I believe a typical metal will be largely
transparent to them.

This is all basic stuff, and any physicists reading this will have
encountered these ideas in the first year of their education.  And I
suspect that is a big reason they don't take LENR seriously -- they expect
nuclear reactions to produce gammas, and common sense says that there can't
be any gammas being produced when you look at what actually happens in the
LENR experiments.  On this point, it makes a lot of sense to me that they
are correct.

If there are no gammas, then (1) there is no fusion, except perhaps a
trivial kind that doesn't really deserve to be called fusion, or (2) there
is real fusion, and there is a modification of the branching ratios or
perhaps entirely new branches.  An example of a new branch would be:

d + d → 4He + M,

where M is a nearby nucleus that shares the energy of the reaction as a
spectator (all of this should be familiar as Ron Maimon's idea).  This
conserves momentum somehow.  Robin has proposed similar scenarios involving
hydrinos, so I take the general idea seriously that branches involving
gammas can be systematically suppressed under the right conditions.  This
would definitely be different than normal fusion.

This is a false assumption. Nanoplasmoics show strong coupling between

 within a plasma.  The system difference is evident and I have not seem
 papers describing known fusion events recorded within a metal matrix where
 gammas are emitted at the expected levels.

 I proposed an experiment where a palladium cube loaded with deuterium is
 subjected to a flux of muons as a way to induce conditions that are known
 to result in fusion.  If this does not result in the release of a number of
 gammas, then evidence is obtained that fusion within a metal matrix is
 different than that occurring within a gas.  Of course, muon induced fusion
 might behave differently than normal LENR activity.  The more clues that we
 obtain about the behavior of LENR, the faster we can understand the
 mechanism.

 Mark,

 Some of us only see a duck as a downer (cough, cough)

 ** **

 Anyway, and from one fringe-of-the-fringe LENR perspective, this has 
 strong

 force interaction written all over it, whether it is obvious to W-L

 proponents or not.

 ** **

 RPF(reversible proton fusion) would certainly interact with its surrounds

 via spin (magnons) and would shuttle from one state (Helium-2) to another

 (two protons) with only quark interactions to show for the experience. The

 net energy deposited (or removed) is small per event, but happens at the

 rate of blackbody phonon vibration (mid terahertz).

 ** **

 Thus even micro(eV) energy change per event can get amplified rapidly, if

 and when asymmetry is engineered into the reaction.

 ... hmmm... I'm now thinking of calling quark color-change as seen in 
 RPF

 as the quark-quack reaction ... nothing there but spin,

Hi Eric:

 

The article you reference

I for one would be interested in hearing other more knowledgeable people’s 
opinions on the point of my posting, which is that what is lacking in 
modern/mainstream atomic/nuclear physics is a physical model… HOW does one 
explain WHY we see certain *specific* observations like I pointed out in the 
original posting…

 

LENR is searching for a theoretical model, and it is not going to be found 
‘inside the box’…

Dave, while we're taking bets, let me add in mine -- about gammas, my bet 
agrees largely with Jones's and yours.  The important detail is that gammas 
only occur via secondary reactions.

Ha!  Yes, it seems you linked to the article about the quarks far earlier
than I did.  My apologies for not reading your original post more closely.
 I think I saw it during lunch on my iPhone and didn't have time to give it
the attention it deserved.

Yes, chiming in from knowledgeable people would be good too.  :)  It is fun
as an amateur to speculate, but not worth a whole lot in the big scheme of
things.

MIT Prof. Peter L. Hagelstein stated in an interview as follows:
*

So there are no significant amount of neutrons, there's no fast electrons,
there's no gamma rays. There's nothing you might expect if it were a more
normal nuclear reaction process. The basic statement here is that — if it's
real and if it's nuclear... the argument for it being nuclear is that
there's 4He (helium-4) observed in experiments, roughly one 4He for every
24 MeV of energy that's created. So what you need in the way of a
theoretical model, basically a new kind of mechanism that doesn't work like
the old Rutherford reaction picture that nuclear physics is based on. So
that's the basic problem that I've been working on for a great many years.

The big problem is one that has to do with the quantum mechanics issue. The
nuclear energy comes in a big energy quantum, and if it didn't get broken
up, then the big energy quantum would get expressed as energetic particles,
as normally happens in nuclear reactions. So the approach we've taken is
that we've said the only conceivable route for making sense of these
observations at all, is that the big energy quanta have to get sliced and
diced up into a very very large number if much smaller energy quanta. The
much larger number is on the order of several hundred million. In NMR
physics and optical physics, people are familiar with breaking up a large
quantum into perhaps 30 smaller pieces, you could argue that there are some
experiments where you could argue that maybe that numbers as high as 100 or
so. It's unprecedented that you could take an MeV quantum and chop it up
into bite sized pieces that are 10s of meV.

 impossible?

 ** **

 When one looks at subatomic particles as dipolar oscillations, and within
 the NAE, all those oscillations being aligned and IN-PHASE, they will serve
 as energy sinks for a specific wavelength of energy.  Thus, the amount of
 energy that would have been emitted in a gamma is distributed as smaller
 packets amongst the large number of IN-phase oscillators. 

 ** **

 This all reminds me of a PhysOrg article I mentioned a few years ago
 where the scientists had isolated two atoms, side by side, and cooled to
 near 0K… they could watch as one of the atoms remained completely still,
 while the other would wiggle, because it had a quantum of heat energy and
 thus, [my conclusion] the internal oscillators were out-of-balance, which
 causes the entire atom to ‘shake’. What was interesting is that they could
 do something (don’t remember what) that would cause that quantum of heat to
 xfer from the shaking atom to the still one and, you guessed it, the one
 that was still was now shaking and the former holder of the quantum of heat
 was now still.

 ** **

 Back to Dave’s statement…

 Does the gamma get emitted, but then immediately absorbed by the
 ‘Collective’ oscillations, or is it a direct xfer of quanta of energy as
 explained above?  In either case, whatever the exact conditions that are
 required, it would seem that those conditions result in BOTH new low-energy
 nuclear processes AND an energy sink which (almost entirely) favors
 coupling into lattice vibrations instead of emission of energetic particles.

 In the end, it should be crystal clear to anyone who understands nuclear

 engineering - that there is no possible way to adequately explain the 
 lack

 of gammas in LENR - other than that they never happened at all.

 I agree with you Jones.  The only way to explain this process is to
 assume that the gammas are not emitted at any time and that the energy from
 the reactions is shared among the atoms surrounding it.  I have been
 looking for evidence that fusion can take place in the compact environment
 of a cold fusion NAE in a manner that is very different from that occurring
