Re: [Vo]:Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides
Rossi has said that the SK reactor adheres to his patent that defines the use of nickel. and aluminum lithium hydride. He also states in his theory paper in chapter 4, the critical formation of ultra dense hydrogen as per Holmlid that he includes in his references. Rossi has gone completely with Holmlid tech.

RE: [Vo]:Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides
If the mechanics of transient superconductivity as laid out in this thread - are shown to produce a rapid expansion of previously condensed matter following the collapse of the (transient) magnetic field which was induced by the (transient) spintronics current – THEN – we have defined a most desirable and simplified situation since nuclear fusion itself is not required to show energy gain. In fact, all appearances indicate that the dynamics would amount to the same identical scenario as the Coulomb explosion (of Miley and many others). There could be incidental fusion but it is not powering the main thermal gain. As to “where” the excess energy comers from – since fusion would not be required – that source can easily be identified as nuclear binding energy (strong force mechanics). Gluons, in a word. Mass is still being converted into energy but without nuclear fusion. … which is a more intuitive model compared to the huge burden necessary to explain away the lack of gamma radiation. Jones

RE: [Vo]:Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides
Jones, Brian and Mark— I agree with the importance of the transient magnetic field in forcing the fusion of hydrogen isotopes in a single Pd lattice site to change to tritium deuterium or He (3 or 4) during the coherent systems changing energy states. The transitions happen as resonant conditions are established by the changing magnetic field, IMHO. And a two step process may happen as well. First a pairing of H isotopes in a tight spin 0 Cooper pair- like entity (still part of the coherent system) and second an change of a proton to a neutron with expulsion of an electron. The final result—a lower potential energy state of the coherent system, but higher kinetic energy of the electrons of the lattice. I may be that the transition occurs in more than one lattice site within the coherent system making it a more likely reaction as resonant conditions change. The size of the coherent system is important to retain a temperature of the lattice below its melting point. However, there is an increase of entropy of the coherent system, consistent with the 2nd Law of thermodynamics. It remains that the phonic lattice energy of the coherent system is given up to adjacent systems at as relatively slow pace reflecting normal conduction and radiant heat transfer.

RE: [Vo]:Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides
To clarify: “A photon cycling protocol could even be hidden away under the cover of 60 Hertz input” Most observers balk at such talk – that is, rapid cycling of temperature over a wide range in an actual operating environment, which is restrained by so-called thermal inertia – itself a fiction when it comes to small geometry – nano and below. On the surface, rapid cycling may not seem to relate well to actual thermal change over a wide range. However, if the relevant parameter being cycled is not temperature per se but “comperature” then oscillation could happen far more rapidly than actual extreme cycling of temperature suggests. “Comperature” would be the operative concept. It becomes a semantics issue. AFAIK the parameter of “comperature” was introduced by F. Grimer here years ago - but largely ignored as it bridges the gap between QM and macro reality in a way that may be uncomfortable to mechanical engineers. But it is useful in the present context of nano geometry. In short, comperature can be defined as a single variable or parameter which is an amalgam of pressure and temperature at the atomic and molecular level. The two properties cannot be truly separated in a practical sense as Boyle observed many years ago – and perhaps they cannot be separated at all in condensed matter. For instance, hydrogen, which has been captured in the Casimir pores of a ferromagnetic metal at ambient or even well above ambient – could nevertheless physically experience the equivalent restriction in degrees of freedom as if at absolute zero. Having high effective over-voltage is the same as extreme compression. At a loading of 1:1 in a metal matrix, the effective pressure is arguably well over 10,000 bar, according to Frank, and thus the relevant comperature would possess an effective temperature equivalent near absolute zero. In the case of superconductivity then - even at ambient ‘normal’ temperature in the larger system a hydride could be considered cooled to 1 degree K in a relativistic sense.

RE: [Vo]:Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides
From: mix...@bigpond.com ➢ If temporary superconducting states cycle frequently enough, and in sufficient number, then this could be the mechanism behind CF. Hi Robin, Yes, rapid cycling would seem to be required and especially in the case where photons interact with electrons in quantum cavities. There is a phenomenon known as the Eliashberg effect which seems to be relevant. There are many new papers like this one which ostensibly have nothing to do with LENR but provide much insight if transient HTSC is involved. https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.017401

The argument could be worth renewed interest – given that transient HTSC has been found and reported in an authoritative study not involving LENR. That report turned up on LENR forum from poster Ahlfors - as the subject of a PhD thesis by M. Syed from an Australian University. http://web.tiscali.it/pt1963.home/publist.htm “Transient High-Temperature Superconductivity in Palladium Hydride” The nano-magnetism concept of Ahern, for instance, was predicated on high-temperature local superconductivity for reducing randomness, arguably in the form of a ‘transient condensate.’ As to why a pulse of magnetism would be important – very simply this gets back to structural uniformity and Boson statistics. Two bound deuterons in a cavity exist at identical ‘compreture’ due to the cavity containment but that is not enough. Magnetism can thereafter align spin, so immediately you have a near-condensate in the sense of extreme DFR ("Divergence From Randomness") in the physical properties of those atoms in the matrix. From this highly structured but non-cryogenic state – a “virtual BEC” need last only picoseconds if there us sequential recurrence.

Re: [Vo]:Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides
In reply to JonesBeene's message of Fri, 16 Aug 2019 15:28:57 -0700: Hi Jones, In an early post on vortex - decades ago, I proposed that the reversion of a superconducting state to normal, would result in a very fast magnetic field collapse, which due to V = - L di/dt could produce a local high voltage pulse that might accelerate particles enough to produce some fusion reactions. (This is because when a section of the lattice becomes locally superconducting it forms a local short circuit, and all local current flows through it, rather than through the surrounding lattice. When it reverts to normal, the resistance suddenly increases and the current tries to stop, but is forced to continue by the collapsing magnetic field. High current x R => high voltage; another way of looking at it.)
