Re: [Vo]:X-rays, IR, RF & the Rossi effect

Its entirely conceivable that if the nickel micro particles are spaced far enough apart, then no transmutation from nickel to copper will be seen. The magnetic beams that produce the LENR reaction will usually project away from the tips of the nanowire field emitters on the micro particles. The mag

I found it worth listening to. And his opinion near the end that a commercial success (eg Rossi) might be the only way out of the "CF is disproved" meme.

RE: [Vo]:Zirconia?

From: Bob Higgins Most catalysts are not fully oxidized metal oxides - they are partially reduced metal oxides. The best catalysts have nano-scale features and partial oxidation. Which is approaching the definition of a perovskite… …and this version of NiO looks interesting as a

Re: [Vo]:High boson densities can increase the BEC operating temperature.

http://www.jupiterscientific.org/sciinfo/bosonsfermions.html Elementary particles such as electrons, quarks, neutrinos, protons and neutrons are fermions. Photons are examples of bosons. Elementary particles have an intrinsic spin or turning motion, which must be a multiple of 1/2 due to quantum m

Re: [Vo]:Zirconia?

I am not a chemist, but have some familiarity with materials science. You can take this with an appropriate grain-of-salt. Zirconia would not, itself, be a catalyst. I specifically mentioned zirconium - the metal. Nano-Zr could be a catalyst that would have a high sintering temperature as a nan

RE: [Vo]:High boson densities can increase the BEC operating temperature.

A il Axil-- I tbink Bose particles can havezero spin as well as integer spin. Neg. intergers are ok. Also all particles in theBEC do not have to have the same spin. Some can be + and some -. Bob Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE SmartphoneAxil Axil wrote: http://www.nature.com/nature

Re: [Vo]:Rossi Report will come, old paradigm will depart

I would try a ceramic spong--maybe a Cerium oxide-- then use a solgel Ni compound and sinter at a temp higher than whar you want to operate the reactor. The heavy metal ceramic may help damp the thermal degradation of the Ni structure. Bob Cook Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE smartphon
