RE: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

Dave— I think the reaction time for the mechanism you suggest if too long to explain the results of the “run-away” phenomena. It seems to me that an entire coherent system must change in a very short instant with the appearance of phonic energy (high orbital valence electron spin)

RE: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

Axil— A 20 nanometer particle would include a million or more atoms, plenty to create a lattice that could vibrate with addition of heat. In other words the atoms do not stay in one position but move rhythmically about a point in the lattice. The electronic bonding within the crystal lattice

RE: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

Jones – Good questions and fair to midland conclusions. What was the nature of the reactants in each of the run-away reactions? --Pd-D, Ni-H, Li involved, Ti involved etc? Was the size of the likely coherent system in the various cases limited? Were sharply peaking resonance conditions

Re: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

Brian, The Manelas device is an interesting subject that I would like to explore further. Do you know whether or not the project is actively being pursued at this time? Of course I am skeptical of any free lunches, but open to possibilities. Dave -Original Message- From:

Re: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

Regarding: "The Manelas energy output with ferromagnetic ferrite cores is also fascinating and not understood by anyone yet." The Barium ferrite magnet is similar to the SmCo5 magnet in that it is a hexaferrite based crystal structure based on the hexagon. This type of magnet produces an

Re: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

David, I like your admission that we are brainstorming. I had several mentors in the last 20 years. One of them was Henry Kolm, Wayland MA. He was a co-founder of the National Magnet Lab at MIT. He is deceased, but in 2009 he believed that at one time he was as knowledgerog ross noable on

Re: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

Bob, When you mention the attenuation coefficient for waves I think it should be pointed out that the original energy of the phonon is preserved. By this I mean that the sonic energy is converted into some other form such as heat which I think of as just uncoordinated sound waves that are

Re: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

LENR has been found to exist under laser irradiation of gold nanoparticles in a colloidal suspension of thorium salts. The nanoparticles are far to small to support any lattice vibration, but they can support subwavelength EMF. Initiation of nuclear reactions under laser irradiation of Au

Re: [Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

The problem with the phonon is that its wavelength is extremely short. The attenuation coefficient for waves, in general, is typically quoted in dB/wavelength; and nature abhors a too small value for such a number. Hence you only have to propagate a limited number of wavelengths and the energy in

[Vo]:Defining the active particle of an LENR runaway

In nuclear fission, the active particle which propagates the reaction is of course the neutron. The identity crisis that we have dealt with in LENR from the start becomes evident when we try to single out the active particle or pseudo-particle, which is the most basic agent that propagates and
