Re: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

Bob, Thank you for putting this together. May I add these definitions to a resource page I'm making for hobbyist replicators of the Holmlid Effect (with credit to you of course). What should we actually call this? Holmlid Effect or something else? Jack On Tue, Apr 5, 2016 at 12:10 PM Bob

RE: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

From: Bob Higgins * It sounds like my understanding of IRH is wrong and I need to find the source of the description. My understanding is based on two papers that need to be read together as each has part of the picture. Both seem incomplete to me. The main one is Lawandy, which

Re: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

A recent experimental result shows how hydrides become superconductive under pressure. http://phys.org/news/2016-03-quantum-effects-world-smelliest-superconductor.html The KEY: the hydrogen bonds become symmetric. All matter will become metallic under enough pressure. This special type of

Re: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

Jones, It sounds like my understanding of IRH is wrong and I need to find the source of the description. Can you point to a particular paper, where IRH is described? Perhaps by Lawandy or Miley? From what you described, it doesn't sound like IRH is a plausible state of condensed matter. In

RE: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

Bob The problem breaks down to identifying when the electron becomes essentially dissociated from the proton. IRH is not really an atom that has lost energy and entered a state below the ground state, since that level assumes the electron is still attached as an orbital. My take on the

Re: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

Bob Higgins etal. I agree that the definitions are confusing. I have understood that Rydberg matter refers to an ionic state of an element where there are no associated electrons in orbits associated with a given nucleus. Thus Li-3 would be a raw +3 particle in a solid state material, not a

RE: [Vo]: Lets work out some useful definitions

Freeman Dyson has suggested that "observers of the philosophical scene" can be broadly, if over-simplistically, divided into splitters and lumpers, roughly corresponding to materialists, who imagine the world as divided into atoms, and Platonists, who regard the world as made up of ideas.
