Rossi’s closest technician and engineer since 2012, *Fulvio Fabiani:*

"And then you realize that it is something unique. We have it all filmed,
which still cannot be disclosed. We have photographs of creatures that emit
pure light that have completely melted the reactor down, all in a very
quiet way. You just turn off the stimuli system and the reaction is
switched off. It’s impressive."

These "creatures that emit pure light" are the photonic based Exotic
Neutral Particles(ENP) the other people has seen in their experiments.

The ENPs looks and act differently because they are holding different light
wavelengths based on the level of power they contain.

These ENPs are weak in the infrared, visible at intermediate
light strength levels, and very powerful in the XUV and x-ray ranges. This
is what R, Mills sees as black light in his experiments.

This is what I call dark mode Surface Plasmon Polaritons.

1) Thank you for the  links to your articles, Axil. I will read them tomorrow. 

2) Are you saying that Lugano scientists followed Rossi's published protocol, 
and that their quantitative results were approximately the same as his? My 
recollection is that this did not happen. Otherwise, ;-).

3) What is Rossi waiting for? In his place I would have published the protocol 
(without trying to offer a theory) a long time ago, waited for at least two 
independent quantitative confirmation of results, and expected a prestigious 
recognition  ;-).

4) Unable to publish, I would start selling reactors, counting on great 
commercial success.  ;-).

Rossi has revealed his Hot Cat technology in the Lugano test. Using this
report, multiple experimenters SAY that they have replicated the Hot Cat.
The patent submitted by the Industrial Heat is  filed with quotes pulled
directly from the Lugano report.

I have drawn important insights from the Ni62 100 micro ash particle
analyzed in the Lugano report about how the LENR reaction works.

Why are Rossi's patents and intentions important, in the context of validating 
his CMNS claims? What the world is waiting for is a protocol which allows 
reputable scientists to replicate his results, and to obtain similar (+/- 30%) 
results. That would be a tremendous contribution, much more valuable than tens 
of his patents.

I assume that your concepts include the various particles such as the 
polyneutron, Erzion, etc. but Rossi has never mentioned any of these.  They may 
be involved in the LENR process, but I suspect that Rossi has never used those 
terms within his postings.

I too have found that he is careful to reveal actual portions of his design but 
sometimes it is nearly impossible to know exactly how to interpret his 
descriptions.  He divulged a great deal of useful information concerning the 
PWM operation of his original ECAT that I found to be applicable within my 
thermal models.  It was with this information that I was able to convince 
myself that it is indeed possible to control a large amount of thermal power 
with a much smaller quantity.  His actual duty cycle works within my computer 
model when I make certain reasonable assumptions.  I was able to achieve a COP 
of 6 in this manner.

It is important to carefully interpret the words that he uses when he writes 
and that is why I request that we are careful to not add our own ideas to what 
is revealed unless acknowledged in our text.  So far I do not see any proof 
that he currently is using 1 drive device to handle 15 others.  That may be the 
case, but his latest patent does not reveal that structure.

It might make sense to use this design if the COP of the new devices is 15 or 
greater except for one situation.  My models show that you need extra power to 
get over the 'hump' before the gain maxes out to 15.  The required drive for 
each to overcome the 'hump' is too great unless driven a few at a time.

When you state with authority that 1 device is driving 15 others people are 
left with the impression that Rossi has made that clear in his writings.

I have kept a close watch on his journal and do not recall ever seeing that

Congratulations for US Patent and for the 146 patents pending and in the

Joseph,
Thank you, but if the results will be positive, this will be due also to the 
work of our Team and also of the great family of this blog, from which so much 
I have learnt and of Prof Sergio Focardi and Prof Norman Cook, whose book has 
put the theoretical bases to the evolution of my work during these last 6 
years. If the results will be negative, obviously, the responsibility will be 
totally mine, because I am the one that has taken all the decisions on the 
battlefield.
Warm Regards,
A.R.




Sorry, there are 146 other patents pending.

Why are Rossi's intentions important, in the context of validating his CMNS 
claims? What the world is waiting for is a protocol which allows reputable 
scientists to replicate his results, and to obtain nearly identical (+/- 30%) 
results. That would be a tremendous contribution, much more valuable than tens 
of patents.

Rossi's patents are misleading. For example he states in his patent that
his fuel must be preprocessed involving high heat but he does not say how
he preprocesses that fuel. IMHO, this lack of preprocessing detail in
replication attemps produces failure to replicate.

Much of this information is from 2 years ago and Rossi just recently told me to

The information you are sharing is facinating. While we wait for the full

1 – If the mouse over stimulates the cat so it runs around in circles 
continually, not going back to sleep, does the cat always explode?


2 – Have you ever witnessed the cat running around in circles for extended

3 – Other than heat from the mouse, is anything else stimulating the cat during

there was some low power method of keeping the cat stimulated. For example, 
like the 100 watts of radio frequencies that kept the one megawatt plant in

Dear Andrea,


What happens if you do not apply power again once you put the reactor in to 
self sustained mode? Do the reactions try to run away or will they fade over 
time? With at least some of your previous reactors, if you did not apply power 
every so often the reactors would run away. However, in one test the data 
showed when the input power was cut off the reactions gradually faded over time.

Hank Mills:
If we give too much energy to the reactor the temperature raises above the 
controllability limits and the reactor explodes. We must maintain the drive 
below this limit, and it is what we are learning to do, trying to reach a 
controllability level at the highest temperature possible, because the COP 
raises exponentially with the operation temperature. The apparatus is made by 
two well separated components, the activator ( “mouse”) and the energy 
catalyzar ( “Cat”). Now we have a mouse with a COP above 1 and a Cat with a COP 
with zero energy consumption. If the Mouse excites the cat too much, the cat 
gets wild and explodes. We must not risk to reach this level. We have seen 
explode hunderds of reactors now, this way.

Joseph Fine

Dear Andrea Rossi,


The initiator/Mouse is at low (or zero power) when switched off. It/(the Mouse) 
consumes 1 kW only 35% of the time (and produces essentially 1.02 kW of heat 
during this time). Instead of using a (Joe)COP of 2.86(P2/P1) = 286, assume the 
actual COP is only 100-125. This is admittedly much higher than the presumed 
COP of 10-12, but lets continue along this path.


If the “ETA”, or thermal-to-electric conversion efficiency at 350-400 C, is 
between 30% and 40% (40% is on the high side), and COP is between 100-125, (let 
alone 200-250) then each 100 kW Hot Cat would be able to drive from .3*100 to 
.4*125 or 30 – 50 other Hot-Cats. So, each 1 KW input to a first-stage Mouse 
can produce not 100 KW-th but, by generating 30+ kW-Elec, may be able to drive 
30 other second-stage 100 kW Hot Cat devices.


Even if it is possible to produce 3 MW-thermal with one (1st stage) 1 kW Mouse, 
it may be much simpler to have 30 1-kW Mice to drive 30 separate 100 kW devices.


Without getting too exuberant, three stages of multiplication by a factor of 
20, instead of 30, is already 20^3 = 8000. That is, even if a single 1st stage 
kW Mouse can only drive 20-100 kW ‘Cats’, three such stages, using a single 1 
kW input (gas or electric), ultimately might produce 8000*100 kW or 800 MW of 
heat.


And if you can produce 800 MW of heat, or even much less, why do you need a 1 
kW input? (Other than for start-ups.)


0) Is that the basic concept of what you are trying to accomplish?


1) When a 100 kW HotCat or Tiger-Cat is not in the self-sustained mode (SSM), 
what mode or state is it in? In other words, how much thermal power is produced 
during the 35% of time the 100 kW Cat is not in SSM? Does it have an electrical 
input to bring it back under control? Or do you simply remove its input 
Hydrogen (Idrogen) supply?

They take up less land than coal mines or natural gas pipeline
right-of-ways. Most of the land used for wind turbines can also be used for
agriculture, grazing cows, etc. The footprint on the ground is much smaller
per megawatt than other energy sources.

Solar panels can be installed on flat building roof and other wasted space.
This could generate about a third of peak electricity, as I recall, with
essentially no land use at all.

It is possible today. They are doing that in Hawaii, to the point of

As one energy expert put it: this is not a free lunch; it is a lunch you
are paid to eat. Alternative energy will not "break the bank" -- it will
save more than it costs, especially when you include the cost of all those
funerals and wars.

1.5 million lives is an extravagant cost for electricity, wouldn't you say?
Even 20,000 is unthinkable. Imagine what would happen if the airlines
killed 20,000 passengers, or a grocery chain killed 20,000 people from food
poisoning.

Of course cold fusion would save far more money than alternative energy.

First, the problems are not so profound. There are dozens of potential
solutions.

Second, the resources are gigantic. Much bigger than most people realize.
U.S. wind power in North and South Dakota could generate a flow of liquid
fuel larger than the flow of oil pumped from the Middle East. Wind energy
on the North Sea could provide four times more energy than Europe consumes.
A single installation about 100 miles to the side (as I recall) in the U.S.
southeast desert could supply all the energy in North America.

Third, history shows that many difficult technical problems were solved
completely, to the point where they are now trivial. The production of ice,
for example, or illumination, or computer data storage. These used to be
hugely expensive and problematic.

The government does not control energy, and it never has. The oil, gas and
electric power companies do. There are municipal power companies. They are
usually cheaper than the privately owned ones, which indicates it would be
better if the government controlled energy. At least for electricity.

Energy from solar panels on your roof will be controlled by you.

That is what the Rossi says!  Unfortunately, we do not have any of the other 
patents to review at this time to determine how his new device is structured.  
Until that happens it is wise for us to make it clear that we are speculating 
on a particular issue so that everyone understands that that is the situation.  
When you state with authority that 1 device is driving 15 others people are 
left with the impression that Rossi has made that clear in his writings.

I have kept a close watch on his journal and do not recall ever seeing that 
mentioned.  In this case I was beginning to think that perhaps I have missed 
one of his postings, which turned out not to be the case.  My models are based 
upon what Rossi has actually stated and I need to keep that information 
accurate.  Can I count on you and others to make a point to state that you are 
speculating on a new configuration concept unless it is actually written by 
Rossi?

Dear Andrea,
The information you are sharing is facinating. While we wait for the full 
reports, it gives us something to think upon.
1 – If the mouse over stimulates the cat so it runs around in circles 
continually, not going back to sleep, does the cat always explode?
2 – Have you ever witnessed the cat running around in circles for extended 
periods of time, not needing any extra stimulation, but remaining stable?
3 – Other than heat from the mouse, is anything else stimulating the cat during 
the drive or self sustain periods? It may not work for the hot cat, but I wish 
there was some low power method of keeping the cat stimulated. For example, 
like the 100 watts of radio frequencies that kept the one megawatt plant in 
self sustain mode.
4 – By how many degrees on average does the surface of the cat vary from the 
end of the drive stage to the end of the self sustained stage?


Andrea Rossi
December 29th, 2013 at 6:10 PM
Hank Mills:
1- no
2- confidential
3- no
4- the temperature of the Cat raises when the Mouse is turned off, lowers when 
the Mouse is turned on

I now take this to mean that when Rossi shuts off a magnetic confinements field

can then get into the Cats to stimulate the LENR reaction.

Obviously the effects of human carbon pollution of our atmosphere is a very
contentious topic.  There are plenty of reasons to make a concerted effort
to reduce carbon contribution in our atmosphere, not just warming - real or
otherwise.  The normal CO2 level in the 200-300 ppm level is compatible
with human life.  CO2 is a reasonably poisonous gas for mammalian
exposure.  The concentration can be much higher in inversion areas,
particularly in China.  The average person doesn't realize that burning 1
tank (20 gallons) of gas puts 360 pounds of CO2 in the air.  That's a lot
of gas!  Improved fuel economy has probably halved the annual
amount/vehicle added to the atmosphere in the last 20 years to the economic
advantage of the drivers at the same time.  It is an example of win-win.
To be successful in further reduction of carbon in the atmosphere, there
will have to be a succession of win-wins.

It is up to the highly developed nations to find a solution to reduce the
carbon pollution of the atmosphere so that the developing nations can take
advantage of the improved technology without going through a phase of high
pollution.

Just to clarify my point, I have no idea, personally, if man is a main 
contributor to issues regarding climate change or an insignificant contributor. 
 

 

My point is simply that I would rather error on the side of caution since doing 
so is harmless.  So to me, man MAY be contributing to climate change (since we 
do know CO2 is a green house gas) and reducing our contribution to CO2 levels 
is entirely harmless (in my opinion).  You think current efforts to reduce 
carbon emissions will have an adverse effect on the economy of the world.  I 
completely disagree.  That is our disconnect.   

 

In my mind all the “Global Warming Hoax” crowd are not really concerned about 
climate science but a perceived effect on economics.  If they realized that 
their economic concern was entirely misplaced would they be so passionate about 
the subject?  I don’t think so.

Ransom,

Thanks for the positive things you have stated about my previous postings.  I 
realize that this particular issue is very polarized and hesitated to become 
involved in the discussion, but one should not stand by and let bad science be 
used without pointing it out.

I once accepted the global warming issue as being valid, but decided to see 
just how severe the problem was according to information available on the web.  
I was amazed to find that things were not as I had expected.  It concerned me 
greatly that proponents of the issue were carefully adjusting their dates and 
neglecting historical data in order to make their point.

The more I reviewed the data, the more I realized that something was not right 
concerning what we are being told.  I understand that you apparently are still 
convinced that man is the main contributor to the problem, but have you 
actually reviewed the data yourself?  I was under the same perception as you 
before I checked the facts.

I am open to being corrected in my understanding if anyone can prove that 
strong nonscientific motives are being applied to prove that man is not the 
main contributor to global warming.   Are you effectively stating that the 
information contained within most of that material is fabricated?   Am I 
mistaken to believe that a little ice age occurred around 1800 because of false 
data?   The records show that sun spots were not significant at the same time 
as the cooling.   I also know for a fact that Jefferson had an ice house where 
he stored ice that was cut from a nearby river during the winter to keep foods 
cool during the summer.   Now, you would have a difficult time finding ice to 
cut in that area.   There was very little river ice there even before the 
1940's when the pollution began in earnest.

Do you believe that there was no warming period during which the Vikings farmed 
southern areas of Greenland during the warmer middle ages when the temperatures 
were apparently warmer than today?  How about the period from 1940 to about 
1970 when these same types of scientists were warning about an ice age 
beginning due to the cooling that was evident even though carbon dioxide levels 
were well on the way upwards?

I just want to add one more question to the list that I find hard to answer.  
Why do all the folks that have such great concern for the global warming 
problem hide the fact that 95% of the warming gas is water vapor?  And, of 
course, they make assumptions that there is a large multiplier associated with 
the effect of carbon dioxide on that water vapor.  None of them think that the 
carbon dioxide alone is going to be a significant problem without the large 
multiplier.

What unscientific motive could we apply to the professor that started the 
entire carbon dioxide concern who later realize he was in error?  I could go on 
but it would be better for you and anyone else who wants to seek the truth to 
do their own research.  With due respect, anyone that accepts the settled 
science without any question is a bit naive.

The climate is going to change with or without us being involved and thus far 
it has not been established that the generally warming episode that is 
currently taking place is bad for the world or mankind.  Everything I have seen 
suggests that the world is becoming greener as a result of the carbon we are 
releasing.  The computer models are not realistic as of today and can not be 
counted upon to predict with any degree of accuracy the climate in 100 years,

generate their predictions.

Dear Andrea,

The information you are sharing is facinating. While we wait for the full
reports, it gives us something to think upon.

1 – If the mouse over stimulates the cat so it runs around in circles
continually, not going back to sleep, does the cat always explode?

2 – Have you ever witnessed the cat running around in circles for extended
periods of time, not needing any extra stimulation, but remaining stable?

3 – Other than heat from the mouse, is anything else stimulating the cat
during the drive or self sustain periods? It may not work for the hot cat,
but I wish there was some low power method of keeping the cat stimulated.
For example, like the 100 watts of radio frequencies that kept the one
megawatt plant in self sustain mode.

4 – By how many degrees on average does the surface of the cat vary from
the end of the drive stage to the end of the self sustained stage?

Dear Andrea,

What happens if you do not apply power again once you put the reactor in to
self sustained mode? Do the reactions try to run away or will they fade
over time? With at least some of your previous reactors, if you did not
apply power every so often the reactors would run away. However, in one
test the data showed when the input power was cut off the reactions
gradually faded over time.

Andrea Rossi
December 27th, 2013 at 7:56 PM
Hank Mills:
If we give too much energy to the reactor the temperature raises above the
controllability limits and the reactor explodes. We must maintain the drive
below this limit, and it is what we are learning to do, trying to reach a
controllability level at the highest temperature possible, because the COP
raises exponentially with the operation temperature. The apparatus is made
by two well separated components, the activator ( “mouse”) and the energy
catalyzar ( “Cat”). Now we have a mouse with a COP above 1 and a Cat with a
COP with zero energy consumption. If the Mouse excites the cat too much,
the cat gets wild and explodes. We must not risk to reach this level. We
have seen explode hunderds of reactors now, this way.

Dear Andrea Rossi,

The initiator/Mouse is at low (or zero power) when switched off. It/(the
Mouse) consumes 1 kW only 35% of the time (and produces essentially 1.02 kW
of heat during this time). Instead of using a (Joe)COP of 2.86(P2/P1) =
286, assume the actual COP is only 100-125. This is admittedly much higher
than the presumed COP of 10-12, but lets continue along this path.

If the “ETA”, or thermal-to-electric conversion efficiency at 350-400 C, is
between 30% and 40% (40% is on the high side), and COP is between 100-125,
(let alone 200-250) then each 100 kW Hot Cat would be able to drive from
.3*100 to .4*125 or 30 – 50 other Hot-Cats. So, each 1 KW input to a
first-stage Mouse can produce not 100 KW-th but, by generating 30+ kW-Elec,
may be able to drive 30 other second-stage 100 kW Hot Cat devices.

Even if it is possible to produce 3 MW-thermal with one (1st stage) 1 kW
Mouse, it may be much simpler to have 30 1-kW Mice to drive 30 separate 100
kW devices.

Without getting too exuberant, three stages of multiplication by a factor
of 20, instead of 30, is already 20^3 = 8000. That is, even if a single 1st
stage kW Mouse can only drive 20-100 kW ‘Cats’, three such stages, using a
single 1 kW input (gas or electric), ultimately might produce 8000*100 kW
or 800 MW of heat.

And if you can produce 800 MW of heat, or even much less, why do you need a
1 kW input? (Other than for start-ups.)

0) Is that the basic concept of what you are trying to accomplish?

1) When a 100 kW HotCat or Tiger-Cat is not in the self-sustained mode
(SSM), what mode or state is it in? In other words, how much thermal power
is produced during the 35% of time the 100 kW Cat is not in SSM? Does it
have an electrical input to bring it back under control? Or do you simply
remove its input Hydrogen (Idrogen) supply?

Multi-stage regards,

1- The Activator provides heat to the Customer when it is turned ON, while

low.
2- yes
3- I would say: since the Activator pays for itself, being its COP ~1.02 ,
the E-Cat has a COP difficult to evaluate: we say 100-200, but, as a matter

20,000 people in the U.S. that is. In China roughly 1.5 million people die
per year from coal smoke.

The cost of all these deaths is not included in the total cost of energy
because electric power companies do not pay the victims' families anything.

If you include the cost of these deaths, that would make coal, oil and even
gas much more expensive. This is a hidden cost. Even if you discount the
possible cost of global warming, it would still save a tremendous amount of
money to transition to alternative energy. It would also save millions of
lives.

There is no need to invoke global warming as a reason to do this. Given the
irrational opposition to global warming research, it is probably bad public
relations to invoke it. The industry websites for wind energy do not
emphasize global warming. They talk about reduced pollution, reduced
dependence on foreign energy sources, increased employment, and other
things most people agree on. See:

The wealthy people of the world will not suffer too severely, but the poor are

That's hardly likely! It is getting cheaper by the day. The cost of wind
and solar energy will soon be less than fossil fuel. Especially when you
take into account the 20,000 people year who die from coal smoke, and the
millions of people who are sickened by other air pollution.

Even if global warming is not real, the present-day total cost of fossil
fuel energy probably make it more expensive than alternatives such as wind

It has be recently revealed that each 250kVA E-Cat tiger reactor module is 
composed of 16 reactors. Only one of those reactors  is a powered 
activator(mouse). The other 15 are drones driven by the activator. The 
activator produces a reaction catalyst that drives the other drones. I say that 
the reaction catalyst is the magnetic Exotic Neutral Particle(ENP) that becomes 
mobile as its energy content level reaches a self sustaining threshold. At low 
temperatures the alumina tub reactor shell that all these reactors are 
comprised of confines the ENP. But as all these reactors heat up, the alumina 
shell becomes electrically conductive. At high temperatures, the alumina 
becomes magnetically transparent and this allows the ENP to leave the activator 
an enter the drone where the ENP catalyzes the LENR reaction.

People demand assurance from cold fusion researchers that cold fusion will

they will not believe it until it is sold in the stores. This is an

Some of them did happen and the others may yet happen. The use of fossil

The peril is that countries such as the USA will throttle their economies by 
making energy too expensive.  The end result is that millions will find their 
standard of living much reduced for a cause that is beyond mankind's control.   
The wealthy people of the world will not suffer too severely, but the poor are 
going to take a beating as is generally the case.  

Also, it will be a bad day if and when the world's energy supplies become 
regulated by one central authority.  The opportunity for abuse is astounding!

If LENR ever proves itself to be the new energy source we are hoping for, then 
the problem will be solved without any corrupt intervention.   I have great 
hopes for Rossi, but until we have proof I remain a bit skeptical.  My thermal 
models suggest that what he says is true provided his fuel actually delivers 
the required watts per kilogram for an extended time period.

Oh yes we should assume that. People who work with scientific data all day
long are usually good at it. They have to go through peer review which is
very challenging. Researchers have sent me many papers in chemistry and
physics (not just cold fusion) that went through peer review. They get torn

I have seen claims of that and I have read experts showing that is not the
case, in the Sci. Am. and elsewhere. I do not know much about climatology
but I do understand statistics and trends and I can see the experts are
correct in this case.

As I said, the biggest source of misunderstanding is the confusion about
predicting weather for a specific location over a few days versus long-term
climate trends. The two problems are completely separate, in the same way
predicting your future as an individual is compared to making an actuarial
table.

In this case they have not failed. I believe I can judge that much. What

No, not a modest period. This is a general trend over many decades, with a
great deal of variation. The earth is, without question, much hotter than
it has been. Even many of the so-called climate skeptics agree with that.
The only question is why.

But Axil, Rossi's patent does not show any such cat and mouse structure.  He 
has answered a question of mine about the structure of the new CAT by telling 
me that the patent is where to look.

I suspect that you are attempting to make the design fall into a pattern that 
you believe is required instead of following the actual data.

Each tiger probably contains 16 smaller identical units.  Perhaps Rossi has 
modified the coolant flow so that it is more effective in balancing the thermal 
load than with the earlier system.With only 3 modules per active unit there 
were far too many pumps, etc. to deal with.  Now, he reduces that requirement 
by a factor of roughly 5.

Rossi seems to be wise to keep 4 main tigers together so that if 1 fails, the 
other 3 can likely be adjusted to take up that slack for a short period until 
the repairs are completed.  It may be as simple as that.

I now take this to mean that when Rossi shuts off a magnetic confinements field

can then get into the Cats to stimulate the LENR reaction.

It has be recently revealed that each 250kVA E-Cat tiger reactor module is 
composed of 16 reactors. Only one of those reactors  is a powered 
activator(mouse). The other 15 are drones driven by the activator. The 
activator produces a reaction catalyst that drives the other drones. I say that 
the reaction catalyst is the magnetic Exotic Neutral Particle(ENP) that becomes 
mobile as its energy content level reaches a self sustaining threshold. At low 
temperatures the alumina tub reactor shell that all these reactors are 
comprised of confines the ENP. But as all these reactors heat up, the alumina 
shell becomes electrically conductive. At high temperatures, the alumina 
becomes magnetically transparent and this allows the ENP to leave the activator 
an enter the drone where the ENP catalyzes the LENR reaction.

ENPs remain viable for hours.
If the Erzons phenomenon is produced by magnetically based ENPs, an iron

basis for what they claim. I can do that in the case of cold fusion because
I have read the literature. It is clear to me that the EPCN, the people at
Scientific American and the people at Wikipedia have read nothing. They
make elementary mistakes about the research. They have no idea what
instruments are used, or what claims are made. Mainly, they have no idea
what it is they do now know. It is classic case of the Dunning-Kruger effect

I cannot make any such judgement regarding climatology, so I am forced to
defer to experts. I hope they really are experts. Since most of them work
in the labs with data from thermometers and satellites, it seems likely to
me they are experts. Everyone I know who works in the lab with actual cold
fusion data knows about hundred times more than the EPCN. I know for a fact
that any electrochemist knows about a thousand times more about
electrochemistry than, say, Robert Park does, or the people at Kamiokande
did.

I am sure that is bullshit. When a university researcher or public opinion
pollster does not release data, no one ever believes him. He loses all
credibility. Besides, no one would believe a 97% figure that from a single
study in social science or any other field. You need other sources of
evidence pointing to the same thing. Such as the weight of published
papers, statements by professional organizations and so on.

Google "cold fusion hoax" and you will find just as many. It is all
bullshit. Academic science have many faults, but it not possible for anyone
to create or maintain a hoax in it. Heck, scientists can barely express a
plain truth! It seems they can't even convince Bill Gates that cold fusion
is real given a full day to present the evidence. I cannot imagine why
anyone thinks scientists are capable of lying when they cannot even tell
the truth. I have been working with them for a long time and believe me
they they would make the worst liars imaginable.

It reminds me of the notion that Rossi is a con man (confidence man). As I
have often said, he inspires no confidence in anyone.

Cold fusion is quite flawed. There is a world of difference between a hoax
and flawed science.

I have great faith in modern public opinion research and polls. My late
mother was an expert on that subject and taught me a lot about it. Those
people made many mistakes in the past but by the 1980s it was down to a
science. Furthermore, it is easy to take a poll of climatologists. You know
where to find them, and the response rate is probably high.

Please examine your motives for embracing it.  

 

Then answer this question,  “If there is even a minimal chance that WE

You do not know the answer, but experts in climatology say they do know it.
They are probably right. Non-experts from outside a field -- such as the
plasma fusion scientists who attacked cold fusion -- are usually wrong.

You probably know next to nothing about climatology, because it is a
complex subject. Therefore you have no basis to judge whether these experts
are right or wrong. I know nothing about climatology so I have no basis to
judge either. But as I said, as a general rule mainstream experts in hard
science who have devoted years to research are usually right, so I defer to
them.

I am sure that the comments by anti-global warming journalists are
preposterous. I know enough about the subject to judge that. For example,
they often say that we cannot even predict the weather 5 days ahead so how
could anyone predict climate change decades from now. This is like saying
that we cannot predict whether you will be alive tomorrow so how can anyone
draw up actuarial tables for groups of people?

It is presumptuous for anyone to assume they understand climatology better
than climatologists, or cold fusion better than Fleischmann, Bockris or
McKubre. Even in 1989 I found it infuriating when people such as George
Chapline (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) and Morrison claimed that
Fleischmann did not realize that highly loaded palladium hydrides release
hydrogen when recombines at the surface, making the metal hot. It was used
as a cigarette lighter in the 19th century.

By the way, what I am saying NOT -- repeat not -- a Fallacious Appeal to
Authority. That would only be the case if Fleischmann was not a leading
expert on electrochemistry and calorimetry, and he unquestionably was. See:

http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-authority.html

Most people attacking cold fusion and climatology suffer from the
Dunning-Kruger effect. Especially the idiots at Scientific American and
Wikipedia. Here is an amusing short description of the Dunning-Kruger
effect by John Cleese. (Cleese teaches at Cornell University which is how

   Dear Andrea,

   The information you are sharing is facinating. While we wait for the
   full reports, it gives us something to think upon.

   1 – If the mouse over stimulates the cat so it runs around in circles
   continually, not going back to sleep, does the cat always explode?

   2 – Have you ever witnessed the cat running around in circles for
   extended periods of time, not needing any extra stimulation, but remaining
   stable?

   3 – Other than heat from the mouse, is anything else stimulating the cat
   during the drive or self sustain periods? It may not work for the hot cat,
   but I wish there was some low power method of keeping the cat stimulated.
   For example, like the 100 watts of radio frequencies that kept the one
   megawatt plant in self sustain mode.

   4 – By how many degrees on average does the surface of the cat vary from
   the end of the drive stage to the end of the self sustained stage?

The debate about global warming is far from conclusive. I do not know the
answer. I do know that it is not a question we can control (i.e. I doubt
anyone created the ice- age(s)). For many other reasons I can agree that
limiting our carbon pollution has its advantages. Global warming will not
be totally depending on the CO2 level in the atmosphere, many other factors
will be as or more important. I think we need to get better information and
then search for the solution that still makes this place liveable. I think
we have time but to limit use of fossil fuel (limit CO2 in the atmosphere
is good in the meantime.
There are many other factors involved solar flares etc, They are way over
my understanding so I stay rather neutral in the debate. To limit the
manmade pollution is good. To believe that is the solution to control the
temperature on this planet is naive or beyond naive.
The show in Paris is just that, a show, entertaining for people in

It has be recently revealed that each 250kVA E-Cat tiger reactor module is 
composed of 16 reactors. Only one of those reactors  is a powered 
activator(mouse). The other 15 are drones driven by the activator. The 
activator produces a reaction catalyst that drives the other drones. I say that 
the reaction catalyst is the magnetic Exotic Neutral Particle(ENP) that becomes 
mobile as its energy content level reaches a self sustaining threshold. At low 
temperatures the alumina tub reactor shell that all these reactors are 
comprised of confines the ENP. But as all these reactors heat up, the alumina 
shell becomes electrically conductive. At high temperatures, the alumina 
becomes magnetically transparent and this allows the ENP to leave the activator 
an enter the drone where the ENP catalyzes the LENR reaction.

Jed,
first of all thanks for the many advices you give. I will try to get hold
of a book at some point in time.
I understand that what I think does not change the world. However, facts
like government (or any organization cannot achieve result is true. That
does not mean that organization is worthless. What I try to say it certain
organizations work better than others for different tasks / jobs. I do have
some experience of that from real life and I spent considerable time to
work with government in changing situations - that does not work at all -
ever. I have done similar job in small organizations and achieved rather
good result. So my statements are built more on experience and less on
books.
Having said so I have learnt the statement that;'Organizations cannot get
result but people can', in a book. Maybe I read to many books - you confuse
me. Or is it so that there is a book supporting most any opinion you have?
I am not claiming any good understanding of LENR or its history. I did not
know Mr. Fleischman. If you say he expressed contempt for entrepreneur I
believe you. I still say he had some entrepreneurial characteristics.
Unfortunately he was in an environment that made it impossible or at least
very difficult to develop / utilize those entrepreneurial skills.
No I did not (do not) answer as you want. I answer in my way.
The answer to I have given you many examples of major technologies that
were discovered by or paid for by governments. You have not addressed a
single one of these examples. No, technology has been discovered by the
government. You should say that the queen of spain should be celebrated

You claim researchers outside the government have replicated. I asked for

That's nonsense. You sound like the editors at Scientific American who keep

Most climatologists are sure that CO2 from burning fuel is causing global

doubt that is what the majority of them think. Not <1%; most of them. This
is a matter of fact. Not an opinion, and not a scientific dispute. This is
what climatologists say in opinion polls and in their own journals and web

You can dispute scientific findings all you like, but you cannot dispute
what climatologists tell poll takers, or what they say publicly. They DO
NOT say what you claim they say. Along the same lines, the people at

when they say that no papers have been published they are denying a matter

Pity you used such a bad example for pathological science.LENR aka cold 
fusion is alive and well, so you are completely wrong about that.


Industrial Heat LLC has built a commercial 1 MW LENR thermal plant that 
according to Norway’s largest newspaper Aftenposten has been working 
well.Consisting of four 250 kW E-Cats It has been operating for nine 
months as part of a one year trial.The results will be published in 
Feb/Mar 2016.Andrea Rossi has also developed a high temperature E-Cat X, 
that operates at over 1000C, that is now in early trials.Industrial Heat 
is now funded with $59 million.See www.lenrproof.com


Even the original Fleischmann and Pons experiment has since been 
duplicated.It is now known that the hot fusion scientists, who attempted 
the earlier failed replications, did not load the Palladium sufficiently 
with Deuterium for the process to work.


To me, the greater danger is group-think.It shows not only with the 
academic response to LENR and by their unquestioning acceptance a 
AGW.Judging from the ~19 years of no warming shown by satellite 
temperature measurements the effect of CO2 has been exaggerated and the 
science certainly is not "settled."

[Vo]:Re: How many atoms to make condensed matter?

2015-12-02 Thread Bob Cook
What is being discussed seems to  reflect what might happen in a small system 
with a new particle being introduced to that system with significant kinetic 
energy.  What happens in a coherent system (with many particles with their 
mass, charge and spin) that hosts the introduction of a new particle with 
significant kinetic energy may be a different story, since the inertia and 
angular momentum  of many particles of that system may be involved in the 
kinetics that happen.  For example, kinetic energy of the incoming particle may 
be distributed evenly as a in-phase vibration, phonon, of the lattice electrons 
of the coherent system.  

In other words the many-particles of a large coherent system is a tough problem 
to solve.  However,   I suspect the  wave length of the incoming particle and 
its relation to the vibrational modes of a coherent system is a pertinent 
parameter as to what will happen in way of sharing the incoming kinetic energy, 
momentum, angular momentum etc.  

An additional consideration may be the geometry of the coherent system as to 
whether or not Casmir effects prevail and change the effective dimensions and 
normal electric field directional arrangements.   

IMHO empirical correlation of known parameters is the key to understanding the 
situation being discussed in this thread.  I wish there was a better instrument 
to measure in-phase lattice vibrations of nano particles on a short time frame. 
 Maybe a fast infrared spectrum analyzer to look for peaks in a given frequency 
with large intensity would be such an instrument.

Subject: Re: [Vo]: How many atoms to make condensed matter?

Robin, I agree that the field strength originating from the central tiny charge 
would be the same as without the presence of the external ring once the alpha 
breaches that ring.   The main idea is that the alpha would only require an 
incoming amount of energy associated with passage from that outer ring to the 
center charge.  This would of course be a smaller energy requirement than 
without the ring being in place.

The reduction in alpha incoming energy is inversely proportional to the square 
of the radius of the outer ring.   That implies that the central charge will 
dominate the total required energy to a very large extent unless the radius of 
the outer spherical ring of negative charge is small compared to that of the 
central charge.   For this reason I also would not expect the energy reduction 
to be very large, but it should be present.

You are correct in suggesting that a symmetrical sphere of negative charge 
surrounding a nucleus would not impact the field within that nucleus.  And, one 
would not expect the alpha to be encouraged to leave a nucleus for that reason. 
 On the other hand, one leaving should enjoy less net energy than an alpha 
ejected from a bare nucleus once it has left the near region.  This appears to 
be an interesting concept.  I suppose that it implies that since the alpha was 
once part of the nucleus, it shares a portion of the energy loss that occurs 
when the external electrons shed orbital energy as the atom reaches ground 
state by electromagnetic radiation.

Robin, are you aware of any direct correlation between the energy emitted by a 
particle and its decay rate?  The spherical symmetrical shell structure should 
likely result in a slightly lower energy alpha emission by the process outlined 
above.  Even though the electric field within the nucleus would remain the 
same, the energy of the released alpha would be less.  At the moment it is not 
clear as to how to handle the energy associated with the electrons that are 
released from the atom at the same time as the alpha.

Your description of the field fluctuations occurring due to random processes 
taking place does seem logical.   What would you expect to observe if a nucleus 
that typically emits alphas is placed within a strong electric field?  For 
example, placing some of these ions within the field located between the plates 
of a high voltage capacitor?  One might expect that type of arrangement to have 
an effect upon the alpha energy and decay rate.  In this structure the field 
could be adjusted to quantify the functional relationships.

The energized ENP can get EMF from the environment around it not requiring 
external heat or EMF simulation to be applied.

The same is true for the E-Cat. When the E-Cat is subcritical, it requires heat 
and EMF stimulation to be applied. But when it is "over stimulated" it begins 
to meltdown since it has become independent from externally applied stimulation.

The ENP can live as long as it can catalyze energy production from the material

Jed, you should follow that link and might conclude that a further look at 
other sources is in order.  I once assumed that global warming was an important 
issue until I began looking into the data that is available to the public.

The reference that 97% of scientists believe that man is responsible for 90% of 
the problem has been proven wildly wrong (<1% actually agree) but keeps being 
stated over and over.  And, the long term historical data shows that global 
climate temperature increases lead to greater carbon dioxide levels but not 
strongly in the other direction.  Also, keep in mind that water is by far the 
greatest contributor to the greenhouse effect (95%) but is beyond our control.  
Study sun spots and cosmic ray effects on cloud formation if you want to 
understand what is really happening.

I suspect that most of what we are witnessing in Paris is associated with an 
attempt to gain a greater degrees of control over world resources by the UN and 
member states.  I hope no one believes that any tax collected on the cost of 
carbon is going to be returned over the long term.  At first maybe so, but 
later these taxes will be used for general revenues.

One point to note is that the professor that started Gore on his quest many 
years ago later came to the conclusion that he was wrong about man caused 
warming.  Many others have followed suit but their perspectives are prevented 
from being widely exposed by a system that protects itself to maintain access 
to billions of dollars in research.  There is a parallel with LENR deniers who 
act in their own self interest.

OK Jed,
No, I do not think the government does anything for progress.
The problem is that we give them all the resources. The result is that we
fail to make changes at a pace we otherwise could.
I am the first to agree that many people in the government are good and
provide a service well within the expectation.
Every year we employ more and more people in that sector, then we request
more resources and that enables more employees in this enormous
organization. Maybe it starts with more resources but the cycle is there.
Of course there are good, able, willing people in the organization.The
problem is that the guidelines are changing. The primary guideline is CYA.
You said so your self '  No one gets money by revolting. They just fire you.
'. Sad isnt it?
I am not giving you any list. Mills and Defkalion are others for example.
However, that is not the issue. The thing is that entrepreneurial skills
gets killed in the bureaucracy. Fleischman was of course revolting. He did
not succeed in Toyota either you say. That should come as no surprise; that
is another (too) big organization and the rules are the same as in
government.

I am not rewriting history. As you say facts are facts. Any progress
initiated within a large organization has an uphill battle. It has its pros
and cons a sieve if you will that let good ideas that sustain the process
to succeed while stopping others is the positive thing. However, its format
is totally devastating for radical changes and risk taking. All I am saying
it needs to be a balance. Unfortunately we are skewing the balance and
eliminating the possibilities for 'progress by revolution' (my expression
not literally meant) in favor of 'progress by evolution'.

Just to think about; ' Organizations cannot make result but people can'.
This in response to your statement about how all good ideas are born by the
government in GB and the US. Sorry, that reminds me about when I was in the
sandbox and the adversary said 'my dad is bigger than yours'.:)

You said 'Rossi would not *exist* were it not for Fleischmann and Pons!
Plus he got a lot of help from Focardi and other government researchers. He
may be ahead of government researchers now, but they discovered the
effect.' Yes,
if almost all resources are within one organization, then people in that
organization make contributions some more (get zapped) and some after CYA
can still work in government. BTW are you including the Italian government
in the sphere of GB and the US? Long time since I visited but that
government works a little different:)

Then you say that government are entitled to 'steal' (my expression) the
show as they have monopoly but no factories. I am not commenting - your
statement is enough.

You go on saying: (as a response to those among us that think
government suppression of technology is a reality) 'That is not possible.
This can only be done with patents, and patents are public by definition.
If there are no patents then other countries will take the technology for
free.'
It has happened many times, in the US and Russia more than elsewhere. I am
not a believer of that will happen with LENR.  Your ideas about patents are
naive. Patents are a good source for information and protects nobody. They
do create wealth - for lawyers. A well documented patent written by
somebody with small resources (an entrepreneur/inventor) will be
immediately stolen. Countries will issue patents to protect their own
industry and therefore eliminate the protection you are dreaming about. I
am not sure about the next but I do think there is a provision for the
government to suppress technology by classify it as a 'national
interest' in the US. In my opinion that is terrible. What is national
interest? Is there an interest to allow some but not others? (Reminds me
about Orwell and that 'All animals are equal' - '*but pigs are more equal*'.
I thought WWll showed that it does not hold water - we are all on the same
planet and need to find ways to co-exist. That requires less envy and more
empowerment of others. It is NOT a zero sum game. It is the opposite - the
more you put in for others the more you will gain.

I could respond to all your statements about the government but it all ends
up as; Organizations cannot make result but people can.

This is a well-established finding.  Alpha decays in nature are between 4
and 9 MeV (approx.).  The more energy, the shorter the decay, and the less
energy, the longer the decay.  The decay rates are logarithmic in the
energy, going from 10e-3 s at 9 MeV to 4.4e17 s at 4 MeV for thorium
isotopes.  If you have a copy of Krane's "Introductory Nuclear Physics" (I
highly recommend it), this phenomenon is discussed starting on p. 251 (I'm
having trouble finding a comparable discussion on the Internet).

Re: [Vo]: How many atoms to make condensed matter?

2015-12-02 Thread David Roberson
Robin, I agree that the field strength originating from the central tiny charge 
would be the same as without the presence of the external ring once the alpha 
breaches that ring.   The main idea is that the alpha would only require an 
incoming amount of energy associated with passage from that outer ring to the 
center charge.  This would of course be a smaller energy requirement than 
without the ring being in place.

The reduction in alpha incoming energy is inversely proportional to the square 
of the radius of the outer ring.   That implies that the central charge will 
dominate the total required energy to a very large extent unless the radius of 
the outer spherical ring of negative charge is small compared to that of the 
central charge.   For this reason I also would not expect the energy reduction 
to be very large, but it should be present.

You are correct in suggesting that a symmetrical sphere of negative charge 
surrounding a nucleus would not impact the field within that nucleus.  And, one 
would not expect the alpha to be encouraged to leave a nucleus for that reason. 
 On the other hand, one leaving should enjoy less net energy than an alpha 
ejected from a bare nucleus once it has left the near region.  This appears to 
be an interesting concept.  I suppose that it implies that since the alpha was 
once part of the nucleus, it shares a portion of the energy loss that occurs 
when the external electrons shed orbital energy as the atom reaches ground 
state by electromagnetic radiation.

Robin, are you aware of any direct correlation between the energy emitted by a 
particle and its decay rate?  The spherical symmetrical shell structure should 
likely result in a slightly lower energy alpha emission by the process outlined 
above.  Even though the electric field within the nucleus would remain the 
same, the energy of the released alpha would be less.  At the moment it is not 
clear as to how to handle the energy associated with the electrons that are 
released from the atom at the same time as the alpha.

Your description of the field fluctuations occurring due to random processes 
taking place does seem logical.   What would you expect to observe if a nucleus 
that typically emits alphas is placed within a strong electric field?  For 
example, placing some of these ions within the field located between the plates 
of a high voltage capacitor?  One might expect that type of arrangement to have 
an effect upon the alpha energy and decay rate.  In this structure the field 
could be adjusted to quantify the functional relationships.

Hi,
[snip]

Dave, I like your analysis. However it implies that if the field were
spherically symmetrical alpha decay would not be enhanced since the nucleus
would not feel the external electrons at all. Since increasing the electron
density is known to slightly increase the alpha decay rate, one can only draw
the conclusion that the field is not (always) spherically symmetrical. In fact
given the high mobility of electrons, I would expect there to be very high
frequency and essentially random fluctuations in the local electron density at
any given point. A momentary peak would temporarily enhance the chances of alpha
decay. Furthermore a specific arrangement of atoms in a molecule or lattice may
well create an asymmetric field. Such fields may play a role in catalysis. (I'm
thinking especially of active sites in enzymes here.)

Hey Esa,

I see  that you, like me, are interested in the Cube.  I  am planning on
buying one  later in the day if possible. My christmass present for
myself.  Shall we keep in touch and exchange thoughts and experiences?
