I just want to remind some folks here that H*-H*, the only existing from of dense hydrogen (besides D*-D*) has been measured by multiple methods by Randal Mills, now some 3 years ago. Also Holmlid tried to measure the H*H* bond energy but he did work with clusters of H* that suffer from

In reply to Jones Beene's message of Sat, 23 Apr 2022 19:22:56 + (UTC): Hi, There is way more Hydrogen on Earth than Helium. So, if Hydrogen shrinkage can deliver energy, then we are better off using that. Besides, Hydrogen shrunk to that size (a few fm), would probably undergo fusion

If the 2.8328 fermi mentioned in the paper is multiplied by the inverse of alpha, the fine structure constant (alpha =1/137.035999), then you get the radius of Randell Mills' TSO (Transition State Orbitsphere) https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0370269319303624 the radius of

On the possibility of "dense helium" - shall we call it the "alpharino" ? Helium, unlike hydrogen, will not diffuse through metals - so long as the metal is nonporous. The first step in densification is (probably) diffusion... but that problem may not be the end-of-story. Raney nickel for

Update... I haven't done any experiments yet, but I have refined my thinking about the nature of cooling or frigorific radiation. Instead of striving for extremely low temperatures, I recently realised it should be possible to look for cooling radiation between bodies which have a large relative
