Benabou have a vision which is not far.
for him it is not desire but fear that push such crowd-suicide name
groupthink.

The idea is that in a herd, you are killed if you disagree, and you cannot
escape if you see the error.
Your herd also may survive long if there is not too much dissenters to
allow immediate sanctions for the error.

so your interest is
- not dissent or you are killed
- kill any dissenter

not to worry you have
- to behave as if you know that you are in delayed group suicide, and
battle to keep the pack strong until  an end you cannot stop, but have to
delay.
- to sincerely think you are right and all is fine, and that you are on the
camp of Good.

the solution is to rationalize, to ignore dissenting data, to bias all you
competence in logic, not to see the problem, to bias all your ethic to
justify you awful behavior...

See how they violate basic first order logic when talking of unreliable but
numerous replication.
See how they violate academic ethic.

you cannot be so incompetent. It is superior intelligence, not stupidity.
just selfish.

White dwarfs have strong magnetic fields from BEC and supra
conducting. 

Part of the WD may also have periodic crystal structure.
The main deferens is the neutral atomic hydrogen in metal hydrides.


This may point toward theories involving electrons as in Storms
theory. 

Maybe you are right Mr Franks, but no one have come with a
good explanation how multiple methods of calorimetrical could have
failed so much. 

If you want to debunk CF you must do this thing. You

I would define an infinite COP as a reaction with no input power, and some
level of output power. An example would be a burning match. A reactor melt
down would be caused by a reaction with no limiting factor controlling

The magnetic field is atomic level. The next step in the research that the
Ni/H reactor developers need to do is measure the magnetic fields that they
are developing in their reactions. This can be done using sub-micron hall

FQHE reduces the inherent charge of fermions as a function of increasing
magnetic field.

The nucleus is a fermion, the protons and neutrons are fermions and so are
quarks.

Why should a magnetic field make a distinction in the way it reduces charge
is the various types of fermions? I won't.

So do you encourage people working on Bessler's Wheel, Steorn, SMOT devices
when they keep banging up against known theory (and hence experimental
observations) that in a conservative field, what you gain going down, you
give going up?

WHAT IS THE NEW ANGLE THAR EVERYONE IS MISSING?

So the belief is that it has nothing to do with temperature, pressure,
proximity but something to do with the lattice. Please expand on this.

If you are suggesting BEC, well electrons are leptons and light, how can
you get heavy hadrons into one coherent state at room temperature? If this
is the case, has CF been observed to occur spontaneously in liquid H2?

Re: [Vo]: White Dwarves

2013-12-19 Thread David Roberson
This is just another clue to the puzzle.  One day it will all make sense and I 
assume that Mr. Franks will regret that he has acted so closed minded about the 
issue.  Hopefully, he will realize how much he has to learn about physics.  No 
one has all the answers and perhaps he might actually be capable of asking 
questions that are revealing.

The white dwarf consideration has validity since it does represent a case that 
seems strange at first glance.  But, the real process might be coming from the 
low temperature side of the scale instead of the more usual hot end.  The 
theories relating to BEC contribution to cold fusion would tend to work better 
in that domain.

Of course we all have seen evidence that absolute zero conditions are not 
generating cold fusion, so is it reasonable to ask about extremely high 
temperature effects upon hot fusion?  I have a strong suspicion that hot fusion 
would likewise be extinguished at the extremes of high temperature.  Of course 
this is true in particle accelerators and I suspect that these types of 
interactions become strongly endothermic as new particles are constructed out 
of the input energy of the devices.

Apparently, to get exothermic nuclear reactions requires a special band of 
reactant energy.  Why LENR works at the low end remains a question that will 
hopefully be answered soon.

Mr. Franks, it would appear that you might find great fame if you work toward 
finding a solution to the questions surrounding LENR instead of merely 
complaining about the current level of progress.  Surely, you must realize that 
far more remains unknown in the field of physics than has been uncovered so 
far.  Do you believe that everything is known as of this time?  I would like to 
hear your answer to this reasonable question.

Jed, you hit the hard point that I found in an article (a recent message).

Your position is evident for someone with good scientific culture and good
practical sense, but not "brainwashed" by academic training of Popper
science philosophy .

It is evident if you are not popper-distorted that to prove the reality of
a phenomenon, you just have to confirm the result of few experiments.
Negative results are just failures, like is the crash of an early plane.

However when you think that Popper rules the truth, and you forget logic,
then you take any negative results as refutation of a theory...
But cold fusion is not a theory, it is an anomaly.
If you interpret Popper with a good logic, you see that Cold fusion is the
famous "refutation" of a theory... one confirmed result is enough to refute
the mainstream theory...

only bad reasoning, non-logic heuristics and habits influenced by Popper,
may make very intelligent people able to stupidly say that one experience
that fail to show a phenomenon is an evidence that all the others that show
it are artifact, and not an obvious failure to fulfill unknown requirements.

a typical fallacy influenced by non logic reasoning as neural network does


they mismatch the positively  "negative-result" where a theory fails with
the "failure" of cold fusion experiments which is of opposite kind.


quickly answer to those 3 question, in less than 1 second:
what is the color of blank paper ?
what is the color of a golf ball ?
what does cows drink ?

and you will see the result of a neural reasoning.

Yes R. A. ORIANI, JOHN C. NELSON, SUNG-KYU LEE, and J. H. BROADHURST
 University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota are just like Bessler's
Wheel crowd:

Conducting a replication of a device's extraordinary effect which they
attempted (unlike Nathan Lewis et al) AFTER the publication of the full
paper describing the experimental protocol to be replicated, and then
submitting a paper on that replication to "Nature" for peer review.

The peer reviewers had comments on needed corrections.  That right there
proves Oriani et al are kooks to anyone in their right mind.  No reputable
scientist has any second drafts submitted to a journal as prestigious as
"Nature" in response to peer review and expects that revised draft to be
published.

Oh, but Oriani et al were clearly not reputable because they went ahead and
provided the corrections, submitted to "Nature" the draft for peer review
and the peer reviewers, not realizing they were being "had" by obviously
invalid publishing protocol, reviewed the revised draft!!

Outrageous.

What's even more outrageous is that they not only reviewed it -- they
passed it on to the editors of "Nature" to publish!

We can all be grateful to the editors of "Nature" for telling it like it is
in their rejection letter to Oriani -- that this experimental outcome
doesn't fit with theory so -- circular file time.

This is an interesting thought experiment.  But it begs three questions:

* Does the effective pressure created by the lattice spacing in the host metal 
force the hydrogen into fusing? I think this hypothesis was abandoned a long 
time ago by most people.

* Does electron degenerate matter share the critical parameters that are in the 
environments in which excess heat is observed? My initial assumption is that it 
would not, but this is all speculative.

* Is cold fusion *not* occurring on white dwarves?  You made an initial pass at 
a prima facie case that it is not, but the arguments for and against are quite 
speculative at this point (e.g., re blackbody radiation).

You have that backward. Cold fusion was discovered by experiment. We know
it is real because it has been widely replicated, often at high signal to
noise ratios. There is no theory to explain it.

You seem to believe that science must begin with theory and then proceed to
experiment. That does happen from time to time, but more often it begins
with a discovery which only later is explained by theory.

Even if you can show that theory predicts cold fusion cannot exist, that
only proves the theory is wrong. It is fundamental to the scientific method
that when theory and experiment conflict, experiment always wins.

It may be that you are not familiar with the experimental evidence, such as
heat beyond the limits of chemistry, the fact that no chemical fuel exists
in the cells and no chemical changes are found, and the tritium and helium.
I suggest you learn about these things before commenting on this research.

I suggest you tone it down, and do your homework.

You're just like the Bessler's Wheel crowd. You're convinced that some new
arrangement of the weights and arm length will make the wheel turn around
in perpetuity.

Everyone will tell you, until you sort out the mechanism (not nuts and
bolts) but how this would be possible in a conservative field, there is
little point in experimenting.

Another way... it's like this, we know wheels are round, so there is little
point in experimenting in the shape of wheels (on a flat surface that is)
convincing yourself that some magical arrangement is going to be more
efficient than a flat wheel.

If you are going to do research, you have to say your logical point of
departure. It is not enough to have hope or belief, you have to say where
in the theory base everyone is getting it wrong. Theory is a summary of
experiments, all the billions of person hours that have been put in. Like
Bessler's Wheel, CF is trying to do the impossible because it cannot say
how it could possibly work in the first instance. Coupled with
observational data (how white dwarves are cooling, not heating), just what
do you have as a starting point?

Dr. Franks will be gratified to learn that this kook died recently -- still

Why should I buy his book? Why can't he give a brief overview? Why can't he
just write a Hamiltonian so we can see what he's on about? If it's some
exchange type interaction, wouldn't the wavefunctions have to overlap or
there would be some mediating particle with spin, even then all it would do
is align the spins. If he is saying that electromagnetism is mediating
fusion, why does it do such a good job preventing it?

They are all working with the strong force.  It need high temps to work.

The only thing a metal lattice has is periodicity, it certainly wouldn't
have the density of a white dwarf. So, this leads to the question, what has

This reminds me of the question posed by Morrison: Why doesn't cold fusion
occur in heavy water ice?

To address your question, let me quote Schwinger, "The defense is simply
stated: The circumstances of cold fusion are not those of hot fusion." A
metal lattice does not resemble the inside of the sun. They are about as
different as any two configurations of matter could be.

Further furthermore if 90% of main sequence stars end up as white dwarves
when they have finished hot fusion, according to their limits, why don't
they go on burning in a CF manner so that the sky is full of UV,Xray or
even gamma ray dwarves? As the temperature built up again thermal runaway
would occur as radiation would be limited by the small size and SB law so
that hot fusion would occur again and a supernova would result. In that
case all main sequence stars would end up as neutron stars or black holes
and the sky would be littered with them.

If CF is real, why doesn't it occur in white dwarves with their high
temperature and pressure electron degenerate matter? After all, that is the
belief system of CF in cramming these lattices with hydrogen.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_dwarf

"The material in a white dwarf no longer undergoes fusion reactions, so the
star has no source of energy, nor is it supported by the heat generated by
fusion against gravitational collapse."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-degenerate_matter#Degenerate_gases

"Under high densities the matter becomes a degenerate gas when the
electrons are all stripped from their parent atoms. In the core of a star,
once hydrogen burning in nuclear
fusion reactions
stops, it becomes a collection of positively charged
ions,
largely helium and carbon nuclei, floating in a sea of electrons, which
have been stripped from the nuclei. Degenerate gas is an almost perfect
conductor of heat and does not obey the ordinary gas laws. White
dwarfs are
luminous not because they are generating any energy but rather because they
have trapped a large amount of heat."

Furthermore,

The density of white dwarves is some 10^6g/cm^3 compared to water at
1g/cm^3. This would mean that the inter-nuclei spacing was 1/100 of water.

Now Muon catalyzed fusion
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muon-catalyzed_fusion which
we know works brings the nuclei 1/207 of the distance with electrons. It
happens at an appreciable rate.

since white dwarves are not more luminous than a black body radiating away
with the Stefan Boltzmann law, we can conclude that there are no nuclear
reactions AND that is the limit of what can be done with ordinary matter.
