Subject: EXTERNAL: [Vo]:Optical Tornadoes with specific values for resonance


A key paper for those who subscribe to the SPP modality in LENR - which is 
operational in at least one form (the Holmlid effect) is: "Plasmonics with a 
Twist: Taming Optical Tornadoes on the Nanoscale" by Svetlana V. Boriskina 
(MIT).

http://arxiv.org/abs/1405.1657

Boriskina provides insight into the plasmonic focusing mechanism - which is 
necessary to focus wavelengths of visible coherent light (in the range of green 
to yellow, or 535 nm to 580 nm) down to approximately 1 nm and below. She 
explains this by invoking an analogy of the 'photon fluid' (and magneto 
hydrodynamics) where light waves will be locally amplified and upshifted via 
convective vortex acceleration. The result is like an eddy current of photons 
up to a million time more powerful than before.

Thus, the Holmlid effect is explained by trapped light which is swirled into 
optical vortices by EM fields. These are transitory tornado-like areas of 
circular/helical motion of flux. The result is magnetic fields of extreme local 
intensity (kilo-Tesla to mega-T.) which effectively compress and densify 
hydrogen into a new phase which can be well beyond metallic. Metallic hydrogen 
required compressive forces in the range of 500 GPa, but dense hydrogen 
requires at least an order of magnitude more force, which is well beyond the 
mechanical strength of a diamond anvil, for instance. The payoff is Holmlid's 
new phase of dense hydrogen which becomes stable, once formed, without added 
pressure. Metallic hydrogen is not stable in an unpressurized condition and 
immediately reverts to the gas.

The specific resonance values for the vortex formation depend on the matrix 
metal. With Holmlid's experiments using iron-oxide matrix, the resonance value 
for photons is 535 nm which is green light. For palladium, using PdCl and LiCl 
electrolyte the strongest emission line is 542 nm which is yellow green. 
Electrolysis creates its own internal photons at the emission lines of the 
electrolyte.

BTW - Boriskina apparently has no present connection to LENR per se, but as a 
theorist, she could become more important to the field than almost any other 
theorist (including Hagelstein) - to the extent that the SPP modality is shown 
to be correct. She appears to be relatively young which is bonus, should her 
insight prevail - since LERN field is aging rapidly.

Fran - The only way Holmlid's claims make sense is that the dense hydrogen
he describes is a more stable phase of hydrogen than metallic hydrogen. This
means it is a phase or isomer which does not require extreme containment.

 

For instance, we know that alloys with alkali metals will lower the pressure
requirements for metallic hydrogen by 400%. In the case of the Holmlid
phase, which I still call DDL until it is shown to be different, the species
could be stable without any pressure or with slight containment.

I just read this article in Space Daily:

http://www.spacedaily.com/m/reports/UMD_discovery_could_enable_portable_particle_accelerators_999.html

It includes some interesting aspects that I could not help wondering if they 
are relevant to Holmlid's experiment. But in particular the discussion here. 
The self focusing of the beam and acceleration and radiation aspects could be 
relevant maybe?

Here is the paper

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.02912.

The gas jet is hydrogen, so we could be seeing something similar to Holmlid.

This suggests that a beam of eV-energy photons from a laser could stimulate
inner-shell transitions in heavy atoms with binding energies in the 10s of
keVs.  A corollary is that the same thing could conceivably be accomplished
in nature simply through high levels of heat (UV photons), through some
unknown mechanism.
