If that word "radiationless" conjures up Randy Mills CQM - and it should -
it is no accident that all of these things are inextricably connected. Nor
is it coincidence that Randy was led to the R&D by his work on the Mössbauer
effect - which is radiative but almost nonlossy. IOW it portends a photon
chain reaction. What happens when you get to nonradiative and nonlossy?
Hagelstein? Phonon chain reaction? get it?
MC: Jones, a very interesting observation. But, regarding a phonon as a
particle is a bit like the 'hole' in semiconductors. Its existence is a
matter of the cooperative movement of 'real' particles. In the case of
Mills' resonant transfer, it operates in vacuum without the cooperation of
other particles. Mills cites the Forster effect as an example of such
transfer, whilch is probably a matter of near-field electromagnetism which
does not generate a photon. Mills has proposed a cancer therapy exploiting
the Mossbauer effect. The energy applications arise from the orbitsphere
model of the atom. Mills may continue his medical research in the future.
