BTW I should give credit to Frank Grimer and Frederick Sparber for coming up with the two basic ideas behind ortho-para-hydrogen pumping at the GHz collision rate.

But it should be emphasised that if the Casimir force were to operate in ortho-para-hydrogen pumping situation, then there need only be a few hundred parts per trillion in energy assymetry, between the two states, in order to give the suspected .4-.5 eV of excess energy (assuming the figures are correct). I have the correct figure somehwere in a file and am trying to locate it.
