There is a paper by Christianto which has some interesting
relevance to the Hydrino. I posted this on the HSG forum but it
hasn't shown up yet. Seems like they think that I am too critical
of the "golden boy" over there.
On vortex, I get the impression that most observers, except for
Mike and Robin, who are big hydrino-boosters, are more critical of
the Mills-concept than I am. Many on vortex will buy-into the
reality of LENR, but not the hydrino, and certainly not the
hydrino as a predecessor condition to LENR. However, I would go
that far, but with the caveat that it is *not* the Mills-defined
hydrino, but very close.
In fact, my criticism is limited to the theory - NOT the
experiments - which are superb except for the fact that they tend
to get interpreted only in the context of a theory which has
gaping problems.
If one could combine Mills with Puthoff, Hotson and Dirac, then
that about says it all for the whole field of free-energy, to my
way of thinking. ZPE is likely to be a major source, if not the
only energy source of the oscillating hydrino. However in that
small percentage of cases where you get really substantial
shrinkage - certainly that is strongly exothermic, and would be
even more so if you used deuterium - but that may not be the bulk
of the actual OU which is seen in Mills.
However on HSG, apparently any suggestion that Mills could have
made major errors, even tried to hide them, or have a personal
agenda (big prize or big IPO) which agenda is leading him astray
of both factuality and honesty - is met with utmost rancor and
threats of silencing the critics. Perhaps I am in line to be
silenced. If so, that may be more a reflection on them than on my
occasional recourse to the soapbox. Anyway - Here is the

To paraphrase:
There are cosmic phenomena indicating that a fractional
quantization of orbits of macro objects exists, which may support
one of the Hydrino hypotheses. For instance the known
gravitational-shepherding effect of belts surrounding certain
large planets, and also Kirkwood gaps (known since 1857). These
are also "quantum-like" gaps in the Asteroid Belt, where one does
not find asteroids. One gap corresponds to a body having an
orbital period exactly half that of Jupiter.
Similar simple relationships between the orbital periods define
the other gaps. An analysis of these gaps showed that they
corresponded to simple whole fractions of Jupiter's orbital
period - just as in the micro situation of hydrogen shrinkage. At
the time, no theory could adequately explain the gaps as a result
of gravitational interactions, and certain astronomers believed
the gaps were present at the inception of the solar system.
Recent studies have revealed interesting relationship, which some
researchers have called 'fractal orbital resonance'. While this is
an interesting alternative explanation, this argument was based on
dynamics instead of quantum mechanics.
Christianto has proposed some theoretical reasoning to produce
that fractional Bohr radius for the hydrogen atom - at a
succession of redundant ground states (and also at respective
excited states), provided some conditions of energy are met. He
has proposed a modification (superset) of the Mills math, which
results in a more complete form of equation.
There are some other citations in this paper that others may have
not studied. They are both good news and bad for CQM and Mills, in
that they do support the fractional orbit hypothesis, but NOT in a
permanent state, which is at the core of the Mills theory. The
hydrino becomes an oscillating semi-permanent state.
As a few of us have opined, the hydrino may be a *real* but
temporary state, where the "real" source of excess energy, if it
exists, is ZPE. Bluhm et al. (going back a decade) have found
similar results and obtained the semi-stable radius of hydrogen
atom at less than the ground state Bohr radius. These researchers
utilize a different method, i.e. short-pulse laser excites a
coherent superposition of Rydberg states. This treatment results
in a cycle as follows: collapse followed by fractional revival
then full revivals.
However, it is interesting to note, they find the structure of
full revivals is different from the structure at fractional
revivals. This approach could be compared with an elastic ball
with a void inside the surface. Once we hit the ball against the
floor, it will shrink within a short time and then get it initial
forms again. Fred Sparber has linked this to the Casimir force.
This is also in keeping with Puthoff's viewpoint that ZPE is
responsible for - not only the Mills phenomenon - but the Bohr
radius itself. IOW it is ZPE which keeps the electron from
collapse. Hotson has added the details about the epo lattice which
is necessary.
Mills has consistently pooh-poohed Puthoff, and why not - it is
direct competition, and it precedes Mills by years. But as Pete
Zimmerman stated some time ago "Hal Puthoff has been associated
with ZPE, mental telepathy, Uri Geller and spoon bending, remote
viewing and other rather foolish things. [Zimmerman's comment, not
mine] But the fact remains that when he puts his mind to it, he's
a pretty good theorist, and despite his reputation his stuff gets
published in Phys Rev and it gets read [snip] I consider Puthoff
an example that Mills should emulate. Puthoff, in spite of the
baggage, gets read and taken seriously by serious scientists;
Mills doesn't. Mills is secretive; Puthoff isn't. And that's
certainly why few researchers will rearrange their research
careers to try and replicate Mills' stuff published in obscure
journals.
