Argon hydrideJones-- You may be right, however the magnetic fields may be very high at the location of the Ar and are changing the nuclear spin energy states such that resonances with the ambient EM radiation occur and produce a visible signal above the noise resulting from a stimulated emission of a local group of Ar atoms as they decay to a grou-d state – a nuclear spin energy x-ray laser.
Nuclear gasers are not new. Literatureve in the 70s and 80s was extensive. Bob Cook From: Jones Beene Sent: Sunday, May 24, 2015 1:55 PM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: [Vo]:Argon hydride This Science story came out last year – but even many experts did not pick up on the major implication – which is that an inert gas, argon, can combine with hydrogen into a stable ion on a very large scale… in the right circumstances, of course. Many ions are stable in space but not on earth - yet in this case we are talking about massive quantities of this species existing in a zone of extremely high radiation. http://www.universetoday.com/107154/argon-the-first-noble-gas-discovered-in-space/ This location (zone of extremely high radiation) means, essentially, that the ion is especially stable compared to other species which could pick up protons and form molecular ions. And for those of us on the fringe – there is a further implication: that the argon-hydride occurrence is probably not unique to space, nor as simple to explain chemically as it sounds. There are implications for LENR. In fact the hydrogen which forms this molecule is almost certainly fractional – f/H. (that is an opinion, not proved, based on the circumstances and the high stability) The author says: “The light coming from certain regions of the Crab Nebula showed extremely strong and unexplained peaks in intensity around 618 gigahertz and 1235 GHz.” By comparing data of known properties of different molecules, the conclusion is that the mystery emission is the spinning molecular ion: argon hydride ArH+. What’s more, the only argon isotope which could spin like this is argon-36, which is less than one percent of argon on earth (most is Ar-40). That is another story but it suggests that this ion could eventually fuse and decay over time into chlorine, which is 30,000 times more abundant than argon. It would appear the energy released from the neutron star in the Crab Nebula (which is a supernova recorded by Chinese astronomers in 1054) ionizes the reactants, along with all other gases, but which combine preferentially as argon hydride, resulting in the extremely strong signal. Of course, the mainstream explanation cannot explain why there is so much ArH+ (or why there is any at all) but an alternative version of CQM can possibly explain this as proton capture in a favored 3p orbital containing Rydberg value electrons. As a noble gas, argon’s orbitals are completely filled 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 and it resists ionization, but Argon can become a positive ion simply by capturing a resonant proton in a Rydberg orbital - which is then “shared” with the resultant f/H species. (this is a non-Millsean explanation which seems to work better under the circumstances and lack of corresponding UV radiation). Jones
