as far as I understand, low energy neutrons will be a hazard because of the transmutations they cause, if the target is not controlled and safe... a neutron in iron, oxygen, carbon, may produce something radioactive, or just structural damage...
anyway as I've heard from Svein O , the paper propose that the neutrons are swapped between two nucleus after a period of entanglement, with higher probability for a swap that produce energy. No neutron can exit because it would not be energy effective... in a way this match well the idea of Ed Storms about what have to happen inside his NAE, the hydroton : a quantum object emerge with the entanglement of many atoms, and when the entanglement is broken, there is some probability that a state of lower energy is occupied. anyway I feel that we are a bit too enthusiastic on that theory proposal, as all enthusiasm before have been cooled, at least a little. 2015-10-15 21:39 GMT+02:00 John Berry <berry.joh...@gmail.com>: > Excuse my relative ignorance of nuclear physics (not my bag, baby), but if > a Neutron is ejected by conventional means, it will exit with enough energy > to pose a hazard in the ways mentioned previously. > > But being that Neutrons are not charged, if they are induced to be ejected > with comparatively low energy (slow neutron radiation), could the hazards > of radioactive isotopes and neutron radiation be mitigated? > > Of course if they are ejected with very low energy, I'm not sure how that > helps excess energy show up. > > John > > On Fri, Oct 16, 2015 at 7:33 AM, MarkI-ZeroPoint <zeropo...@charter.net> > wrote: > >> I posted a ref from physorg on Tue 10/6/2015 4:10 PM… >> >> https://www.mail-archive.com/vortex-l%40eskimo.com/msg104970.html >> >> It involves a new observation about resonance which might tie in with the >> Swede’s paper... >> >> -mark >> >> >> >> *From:* Jones Beene [mailto:jone...@pacbell.net] >> *Sent:* Thursday, October 15, 2015 9:47 AM >> *To:* vortex-l@eskimo.com >> *Subject:* RE: [Vo]:Swedish scientists claim LENR explanation >> break-through >> >> >> >> FWIW: Before pinning a medal on these guys, I want to present a contrary >> opinion. >> >> >> >> There is no scoop here.
