In light of the new Parkomov material and the interest in "strange radiation"
it seems that there are about a dozen candidates for this phenomenon: some of
which are feasible on paper like the EVO but most are extremely unlikely. It
has come down to the rock bottom realization that either Parkomov is a fraud
like Rossi - or he actually has something of value. He should be given a chance
to prove his claims - as was Rossi who failed to perform.
In that category of feasibility is one hypothesis which has not been mentioned
recently - the Higgs.
As it turns out - if one is seeing strange radiation using nickel and hydrogen
(protium) then the Higgs may move from extraordinarily unlikely to "worth
re-mentioning". The signature of the Higgs decay is now well known and it pops
up here.
As we realize, the current measurement of the mass-energy of the Higgs is
pegged to being very close to 125 GeV. This is a huge clue for looking at other
repercussions of particular experiments. Since nickel-62 is a bit of a true
singularity in terms of physical properties, being the one single limit of
stability of all nuclei in the Periodic Table - there is further interest.
The possibility arises that the second-type of neutron featured here as a
possibility - since it can act as a participating catalyst for the joining of
two atoms of 62Ni can then provide the exact mass-energy of the Higgs. well, at
least the fit is within error bars.
The operative assumption of such a prediction becomes this (for QM at the
atomic level mass) which is that mass-is-mass at quantum level such that
anything which totals 125 GeV in mass energy within a given space -- is a
Higgs... period. Otherwise there could more than one kind of mass. That is a
provocative assumption which is worthy of its own thread. Stand by.
But it leads to a tenuous path of uniting LENR with strange radiation via the
Higgs boson... or at least the equivalent mass-energy of the Higgs.
