*If you remember some time ago, I was concerned that the LENR reaction would produce a boatload of muons since Holmlid suggested that LENR might be based on ultra-dense hydrogen. But over the course of time, this concern was not well founded, even though it should absolutely be the case. Just like the absence of gamma rays, positrons, and neutrons, this lack of products that should accompany any nuclear or sub-nuclear reaction that the LENR reaction should produce is profoundly confusing.*
*Furthermore, from studying LENR results over the years, it is becoming increasingly apparent to me that LENR has a major issue to deal with. LENR makes matter and energy disappear. A major problem with LENR reactors is that they fall apart over time. This highly corrosive effect that these reactors suffer is due to this nasty issue of matter and energy degeneration. This degenerative process only gets worse when the power output level of the reactor goes up.* *And yet the amazing contradiction that the LENR reaction presents is that it does not produce any high energy particles or ionizing radiation. The question that hangs in the air is where does all that matter and energy go when the LENR reaction is active?* *At this current juncture, the reactor meltdown/corrosion problem has delayed any LENR application from reaching a successful conclusion. LENR is highly corrosive of the structure of the reactor as a function of its power output. Clearly, LENR's ability to corrode the structure of the reactor is a function of its power output. A low powered LENR reactor will function for a long time but its usefulness is limited. A high output reactor even if it is built like a tank does not perform for very long.* *The lack of nuclear reaction byproducts and the corrosion issue might well be connected.* *In addition, I think that transmutation happens when the LENR reaction has completed. For some unknown reason the LENR reaction in the LION diamond was episodic. There were three episodes when the LENR reaction came alive. Each of the episodes of activity produced a different transmutation product. But at the end of each episode of activity, each time the identical transmutation product was deposited at the ends of many tunnels. The miners were all contained inside the tunnels that they excavated. But they all behaved identically and communicated. They all acted in concert to transmute carbon into identical elements when they were active.* *From what we saw how the miners worked inside diamond, the transmuted elements are held in invisible suspension through QM superposition inside the flux tube until the LENR reaction had completed. Then the transmuted elements stabilized into their final form. We saw the diamond disappear as the miners excavated the tunnel, Then when the LENR reaction finalized, the transmutated elements appeared at the far end of the tunnel.* *When I considered what happens to the matter that the miners excavated from their tunnels, I got confused. There are spaces inside those completely closed tubes. Where did that matter go? Where did the energy from transmutation of carbon go? There was a lot of transmutation but very little if any damage produced by heat evident inside those tubes. The matter that was removed from those tubes could have supported the energy needs of a city for a year is it was transformed into energy.* *I think that transmutation happened when the LENR reaction completed.

They all acted in concert to transmute carbon into identical elements when they were active.* *Here is my take on this issue. I believe that LENR involves the interaction of two major cosmological principles: Quantum mechanical superposition and general relativity. Through looking at the results of some recent LENR experiments, it appears that during the LENR reaction, time stops inside the Black EVO as discovered by Ken Shoulders. When LENR active processes occur, such as transmutation and superposition/tunneling, they occur under a condition where time is not moving forward. This superposition proceeds as a macro level quantum mechanical process that is occurring were both material and energy in bulk is made to dematerialize or tunnel possibly in a state of coherent superposition. This coherent material may be removed in a condition that is out of sync with normal matter and time and being in the state of superposition not able to interact with its previously normal form except through the force of gravity. Remaining perpetually coherent, it is a superfluid. This lack of energy and particle realization while the LENR reaction is active could be why LENR has not killed the experimenters that work with LENR reactors.* *This disappearing corroded matter and energy could be where dark matter is coming from.* *In summary, this dark matter could be the result of a continuing ubiquitous in as not yet recognized intersection of general relativity and quantum mechanical tunneling during this corrosion process that transforms normal matter into a ghost state possibly through a time based out of sync situation between normal matter and space-time. * *We should not make certain assumptions about the LENR reaction and the reactors that produce it. LENR may have many mind bending situations ahead for those who what to tame its secrets.* On Sat, Jul 13, 2019 at 5:22 PM Jed Rothwell <[email protected]> wrote: > I believe that if Mizuno's results are correct, and especially if Ed > Storms' theory is right, this design will be the precursor to all future > devices.
