Something heretofore unnoticed,altering the vacuum/aether inside the Van de Graaff Sphere?
Barker US 5,076,971 DEC 31 1991 "Gamma decay enhancement, like alpha decay enhancement, is long range but there is no Coulomb barrier to magnify the effect. All nuclei change their shapes from spherical to ellipsoidal etc. Gamma radiation occurs as a result of the oscillations of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Tests were conducted to show that a positive or negative voltage on a Van de Graaff generator accelerates beta and alpha decay. One beta and two alpha emitters were placed inside the generator sphere, charged to a voltage of 350+75 kv, for a period of twelve hours. When the voltage was switched off, the measured activity oscillated through substantial variations. After three days the measured depletion was about 1% for Tl 204, about 7% for Po 210 and about 2.6% for Th 230. After seven days, the depletion had increased to about 5.3%, about 55.3% and about 81.8%, respectively. It is expected that the depletion will continue to background for all three sources within about 60 days. A depletion "burn" can be initiated in an alpha emitter with a Van de Graaff voltage of about -50 kv in a time interval of 20 minutes or so. The alpha depletion is primarily due to the alpha excitation 2e.phi.." ----- Original Message ----- From: Frederick Sparber To: vortex-l Sent: 11/30/2006 1:47:05 PM Subject: Re: Polarized Vacuum, Light Speed And Nuclear Remediation Hoyt Stearns mentioned shining a light beam between the plates of a capacitor with high potential applied to see if the light speed changed. The high voltage transmission lines of the power grid should work for either a light beam or radar echo of miles long paths, Hoyt. The vacuum/aether seems to control the internal "clock" of particles/quarks, (a gamma of about 10^18th for the proton quarks and 10^20th for the electron-positron. Thus a radioisotope with a few hundred or thousand year half-life should be susceptable to clock change with only a slight change in the vacuum/aether properties (PV?) by high E-Field interaction. Barker claimed the high E-Field remediation of rad-wastes years ago. Deja Vu on radioactivity under power lines, Jones? Fred
