That's what NAA of the putative C13 would do. If real C13 were not present, then NAA would show that clearly. That would then leave a strongly bound Hydrino as a strong contender (but not proven). Note that in phenanthrene there is no carbon atom with more than 1 H attached, so breaking up the molecule forcefully (MS) is likely to produce CH radicals (and unlikely to produce e.g. CH2 (or more) radicals). > >2. Improve performance. (Any aspect of performance: heat output, >control, or some other parameter or set of parameters). 1) Try adding Sr (either the metal itself, or a salt). This needs to be done in such a way that Sr+ vapour exists). 2) Try adding an Ar/He mixture - e.g. 5% of the gas with Ar and He ratio 50:50. These are techniques that enhance Hydrino production. nr. 2 in particular should have little effect if Hydrinos are not responsible. OTOH if phenanthrene turns out to be an excellent molecular catalyst, then Ar/He may not make much difference, even if Hydrinos are involved. As you can see therefore, everything is not as clear cut as we might like it to be. > >3. Plus it would be great if he could implement this without making >too many changes or a great deal of effort. NAA would be outsourced, just as the MS was. Adding an Ar/He mixture to the hydrogen should be simple. [snip] Regards, Robin van Spaandonk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
