First, try other layouts. If that doesn't work, then try the pdf version at:- http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/theory-paper.pdf > >Otherwise, it is most interesting and the lissajous idea has always seemed to >be an elegant solution (so elegant it is a surprise it has not been "borrowed" >by RM ;-) - but one further suggestion that stands out now is a way to falsify >the conclusion. One possible way is via alternative containment. Even the largest Mills Hydrino is too small to contain permanently in it's neutral state. In fact even the molecule is probably too small. However the Hydride is automatically contained because it forms ionic compounds with any normal ionic species (i.e. salts/ceramics or metals). However once they shrink below the minimum Hydride forming size, they are essentially lost, unless used immediately. At least that's currently my best guess. I suppose there is a chance that they can form a covalent bond with heavier atoms, but that's just a guess; one of the many things that needs to be investigated. > >Since the radius of your version of this species is the square of Mills' >version - there can be no effective containment, one would think (??); as most >all structural materials would be porous to a fraction of any such species.

I don't think containment is going to be an effective means of determining which theory is correct. A more likely means of deciding is the ease with which fusion is achieved, since that is much easier under my model, than under Mills'. > >How would one know, even if it were true, that ultra reduced radius hydinos >were there ? Perhaps the very small ones can pass right through other atoms, but I think the larger ones will at least will scatter off local magnetic fields, and possibly off local electric fields (i.e. electron to electron), IOW off other atoms. That implies that they will exert a pressure on their "containment" vessel. >Perhaps a hard vacuum outside a reactor where hydrinos are formed, and with a >MgO coating or window, and following that - the appearance of H2 on >reinflation Sorry, you've lost me.

You might be right. :) Regards, Robin van Spaandonk <[email protected]>
