Ø Also of possible interest is that my rough computation for the deflated state up quark:

Ø shows that the deflated state electrons have a gamma of 36,000, and mass of 3.3 x10^-26 kg, more than the rest mass of the deuteron.


Aha ! I had a gut feeling that there was indeed a common theme or inter-connection between all of these emergent concepts and now it seems to be showing up via the deflated electron.

It is only a matter of the lack of a small amount of additional experimental data - until a workable theory can come out of all of this.


I think I have had a workable theory for some time now, though no one believes it is possible. I hope to obtain experimental evidence.


Is there deuterium or helium in the ash? That would be a start.

I am almost certain now that the transformation of nickel to copper is wrong - as the main source of energy. The copper seen is due to migration. That basic reaction Ni -> Cu made almost no sense in light of the other findings unless it came solely from 64Ni – the tiny amount of ongoing gamma radiation, barely above background, and no residual radiation in the ash do not add up.

Prediction – if helium is found it will be mostly 3He. Heck, if that turns out to be true, then the value of the byproduct could pay for everything. If anyone thinks the price of gold is high, 3He is … well shooting the moon, as they say.

If the experiment is not a boondoggle, and there was actually observed by Rossi a 30% conversion of *all* the Ni to Cu, then it could simply be the copper is not really copper. It would then seem necessary 58Ni must be involved.

I showed some potential strange reactions earlier:

http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg41755.html

You can see that one of them, as a subreaction:

p (938.27 MeV/c2) + e -> sigma+ (1189.3 MeV/c2) + K0 ( 497.6 MeV/ c2) + e

would replace a proton in the new copper with a sigma+. The resulting hyperon copper would be chemically indistinguishable from copper. I have no idea how long such material might be stable, or what the trigger energy would be to force decay kinetically if it is otherwise stable. Trigger energies for light hyperons, like helium, are very low, on the order of 20 kEv.

As I noted earlier, the following reactions work fine creating ordinary Ni in the deflation fusion process:

62Ni28 + p* --> 63Cu29 + 6.122 MeV [-1.984 MeV] (B_Ni:28)
64Ni28 + p* --> 65Cu29 + 7.453 MeV [-0.569 MeV] (B_Ni:60)


However, if 30% quantities of Cu are actually found, then some 58Ni must be transmuted to non-radioactive copper. We know 59Cu is radioactive. We don't know if 59Cu with a sigma+ replacing a proton is stable, or quasi-stable.

Note also, that the neutral lambda0 reactions can both create transmuted Ni which appears to have added neutrons . This could happen numerous times per Ni. In this way 59Ni , 60Ni, 61Ni, and 62Ni hyperons containing lambda0 particles could be created. These could then be transmuted by an ordinary transmutation, or a sigma+ creating transmutation, to produce what appears to the eye to be normal Cu, but which is not. A sample from Rossi's device showing in mass spectroscopy an unusual amount of 59Ni, and no signs of EC, would be an indictor this is happening.

All this is extremely speculative, especially given that we know almost nothing about Rossi's device.

I do find it worrisome that the gamma counts were irregular as the counter was moved about by hand. If strange quark reactions are taking place in the device, then the signature would be K0_long particles, which in part decay into positrons. They would act like neutral neutrons close to experiment, and then can decay a meter or more away from the experiment, endangering the operators. The gamma counts might actually increase with distance up to a meter away from the experiment, if the K0's are normal, further if their low excitation energy permits a longer half-life.

One thing I do now feel fairly confidant is possible, that apparently no else believes is possible, is that strange pairs exist, are created from the vacuum, within protons and neutrons, and that high mass deflated electrons, if they exist, can catalyze virtual strange quark separation into real independent quarks resident in separate fissioned particles. If this is truly feasible and safely engineerable, then infinite Isp drives are feasible, as is light speed travel, as well as an infinite source of energy.
