Horace,
Thanks! I finally followed this subject without my eyes glazing
over and I resaved your explanation as "Quarks and Hadrons" to my
desktop for future reference.
This is all explained in my articles in context, and at a high school
or amateur level. I get the feeling no one reads my articles because
my writing ability is so limited, and my style so dry and boring. I
guess I need graphics or something.
My only question is if your theory is exclusive regarding Casimir
effect at these nulear scales vs effects at larger scales?
I'm not sure what the above means. The Casimir effect, though
involved, is not key to the Deflation Fusion theory. Quantum
uncertainty and zero point energy are involved in the extreme, and,
at nuclear dimensions, are vastly larger than at atomic dimensions.
My point is that the changes in local Casimir geometry of a cavity
across different scales appears to result in catalytic action such
as seen in a skeletal catalyst (but not in a nano tube where very
little change in Casimir geometry occurs). We know this is related
to change in vacuum energy density due to suppression which is why
I extended Naudts' posit of relativistic hydrogen to a relativistic
interpretation of Casimir effect.
The Casimir effect is undoubtedly involved in chemical catalysis and
chemical reactions in general, as well as physical material effects.
The end result of this interpretation is that "catalyzed" reactants
are unaware they are being accelerated because it is via time
dilation. The attosecond durations you refer to are unchanged
locally but in a relative interpretation would occur millions of
times more frequently from our perspective outside the catalyst.
Effectively we outside the catalyst are approaching luminal
velocity relative to a negatively accelerated cavity and like the
space faring twin age slower relative to the less accelerated twin.
Granted this is equivalent acceleration not spatial but we see time
dilation at the bottom of a gravity well that slows time and
increases energy density so suppressing energy density should have
the opposite effect.

As you may remember from prior discussions, I don't understand or buy
into the above. My impression is these things need to be described
quantitatively, at least within several orders of magnitude. Keep in
mind how very small atomic level cavity effects that have been
observed experimentally actually are:

I also don't want to spend time extensively debating the casimir
cavity subject from a point of view that expects extensive
relativistic effects due to atomic sized cavities, such as major time
dilation. This is your theory and I certainly support your
expressing it, developing it, and answering questions about it. It
would also be very useful if you could quantify it in some way. It
is very relevant material for vortex-l. However, I do not feel
anyone is obligated to discuss or buy into any particular theory in
depth, especially my theory, just because they belong to a newslist.
I take lurking to be as fundamental a newslist right as free speech.
We all have to decide where it is best to spend our time and effort.
I encourage you to comment on my or anyone else's theories from your
perspective, based on and in the terminology of your theory, but
please don't be offended if I don't respond if it is just too foreign
to my way of thinking and mental models of reality to respond
meaningfully and without huge effort.
Best regards,
