Ron, Most interesting. It would be fantastic if this model works - or even helps in any way.
Please keep vortex informed of anything that turns up as you dig deeper, and I will also try to delve into Brightsen. Like many who are looking for answers from non-traditional sources (outside the big fizzix monopoly) I was aware of this theory, and knew that it had some supporters and detractors; and also knew that for years Mills had this strange anti-gravity connection to the electron only. Wouldn't it be a hoot if Rossi's work somehow turns up the way that Mills was almost correct, yet in a way that Brightsen can explain better than Mills, and Rossi has no clue on theory - but that Mills nevertheless achieves his claim-to-fame as the discoverer of an anti-gravity machine, and not a viable energy machine. Life is stranger than fiction. This is almost science fiction. Jones -----Original Message----- From: Ron Wormus Thanks, for posting this. I hadn't taken the time to read it & it seems that it may support some background research I have been trying to do on Brightsen's "cluster model" in regard to Rossi's E-cat. BTW Mill's nice SS is quite a contrast to Rossi's Cu plumbing parts isn't it. Anyway, I dug out what material I still had from the mid 90's on Brightsen & his model which seems able to explains Rossi's (and others) transmutation results quite well. I have always had trouble getting my head around his "anti-matter" in the nucleus idea. However, if you search "Anti-Hydrogen" there is quite a lot of ongoing research in this area but the consensus is that gravity will affect anti-matter in the same direction as matter due to Einstein's equivalence principle which would shoot down Brightsen's theory. If I read Mill's 5th force experiment correctly he is stating that he has shown that gravitational mass & inertial mass are not equivalent which supports Brightsen. Since Brightsen died in 2001 there is really not much that I can find that is still available online on his cluster model. I have some old hard copy stuff I printed in the mid-90's & have ordered some back issues of "Infinite Energy" that have some of his articles (I should have them next week). He & Mallove also filed a patent W094/03906 or PCT/US93/07444 for a method of changing decay rates by NMR at defined temperatures for specific "Clusters" within heavy nuclei. I haven't been able which I can't track it down but it would be interesting to read. Do you have any material on Brightsen or any thoughts on my take on this idea (my background for this type stuff is pretty sketchy)? I'd like to use my MAHG stuff to try a Rossi type experiment. Ron Here is something I found in a Physics forum but the link is dead. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- "As for Mr. Brightsen, his papers are available at this link: http://www.brightsenmodel.phoenixrising-web.net. Mr. Brightsen passed away in 2001--he left much unanswered about the "dynamics" of this nucleon cluster model. I serve as webmaster for this site to allow for his model to be studied and debated. The Brightsen Model starts with a basic axiom that unbound protons [P] and neutrons [N] do not exist in beta-stable isotopes--this is what makes his cluster model unique. This is of course counter to the standard shell model which is widely held in nuclear physics. Because his model does not allow for unbound nucleons in isotopes, he has a problem with 1-H-1, the proton. He solves the problem by a hypothesis that the proton [P] is in fact a quantum superposition of different combinations of matter and antimatter nucleon clusters. For example, 1-H-1 can be formed by union of a matter [PNP] cluster + antimatter [N^P^] where ^ = antimatter. If one views each cluster as having a unique wavefunction, then the superposition principle of QM requires that when the two waves meet, their amplitudes add, but no mass is added or taken away. This is just the way QM works--when waves meet they always add because the waves are not "physical things". Next, applying complex number formalism z = x+yi the two clusters can form a stable superposition with a real part [P] within the same field as an imaginary part {[NP][N^P^]}. When we collapse the superposed wavefunction at low energy we "observe" what we call "the proton" [P]--when we use high energy in accelerators we observed the quark collapse of the imaginary {[NP][N^P^]}, which always appears as pions (matter quark+antimatter quark). The above is my understanding of how the Brightsen Model may work, it was not discussed by Mr. Brightsen in any of his papers. One will note that the above explains the so-called "missing mass" of the universe--it is not missing, it is found within 1-H-1, the neutron, and deuteron as "antimatter" according to the Brightsen Model. Another unique prediction of the Brightsen Model is that the stable union between matter and antimatter within 1-H-1 requires the ever presence of a new field force--gravity (from matter) linked with antigravity (from antimatter). When energy is applied to this "proton superposition", the QM superposition principle demands that the two initial wavefunction will separate entirely unchanged in terms of mass. Thus, the Brightsen Model predicts that the source of antimatter in proton interactions with heavy elements such as copper (a very common experiment) is the release of the antimatter [P^] and [N^] that exists within the element 1-H-1. Of great importance is that when the energy used is very low (i.e. cold) the imaginary [NP] and [N^P^] clusters emerge to allow for transmutation of heavy elements--that is, the Brightsen Model predicts one possible "dynamic" for what is called "cold fusion". Now to question of negative mass. The Brightsen Model predicts that the "effective mass" for "antihydrogen" will always be "negative one". The term effective mass comes from a basic equation for all beta-stable isotopes derived from the Brightsen Model, (NP+NPN) + 2 (NP) = Z, where Z = number of "net positive charge" protons in a nuclei. Z takes the form of "net negative protons" where there are an excess of antimatter (negative) mass units. For example, antihydrogen can be formed by quantum superposition between [P^N^P^] antimatter cluster and [NP] matter cluster, and thus form the "effective negative mass" = (-1) for the antihydrogen. Finally, here are some comments provided by nuclear physicist Steve Nelson on the "anti-mass" (negative mass) predictions of the Brightsen Model for antihydrogen: ....The model you mention has a major problem with mass, and I note from one article relies on antimatter having an anti-mass. Anti-hydrogen is being created and trapped at CERN, and a hydrogen interferometer is being constructed by some groups I know. In a couple years, they'll have accurate measurements of the gravitational acceleration of antihydrogen and compare it with hydrogen. If antihydrogen turns out to have the same acceleration as normal hydrogen, there's no room for a model with extra mass. If it's exactly opposite in sign then there's room to return to this model to try and construct some predictive equations ...." --On Wednesday, April 20, 2011 7:52 AM -0700 Jones Beene <[email protected]> wrote: > > http://www.blacklightpower.com/theory/theorypapers/F%5E2%20102307web3.pdf >
