Robin, I respectfully disagree... I think the 'norm' is that the different forces do NOT interact, unless under extreme or unusual or specific conditions. I.e., for chemistry (electron-level interactions) and nuclear interactions, the ZPE is pretty much a non-player.
But then, wasn't it Puthoff who suggested that the reason the electron doesn't collapse into the nucleus is due to ZPE? -Mark -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2011 3:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Vo]:Old, but MAJOR clue about the Rossi CATALYST?

Testing COE requires that >ALL energy inputs and outputs, of ANY kind, must be measurable. Note that if ZPE exists, then it has always existed and interacted with every experiment ever done. IOW the conservation laws were developed in an environment in which the ZPE existed, so one might expect that it's effects are already "built in", except perhaps under extremely exceptional circumstances. Those circumstances would need to be determined if one expects an exception in this case. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/Project.html
