From Akira translation of thread by Roy Virgilio who attended Saturday's LENR
talk in Viareggio
[snip] Piantelli doesn't use catalysts, at least in the term's literal
meaning. His technology is based mainly on nickel preparation, i.e.
powder geometry/size and deposition size (in a multilayered manner). It
isn't known yet if the nickel he uses is doped/enriched.[/snip]
Akira,
Once again the clues point to size, shape and packing arrangement of
nano powders leading to the geometry which produces anomalous heat. IMHO normal
catalytic action is also based on "geometry" but at the atomic level which is
wrapped into our understanding of chemistry and the periodic chart... Puthoff's
atomic model of a balance between vacuum pressure and an atom's zero state is
being accumulated in a segregated fashion by Casimir geometry such that entire
regions outside a cavity can have a slightly higher energy density while tiny
confined [suppressed] areas inside the cavity have a concentrated lower density
often described as negative that balances the shallow field outside the cavity.
When you load these quantum fields with hydrogen you have an exotic form of
relativistic matter because the energy of these gas atoms is not the result of
spatial velocity or individual chemical interaction but rather is conferred
upon the hydrogen by the modified vacuum energy density [suppressed environment
through which it is travelling] - this is similar to the 9.8m/s^2 we feel
gratis of the earth's mass but negative and without any slow gradients it can
change as rapidly as the relative motion between the gas and the rigid Casimir
geometry through which it is migrating. My point is that when Naudts posited
the hydrino as relativistic it was really the restriction of longer vacuum
wavelengths gratis of Casimir suppression that made it so and that any matter
inside the cavity would also appear relativistic due to the negative energy
density.
