'life-after-death' is probably not an apt term. to me it is more of a post-mortem analysis, ie analyzing the reactant after the process has stopped.
Higher order transmutations or not. As to the basics of the effect, it becomes increaingly clera to me, that a) this is a grid-effect b) that irregular/'dirty' grids perform better. If one considers Piantelli as someone worth listening to-- he says: ---No catalyst is necessary. The trick is in the preparation of the nickel.--- This makes the effect all the more theoretically difficult/intractable. But Pinatelly says, he has a theory. But I probably will not believe it. And this is independent of whether his reactor works or not. In the best case Pinatelli proves his own pudding, and not all sorts of puddings out there, so to say. I think Miley got it best up to now, but the classical Coulomb-barrier still holds, even in his theory. So there must be something else, which is more fundamental. ________________________________ Von: Jed Rothwell <[email protected]> An: [email protected] Gesendet: 22:00 Dienstag, 10.April 2012 Betreff: Re: [Vo]:New Lattice Energy presentation Axil Axil <[email protected]> wrote: I am interested in the “life after death” phenomena as an indicator of the possibility of multiple causes of cold fusion. I do not think life after death is significant. I think the causes are prosaic. With bulk material, it is caused by highly loaded Pd samples that gradually degas. With powder, it is the only kind of cold fusion you can have. Some systems show life after death and others do not; Rossi…yes, the Brillouin Energy system…no. The difference is probably the size of the particles and the amount they can absorb. There is no particular advantage to life after death. It is like a dirty ICE engine that keeps running for a moment after you cut the ignition. - Jed
