I had the opportunity to participate in some mass spectroscopy experiments while at Uni. The method was based on having a whisker of the material you want to test, at a high voltage potential. The point of the whisker was only atoms wide. You pulse the high voltage, and this leads to the outmost atoms being boiled off and pulled towards a screen where you could actually see in image corresponding to the atomic structure of the tip. I can't remember how the masses were determined, but being ionized I suppose the atoms were accelerated through a magnetic field, with the resulting bend radius corresponding to mass.
Or thereabouts *lol* Btw, Bockris sent lots of samples off to measure mass distribution after transmutation. .s Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2013 15:05:29 -0500 Subject: Re: [Vo]:Asked & Answered From: [email protected] To: [email protected] If people could measure transmutations, believe me, they would.

Build a spectroscope using trash. http://sci-toys.com/scitoys/scitoys/light/cd_spectroscope/spectroscope.html Buy some ultrapure carbon electrodes. http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-graphite-probes-carbon-electrodes-atomic-absorption-spectrometry-AA-/230944043453?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35c55671bd This listing is for 4 new graphite probes/ carbon electrodes. They measure 4 inches (10 cm) long and .25 inches (0.6 cm) wide. This lot has been tested for presence of metals with the following results (in ppm) Silicon: 1 Aluminum: 0 Iron: 0 Magnesium: 0 Calcium: 0 Boron: 0 others: 0 If not satisfied for ANY reason, send it back within 60 days for a refund. Check out my other listings since I combine shipping. Thank you for your interest. Any pure element will due as an electrode material: tungsten, iron, etc. Make some ultrapure water and put it in a bottle. Pass current through the ultrapure electrodes as it sparks in the ultrapure water. Take a picture of the spectrum of the light from the arc emitted from the electrodes.Take subsequent pictures of the arc light at regular intervals until new spectral lines from transmuted elements appear. What we are looking for is a CHANGE in the spectral lines not absolute values. QED WHEN CHANGE IS FOUND, transmutation proved along with LENR.

Good grief, we already know measuring heat is difficult.. It is a lot easier than measuring isotopic shifts in picogram samples of material mixed in with grams of contamination. Bear in mind that radioactivity was first discovered by the heat it produces. What I find a disturbing though, is that despite having pretty good accounts of the constituent nuclei, nobody can figure out what the reactions are! Experts tell me they cannot figure this out because they do not have access to the instruments they need. These instruments costs a great deal of money. Barrels of money. Cold fusion research is done on a shoestring by superannuated professors. They are shut out of most universities and other labs. If people could measure transmutations, believe me, they would.
