Jones, re "At that point the zone could serve as a conduit for zero point penetration in the same or similar way that Puthoff has suggested for the role of ZPE in maintaining order in all atomic structures." VERY WELL SAID!! And not to forget an entire tapestry of different zones because every time the local geometry changes even slightly at these dimensions the DCE is huge segregating hydrogen by regions of different vacuum density - a quantum scale "Puthoff" balance that encompasses entire regions instead of just dictating the ground state of elements in the periodic chart. While the atomic scale is too large to see the wormholes and chaotic foam below the plank scale the quantum effects of nano geometry segregate some of these imbalances up into the macro world and break the isotropy in a segregated manner that can be exploited.

This may additionally involve magnetism, or high temperature superconductivity, or both ... An emergent new meme - insofar as LENR is concerned goes beyond the usual over-simplification is: Higgs field = aether = zpe, roughly speaking. Another verbalization is that the Higgs field represents a local or imposed superconductive state, such that energy will be channeled to condense (nucleate) around a local deficit state (think topological defect) within this geometry. The results is net thermal gain. In fact, it could be that the Higgs field only works within a geometrical constraint and it should be stated that way... perhaps as a hybrid term like "mass-energy per fm3" (fm3 = cf = cubic femtometer). Admittedly this could be a failing attempt to match up the shadows on the wall of Plato's cave, but heck ... the effort is shaping up better than a random-walk thus far: 1 amu = 931.46 MeV/c2 or alternatively 1 GeV = 1.074 amu. Ergo 125+ GeV =~ 134 amu for the equivalent rest mass of Higgs when stated as a nuclear mass. The reported mass energy anomaly identified with the Higgs Field is 125+ GeV, but that does not mean that 134 amu is a usable value, without relevance to a spatial geometry. (or at all) Many of us have been proponents of nickel being the active isotope in Ni-H reactions as seen in a multitude of experimental results, and it may be yet another coincidence that specific nickel isotopes are about one half the atomic mass-energy equivalent of the Higgs (aether) value. Actually 62Ni, which apparently is still Rossi's pick of the litter, is 124 amu when doubled, which is well on the low side of half the Higgs value, even if two protons should also be counted. One area of conjecture would then be that in a situation where hydrogen is absorbed into a nickel matrix (or surface defect), a zone will often develop which is very close to the Higgs value on the low side. At that point the zone could serve as a conduit for zero point penetration in the same or similar way that Puthoff has suggested for the role of ZPE in maintaining order in all atomic structures. Xenon and five other elements have either stable isotopes, or surprising stability around a mass equivalence at 134 amu and that argues for this being the precise mass-energy of a zone of stability. Anyway, if there is a zone of mass stability around an area which corresponds to that which would typically hold two nickel atoms and two protons (two nickel hydride molecules) then perhaps this is getting us closer to the desired Higgs portal. What this post is suggesting is that the zone of stability should framed as one in which precise geometry is important ... and also this side note: Rossi came about his energy anomaly discovery essentially as an outgrowth of work being done on a thermoelectric generator for DoE. That project failed but soon after, Rossi switched gears into LENR. Here is the poser for all of the Rossi sleuths out there. Can you imagine any valid historical cross-connection between LENR, Higgs field (125 GeV) and the TEG which could have led to success in LENR being based on materials being used in TEG research? Hmmm... tellurium is the first thing that comes to mind for me in this TEG context, but it is complicated. More on the telluride connection later. Jones
