Axil, That is good stuff.
The lensing along jet streams prior to severe weather as well as the superconducting of a portion of the EMR from radars is exactly the effect I (think) I have been seeing in our atmosphere. We call the phenomena "St. Elmo's Fire" and "Sun Dogs" and "Ice Halos" and "Flying Dutchman" but it is all really strings and particles of vacuum in our atmosphere triggering low pressure disturbances, lensing and electromagnetic effects, etc. I.e. we live in a vacuum (with a little air and water vapor thrown in) On Tue, Feb 18, 2014 at 2:19 AM, Axil Axil <[email protected]> wrote: > http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1108/1108.2203.pdf > > > Vacuum as a hyperbolic metamaterial > Magnetic Fields Turn the Vacuum into a Superconducting Superlens, Says > Physicist... > > It is both interesting and central in LENR to understand what is going on > inside the nuclear active environment (NAE). > > Another piece of the puzzle in the quest for this understanding is the > determination by Dr. G, Miley that the NAE is superconducting.
