Jones etal--
I recently heard about a researcher at a Government Lab (PNNL) that had
funding cut off when she discovered Tritium in a sono-luminescent
experiment. The lack of such curiosity in Govt Labs. and follow-up is, I
suspect, wide spread. However another person at PNNL who I have had
contact with over the years, and who was what you might say, a skeptopath,
spouting the no, not possible, rhetoric of the last 25 years, has recently
be come silent as to the information I send out. This person may be coming
around to the reality of LENR, although in a non vocal manner. However, his
person may have thought it (LENR) was real all along and was afraid to say
so.
This whole experience indicates to me the problems with big money research
with a non-scientific agenda as its guiding principle.
I recently stopped giving money to my al mamater because I found out about
the University President's involvement with the MIT cover-up of the I-I
work.

Subject: RE: [Vo]:Evidence of SR Length Contraction
When a large part of any argument is semantics - it usually requires only
one definitive and rock-solid example to prove a contention... unless
there
is a valid alternative explanation.
From: David Roberson
In the free electron laser ... the wavelength should be
approximately equal to the spacing between alternate magnets unless that
distance is effectively shortened by the Lorentz contraction as seen by
the
electrons in motion. The shortening factor directly enters into the
determination of the radiation frequency. A radio wavelength structure
of
magnets is employed to achieve an x-ray length emission due to Lorentz
contraction.
... is there an alternative explanation - other than LC?
If not, and if there is no valid alternative to Lorentz contraction then
we
must face the unavoidable conclusion. It is as simple as that. This could
be
a rare case of "either/or" where only one outcome is possible based on a
physical phenomenon.
In LENR this is why the appearance of tritium is so important for ultimate
proof of the phenomenon. Tritium is rock-solid proof of one type of LENR.
Unlike helium, which is rare but ubiquitous in air, tritium is completely
unexpected, and moreover: unambiguous to measure. There is no good
alternative explanation other than a low energy nuclear reaction.
When tritium is seen, at least one type of LENR is proved. Period. When
that
one type is proved, other types are easier to justify based on a solid
foundation. Since tritium has been seen for over twenty years in
experiment,
critics and skeptics have been wrong for that long, but they still
continue
to whine and interfere with progress.
The reason that this is brought up in cross-connection to the x-ray laser
is
that Roarty has assembled a decent argument which implies free electron
motion in nanocavities which implies Lorentz contraction and x-rays. This
is
based on the Casimir force and can be called DCE, or the dynamic Casimir
effect. This relates not to another kind of LENR per se, but to an energy
amplification mechanism which can be harnessed by LENR of any of the major
types.
For the record, some of the most intense radiation which has been
documented
by Randell Mills is in the 10 nm soft x-ray spectrum. He has an
alternative
explanation, but this exact spectrum is seen in the free-electron x-ray
laser. Now we have a good explanation for this radiation showing up in the
LENR experiments via LC - which does not require Mills' theory.
Given Mills has been incapable of building a working device for public
demonstration after 24 years and $100 million, and has reverted to
modifying
a crude seam welder to amaze his fans and devotees - LOL - and given that
the free-electron x-ray laser has been in operation for some time - this
is
not looking promising like a promising future for Mills and BLP.
I'm just glad BLP did not go with an IPO many years ago, since I would
have
invested back then and it would likely be belly up by now.
