One of the most amazing LENR systems of them all is the
Cravens golden ball system. It is so energy weak, relatively cool, small
scale, and gentle that it is hard to imagine its energy is derived from
nuclear processes.
Yes, the NI-Week demo is amazing and under-appreciated, but there is no
evidence that Craven’s device is nuclear. There is plenty of evidence that
nanomagnetism is involved. That could be the important detail – along with
the addition of samarium cobalt to instigate superparamagnetism.
Cravens does believe the effect is nuclear, since it was based on the Les
Case reactor, which Case thought was nuclear. According to Cravens:
(http://www.infinite-energy.com/images/pdfs/NIWeekCravens.pdf) the golden
ball contains activated carbon, metal alloy, magnetic powder, hydrogen
storage material and deuterium gas. He admits that there are as many ideas
of the exact reaction as there are theorists.
Even among theorists, T-Symmetry is seldom invoked for LENR – but maybe it
should be in the Cravens experiment. There has been no positive test to
confirm helium – and until that happens, everyone is free to speculate. My
opinion is that there is no fusion BUT at the same time, no CoE violation
since there is symmetry breaking.
Although it is a minority view –there are literally hundreds of papers on
intense magnetic fields and symmetry breaking. Since symmetry breaking can
serve to void conservation of energy concerns, the bottom line is that
nuclear reactions may not be required for energy gain if a magnetic field is
distorting either time or space at the nanoscale –
… so why imagine nuclear fusion when there is no supporting evidence ?
