the electrons form a vortex and 

the deuterium nuclei are circling this vortex and this allows a very small
orbit, therefore a 

super dense state.[/snip]

 

This seems to support my position of a relativistic interpretation of
suppression /Casimir force and why 

Bourgoin used math normally reserved for the spin state of photons to
describe the hydrino orbits and why there is a controversy over the Bohr
orbit being 700 trillion times a second or stationary. The "motion" doesn't
exist from our perspective because it is on the temporal axis relative to
us. Locally I propose a Neo Lorentzian ether that pushes the electron much
harder than the more condensed nuclei and so the electron is kept trailing
behind the nuclei on the time axis varying by what it perceives as a spatial
displacement from the nucleus based on this flow of a virtual particle
stream which only becomes physical as it intersects our 3d plane- basically
separating electrons from nuclei by what Puthoff describes as "pressure".
The dense hydrogen is stacked in a different equivalent frame similar to
storing terminal patients in a deep gravity well while waiting for medical
science to catch up only the energy density is negative instead of increased
making the time dilation accelerated instead of delayed - I suspect
catalytic action is actually this same accelerated time dilation. Unlike the
slow astronomical gradients of a gravity well to increase energy density the
decreased density caused by suppression geometry is abrupt and provides the
opportunity to have different inertial frames stationary relative to each
other at the nano scale.

I met Dr. Brian O'Leary at a New Age UFO convention held in Nebraska back in
the mid 1990s. Brian was the individual who first piqued my interest in a
concept known as "Zero Point Energy". Never heard of the idea before then.

Brian lectured on a lot of eclectic subjects. ZPE was just one of the topics
he discussed. He showed slides, photographs of individuals with crazy
looking contraptions, all professing to show energy anomalies. Many were
from India, I seem to recall. Remember, this was back I the 90s.

Brian was into aikido. 

We bent spoons!

The biggest thing I took home with me after meeting Brian was the fact that
I really needed to study up on what ZPE, and "energy from the vacuum". I
knew it was important. Eventually, I stumbled into the Vort Collective after
Mike Carrell brought the group to my attention.

Re: [Vo]:Blue plastic tarps deployed to make radiation go away

2011-03-28 Thread Jed Rothwell
A new variation of the blue tarp has emerged! The president of TEPCO was
last seen on television wearing "a blue company uniform instead of his
normal business suit." Apparently this functions as a cloak of invisibility
(kakuremino) because he hasn't been seen since. See:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/vanishing-act-by-japanese-executive-during-nuclear-crisis-raises-questions/2011/03/28/AFDnHNpB_story.html

"Vanishing act by Japanese executive during nuclear crisis raises questions"

QUOTES:

TOKYO — In normal times, Masataka Shimizu lives in The Tower, a luxury high
rise in the same upscale Tokyo district as the U.S. Embassy. But he hasn’t
been there for more than two weeks, according to a uniformed doorman.

The Japanese public hasn’t seen much of him recently either. Shimizu, the
president of Tokyo Electric Power Co., or Tepco, the company that owns a
haywire nuclear power plant just 150 miles from the capital, is the most
invisible — and also most reviled — chief executive in Japan.

Amid rumors that Shimizu had fled the country, checked into hospital or even
committed suicide, company officials said Monday that their boss suffered an
unspecified “small illness” due to overwork after a 9.0-magnitude earthquake
sent a tsunami crashing onto his company’s Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power
station.

After a short break to recuperate, they said, Shimizu, 66, is back at work
directing an emergency command center on the second floor of Tepco’s central
Tokyo headquarters.

Still, company officials are vague about whether they’ve actually seen their
boss: “I’ll have to check on that,” said spokesman Ryo Shimitsu, who is not
related to the president. Another staffer, Hiro Hasegawa, said he’d seen the
president regularly but couldn’t provide details.

Vanishing in times of crisis is something of a tradition among Japan’s
industrial and political elite. . . .

. . . Shimizu’s vanishing act “is not so much extremely strange as
inexcusable,” said Takeo Nishioka, the chairman of the upper house of
Japan’s Diet, or parliament. Speaking to reporters, Nishioka described as
“mysterious” Shimizu’s refusal to join the head of the nuclear safety agency
at a briefing on the crisis for parliament. “I cannot understand this,”
fumed Nishioka. . . .

[Vo]:In memory of Scott Chubb

2011-03-28 Thread Jed Rothwell
I feel I should say a few words about Scott. I did not know him well. But
everyone knew him to some extent because you couldn't miss him. He was
noisy. In your face. Exuberant! At conferences you could hear him from the
hallway, commenting, arguing and laughing. He was always interesting to talk
to. Always bubbling over with ideas, and not just narrowly focused on
physics, but also about music, art, children and much else. He was always
helpful and kind. He would argue like the dickens but he never held a
grudge. He looked for the best in people. He even had nice things to say
about Robert Park. He brought much needed enthusiasm and fun to the field,
and also to "Infinite Energy" as editor.

The reason I hesitate to talk about him, and the reason it is a little
awkward, is that in his private life he had the worst kind of bad luck and
problems galore. He was afflicted like Job. He fought personal demons such
as alcoholism and that horrible disease.

I do not feel it is appropriate to discuss such problems in public. It is an
invasion of privacy when someone is alive. Now that he is dead I think, on
the contrary, telling people how much he suffered honors his memory. The
thing is, he remained upbeat about the science and he made important
contributions right to the end. Look at his last paper, written shortly
before he died, about the Rossi reactor:

http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ChubbSRtherossikw.pdf

There is no hint of his own person distress. No foreshadowing of the despair
he must have felt. Working and contributing right to the last weeks of life
is hard for anyone, but for someone who has been struggling for years, it is
a testament to the true spirit of science and free inquiry.

I do not know enough about theory to judge whether his theoretical
contributions have any merit, or whether they will last. But he made other
important contributions editing, educating and promoting the field. We shall
miss his energy and good cheer.

Scott was devoutly religious, which is a little unusual for a scientist. I
hope his faith made it easier for him to bear his troubles and his last
illness.

RE: [Vo]:Superdense deuterium...

2011-03-28 Thread Jones Beene
Mark - Yes, Holmlid and Miley are associates and what your friend has told
you - is precisely what I have been referring to in past posting as "IRH" or
inverted Rydberg hydrogen. Some call it 'dense clusters'.

 

This mechanism for its formation is an alternative to the hydrino mechanism,
or else it is a further step in a progression.

 

It could be something like:

 

Spillover -> hydrino (f/H) -> IRH

 

I use the term f/H or "fractional hydrogen" for the superset of "below
ground state" hydrogen, and suggest that others do the same, since 

 

1)Mills has trademarked the name 'hydrino', and occasionally his lawyers
try to enforce it, even though he is guilty of seldom using the T symbol.

2)His theory is incorrect in many details

3)Mills may really deserve as little credit as possible, at least from
the LENR contingent - due to his arrogance, negative attitude and refusal to
acknowledge the obvious fact that LENR is the most energetic way to utilize
f/H and that his work is derivative of P&F.

4)However, he does deserve some credit, at a level to be determined by
whether or not he can actually utilize the species without the process going
nuclear. I think not.

Look into Prof. Leif Holmlid from the University of Gothenburg...

He claims that he produced 'superdense' deuterium and when he shoots a green
laser pulse on it (which causes 'Coulomb explosion', meaning the intense
laser light strips all the electrons of the superdense deuterium) he gets
fusion. When he measures the fast deuterium ions coming from the Coulomb
explosion, (he uses a time-of-flight measurement to determine the speed and
from that) he can deduce the internuclear distance from that. I think it is
about 1000 times more dense than regular deuterium.

This also sounds a little like 'hydrinos' but Prof. Winterberg tries to

[Vo]:Blue plastic tarps deployed to make radiation go away

2011-03-28 Thread Jed Rothwell
theSee the CNN story about the plutonium:

http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/03/28/3-types-of-plutonium-detected-at-japans-fukushima-daiichi-plant/

This is illustrated with photo of people carrying a large blue plastic tarp
around the victims of last week's exposure, as they go into the hospital.

The caption is:

"Authorities hold a blue sheet over patients exposed to radiation at the
Fukushima nuclear power plant last week."

The police in Japan love to deploy gigantic sheets of blue plastic tarp to
shield crime scenes from gawkers and reporters. In this photo, TEPCO is
shielding the victims, ostensibly to preserve their privacy I think. Since
the victims are still wearing protective clothing, no one can tell who they
are. So I would say this is a cover-up in the literal and figurative sense.
I have not seen interviews with the rank and file engineering staff at
Fukushima. Since they are risking their lives to protect the nation this is
odd.

Japanese government and industry has a long history of covering things up.
They have frenetically covering this up from day. I just watched an
appalling interview with the IAEA General Director Amano. He happens to be
Japanese, and he is skilled at the excuse, evasion, cover-up,
change-the-subject tap dance routine we have come to expect from officials
there.

If they could, I expect TEPCO and the Japanese government would cover all
six reactors with blue tarps to keep Google from publishing those pesky
photos from space. As I mentioned, NHK often shows blurry videos of the
reactors after the explosion, which are taken from a helicopter ~20 km away
(maybe 30 km?), but as far as I know they have not shown the video of the
actual explosion. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPbmPyMxu0Y)

I think it highly unlikely that TEPCO does not have video taken closer to
the reactor buildings. With 700 people battling the worst nuclear disaster
in their history, in a nation chock full of video equipment, it is hard to
believe they do not have several close range Internet-connected monitors
focused on the buildings 24 hours a day. But they have not released any
video, and only a handful of still photos. They seem to believe they can
hide the largest conventional explosions in the history of nuclear energy.


Another thing I would like to comment on -- okay, grouse about -- is the
widespread notion that there has been no looting in this disaster, and there
wasn't much after the Kobe earthquake. People contrast that to the
widespread looting reported in the U.S. after Katrina. This is mainly
nonsense, in my opinion. There was not all that much looting in New Orleans.
The press exaggerated it. Mainly it was people getting things like groceries
and diapers from stores that were destroyed and could not have sold these
goods. The same thing is happening in Japan. As I mentioned last week and
anyone can see, there is not much left to steal. There is a sharp line
between the devastated areas where the tsunami reached, and the intact areas
beyond that. People are still living in the intact areas. There is looting,
although the press in Japan seems inclined to ignore it as much as our press
exaggerates looting here. Yesterday on NHK the reporters and cameraman
accompanied some police officers at the station and on patrol. The police
chief tells them "watch out for looters." While on patrol the police use a
megaphone to tell the people in the surroundings, "watch out for looters.
Report any strangers or suspicious people to 911." (Actually the number is
110 in Japan).

Finally -- and this is the key thing -- there will be an orgy of looting
starting in a few months when the government lets contracts for
reconstruction and rebuilding. Japan's large construction companies have
raped, pillaged and looted the nation for 60 years leaving the landscape and
the ecology in a shambles. The government will give contracts to
well-connected companies who will then give kickbacks to corrupt
politicians, corrupt retired officials in shell companies, and gangsters. In
the U.S. we have not seen this kind of massive, in-your-face corruption
since the construction of transcontinental railway in the 1860s, when the
railroad companies handed out at least $20 million in bribes to members of
Congress alone (more than $200 million today). The exact amounts of bribes
and other financial shenanigans were covered up in a method that I think
Japanese politicians would envy. It is better than blue tarp or having your
mother give you tens of millions of dollars under the table, as ex-P.M.
Hatoyama did. After the project was finished, Leland Stanford and the other
railroad owners took their accounting books outside to an open area, built a
large bonfire, and burned them.

You might say there is no looting because the government, the construction
companies and gangsters have already stolen everything not nailed down.

I think in any society there is bound to be a certain level of dysfunctional
behavior, be a crime, corruptio

superdense deuterium) he gets fusion. When he measures the fast deuterium ions 
coming from the
Coulomb explosion, (he uses a time-of-flight measurement to determine the speed 
and from that) he
can deduce the internuclear distance from that. I think it is about 1000 times 
more dense than
regular deuterium.

This also sounds a little like 'hydrinos' but Prof. Winterberg tries to explain 
this through a
Bose-Einstein condensation. The nucleus of the deuterium is already a Bose 
particle (spin 0 or 1
here) and the electrons (Fermi particles) have 1/2 spin but if they could 
couple, similar to a
superconductor, then a whole bunch of deuterium could form a Bose-Einstein 
condensate and it follows
a different statistic. Winterberg suggests that the electrons form a vortex and 
the deuterium nuclei
are circling this vortex and this allows a very small orbit, therefore a 
superdense state.

I think CNN reported why there is nothing to worry about (and we should keep
walking):

"Plutonium can be a serious health hazard if inhaled or ingested, but
external exposure poses little health risk, according to the U.S.

So, it is only a problem for people who breathe or eat.

>From wikipedia:

Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station (TMI) is a civilian
nuclear power plant located on Three Mile Island in the Susquehanna
River, south of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It has two separate units,
known as TMI-1 and TMI-2. The plant is widely known for having been
the site of the most significant accident in United States commercial
nuclear energy, on March 28, 1979, when TMI-2 suffered a partial
meltdown. According to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the
accident resulted in no deaths or injuries to plant workers or members
of nearby communities. The reactor core of TMI-2 has since been
removed from the site, but the site has not been decommissioned.



On January 22, 2010 officials at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
announced the electrical generator from the damaged Unit 2 reactor at
TMI will be used at Shearon Harris Nuclear Plant in New Hill, North
Carolina. Preliminary work is under way to move the generator. It will
be transported in two parts, weighing a combined 670 tons. TMI's Unit
2 reactor has been shut down since the partial meltdown in 1979.

RE: [Vo]:Papp engine

2011-03-28 Thread Jones Beene
From: Fran Roarty 

“The Mystery and Legacy of Joseph Papp's Noble Gas Engine”  by Eugene F. Mallove

http://www.infinite-energy.com/iemagazine/issue51/papp.html 
is a similar ZPE reaction to the one I am proposing. 

Since you mention this, Fran, let me add another thought - in which the role of 
xenon oxide should be mentioned along with the Casimir repulsive force. Gene’s 
fine article was a classic, yet it did not revive interest in this engine among 
top level researchers - other than the four different groups of people who had 
been associated with Papp, and who had seen the engine working. Millions were 
spent by them but with no reliable proof that the effect has been replicated. 
No theoretician seems to have been able to find any conceivable way that it 
could have worked.

All of the experts were probably hindered by one primary expectation. Since it 
was based on a converted piston engine, it had to be a heat engine. Probably 
wrong! If today’s speculation is correct, then Papp’s crazy design is not and 
never was a heat-engine, and in fact he may have inadvertently found that ZPE 
can operate best as a heat sink. 

Admittedly several other explanations for Papp have seemed partly accurate in 
past analyses, but they assume that hydrogen was present, and there is no 
indication of that. Oxygen would be easier to imagine as a contaminant, if it 
were not intentionally added. It is possible that today’s proposed mechanism 
can operate best when physical nano-cavities are present, but a gas plasma is 
also functional - since so called “Casimir cooling” occurs in a medium via a 
Casimir repulsive force, operating on curved surfaces where an inert molecule 
like xenon might qualify as the active sphere for the cooling effect. 

We know for sure that xenon was one of Papp’s active gases, and that xenon is 
known to have both chemical and nuclear metastability. I am assuming, as 
Mallove did (and as the record shows), that Papp’s engine was demonstrated 
successfully on several occasions. I think we can even identify the molecule 
that caused the Feynman-instigated explosion at the infamous demo – the one 
that cost Caltech a handsome sum and cost one bystander his life… did we need 
to add a little extra drama to this story?

Specifically, xenon tetroxide is a chemical compound of xenon and oxygen: XeO4. 
It is remarkable for being a stable compound below −36 °C; but above that 
temperature it becomes violently explosive. This combination of properties is 
what you want for use as a ZPE or ZPED “cold pump” since you can possibly get 
anomalous shock waves by capitalizing on the “cold side”, and at low effective 
temperature (due to Boyles law). You can call it “reusable TNT” but it is 
another version of the “entropic explosion” (shock wave without heat) which has 
been referred to here before. It would be an ideal way to “pump” ZPE.

http://www.mail-archive.com/vortex-l@eskimo.com/msg15977.html

How to cycle between temperature extremes then becomes the overriding issue 
with a piston engine. Fortunately every piston engine is also a vacuum pump in 
disguise. You may need extra cooling of the cylinder head to keep it at ambient 
or below and the engine will run cold naturally. There is a partial vacuum fill 
of gases, and a high compression ratio to invoked the heat-pump effect and then 
Joule-Thomson takes care of the rest. At bottom dead center of the stroke you 
have a cold plasma from a shock wave which has dissipated without a heat 
signature.

The electron configuration of xenon in its metastable chemical state consists 
of tightly bound core electrons with a missing electron in the 5P shell, and a 
loosely bound valence electron in the 6S shell. Thus it will lase under proper 
conditions. It is tempting to attempt to connect orbital photon pumping 
(lasing) with ZPE pumping – and in a few elements this could happen, but I can 
find no authoritative source for that proposition.

Additionally it can be noted that the “xenon excimer laser” typically uses a 
combination of a noble gases with a reactive oxidant like fluorine. Under the 
appropriate conditions, a “pseudo-molecule” called an “excimer” is created, 
which can only exist in an energized state and produces coherent light in the 
ultraviolet range on collapse. Normally this is conservative and lossy but this 
is only a metaphor for an inverse process. In the Papp engine, even if xenon 
does not oxidize all the way to the tetroxide, it could easily form an excimer 
when rapidly cooled from a previous shock wave.

The employment of oxygen instead of fluorine can make something happen under 
extremely cold transitory conditions, as with Joule-Thomson expansion 
(throttling) in a cold plasma. A design which provides mechanical torque can 
depend on a shock wave in the absence of temperature differential, due to this 
little known property (little known, unless you design automotive air-bags or 
read vortex). This mechanism is known as the “e

Perhaps the doctors got the asberger's diagnosis backwards!

A 12-year-old child prodigy has astounded university professors after
grappling with some of the most advanced concepts in mathematics.

Jacob Barnett has an IQ of 170 - higher than Albert Einstein - and is
now so far advanced in his Indiana university studies that professors
are lining him up for a PHD research role.

The boy wonder, who taught himself calculus, algebra, geometry and
trigonometry in a week, is now tutoring fellow college classmates
after hours.

His mother, not sure if her child was talking nonsense or genius, sent
a video of his theory to the renowned Institute for Advanced Study
near Princeton University.

According to the Indiana Star, Institute astrophysics professor Scott
Tremaine  -himself a world renowned expert - confirmed the
authenticity of Jake's theory.
