2011-05-16 Thread Peter Gluck
about the ideas of this thread:

An analogy: Why lowly apples have obtained such wonderful results in
genetic engineering, while oranges despite of billions of $ of funding had
not achieved a single usable result?

The answer a bit tautologic is - because apples are apples and oranges are
oranges. Some things in common but huge differences.

I think it is outrigth logical fallacy to compare Mills' hyperchemistry to
Rossi's nuclear jiu-jitsu. Mills has told me that his process has nothing to
do with Rossi's and he is not interested in what Ross has done. If somebody
knows more about Mills's theory and results than Mills himself- the best is
to discuss wit the authors (that's the function of literary critics too to
explain to everybody, including the author what has he wanted to say in his
opus)

On  the other hand nor Piantelli (who knows what happens)
nor Rossi - who made it to happen at an industrial level)
are not interested in Randy's ideas not relevant for them.

There are two other more general problems here:

a) the relationship between theory and practice; e.g. Pd-D LENR  has
wonderfully bright theories- bold mental constructs- but does not achieve
practical intensity, reproducibility, continuity...

b) the way from a scientific principle to a practical technological
application is sometimes very difficult, full of obstacles and long. The
mission of the Engineer (I am a chemical one) is to work out those practical
steps that make
science to work- science is Know What, technology is Know
How, Know Who.
Know Why is usually science based but the more important
Know- Why- Not has lots of empirical elements too -see please the case of Pd
based cold fusion- my poisoning
effect was rejected with hostility, contempt and certainty that it cannot be
relevant- and it seems that deep degassing
is a sine qua non condition for Ni-H (see the patent WO 2010/58288)
I have used my practical experience in development of industrial processes
to establish a set of problem solving rules:
http://egooutpeters.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-rules-of-problem-solving.html

http://egooutpeters.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-rules-of-problem-solving.htmlFor
this case Rules 2, 4, 5, and 6 are especially relevant- please see that
Mills' real problems are not connected directly to his theory. He has to
develop a continuous process with rather irreversible reactions. Lot's of
disturbing secondary phenomena.

Rossi has a high intensity process- he has to work a lot at
controllabilty (ideal is zero input!), safety (I smell risks nd danger more
than he says!) , scale-up (modular scaleup is NOT good engineering, we need
lions and tigers not kittens!), has to produce electric energy- but the
learning process has started...let's hope the best.


I consider that the two technologies have specific problems
cannot be compared directly and..scientific soundness i only a necessary (?)
not a sufficient condition for  a technology.

 I think the distinction involves the fermion-boson nature of the negative
 hydrogen ion between deuterium and protium.



 Because protium can form a clustered negative hydrogen ion as a fermion,
 the ion can mimic the behavior of the electron.



 Since deuterium can only form a negative hydrogen ion with integer spin, it
 is denied the same mechanism that allows fusion of large volumes of protium
 atoms. It is the size of these ion clusters that make the “Rossi” reaction
 so powerful and productive.



 And palladium cannot produce clustered negative hydrogen ions so the
 reaction is very weak.





 The Bose-Einstein condensate is the most probable mechanism for deuterium
 cold fusion.



 But the hydride compression mechanism is the most likely common cold fusion
 factor between the two isotopes in a transition metal.





 The detection of helium in the Arata experiment shows that fusion of
 deuterium is happening.

 There is a common thread here.



 For example in the experiment of Arata, platinum provides the spill

 Fisrt the long  incubation period first provides atomic holes in the
 transition metal lattice through the action of hydrogen erosion. Next, 
 H- is
 loaded into these holes in the transition metal under the spill over

 Finally, a shock starts the nuclear reorganization.  A chain reaction

 Peter,

 Sunday's Sermon

 Following up on Mr. Beene's comment, I have often subscribed to a belief
 that the development of the Internet may very well be ushering in the first
 stages of a new sentient species that may soon dominate our planet within a
 mere couple of thousand years, a species known as Homo Sapiens Goup-Mindus.

 When we think of experiencing or engaging in group mind activity Star
 Trek's terrifying BORG civilization often comes to mind. Group mind
 existence is often described as a horrifying condition particularly because
 TV storylines, such as the BORG, are conveniently written in such a manner
 that such a state-of-existence is constantly being forced upon us.

 I suspect our species worked very hard over many millions of years to
 evolve
 a state of consciousness that explores concepts such as separateness, of
 individuality, and an acute awareness of our seeming temporal permanence as
 perceived out in the external environment. We're not about to give up such
 interesting perceptions, not without thinking long and hard about the
 ramifications. Helping us sort out the ramifications a are few luddites
 sprinkled here and there in every society, and that's probably a good
 thing.

 Meanwhile, there are those who occasionally voice their suspicions (or
 belief) that assuming we are separate temporal souls is a somewhat
 contrived
 concept. Sometimes we listen to their views and actually ponder the
 ramifications. Typically however, we simply file such odd views away in our
 sub consciousness. It would seem that most prefer to hurry back to playing
 the separateness game. At other times we get annoyed with such
 philosophical
 perceptions and end up crucifying the perpetrators of such blasphemy.

 As for me, I've come to the personal conclusion that experiencing
 consciousness in the form of existential separateness is both intriguing
 and
 terrifying.

 It's certainly an interesting game to play, perhaps over and over.

 If so, make sure you have plenty of quarters. ;-)

 It was Piantelli who first talked about pulsating hydrogen pressure. It

Are you certain Piantelli was first for gas phase ? 

The more general topic of 'pulsation' in LENR goes back many years to
sonoluminescence (sonofusion). Perhaps before that. Of course, that was in
the liquid state. Then, there is definite audible levels in glow discharge
experiments. Much higher frequencies can be involved, but that is plasma
phase.

I think it is important to determine the first instance of pulsation in gas
phase. It is probably not patentable due to prior art. Hagelstein, among
others, apparently has claimed that the pulsation is critical to success in
the Rossi device, and perhaps sine qua non. He is well positioned to know
this.

BTW - this does not in any way mean that the inventor himself is aware of it
- if the pulsation frequency is so high that it is far beyond audible, even
with lower harmonics.

As to how ... pulsation can happen in a way that the inventor is unaware
or only mildly aware, and assuming that we are not bound to strict
definitions of sound - then the most likely mechanism is via phonons at
nano-geometry, i.e. IR (infrared) anomalous vibration excursion levels due
to nanopowder properties, or excitons. 

This may be a new instance of excitons in a thermal application.

This too goes back a long way in itself. Often the descriptor which is used
is 'anharmonic vibration'. The effective pressure is much higher than what
is seen in sonoluminescence.

overall effect will still be attraction.
An attractive inverse square law plus another (smaller) repulsive
inverse square law, will still be an attractive inverse square law.

 ...but the tail blows away from the Sun, implying that it is carrying the
 charge. As it blows away it should leave the rest of the comet neutral
 (the
 comets charge should be on it's surface). Especially as it gets really
 close to
 the Sun where the surface is heated enough to evaporate easily.
 IOW the charge should all boil off, on the first pass, leaving none for
 subsequent passes.

Not if the comet charges itself again in its next excursion to the cold
and distant reaches of the solar system.


 I wonder if you get solar flares with every cometary impact, or only with
 some of them?

I wonder the same. And what about asteroids (so called sungrazers) impacts?

This is a very interesting subject. Look at this movie, by example:
http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/pickoftheweek/CME_May11_zoom.mpg

Taken from http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/pickoftheweek/
By the way, according to what is said there the academics seem to be
changing their discourse. They morphed it from no connection to unknown
connection.
This is logical: scientists only want to talk about what they know. They
also don't like to be seen saying silly, too speculative, or outright
erroneous things.

Take into account also that in the previous page it's said:
In fact, analysis of this CME using images from the Solar Dynamics
Observatory shows that the CME erupted before the comet came close enough
to the solar surface to interact with strong magnetic fields.

This seems to rule out Horace's kinetic energy explanation. And by the
way, also an electric/electromagnetic explanation?
Not so fast, William. Here's a possible mechanism for cometary caused CMEs:

- The solar surface is in a state of very unstable equilibrium.
- CMEs are the rupture of that equilibrium for some area of the surface.
Sunspots are the opposite to CMEs, by the way, a rupure of the equilibrium
but in the opposite direction.
- When the comet is close, its *gravitational* field attracts parts of the
solar surface, which separates from the rest. When these parts are
elevated in relation to the surface, they enter the zone of the solar
corona where the solar wind is formed, and they are quickly absorbed and
dispersed by the coronal process, and ejected then as part of the solar
wind.

The high temperatures of the solar corona are a mystery too, and they can
probably be explained taking into account phenomena of electrical nature.
The sun is at the same time a gravitational sink, and an electromagnetic
emitter embedded in an electric field. The solar surface represents the
zone of equilibrium between those two modes. Any small disturbance caused
a restoring of equilibrium, in the form of a CME if the equilibrium is
disturbed preponderantly outwards, or in the form of a sunspot, if it's
disturbed preponderantely inwards.

There you have it. The power of group mind?

 (BTW I don't think I should have entered into this discussion at all.)

  It was Piantelli who first talked about pulsating hydrogen pressure. It

 Are you certain Piantelli was first for gas phase ?

 The more general topic of 'pulsation' in LENR goes back many years to
 sonoluminescence (sonofusion). Perhaps before that. Of course, that was in
 the liquid state. Then, there is definite audible levels in glow discharge
 experiments. Much higher frequencies can be involved, but that is plasma
 phase.

 I think it is important to determine the first instance of pulsation in gas
 phase. It is probably not patentable due to prior art. Hagelstein, among
 others, apparently has claimed that the pulsation is critical to success in
 the Rossi device, and perhaps sine qua non. He is well positioned to know
 this.

 BTW - this does not in any way mean that the inventor himself is aware of
 it
 - if the pulsation frequency is so high that it is far beyond audible, even
 with lower harmonics.

 As to how ... pulsation can happen in a way that the inventor is unaware
 or only mildly aware, and assuming that we are not bound to strict
 definitions of sound - then the most likely mechanism is via phonons at
 nano-geometry, i.e. IR (infrared) anomalous vibration excursion levels due
 to nanopowder properties, or excitons.

 This may be a new instance of excitons in a thermal application.

 This too goes back a long way in itself. Often the descriptor which is used
 is 'anharmonic vibration'. The effective pressure is much higher than what
 is seen in sonoluminescence.

If you are asking seriously, the answer is yes, of course greed is good. 
You can't have capitalism without it, and without capitalism wealth 
would hardly exist.


Greed is good when it is harnessed and controlled by ethics, laws, and 
conscience. Greed as manifested by responsible people is good for 
society. Greed as manifested by the Mafia is bad. The foolish greed on 
Wall Street that led to Enron, and the investment shenanigans and 
bankrupted AIG and other major institutions in 2008, and the TARP 
bailout, is bad. Sometimes it is difficult for an outsider to know 
whether greed is doing a good job or a bad job. Overall it is good.


Condemning greed because it sometimes gets out of hand, or it is 
sometimes unrestrained by morality, is like condemning sexuality because 
it sometimes leads to rape.

Miniscule displacement yes, BUT at Casimir geometries those miniscule 
displacements effect force at 1/a^4 -so where change in  plate separation is 
concerned miniscule displacement can result in huge changes in Casimir force. 
This could put so much stress on a covalent bond that it disassociates at a 
discounted lower temperature - where these changes in energy density might 
slowly repel a molecule these sudden changes may boost the molecules over the 
disassociation threshold before the molecule has a chance to give back the 
discount by repelling away from the opposition.

[Vo]:Applet for anharmonic vibration

2011-05-16 Thread Jones Beene
http://people.uncw.edu/moyerc/QMTools/live_documents/prob_11.16.htm

This is only half the story (or less) for anomalous energy from hydrogen.

Some time ago, a paper turned up on a particular alloy for spillover
catalysis (Romanowski) in which a catalyst was identified in a simulation
which can supply over 3 eV of the ~4.5 eV necessary to split the hydrogen
bond of the molecule. Anharmonic vibration can supply the rest. As we speak,
this catalyst is being tested.

BTW this ~3 eV is far more than nickel or palladium can supply as a
spillover catalyst, either of which are at the level of a fractional eV.

OK, despite appearances of instant OU - this can be only a transitory
phenomena in itself, since CoE quickly comes into play and catalysis is
never gainful alone ... unless there is some kind of an asymmetry, coupled
with a way to supply energy input from outside the thermal system. 

Well - QM 'time-shifting' can cover some of the necessary energy depletion
of asymmetric chemistry - in the sense of: borrowed in advance as it were.

The rest must come from something like the zero point field - if the M.O. of
anomalous heat gain is to be asymmetric chemistry instead of nuclear. 

IOW There must be an energy flow into the system, and if it is not nuclear,
then it must related to only a few possibilities, like dark energy, etc - of
which ZPE is the most likely to be the source. ZPE is being used in its
broadest sweep to cover the Dirac sea of negative energy. The suspected
quanta of energy being brought in is 6.8 eV, which is the ionization
potential of positronium and is also a whole fraction of the Hartree energy.

IMHO - this explanation best fits the totality of the evidence so far,
instead of nuclear transmutation, or the fractional ground state (hydrino) .

The original comment was not made clear enough, it seems - and it was not 
intended as criticism for Rossi. Greed is a perfectly acceptable motivation for 
an inventor. No problem there.

However, the situation is far different when you are from top management of the 
Department of Energy, and have used taxpayer money and inside political 
connections for gain. This can happen in bid-free contracts and in many other 
ways involving lack of full disclosure.

'Greed' only works well for society, as a motivator, when there is a level 
playing field.

In the case of inside connections, just as in the recent conviction of 
Rajaratnam for Wall Street cheating - greed tends to merge far closer to fraud 
than when it is motivation for a poor inventor in the private sector. I hope 
they throw the book at him and the other pigs responsible for the recent

 Corrupt or not, I do know a few things about these people, and one is that
 they are not stupid. They are not gullible. I have heard they did test the
 machines carefully. More extensively than Levi or EK, needless to say. I
 have also heard they paid Rossi a lot of money. I do not know how much, and
 it is none of my business, but it is millions of dollars. He deserves every
 penny.

 So, if you are looking for more of what might be called legalistic, or
 circumstantial non-experimental proof that Rossi is no scammer, this is
 it. I myself prefer quantitative experimental evidence.

 You can be sure that people like this do not hand over millions of dollars
 without careful testing. Rossi's claims are not nebulous. They are not
 theory-based like Mills'. He says he inputs ~100 W and output ~10,000 W
 continuing for weeks. That isn't hard to verify. You can be darn sure these
 people did verify it.

I predict he will say nothing.

I also predict there will be no mainstream mass media coverage. At this 
point, I do not think it matters. These events have become, in the 
jargon of cold fusion, a self-sustaining reaction. We don't need the 
mass media anymore.

When this deal was signed, to the best of my knowledge there was no
intellectual property protection to protect the investments of the systems
integrator. Is anyone at risk here in any way?

I do not think so. Again borrowing cold fusion jargon, the Coulomb 
barrier of disbelief is too high. Most people, and most mainstream 
reporters simply cannot believe it is true. It sounds too much like one 
of these energy scams or perpetual motion machine claims. They will say 
it is too good to be true. and extraordinary claims call for blah, 
blah blah.


Fortunately, it no longer matters what they say. It no longer matters 
whether this is covered in the mass media or not. Frankly, mass media 
reports are usually so distorted, it is just as well they don't cover it.


As I have often said, I do not think there is a conspiracy against cold 
fusion. Not in academia, and not in the mass media either. If there is a 
conspiracy they don't invite me to their meetings. Obviously, someone 
pulled strings to cancel the recent ACS proceedings, so there is 
surreptitious opposition. There are dirty tricks and stuff like that. 
But it isn't from a conspiracy, or powerful vested interests. Our 
problem is on display in Wikipedia: ignorance, irrational opposition, 
stupidity. The truth is drowned out by braying crowds of mindless 
anti-intellectual fools. That sort of thing has happened many times 
throughout history, and it is likely to happen in the future. It is our 
primate nature. People are marvelous creatures in many ways, noble in 
reasoning, infinite in faculty. But we are not evolved to be rational or 
to live in a world governed by ideas and facts, rather than direct 
exposure to natural forces. Most people are barely capable of living the 
way we do. Most people can no more think objectively than I can play the 
violin. We do our best. You have to cut us some slack.


Things often end badly with wars or poverty or wonderful inventions 
lost. But sometimes things end well. Given all that we have accomplished 
despite our limitations, it is foolish to predict gloom and defeat. That 
is as foolish as Panglossian optimism. There is always hope. As Obama 
says, while we breathe, we hope.

I expect the investors took this into account. I suppose that in their 
judgment, robust intellectual property protection is likely to come.


A business agreement is a private contract. It is not subject to the 
kinds of laws that are supposed to protect investors in public markets, 
or consumers buying goods in the store. Anyone can agree to pay anyone 
else any sum of money the parties agree to, no matter how high the risks 
may be.




Is anyone at risk here in any way?



There is more risk than you can imagine. On the other hand, the 
potential payoff is one of the largest in the history of business.

Hi,
[snip]
I think it is outrigth logical fallacy to compare Mills' hyperchemistry to
Rossi's nuclear jiu-jitsu. Mills has told me that his process has nothing to
do with Rossi's and he is not interested in what Ross has done. If somebody
knows more about Mills's theory and results than Mills himself- the best is
to discuss wit the authors (that's the function of literary critics too to
explain to everybody, including the author what has he wanted to say in his
opus)

On  the other hand nor Piantelli (who knows what happens)
nor Rossi - who made it to happen at an industrial level)
are not interested in Randy's ideas not relevant for them.
[snip]

Of course Mills thinks it's irrelevant, he believes what Rossi says when he
claims that it's nuclear, and Mills doesn't think that Hydrinos are involved in
nuclear processes. Rossi OTOH probably suspects it may be Mills related, but
dare not go down that road because he might be infringing Mills patent(s), so
for both parties it is in their interest that the two not be related.

However nature doesn't give a hoot who's interest it's in. It works (or not) the
way it works.

I doubt that much of the 0.11g of hydrogen was 'consumed' -- that's 
the amount that gets into the reactor chamber.  Only a very small 
amount would be anywhere near the nickel (assuming it's on the wall 
:  approx area of wall * diameter of a nickel particle /  volume of 
reactor) , only part of that would get into the lattice (or 
whatever), and only part of THAT would react.

Rossi has clearly lost that bet.



There is NO SUCH THING as stable copper-62 !!

Obviously another typo.


Indeed -- if you add a proton to nickel-62, don't you get copper-63 
(which is stable)?


Or did I miss something vital here?
