[Vo]: doubly negatively charged nano droplet...
This interesting tidbit from PhysOrg.com... Anything interesting about the numbers 83 and 105? Scientists have discovered fundamental steps of charging of nano-sized water droplets and unveiled the long-sought-after mechanism of hydrogen emission from irradiated water. Working together at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Tel Aviv University, scientists have discovered when the number of water molecules in a cluster exceeds 83, two excess electrons may attach to it - forming dielectrons - making it a doubly negatively charged nano droplet. Furthermore, the scientists found experimental and theoretical evidence that in droplets comprised of 105 molecules or more, the excess dielectrons participate in a water-splitting process resulting in the liberation of molecular hydrogen and formation of two solvated hydroxide anions. The results appear in the June 30 issue of the Journal of Physical Chemistry A. -Mark

That was 10 years ago. Now, investors are betting more than $30 million on that jackhammer idea, which may yield a holy grail of energy -- a safe, clean and unlimited power source called hot fusion.

Re: [Vo]:New Thermal Conversion Material
Jones, Terry, In regards to: > It's enough to make you believe in witch doctors! Heh... I wuz think'in the same thing. ;-) Just to be clear on this for the millionth time. I'm not endorsing the WD files. The transcripts what they are, warts and all. It remains to be seen if the information proves to be useful, or not. Personally, I'd like to go against what seems to be the WD's prediction that Rossi needs at least another year of "futzing" round to do before his e-cats area ready for prime time. What I'm personally hoping for is that Rossi & Defkalion will still be able to unveil real commercial products by this October. Granted, it's likely they may still be clueless as to why they work the way they do. Therefore, it's likely the first roll-out of products may not be terribly powerful or impressive, but perhaps they will work as-advertised. SAFETY WILL BE THE PRIMARY GOAL TO ACHIEVE. That's my hope. Perhaps within a year or so Defkalion will begin to finally acquire a preliminary understanding of the particle physics involved. The transcripts imply the Rossi Effect involves some interesting subatomic particle generation involving the outer electron shells of atoms belonging to certain alloys rapidly changing state from solid, to liquid, and gas and vice versa. If Defkalion can get a better theoretical handle on the physics involved it seems sensible for me to assume it will soon open up the doors to greater energy production on the order of several magnitudes. Could also blow up the planet if we are careless. Brave new world. OTOH, perhaps the transcripts are nothing more than just a good Ski-fi story! Maybe we should hope they are. It's all Greek to me. ;-) Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks

"The alloy Ni45Co5Mn40Sn10 achieves multiferroism by undergoing a highly reversible phase transformation where one solid turns into another solid. During this phase transformation the alloy undergoes changes in its magnetic properties that are exploited in the energy conversion device." Did he say "phase transformation"?
