However the triple track created by the C12 breakup is strongly indicative of fast neutrons. Yes, the triple track is distinctive. However, if you have lots of small tracks, as protons will produce, in a place where no charged particle radiation would penetrate, you can be quite sure you are looking at neutron-caused proton knock-on. In the experiment we ran, we had the following arrangement: c = cathode wire, originally 250 micron diameter, plus plating, against the cell wall. h = acrylic cell wall, 1/16". (about 1600 microns) p = polyester LR-115 base material, 100 microns d = detector layer, cellulose nitrate, 6 microns d p p d d p cover piece of acrylic plastic holding down the films that's four layers of LR-115, as two pairs, emulsion-to-emulsion We would expect to find, aside from neutron-produced tracks, only background radiation from previous storage, plus radiation during the experiment. Charged particle radiation from the cathode would not penetrate the cell wall, nor the base layer. Ambient radiation would mostly fail to reach the detector material. (Particles carrying radon or other radioisotope could be trapped between the film laters, but a single alpha from them would only penetrate one detector layer. The hope was to look for coincident tracks on adjacent layers as clearly indicating tracks generated during the experiment, and only from two sources: the cathode, or cosmic radiation from outside the experiment.) The detectors, etched, from our run, are remarkably free of clear tracks, all the way through the detector layer, while control chips exposed to Am-241 show brilliant, clear tracks. (I expected to see much more background radiation; these detectors were stored in my refrigerator for more than a year before they were used.) I am thinking of doing a wet experiment, i.e., with the LR-115 immersed in the electrolyte, with various orientations. I don't know if LR-115 can handle the wet environment, but, hey, it still takes hot lye to develop it, might be worth trying.

Triple tracks are not common, though. If you are not familiar with it, you should read the SPAWAR publications, including the Pamela Mosier-Boss report on "triple tracks" and her followup report. There are some beautiful images of triple-tracks, she creates them by combining images from two different focus depths, using a different color for each focus. She concludes, ultimately, that the neutrons are at about 14 MeV. It should be understood that she is talking about a very low neutron flux; these tracks have been accumulated for weeks. Wiki sez: in the radiation detection application, CR-39 material is exposed to proton recoils caused by incident neutrons. The proton recoils cause ion tracks, which are enlarged by an etching process in a caustic solution of sodium hydroxide. The enlarged ion tracks are counted under a microscope (commonly 200x), and the number of ion tracks is proportional to the amount of incident neutron radiation. Yeah, that's what they say. I'm seeing finer track images, in LR-115, using about 400X.

At 05:07 PM 10/6/2012, mix...@bigpond.com wrote: AFAIK fast neutrons are detected by the fact that they occasionally break a C12 nucleus into 3 alpha particles. It is the three alpha particles that produce three cone shaped tracks in the CR39, with a common origin. Note that only charged particles create tracks, because the tracks are formed from chemical changes in the CR39 caused by the CR39 molecules being ionized, and only energetic photons and charged particles cause ionization (not neutral particles). The triple tracks are pretty distinct; however, the routine usage of SSNTDs for neutron detection looks for proton tracks, created by proton knock-on from hydrogen-containing materials. In the SPAWAR triple-track report, the hydrogen would be in the CR-39 material itself. SSNTDs, like CR-39 and LR-115, can also be used to detect slow neutrons by using a boron-10 (n,alpha) converter screen. However, while I have some boron-10 material, slow neutrons are not expected from codeposition experiments. Of course, fast neutrons weren't expected either These materials are not sensitive to "energetic photons," i.e., gamma rays.

At 04:50 PM 10/6/2012, Jed Rothwell wrote: CR39 is very hard to use. It is not for dummies or beginners. That's the take home lesson I learned after listening to 2 days of discussion on CR32 by experts. CR39 is difficult to *interpret*. It's also a pain to etch. As normally used, CR39 is thick. As it is etched, deeper and deeper layers are shown. I think that a phase-contrast microscope is used, because CR39 is a clear plastic, one is essentially viewing pits on the surface. Focus is critical. There is a reason people invented electronic particle detectors and stopped using the analog ones such as CR39. A lot of reasons, actually. Actually, I think the solid state nuclear track materials like CR39 are more recent than electronic detectors like Geiger counters. But I'm not sure. I am not saying the old techniques are inferior, but they are harder. To say they are inferior would be like saying that RTDs are better than mercury thermometers. That is true in some ways but not so true in other ways. It is complicated. SSNTDs are accumulating detectors, so they can integrate radiation over a long period of time. You can detect, with CR-39, radiation that would be indistiguishable from noise with electronic detectors. There are instructions for using CR-39 in the Galileo project protocol documents. http://newenergytimes.com/v2/projects/tgp/TGP0-V5.1b%20Package.zip The Galileo Project report has some images and comments about interpreting CR-39. In addition to the replication attempts reported by Krivit, there was an Earthtech replication. Some work with CR-39 that I've seen used thin layers. I looked to see if I could find such material, but then I found LR-115. LR-115 is a more recently invented nuclear track detector material. It is cellulose nitrate, and suffers damage from ionizing radiation like CR-39, and is etched with sodium hydroxide like CR-39, except that a lower concentration, lower temperature, and less time are required. The material contains a red colorant. It comes coated on a 100 micron clear polyester base, and in 6 micron or 12 microns of detector thickness. A track that penetrates the whole surface layer will then show up as clear against the red material. I found it difficult to buy CR-39. I was able to buy LR-115 from Dosirad in France; I'm reselling the 6 micron material. For the kits, I cut it down to 1 x 1.5 cm pieces. I sell a 9 x 12 cm sheet for $30. LR-115 has a different response to radiation than CR-39. Tracks at energies above about 4 MeV may not sufficiently ionize the material with LR-115, at least Pam Mosier-Boss indicated this in an email. However, Am-241 sources from ionizing smoke detectors produce beautiful, clear tracks in CR-39. Now, Axil asked about the detection of neutrons. Neutrons, of course, don't leave tracks in SSNTDs. However, passing through a material containing hydrogen (like the detector materials), neutrons will collide with and eject protons from their positions in the plastics. These protons leave tracks, and are used, then, to infer the presence of neutrons. Most of the tracks shown in the CR-39 images are rather obviously proton knock-on tracks. SPAWAR, however, focused largely on rare triple-tracks, produced when a neutron impacts a carbon nucleus and breaks it into three alpha particles. In the first experimental run with one of my kits, done by a high school student, there are no clear tracks that were produced. The material was placed such that *only* neutron-caused tracks would be likely. It is possible that proton knock-on tracks were not energetic enough to produce tracks all the way through the detector layer, and more work is needed to characterize and determine the best etching protocol. However, LR-115 is sold for neutron detection, and we did follow the standard etching procedure, so the most likely explanation of the results is that neutrons were not generated. Nevertheless, it will be important to see some comparison results with LR-115 exposed to a known and calibrated neutron source. (In this experiment, the detectors were a bit further away from the cathode wire than the back sides of the SPAWAR CR-39 chips that showed so many back-side tracks. It's possible that for some unknown reason we did not set up a nuclear reaction. As far as I know, this was the first attempt to replicate the SPAWAR neutron findings. There will be others. Deeper analysis of the detector chips, which were partly damaged from unknown causes, is proceeding.) Back to CR-39, there has been work with thin layers of the plastic, created by evaporating solvent with the plastic dissolved in it. I think it's worth investigating that. It's been used to image radiation from biological cells that have been tagged with a radioistope, a radioautograph on a microscopic scale. An advantage of creating detector material like this would be that it could be completely fresh, no problem

When things are so cheap to make, then providing necessities to the less fortunate becomes that much more easy for the philanthropists and private charities. Today, people say that we have to threaten those who have money, with violence, so that we can take some of their money to help those who are less fortunate.

To take a more extreme case, in the U.S. we are plagued with people such as Rep. Paul Broun on the House Science Committee. He "told a church-sponsored banquet in his home state of Georgia that the theories of evolution and the big bang are 'lies straight from the pit of hell.'" With enough leaders like that over a few centuries, I suppose the U.S. would gradually devolve into something resembling Afghanistan. I am not exaggerating. I assume that if Broun had his way, we would not teach these things in schools. In Texas they are working vigorously to eliminate them. This is like throwing acid into the faces of girls who try to learn to read, the way the Taliban does. You cannot have a high tech society run by lunatics who prevent people from learning the fundamental laws of science. . . . maybe people would prefer to be in work, even if it is digging > trenches . . . What would be the point? In what sense would that be "work"? It would be a useless waste of time, and an insult. Even if the task had some purpose, we all know that a machine can do it far better. It would be like having people work in banks keeping accounts with a paper and pencil, doing arithmetic by hand. We all know that a computer costing a few hundred dollars can do more arithmetic in a single second than a person can do in a lifetime. That knowledge would make the task a crushing burden. We must make a "human use of human beings" as N. Weiner put it. The problem is that the scope of human uses for human beings is getting narrower and narrower. The problem was masterfully laid out by Orwell in "The Road to Wigan Pier" (referenced above). Here is how I would describe it: When only a person can do a task, and no machine is capable of it, is is ennobling work. It gives purpose and meaning to life. When a machine can do it far more cheaper, faster and better than a human, that same task then becomes worse than slavery. I do not see any easy solutions to this problem. I don't think it will go away on its own. Having said that, I think there are still many jobs that can only be done by people, and that people on welfare should be given. For example, taking care of elderly people or children, cleaning up and repairing parks and public places, building houses for poor people in projects like "Habitat for Humanity" and so on. Some of this work is menial but at present no robot can do it, so it still has dignity. - Jed

Re: [Vo]:Progress from the Martin Fleischmann Memorial Project (Celani replication)
Today I was in touch with Celani and some others in this project. They are cooperating, planning together, and exchanging information. That is excellent news. This could be better than Rossi, even though Rossi's reaction appears to have some technical advantages over what Celani has accomplished so far. When many researchers start to work on Celani's approach, or some other Ni-H approach, I expect they will soon catch up with Rossi. In other words, I do not think that a technical advantage means much at this stage. In particular, the size of the device makes no difference at all. 15 W is every bit as promising as 500 kW. Once the reaction can be controlled, scaling up should be easy. After you publish a paper or patent showing the control parameters there will probably be 50,000 engineers worldwide capable of scaling up, and most of them will do this far better than Rossi did. - Jed

We must add some context to your account. While you were working hard, the effects of which were to put in place a new technology that ended up making thousands of people redundant, there was a captain of industry who was working harder and more cleverly than you, directing the show and making sure that you and others of your kind were on the straight path. Because of the benefit that his brilliance brought to society in the form of increased productivity, despite all of the layoffs and the attendant economic stagnation in your area that followed upon his decisions, he was no doubt compensated manyfold what you were paid. In the UK, the government no doubt recouped some of the money that were required for the police force and the fire department and so on, which were essential to making this endeavor possible. In the US, this additional dimension of the question is largely elided, and the executive is understood to have achieved all that has been accomplished by the sweat of his own brow, thereby richly earning the fruits of this remarkable redistribution of wealth from the many thousands that were laid off to him and the shareholders of the company.

Success! Re: [Vo]:Relativistic magnetic field
As the drift velocity concept made perfect sense and also created null results where one would think effects might have been seen. And since it also can be confirmed based on homopolar generators and other experiments I decided to go further with it. Could it impact time varying induction? Could a coil made of one thin and one thick strand, wound together and connected so as to produce zero net magnetic field still create a net induction due to the different drift velocities? I realized it was plausible, but I lacked the skill to do a decent analysis and I am unsure if anyone could, so I tried it, I got an extremely thin magnet wire (it was salvaged from the stator of a shaded pole fan motor from a microwave oven) and a very thick multi strand wire that can take serious amps, I connected the ends of each together and then wound this bucking bifilar coil on a cardboard tube, perhaps 30 turns. I then connected the thin and thick wires to my signal generator, and attached a handy air core coil I had lying around to my oscilloscope. Sure enough I got a signal! I thought it could just be electrostatic, but if I rotate the coil 90 degrees the transformer action disappears! Even if and capacitive coupling is enhanced. So it isn't capacitive, it is actual inductive coupling from a non-inductive coil to an inductive coil! I thought that maybe the input waveform was passing through one wire and being reflected at the transition, however the signal input is connected to the thin and the ground is connected to the thick wire which makes a reflection less likely, furthermore I lowered the input frequency down to 1.5khz and it still worked! Therefore at this point I am reasonably sure that both wires are receiving approximately equal current. The only thing left to test really is what the level of induction compares to if a simple coil was to replace this one, if it turns out that at least 5 or 10 turns or more are required to match the inductive abilities of this coil then that would in my mind further indicate that the rectification is due to different drift velocities! This experiment has now taken longer to write about than assemble and perform! I encourage others who have appropriate equipment to give this one a shot. There is not guarantee but this could have an OU implication as this coil appears to create an inductive field, but would not receive induction, or would it? John
Re: [Vo]:A new economic system will be needed in the next 20 to 100 years
I am not sure that it will go anything like as far as you believe Jed, but some elements are already present. The first twenty years of my working life were spent automating the production of telephone exchange equipment, which resulted in many 1000s of people who used to work on the production lines being made redundant. Many of them still do not have jobs, and the area is now one of the most deprived areas in the UK. A small number of people (such as myself) were paid a lot more to do the continuing design work, until we were made redundant when the production and design was moved to China. So yes we need a new economic system to distribute the wealth in a workable way as people like me continue to make millions of people redundant, or maybe people would prefer to be in work, even if it is digging trenches, rather than sitting at home watching daytime TV.

I am talking about the future, not the present. At present, if you were to go to a farm and take away the crops by force, that would morally wrong. The farmer worked hard and risked his own capital to grow that food. So you are correct: capitalism is called for. The farmer should be allowed to sell the fruits of his labor on the open market. Now think about how the world will be in 100 years. There will be no farmers. All manual labor will be done by robots. There will probably be no farms; everything will be grown in indoor food factories. The cost of the food will be a factor or 10 or more cheaper than it is now. It will still be morally wrong to barge into a food factory and take what you want, because a corporation will have set up the factory, and invested capital and R&D in it. Now think about the world 200 or 300 years from now. The cost of building food factories will be far cheaper. Robots will not only build and maintain the building, and operate all of the equipment, they will also bring in raw materials from all over the solar system. Intelligent computers will design improved versions of the factories and equipment. They will build or upgrade as many factories as needed without human intervention. The production cost of the food will be as cheap per kilogram as tap water is today. When we reach that stage, charging for food becomes ridiculous. It would be like standing on a street today charging pedestrians for the use of the sidewalk or drinking fountain, in units of $0.0001. It is no longer a moral issue. After hundreds of years of development, the food factories have become standard and commodified to the point where there is no risk, and no profit. They might as well be run as public utilities, like today's water fountains or escalators in railroad stations. Grave moral problems in one era can become trivial technical issues in the next, thanks to scientific progress. A century ago, and even 20 years ago, it was difficult for us to provide all students with up-to-date textbooks. It cost society money, and it was a moral issue. Should we see to it that all children got the latest version of textbooks? Was it morally right to have some public schools in South Carolina with 40-year-old textbooks, while others had up-to-date textbooks? Now, with the Internet, we could easily give every child on planet earth the latest textbooks at a trivial cost. I expect the schools in South Carolina still use 40-year-old textbooks, but there is no technical reason why they should. There is no reason why we should charge the parents or schools or anyone else for these books. The authors and editors have to be paid, but we do not need publishers. The total payment for the author per book can be a few pennies. Excellent textbooks and lessons are available for free everywhere on earth already. See: http://www.khanacademy.org/ - Jed

Lets see now, after my interpreting or translating Jojo's many messages concerning the ill ways of Liberalism in these United States of America, I believe I have a fairly clear understanding of intentions. Now, seeing how you have stated at least several time that you live outside of this Country, it has literally forced me into thinking that you might be associated with a group of thoughtful caring loving giving heart tugging sobbing emotional sad unfortunate misgivings and/or stories about Nigerians and their struggles and therefor the reason why you have been offering up various $ums of inheritence money among other scemes that lure or entice gullible people in this Country into giving up as much of theirs, to get it? . I can onl assume that those on the "left" don't contribute nearly as much as those on the "right" to your rightous just nobel cause. All I can say is that " I guess it serves them right for being so gullible,,, but, that still doesn't make it right, you know. And BTW, you know that in these difficult ecomical times things are getting much tighter, so maybe you need to to budget yourself just like everyone else. Also, Obama in the Out House, uh, I mean White House can only serve as a "lesson" to enlighten all of the gullible giving fools that occupy this Country. So, best regards to you & yours in the furture, and please take what I say to heart, and try to be more understanding... (Ha!!!).

Re: [Vo]:A new economic system will be needed in the next 20 to 100 years
Jed may think he's writing about economics, but he's actually writing about morality and politics, because people pursue their economic policies in their quest for morality. For instance, Venezuela is falling apart. Venezuela is falling apart. http://reason.com/archives/2012/10/07/what-has-hugo-chavez-done-for-venezuela http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/news/2012/08/24/venezuela-imports-oil-despite-having-huge-reserves/ Another experiment in socialism leads to where every other experiment has led. That people continue to try this social experiment, is evidence that people will follow their moral conscience despite all the empirical evidence in the world against it. People desperately need to discover morality, and not just any morality, but the only morality possible which is universal and treats everyone equally. This the key: morality must be universal, and the only moral principle possible which treats everyone as equals, is the non-aggession principle. All others break universality in some way, shape, or form, and create extra-moral agents, like governments, which create the moral rules which we are all then required to follow. When people respect others, and do not threaten violence against them to achieve desired social and political goals, then the resulting economic system is capitalism. Craig
RE: [Vo]:CR39
Robin The cross-section for alpha emission from carbon is way too small for the explanation you suggest. Wiki sez: in the radiation detection application, CR-39 material is exposed to proton recoils caused by incident neutrons. The proton recoils cause ion tracks, which are enlarged by an etching process in a caustic solution of sodium hydroxide. The enlarged ion tracks are counted under a microscope (commonly 200x), and the number of ion tracks is proportional to the amount of incident neutron radiation. -Original Message- From: mix...@bigpond.com AFAIK fast neutrons are detected by the fact that they occasionally break a C12 nucleus into 3 alpha particles. It is the three alpha particles that produce three cone shaped tracks in the CR39, with a common origin. Note that only charged particles create tracks, because the tracks are formed from chemical changes in the CR39 caused by the CR39 molecules being ionized, and only energetic photons and charged particles cause ionization (not neutral particles).

Re: DC - DC EM induction? Re: [Vo]:Relativistic magnetic field
I have seen a possible (read probable) flaw in this DC induction. As the electrons in the faster section are more pancaked, there is a reduced side field, which means that there would be an increased longitudinal force outside of the wire pushing against the bend created by the acceleration, the 2 effects would cancel perhaps entirely.
