RE: [Vo]:Re: The appearance of muons are explained by SPP theory.Yes, it does Jones. I think what is happening, is that a substantial number of muons are starting to decay (about 5-6 GeV, 2.2 us half life, but relativistic, and Earth frame of reference), unloading/depositing the bulk of their energy in the covered levels of the Parking Garage, or after 3 blocks/plates of lead thickness or so. It’s not good to be under the first several tiers (less than about a meter or two of concrete) of a Parking Garage as far as cosmic muons, go. If you’re on top of the garage, the number of muons decaying in you (depositing damaging radiation), will be less than the impeded muons by moderate amounts of concrete ... Of course if the amount of concrete is substantial, then the brunt of muons will have decayed away. If you check out the thesis/reference I placed at the bottom, you will see in the simulations based mainly on the Bethe-Bloch Equation (for radiation stopping power of heavy particles like muons) etc., that radiation dose increases with small amounts of concrete above the human body. Another interesting factoid from the thesis: Outside, your stomach (torso) area takes the most radiation dosage from vertically-delivered cosmic muons... ugh... ... As far as densities go, the whole Earth atmosphere is about equal to 10 meters of water (Human Body?), 2 m of Rock (Concrete?) or 0.9 m of Lead.

RE: [Vo]:Re: The appearance of muons are explained by SPP theory.
Mark, There are several ways to explain the stratification phenomenon of “lower-initial-flux followed by increasing-flux, followed by decreasing-flux.” This is a complex phenomenon which cannot be easily modeled with one curve. In statistical terms, it looks like this could be the crossing of two or three parameter curves. One curve is the absorption curve, describing depletion of muons via elastic collisions and thermalization. Another is the decay curve which is based on the 2 microsecond half-life alone. These two are intertwined, and can be averaged into a single “dissipation” curve. Nothing new so far. Then … there is the more interesting curve, which is sloping the opposite way (increasing) and appears to be anti-entropic - which is the multiplication curve. Within a spatial zone, there is an increasing flux of muons. The close analogy in nuclear physics is the well-known (n,2n) reaction which – curiously is also seen in lead. When neutrons enter lead or heavier elements, some of them are scattered or merely absorbed but others interact as if in spallation, with the result being a multiplication ratio - where the initial neutron typically knocks out an additional neutron, doubling the population. But the secondary neutrons are generally too slow to continue the multiplication, and a true chain reaction cannot be sustained. The analogy is limited since neutrons are neutral and muons are charged, but otherwise seems to explain an increase in muons. The difference of concrete vs. lead is that the later has a greater propensity to multiply muons. From: Mark Jurich Yes, it does Jones.

[Vo]:LENR EXTENT CRISIS, DEFINING ROSSIBILITY
Too much seriousness in the weekend is not healthy. I wrote- do not ignore the info and the OTHER, please. It is here: http://egooutpeters.blogspot.ro/2015/08/lenr-extent-crisis-defining-rossibility.html For a good new week! Peter -- Dr. Peter Gluck Cluj, Romania http://egooutpeters.blogspot.com
Re: [Vo]:Rossi's 1 MW Thermal LENR plant trial. What's the current consensus?
@Orion's Belt Jones cynical? Nahhh. Well, maybe a little. At least he has some feelings left and is not jaded to the core like me. It's not easy being green

[Vo]:Rossi beware!
The recent experiments by Holmlid indicate the production of a zoo of sub-atomic particles including muons associated with the LENR reaction. When muons decay, they produce electrons. Could the Hot cat be producing this unusual type of radiation? Is the name “M.me http://m.me/Curie” be related to the discovery of radiation? Will the Hot cat produce so much muon radiation that it may be harmful to Rossi in that shipping container? Does Rossi know that his Hot cat is producing muons? Will Rossi meet the same fate as “M.me http://m.me/ Curie” under the possible extreme exposure to radiation? When breaking new ground in science danger to life and limb sometimes occurs. All those muons coming from the Mouse might be driving the Cat into unexpectedly high SSM efficiency. Any reactor that can produce all those electron, so many as to enable direct electrical production, that reactor must be producing huge amounts of muons. Rossi realty doesn't know what is happening inside the Hot cat...it new...but there is no free lunch in this world. For all those who care for Rossi's welfare. convince him to leave that shipping container.
