[Vo]:Re: LENR question (one) and info- for Aug. 17, 2015
Mill in liquid O with Haynes 25 cobalt alloy-very, very hard stuff-and you will probably get it as fine as you want, keeping the Ni exposed to O only. The high local pressure that you get in the milling process may cause oxide accumulation on bare Ni particles and produce the rarer Ni oxides.

It could be a huge breakthrough in LENR if there is a cross-connection to its catalytic properties and its ability to densify hydrogen. The structure is intriguing in the context of fractional hydrogen, since both Ni and O are Mills catalysts, but – in contrast to normal nickel oxides, there could be a major advantage in the superatomic spacing which is completely different from the natural oxides. Surprisingly (since nickel is hexavalent) there are only two main natural varieties of nickel oxide: Nickel(II) oxide, NiO, green in color and Nickel(III) oxide, Ni2O3, which is black. Nickel Dioxide, NiO2 is rarer in nature as is the tetroxide NiO4. Nickelo-nickelic Oxide is the chemical name of Ni3O4. I am wondering if one could take Ni2O3 along with nickel powder and grind in high speed ball mill for an extended time to arrive at a decent percentage of the superatomic version? From: Bob Cook The superatoms of Ni and O may many have inner shell electrons that are captured more easily (electron capture) than happens with regular Ni atoms. It would be nice to know, if the superatoms that are like Pd have the same ability to absorb H or D and to confine them in a lattice structure better suited to a fusion or other nuclear reaction involving mass energy transition to phonic energy. I wonder what the magnetic properties of the superatoms are?

You seem to be describing not deflation but the lowering of the prices of specific commodities due to price pressure arising from increases in productivity. I'm going to hazard a guess that economists don't think of this kind of downward price pressure as deflation, especially of the kind seen in the Great Depression. Deflation in that instance was across the board. If you held on to your money, it would be worth even more a week later. There was an incentive to refrain from spending and to keep your money in a can under your mattress. In a healthy economy, you might want to wait for two or three months to purchase that television or stereo system or car, because the price might be about to come down; but while you wait your money would become worth a little less overall because of a slight amount of inflation. If you did not intend to spend it you would want to put it to some other good use -- in an investment account or a savings account. Eric

In May 2008 Japanese researcher Yoshiaki Arata (Osaka University) demonstrated an experiment that produced heat when deuterium gas was introduced into a cell containing a mixture of palladium and zirconium oxide. In an August 2009 peer reviewed paper Akira Kitamura (Kobe University) et al. reported about replication of this experiment. Replication of earlier work by Arata had been claimed by McKubre at SRI. Miley’s device, does not require an external heat source, relying on the chemical reactions within it to produce the heat energy needed to run the unit. The fuel is ZrO2 (zirconium dioxide) and deuterium pressurized to 413 kilo pascals (60 psi).
