[Vo]:OT: trolling taken to a new level

2016-02-11 Thread Eric Walker
On Reddit, there's a subreddit that follows the exploits of "Ken M", who
comments on Yahoo! News and similar forums that focus on general news.

Well, it is pretty clear from the literature, starting in 2011 and continuing 
to recent papers - that the DCE the dynamical Casimir effect - can and does 
function to convert virtual photons into real photons. 

Even if we define the photon as massless, this is “work” by most definitions 
even if the base-level effect may not appear like mass is being moved. This 
distinction is mainly semantics, since excess energy from photons has a 
mass-equivalent. There are dozens of DCE papers, starting here. The point is 
the effect is proved in experiment and theory.

https://www.technologyreview.com/s/424111/first-observation-of-the-dynamical-casimir-effect/

http://arxiv.org/abs/1105.4714

Beyond that, we have to extrapolate beyond a weak effect requiring a 
superconductor to a robust effect of the SPP in combination with DCE, requiring 
no superconductor (or HTSC). If SPP operates as the paper claims, to convert 
one real photon into two real photons (photon doubling) and DCE gives real 
photons from virtual photons, and the translucent ceramic stores photons, then 
we have set the stage of a “photon chain reaction.” 

Typically the term “photon chain reaction” turns up in descriptions of lasers. 
The glow-stick can be analogized to a semi-coherent type of IR laser where 
there is one predominant IR emission line and lots of secondary light which is 
not coherent. We could call it a superradiant laser.

With any chain reaction, the output grows exponentially. Even if the 
incandescent light source is only 5% efficient initially (it is probably less), 
then net gain is still possible if there is sufficient doubling of photons due 
to the DCE/SPP mechanism.

This MO of photon chain reaction - may sound preposterous to those who are 
invested in nuclear fusion as the source of gain in the glow-stick (assuming 
Parkhomov can be replicated)… but it is crystal clear from actual results that 
in fact, it is far more preposterous to suggest fusion as the main source of 
gain. 

There is little indicia of fusion whereas DCE is proved in both experiment and 
theory. Real fusion in a Parkhomov tube is not proved in either theory or 
experiment. However, transmutation of elements could be a side effect of 
harnessing vacuum energy even if no fusion happens.

BTW – by most definitions of ZPE and its effect on electrons, especially 
Puthoff’s, it is clear that the Mills-effect, or fractional hydrogen, or 
UDD/UDH, or DDL, etc… these are ALL zero point effects - and the energy 
essentially comes from the same virtual photon conversion process as does DCE.

[Vo]:Re: DCE for SPP

2016-02-11 Thread Bob Cook
RE: [Vo]:DCE for SPPJones--

One further note coming out of Peter’s comments regarding the patent of 
Soininen of today is present below.

The following quote from paragraph 33 of the patent follows:

“Regarding the penetration of the Coulomb barrier around the atom nucleus, 
resonance of a wave function of a particle in a quantum well system has been 
described by David Bohm, “Quantum theory”, Prentice-Hall, New York 1951, which 
is incorporated herein by reference. Specifically, a wave is reflecting back 
and forth across the potential in a quantum well, a wave coming in the quantum 
well from outside enhances the wave inside the quantum well and a strong 
standing wave is built up inside the quantum well when the system is in 
resonance. Further, the waveform of a proton tunnels through the Coulomb 
barrier to the nucleus of an atom with certain probability. Near a resonance 
the waveform intensity of the proton is considerable in the quantum well and 
the probability of fusing proton with the nucleus is increased. The metastable 
state of the fused nucleus may have such a long lifetime in solid state 
structures that it can decay in other ways than by re-emission of the incident 
proton or by emission of gamma-ray photons, and energy is released over 
relatively long time also as lower energy photons (e.g. X-ray photons) or as 
phonons (lattice vibrations) to the surrounding solid lattice.”

This patent has many interesting facts and ideas new to me.  

However the quote noted above addresses a process for shifting potential energy 
of a nucleus via fusion to phonic energy of a lattice and for me is most 
interesting.  It addresses 
the transition of potential energy of a coherent system to kinetic energy that 
I mentioned in my previous comment on this thread.

2016-02-11 Thread Roarty, Francis X
Axil,
Perhaps vacuum energy cannot perform measurable work at our typical physical 
macro velocities  relative to C but  vacuum wavelengths / virtual particle 
density does define inertial frames and ,IMHO, can do work if you are not 
outputting reaction mass to push an object toward C. My point is that if you 
harness DCE to move objects between different frames of negative portions of C 
where vacuum density is instead subtracted between different negative values by 
Casimir suppression you get these regions of equivalent negative accelerations 
for free as a property of the lattice defects and quantum geometry,  and the 
normally un-exploitable property of HUP [random motion of gas] accumulates as 
it moves the atoms between these regions forcing a spatial imbalance where they 
start to contract in what I am convinced is actually a negative form of 
Lorentzian contraction and time dilation that fits the claimed anomalies for 
both f/h and tritium. Naudts should have pursued his 2005 math paper further 
but he did endorse the hydrino telling me he understood the implications but 
was afraid to go out on the limb. I continue to endorse a view that these 
negative vacuum regions can be as relativistic wrt open space as, open space is 
to the gravity well of an event horizon, but now the isotropy [vacuum density] 
is re-defined as the difference between the square law of gravitation and  
inverse cube of Casimir suppression. In this definition the hydrogen is able to 
exploit the previously un-exploitable property of random motion [HUP trap] to 
move between these negative frames whereas a positive equivalent would require 
rocket fuel to attain different frames in a gravity well. I believe there then 
exists a set stage for “building” a Heisenberg trap [Maxwellian demon of sorts] 
but nature will always take the path of least resistance and contracted 
hydrogen will forever move through these negative regions avoiding work unless 
we limit their paths and force its motion to perform work.
I suspect the orbitals of f/h molecules oppose changes between inertial frames 
while atoms move freely and after disassociation the atoms reform new molecules 
at whatever inertial region they happen to occupy when they meet just waiting 
for random motion to move them away to regions where their contraction level 
opposes the local density enough to again disassociate the molecule and start 
the cycle over again. Photons from this process are very likely the key to 
engineering this process into a positive loop instead of nature’s desire to 
damp out and seek the easy path but SPP and resonance are beyond my skill set.

It would seem that the same issues Robin raises  that apply to the concept 
of negative energy apply to negative mass.  Mass may be merely a continuous 
function with the boundary between negative and positive mass being 
associated with the boundary between virtual and real existence.  Here I am 
thinking of the Dirac Sea as being on the other side of the boundary 
separating negative and positive mass and energy.


Philippe Hatt has an interesting theory involving negative mass for the 
construction of the protons and neutrons from positive and negative mass 
consideration.


It may be that Robin's "system" is the key.  The system that includes both 
sides of the Dirac Sea and our real 4-D universe.   And of course the 
"system" may even be different than that.

Axil, well put! It is exactly as you say " that perhaps insufficient
consideration may have been given to the integration with the larger system." , 
the mainstream considers the isotropy of open space a sort of ground state 
because virtual particles and Casimir effect were not considered. Nano regions 
can be suppressed via Casimir effect to attain vacuum densities far lower than 
we observe at the macro scale. Mainstream only wants to consider changes in 
vacuum density / inertial frames as a functions of relativistic acceleration or 
equivalent acceleration adhering to square law.

If the vacuum can be induced to generate more virtual particle production
in one location then another location of the vacuum must produce less
virtual particle production to keep the average energy production of the
vacuum zero.

The suppression of virtual particles through this unbalancing method is
termed negative vacuum energy.

Given enough time, development and resources, will it be possible to build
one or more apparatuses that will resolve the layout of the surrounding
cosmos in three (and four) dimensions?

What is the smallest body that can be detected, in theory and in practice?

It opens a complete different window on the Universe.
The analogy that is often given is imagine the cosmic show is like a TV
show. Until now we had video but not audio. Finally we turned the audio on.
Gravitational waves are a different but complementary way to observe the
universe.
We already learning things we could not learn before just using EM
radiation. For example that there are black holes systems with such large
masses.
This has consequences in terms of galaxy evolution and how stars were
formed.
And this is just the beginning.
The ultimate price is when we will see the gravitational waves from Big
Bang.
While the Microwave Cosmic Background tell us abut the universe at a very
early stage (500 K years) we cannot receive any earlier information about
the universe using EM radiation.
The equivalent gravitational wave background when detected will tells
information from a fraction of a second after the Big Bang. Only
gravitational radiation can give us a picture of the universe that early.

Also information from events like the one just observed eventually would
give us clues on how gravity and quantum mechanics work together.
The consequences of this discovery are enormous.

In another report I heard black hole collisions are thought to occur only
once in a million years.
Is that true?

Also how can they know for certain that this not a seismic event? After all
there is a great deal we do not know about the Earth's interior.

[Vo]:Re: DCE for SPP

2016-02-11 Thread Bob Cook
RE: [Vo]:DCE for SPPJones--

Most definitions of work derive from F=MA.   E=Ft.  I did not learn that EM 
energy, photons were work.  However, definitions change with time.  In addition 
I was not taught that all energy was equivalent.  This was a concept that 
Einstein suggested, as far as I know.  It was not taught in physics classes in 
the 50’s and early 60’s to my knowledge.  Neither was Dirac’s Sea discussed.  
The appearance of particles out of nothing was a mystery, as far as I remember. 
 

That being said, I tend now to agree with the idea that there is a source of 
energy that is not real, but comes from the ZPE source—Dirac’s Sea or whatever 
you may want to call the source.

With respect to the idea that all types of energy—potential energy or kinetic 
energy (mass in motion in a real space-time set of dimensions)—are equivalent 
colors my thoughts about LENR.  Understanding how one type of potential energy 
is changed to another and/or kinetic energy of a mass is the real question.   
And the mechanism for connection of energy in Dirac’s Sea to the real world is 
another important question.  

As you and Fran are suggesting, it is the latter question that needs attention 
and is at the heart of explaining the various LENR phenomena.  The former 
question is also important IMHO when it comes to converting spin energy to 
phonic vibrational energy.  Given the relationship between spin and angular 
momentum of a particle, it seems that they both—spin and phonic energy—are a 
form of kinetic energy—in other words mass in motion in the real world.  The 
small quanta associated with any system’s change of spin energy is a key axiom 
IMHO.  It leads to the necessity for a coherent system in a resonance that 
allows these small quanta to be distributed within the coherent system with a 
change from from spin—angular momentum—energy to kinetic (phonic) energy.   It 
may be that a “spinor” particle exchanges to the Dirac Sea.

From: Roarty, Francis X 


Ø  Perhaps vacuum energy cannot perform measurable work at our typical 
physical macro velocities relative to C …


Well, it is pretty clear from the literature, starting in 2011 and continuing 
to recent papers - that the DCE the dynamical Casimir effect - can and does 
function to convert virtual photons into real photons. 

Even if we define the photon as massless, this is “work” by most definitions 
even if the base-level effect may not appear like mass is being moved. This 
distinction is mainly semantics, since excess energy from photons has a 
mass-equivalent. There are dozens of DCE papers, starting here. The point is 
the effect is proved in experiment and theory.


https://www.technologyreview.com/s/424111/first-observation-of-the-dynamical-casimir-effect/

http://arxiv.org/abs/1105.4714


Beyond that, we have to extrapolate beyond a weak effect requiring a 
superconductor to a robust effect of the SPP in combination with DCE, requiring 
no superconductor (or HTSC). If SPP operates as the paper claims, to convert 
one real photon into two real photons (photon doubling) and DCE gives real 
photons from virtual photons, and the translucent ceramic stores photons, then 
we have set the stage of a “photon chain reaction.” 

Typically the term “photon chain reaction” turns up in descriptions of lasers. 
The glow-stick can be analogized to a semi-coherent type of IR laser where 
there is one predominant IR emission line and lots of secondary light which is 
not coherent. We could call it a superradiant laser.

With any chain reaction, the output grows exponentially. Even if the 
incandescent light source is only 5% efficient initially (it is probably less), 
then net gain is still possible if there is sufficient doubling of photons due 
to the DCE/SPP mechanism.

This MO of photon chain reaction - may sound preposterous to those who are 
invested in nuclear fusion as the source of gain in the glow-stick (assuming 
Parkhomov can be replicated)… but it is crystal clear from actual results that 
in fact, it is far more preposterous to suggest fusion as the main source of 
gain. 

There is little indicia of fusion whereas DCE is proved in both experiment and 
theory. Real fusion in a Parkhomov tube is not proved in either theory or 
experiment. However, transmutation of elements could be a side effect of 
harnessing vacuum energy even if no fusion happens.

BTW – by most definitions of ZPE and its effect on electrons, especially 
Puthoff’s, it is clear that the Mills-effect, or fractional hydrogen, or 
UDD/UDH, or DDL, etc… these are ALL zero point effects - and the energy 
essentially comes from the same virtual photon conversion process as does DCE.
