[Vo]:Re: Electron-mediated alpha decay in quasi-stable isotopes

For what it's worth, I agree with the Mill explanation of the source of 
energy being the angular momentum of electrons, either orbital or intrinsic 
or both.

PS:  that’s spin energy.

You seem to be conflating Holmlid with CQM, Robin.


Actually I was conflating it with IRH. Regardless, if one wants to get
energy from somewhere, then an explanation of the source of that energy
needs to be found.

If 50 eV UV is released from the "ash", then 50 eV must have gone into it's
creation.

Robin,

There are any number of way this can happen, including a dynamical Casimir
effect (after all, we are dealing with geometries which are clearly within
the Casimir range) ... but the most provocative possibility comes from a
"hybrid" viewpoint.

Mills suggests that about 54.4 eV can be derived from the loss of angular
momentum of electron at the second level of redundancy. Perhaps Holmlid has
shown us (by improving on Mills theory)  that when this level is reached,
the UV energy becomes internalized much of the time, no radiation occurs,
and the species shrinks all the way to "ultradense" with no further emission
of any kind.

... which kinda negates the prior conclusion that "both cannot be correct."

Maybe Holmlid and Mills are both partly correct in a way which goes a long
way towards explaining everything in LENR.

I think all such events were associated with spontaneous fission of U-235.  I 
do not know if physics calculations for non-critical neutrons were consistent 
with the spontaneous fission of U-235 measured in a non-energetic environment.  

I do believe the neutrino flux from the sun seems to influence radioactive 
decay.  It may have had an influence on U-235 fission also.  I do not think the 
data on spontaneous fission was accurate enough to discern the possible small 
effects an electric current on reactor fuel.  All tests were well grounded to 
handle static buildup as I recall.

Bob (Cook),

In your days working with/in connection with nuclear reactors, were there any 
anecdotes about strange things happening when an electrical current was run 
through reactor fuel?
