I didn't quite follow this; English explanations, as always, tend to be
a bit fuzzy.  Could you characterize this reversed Lorentz contraction
mathematically, and show where you believe it comes from?

Lorentz contraction, so called, takes place when we shift our point of
view from one reference frame to another, and mathematically, it falls
out of the Lorentz transform for mapping coordinates in one inertial
frame to another.  What frames are we discussing here, and what
transform, exactly, are you proposing using which will result in
reversed contraction and (apparently) reversed time dilation?

manifestations are based on Casimir cavities.



Some brief opinions follow, for what they are worth.

The effect of the Casimir force on orbitals of atoms or molecules in  
cavities is complex and experiment shows much less effect than  
expected by current theory.  See Ground States and the Zero-Point  
Field, H.E. Puthoff,Scott Little, Michael Ibison, Earthtech

http://www.earthtech.org/experiments/src/srcreport.htm

The very small reduction in orbital size, and thus orbital energy,  
due to relief of Casimir pressure would not appear to justify an  
expectation of significant fusion.  I think it doesn't come close to  
the 1/N hydrino state for N large, and besides, the hydrinos are not  
thought to require a cavity to exist.  These kinds of assertions  
would in any case require at least some kind of quantitative analysis  
to be credible.


I must admit to having speculated that a scenario of repeated orbital  
size changes fueled by the ZPF might indeed produce excess heat.

RE: [Vo]:Hydrino represents Lorentz contraction in the opposite direction from event horizon

I have a better explanation with animation at http://byzipp.com/energy/ but
basically it is just trig. I am saying that our perspective relative to the
equivalent speed approaching an event horizon has a corollary in the Casimir
cavity where I propose all vacuum fluctuations are "up converted" as QED
refers to the inhibition of longer wavelengths between narrowing conductive
plates. QED suggests the restricted longer wavelength flux are replaced with
shorter wavelengths. I am proposing that they are the same longer flux
twisted on the time axis which simply appears shorter from our perspective
AND I posit that all the flux regardless of frequency twist as one fabric
inside the cavity. I believe that this is a form of Lorentz contraction in
that space time inside the cavity is slowed relative to outside the cavity
and that atoms diffused in the cavity see outside the cavity in the same way
we observe the twin approaching an event horizon only now from our
perspective time is accelerated instead of slowed. 

The trig would be our temporal vector at some low angle say about 10 degrees
above horizontal representing the spatial axii while the paradox twin
approaching an event horizon might be up aroung 85 degrees which causes the
accepted Lorentz contraction as time and space trade parameters while the
vector length remains constant. I am proposing  catalysts all create Casimir
cavities which accelerate their reactions from our perspective by actually
Widening the time axis while compressing the spatial axis. This is still a
relativistic displacement but max acceleration is now on the temporal axis
and the spatial vector appear to take on fractional quantum states.

I'm sorry, I can't make sense of this.

If tau is the local time for a tiny observer located inside the cavity,
and t is time for an external observer, what's dt/dtau?

And why should it be anything other than 1?

I have no idea what you mean by "longer flux twisted on the time axis";
I have no idea what it means to twist something on the time axis.  Could
you show the transform you have in mind?

For example, for the Lorentz transform, with c=1 and g=dt/dtau, and
motion along the x axis, we have

 | x'  |   | -vg   g  0  0 |
 | y'  | = |   0   0  1  0 |
 | z'  |   |   0   0  0  1 |

unless I typed it in wrong.  That's a hyperbolic rotation, of course,
but it doesn't sound like you have that in mind, and in any case it is
the unity transform unless the frames are in motion with respect to each
other.  In the present case, the frames are stationary with respect to
each other, and the Lorentz transform is just I.

So, what transform are you proposing using, and how are you proposing
applying it in order to obtain something other than dt/dtau=1 in this case?

I'm sorry, I can't make sense of this.

 

If tau is the local time for a tiny observer located inside the cavity,

and t is time for an external observer, what's dt/dtau?

 

And why should it be anything other than 1?

 

  Because it is a protected harbour where vacuum fluctuations flowing
from future to past intersect with 3D space briefly wink into and out of
existence while keeping atomic orbitalls sustained as in the Puthoff model.
I am positing that we are NOT the opposite extreme from an event horizon and
that our standard ratio of time to space is reflected in the ratio of short
to long vacuum fluctuation wavelengths (AKA large and small virtual
particles) known to vary in Casimir cavities and I suspect approaching an
event horizon, There is variable rate of intersection between time and space
and I am saying the cavity forms a bubble that slows that rate of
intersection relative to outside the cavity.   

 

I have no idea what you mean by "longer flux twisted on the time axis";
larger virtual particles displaced on time axis appear smaller due to
contraction

I have no idea what it means to twist something on the time axis.  Could

you show the transform you have in mind? Sorry I use the tem twist instead
of displacement to simplify the animation. http://byzipp.com/energy/

 

For example, for the Lorentz transform, with c=1 and g=dt/dtau, and

motion along the x axis, we have

 

 | tau |   |   g -vg  0  0 |

 | x'  |   | -vg   g  0  0 |

 | y'  | = |   0   0  1  0 |

 | z'  |   |   0   0  0  1 |

the unity transform unless the frames are in motion with respect to each

other.  In the present case, the frames are stationary with respect to

each other, and the Lorentz transform is just I.

 

My point is there is relative motion, our space time outside the cavity is
rushing around a bubble created by the "up converted" vacuum fluctuations
inside the cavity.

 

So, what transform are you proposing using, and how are you proposing

applying it in order to obtain something other than dt/dtau=1 in this case?

 

 

>

How can you have a temporal vector at some angle above horizontal?  That

seems to mix space and time measures in a way that doesn't make a lot of

apparent sense; perhaps you need to define some terms here.  What's a

"temporal vector"?

 

I am collapsing all 3 spatial axis onto the x axis and time onto the Y. I am
saying we have a normally negligible temporal component that becomes
dominant when for instance  a twin approaches the speed of light and returns
home to find the other twin aged.

Combined vector might be a better term representing the temporal rise over
the spatial run of the vector. This vector would be almost vertical for an
object approaching C and almost horizontal in a Casimir cavity. Jan Naudts
introduced the concept of a relativistic solution for the hydrino and Ron
Bourgoin published a paper that exactly matched the 137 fractional quantum
states claimed by Mills. His formula can be inverted to also suggest 137
super states of the hydrogen atom that I contend would manifest approaching
the event horizon.

I'm sorry if my "demands" that you define some terms offended you, Frank.

But rather than accusing me of being unwilling to take the effort to
understand your theory, *you* should just take the effort to actually:

 -- define your terms

 -- provide the formula you've derived for dt/dtau

 -- provide the formula for the alleged contraction

 -- provide the formula for the transform you're using which leads to
those values

 -- tell us what event horizon you're talking about

Can you do that?

Absent any equations or definitions of your terms, your theory appears
to be little more than word salad.

By the way, the patent which apparently started Frank off on this, and
the effort to produce a device based on it, are described here:

http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Jovion_Corporation_and_Zero_Point_Energy

It's an interesting concept:  squash atoms through tiny cavities which
force them to give up energy, and then let the inflate again with energy
from the zero point field.

So you sort of treat the atoms like little sponges;  squeeze out their
energy using tiny cavities, then let them loose to "sponge up" some more
from the ZPF.

It's an interesting concept:  squash atoms through tiny cavities which

energy

from the zero point field.

So you sort of treat the atoms like little sponges;  squeeze out their
energy using tiny cavities, then let them loose to "sponge up" some  
more

from the ZPF.


This Haisch and Moddel patent is very similar to the thruster concept  
I posted here in 2003:


http://mtaonline.net/~hheffner/ZPE-CasimirThrust.pdf

The difference between concepts is I proposed extracting momentum  
from the energy/(inertial mass) change, dp/dt change, instead of the  
energy difference.  Both concepts have the difficulty that the energy/ 
mass change is not experimentally verified, and thus not quantifiable  
for engineering purposes. By converting mass/energy changes in cavity  
traverses to momentum gain, however, energy is then made available by  
converting the thrust into device momentum, especially for space  
propulsion.  Also, if sufficient momentum is gained with respect to  
drive energy input, then such a thruster drive can be mounted on a  
large armature of an electric generator in order to produce  
electrical energy directly.

Re: [Vo]:Hydrino represents Lorentz contraction in the opposite direction from event horizon

2009-07-23 Thread Stephen A. Lawrence
Hmm -- Horace, I had a question about a somewhat different proposal.

You have proposed that if we let two plates come together, pushed by the
Casimir force, then slide them apart sideways, and then repeat, we can
get energy out of the cycle.

Now, I don't pretend to understand the Casimir effect at any but the
most superficial level.  However, it *seems*, on the surface, a lot like
a "push gravity" theory, in which we're being constantly bombarded by
some kind of radiation which "pushes" on all sides equally, and the
apparent gravitational field of an object is due to its shading us from
the "global G-particle field".

The chief difference I see here is that, AFAIK, a "push gravity" field
is conservative.  In fact, as I understand it, the only detectable
difference between "push gravity" and Newtonian gravity is in very
intense fields, where the "push gravity" field may "hit the rails" and
start "clipping".

As I understand it, the reason the sliding-plate thing doesn't work to
produce energy with push gravity is that the "push" comes from impact by
particles coming from *all* *directions* over an entire hemisphere.
When we're sliding the plates apart, there is a "push" force acting on
both *edges* of the sliding plate, but the trailing edge is "partly
shaded" by the other plate.  (See attachment.)  Consequently the "push"
on the leading edge is slightly larger than the "push" on the trailing
edge, and the work done sliding the plates apart ends up the same as if
they were just pulled apart directly.

The question this brings up is, does something similar happen with the
Casimir force?  Does the adjacent conductive plate reduce the
possibilities for virtual particles appearing at the trailing edge of
the plate, and hence reduce the "push" on that end, and so result in the
need to "do work" to slide the plates apart sideways?

It may be that the fact that you can make a conductive plate arbitrarily
thin would imply that this mechanism doesn't happen or at least doesn't
exactly cancel the energy gained.  But I don't understand the Casimir
effect, which is why I'm asking.

I have read your suggestions and will make some attempt to clarify

reply is that the Bohr radius remains constant in a hydrino but we only
perceive the spatial component which has contracted. The hydrino radius
between the nucleus and orbital has a temporal rise and spatial run
different from the hydrogen radius but the length of the hypotenuse
remains constant. For a fractional ground state of 1/n it is just
Pythagoreans:  Bohr radius ^2 = (Bohr/N)^2 + Y^2  where Y solved for
distance can be converted to time by C/Y

You seem to have forgotten that I also asked a number of very specific
questions, all of which were directed at understanding what you were
trying to say, and none of which you answered.  You apparently ignored
all of them.

You gave two links in your messages, but did not even suggest that any
of my questions were answered in either of them; certainly an animation,
the first thing you provided, was not going to answer the questions I asked.

As far as I can tell you either never read the questions that I asked,
or did not understand them.  If it's the latter, you should have said so
and asked for clarification.  If, on the other hand, you felt the
couldn't be answered in the present domain of discourse, you should have
said so, and said why.

Ignoring them was not a good plan if you hoped to discuss your theory.

 and then focus on the next question for a while, write down that
answer...

... and then do it again, until you get to the end of the list of

and THEN, *after* addressing each question in turn, send the response?

Whatever... Let's look at the item you answered.

Let's stop right there.  The "present", for any observer, has zero
thickness along that observer's time axis.  What does it mean for the
radius of the orbit to have an increased extent along the time axis?

Time is not a spatial dimension, after all, and there *is* a difference
between time and space, even in special relativity.  The "radius" is a
distance measure between the nucleus and the electron, which is, in
classical terms, determined by finding the coordinates of an event at
the nucleus and an event at the electron, determining that their time
coordinates *match* in our frame of reference, and then finding the
difference in their space coordinates.  In other words, the absolute
value of the interval between an event in the nucleus and one at the
electron is the radius of the orbit (in our frame of reference) *if* the
time coordinates of the two events match (in our frame of reference).

Now, you say the radius is rotated into time, and so it appears shorter
in space.

Please explain how (in principle) you would measure the size of the
radius, and what it means for it to be rotated into time.

Serious, folks - Frank has a fascinating alternative to Mills, and it is a

this point in time - even in dilated-time  ;-)

As to its predictive power, yes, I think there could be something to Nick's
suggestion that warrants a closer look.

However, getting a massive charged particle to transverse a Casimir gap
would be difficult. A minimal beam of ultra cold neutrons comes to mind as a
particle whose decay time is well known, short, and could be influenced by a
short transit time. Matter of fact, I have a vague memory of something
similar already being out there... for different purposes, but it might be
worth a look.

I wonder if a orthogonal laser pulse between plates, spaced at a few nm
might show an effect? Yes, that was a rhetorical question, since we know it
to be true - but isn't this adequately described and/or is time dilation
part of it? The beauty of the photonic route is that you might be able to
predict in advance, and arrange to measure for a predicted Doppler red shift
based on time and other variable - and would not the existence of a few
kinds of gratings or filters already be tentative evidence of how to
proceed?

Steven,
Been briefly auditing when work allows but this is a quickie...
I believe time speeds up from our perspective accounting for the amount
of catalytic action that occurs (if relativistic then reactants are
unaware of the acceleration and actually put in all those extra hours
from their perspective) - and in response to a previous comment, the
reason I kept using the term event horizon as a reference instead of
approaching the speed of light was to establish equivalence at both ends
of the spectrum as the cavity and observer remain spatially stationary
to each other the delta in acceleration must be through equivalence
also. I believe the sea of vacuum flux permeate or "pressure" matter at
slightly different rates that is multiplied in a Casimir cavity, This
differential then creates an equivalent acceleration perpendicular to
space allowing two objects spatially stationary to other to have
different temporal accelerations (just read Puthoffs' "Everything from
Nothing" from list Horace sent me, I think I am using the term
"pressure" in the same way he did)

Horrace
I just read your Inertial paper you referenced from 2003. You were
way ahead of your time and think you should return to that paper and update
it to reflect some of the information we can glean from BLP and Jovion. We
now know that keeping the gas monatomic is important and we also know that
black light plasma should be emitted when linkage to vacuum flux is
established. It doesn't matter who's theory is correct about how the energy
is transferred as long as we agree the plasma emitted is from the hydrogen.
I recall reading that Mills' showed off a Black Light plasma lamp which gave
the witness a sunburn and that a Dutch physicist(Kr..?) is trying to repeat
the lamp in Europe. If such a lamp were available it would make a simple
test for your thruster in that a black light plasma lamp with a portable
supply on one side of a beam balance and equal weight on the other would
exhibit different inertia when on vs off. Adding or subtracting weights
while the plasma is exhibited should have different frictional linkage with
the ZPE field and slow the settle time. I am not saying it would levitate in
fact the opposite is likely in that it would increase inertia making the
lamp harder to move.

This Haisch and Moddel patent is very similar to the thruster concept  
I posted here in 2003:

http://mtaonline.net/~hheffner/ZPE-CasimirThrust.pdf

The difference between concepts is I proposed extracting momentum  
from the energy/(inertial mass) change, dp/dt change, instead of the  
energy difference.  Both concepts have the difficulty that the energy/ 
mass change is not experimentally verified, and thus not quantifiable  
for engineering purposes. By converting mass/energy changes in cavity  
traverses to momentum gain, however, energy is then made available by  
converting the thrust into device momentum, especially for space  
propulsion.  Also, if sufficient momentum is gained with respect to  
drive energy input, then such a thruster drive can be mounted on a  
large armature of an electric generator in order to produce  
electrical energy directly.

for hospital radiology clinics for various kids of uptake scans. I  
had a heart scan based on positron emission from technetium.  I was  
shocked to see the reading on my geiger counter when I got home and  
placed it near me.  The radioactivity went away after a while.


It is not logical to expect a cavity effect to cause any detectable  
change in the amount of 40K. It is only the *disintegration rate*  
that should be affected while in the cavity.  It is not easy to  
measure that rate in-situ. Once out of the cavity, no difference  
would be detectable because so little of 40K is eliminated in a  
matter of days, even if the half-life is cut by a 1000 to 1 while in  
the cavity.  By using a short half-life isotope, the disintegration  
rate post-cavity will be measurably affected if the in-cavity  
disintegration rate is affected significantly.


Technetium can be chemically separated from whatever apparatus in  
which it is used, and the before and after counts easily compared to  
expected values.

Yes, we would be looking for a dramatic change in the decay rate as measured in 
the average microrem per hour, or whatever, but "dramatic" or logical is not 
the problem - it is even less logical to expect the drastic changes which have 
been claimed in such things as thorium remediation. In either case, if there 
was pronounced time dilation at the Casimir geomtery - it could be extreme - 
not gradual.

Admittedly, the operative word there for thorium is "claimed". But speaking of 
the Barker patents, which is a situation of high electrostatic voltage 
containment = a few of those claims were for changes on the order of 10^6 in 
decay rates ... and I am convinced they are accurate, from personal work I have 
done.

I would not hesitate to give 40K a shot, if I were in Fran's shoes and thought 
it would help to validate the theory - but sure, if other isotopes with shorter 
half-lives are available, and can be placed in cavities as easily as by vacuum

I have not made the point clear.  Suppose your sample of 40 K  
actually does change on the order of 10^6 in decay rate while in the  
cavity, and resumes its old decay rate when outside the cavity.  It's  
new half life is then 1.3 million years.  In one year you consume  
about (1/2)(1/(1.3x10^6) = .00386 of your 40K.  If you run the  
experiment for 36 days, or about 1/10 a year.   You consume about  
(1/10)(. 00386) = 0.00386 of the sample.  Now, after the  
experiment, if you digest the material and extract your 40K, and  
count it, you will have to distinguish a loss of 0.00386 of the  
sample, far less than the accuracy of any kind of extraction that can  
be performed.  Unless you use a short half life isotope, you need to  
measure cavity count rates in-situ, or determine them from calorimetry.


If you use an isotope with a short half life, you only have to run  
the experiment for about the length of the half life to see major  
results. Technetium has a half life of 6 hours (not 66 hours as I  
mistakenly typed earlier, it is 99Mo that has the 66 hour half life,  
and  99mTe is produced from 99Mo in hospitals), so if you run the  
experiment 6 hours and measure the count, it should be about 1/2 the  
original.  If the half life is reduced to 1/1000 of 6 hours,  or 21.6  
seconds, then a 6 hour run will leave only (1/2)^1000 of the original  
material, a robust result!






I would not hesitate to give 40K a shot, if I were in Fran's shoes  
and thought it would help to validate the theory - but sure, if  
other isotopes with shorter half-lives are available, and can be  
placed in cavities as easily as by vacuum melting - then go for

RE: [Vo]:Hydrino represents Lorentz contraction in the opposite direction from event horizon

2009-07-28 Thread Jones Beene
But Horace - you do not need to be concerned with weight loss at all, nor
with what happens after the experiment. I think you are basing your
assumptions on the common argon dating method for minerals (the 40K -> 40Ar
dating method). That is not needed here. We do not care about change in
mass. This is a different approach than the argon dating method and it is
similar to what the Barkers did.

 

The only concern is the actual ongoing counts: IOW the actual ongoing decay
rate, IF that rate can be altered by Casimir cavities - that is all that
matters in the simplest experiment.

 

Here is a quick and dirty way to describe it. If this is successful, then
you would definitely want to improve on it, but this can offer a prima facie
case for alteration in the decay rate by Casimir cavities, and can be done
cheaply.

 

 

1)Obtain two identical flat samples of potassium metal (exposure to moisture
must be avoided). Preferably they will be enriched in 40K but that is not
required

 

2)For simplicity obtain two identical GM meters with datalogging and USB
connectors, like the GM-10

http://www.blackcatsystems.com/GM/geiger_counter.html

 

3) Confirm in side-by-side testing that the decay rate of both samples is
nearly identical from a set distance - lets say it is 1000 counts per minute
at 5 cm head-on with the meter aimed down from above. 

 

4) Obtain a gram of Raney nickel powder and loosely cover one of the samples
with it, and remeasure the decay rate. It should not change much but could
be lowered to say 950 due to partial shielding from Raney. The GM-10 will
pick up secondaries from moderately shielded beta decay, and my experience
has been that the loose powder would not change the rate much.

 

4) Place that sample in a vacuum chamber in a shallow mold, covered with the
Ni powder, evacuate for an extended period, and then heat above 146 F, and
give the much denser Ni time to be impregnated with K in the pores, which
extend into that size range

 

5) Now measure again the two samples, for a side-by-side decay rate, as
before - and continue for the next week and datalog. 

 

Is there a significant difference in the average over time between the
Casimir impregnated sample? i.e. if the bulk sample continues at roughly the
same average of 1k counts/hr and the Ni impregnated sample has increased to
1.5 k counts/hr (when it should be slightly less) then you may have enough
of a prima facie case for real time dilation to really think out a much more
elaborate and controlled experiment.

 

The problem - which is seen in the Barker experiments is that the decay rate
is not always increased - with some samples, the rate decreases, depending
on the mineral. The Barker experiment works best (only) with minerals like
pitchblende. There is no or little effect with pure metals. Thinking back on
it now, this is actually consistent with the Casimir/time-distortion
modality - since the mineral, as opposed to a bulk metal, could be
effectively creating a grid of interlocking ceramic Casimir cavities,
especially when high electrostatic voltage is applied.

Stephen,
Horace did hit home regarding your questions that I never answered.
I am starting to pick up the lingo from ongoing threads and citations but
the math is still a struggle for me but let me take a swing at some of your
questions with what I have learned...

[Snip]
If tau is the local time for a tiny observer located inside the cavity,
and t is time for an external observer, what's dt/dtau?

[Reply]
External t is 1 second per second
Internal tau has at least 137 states where dt/dtau varies from 1 to infinity
approaching C or instantaneous from our perspective   
-
[Snip]
And why should it be anything other than 1?

[Reply]
The change in ratio of short wavelength vacuum fluctuations to long due to
"up conversion" doesn't have to be due to exclusion of long flux wavelength
and replacement by shorter wavelength fluctuations, The relativistic
solution Jan Naudts introduced in a 2005 paper "On the hydrino state of the
relativistic hydrogen atom"  http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0507193v2 
 which contends that the sub zero state argument overlooks relativistic
effect inside Casimir cavities. I am applying Naudts' logic to the
interpretation of "up-conversion" and positing that the same long wavelength
flux can appear to be short flux if the plates induce a relativistic effect.
Call it Lorentz contraction or twisting on the temporal axis or as Jones
pointed out the imaginary axis described by Hotson's paper on Dirac
Equation-Sea of Negative Energy, the point is the same that space-time is
distributed differently inside a Casimir cavity and tau has a different rate
than t.


[Snip]
I have no idea what you mean by "longer flux twisted on the time axis";
I have no idea what it means to twist something on the time axis.  Could
you show the transform you have in mind?

For example, for the Lorentz transform, with c=1 and g=dt/dtau, and
motion along the x axis, we have

 | tau |   |   g -vg  0  0 |
 | x'  |   | -vg   g  0  0 |
 | y'  | = |   0   0  1  0 |
 | z'  |   |   0   0  0  1 |

unless I typed it in wrong.  That's a hyperbolic rotation, of course,
but it doesn't sound like you have that in mind, and in any case it is
the unity transform unless the frames are in motion with respect to each
other.  In the present case, the frames are stationary with respect to
each other, and the Lorentz transform is just I.

So, what transform are you proposing using, and how are you proposing
applying it in order to obtain something other than dt/dtau=1 in this case?

[Reply]
I will review the Lorentz transform and get back to you on this one as the
matrix you supply is a struggle for me. I gather it is a 4D coordinate
system where Y and Z are stationary relative to each other while X and tau
are accelerating at time rate g instead of 1 but but need to investigate
what v, and c represent.

How can you have a temporal vector at some angle above horizontal?  That
seems to mix space and time measures in a way that doesn't make a lot of
apparent sense; perhaps you need to define some terms here.  What's a
"temporal vector"?

[Reply]
I collapsed XYZ space onto the horizontal axis and assigned time to the Y
axis where past is down and future is up such that all temporal vectors must
be somewhere between 0 and 90 with our standard value far displaced from C
at 90 degrees which is why I arbitrarily chose a low value of 10 degrees and
would put an object approaching an event horizon up around 85 degrees.

How do you accelerate along the temporal axis?  What does that mean?

Do you mean dt/dtau is an increasing function of ... what, exactly?
What do you use for a time base to measure acceleration along the time axis?

[Reply]
To accelerate along the time axis is relativistic -if 2 stationary objects
in 3D have different temporal accelerations the objects will get smaller
relative to the observer. The tiny observer inside the cavity will see the
outside world get smaller and likewise the external observer will see the
object inside the cavity get smaller. They both see temporal displacement as
distance but the arm that reaches down into the cavity is equally distorted
shrinking along the path such that if you closed your eyes and imagined
everything full scale you could easily grab a

Stephen,
I reviewed Lorentz transforms in order to answer your last
remaining question. Now that I understand what you were asking I
realized the assumption that the frames are stationary to each other and
the Lorentz factor is 1 is where I lost you. I am positing that outside
the cavity has equivalent motion compared to the shielded exclusion zone
created inside the Casimir cavity. I am proposing the change in the
ratio of short to long wavelength vacuum fluctuations caused by
up-conversion in a Casimir cavity is evidence of acceleration through
equivalence. The observer inside the cavity sees us curved down gravity
well in the same way we perceive matter approaching an event horizon
down a still deeper well. I am not talking planetary gravity wells here
but rather a default time stream of 1 second per second every observer
experiences from his or her frame. I am suggesting a delta can be
manufactured via Casimir cavities that reduces that stream down to a
still harbor inside the cavity and causes a very abrupt change in space
time with the plates creating a boundary. I don't believe in fractional
quantum state atoms from a 4D perspective and suggest the math is only
solving for the spatial units while the Bohr radius is being maintained
through Lorentz contraction. A relativistic solution as both Naudts and
Bourgoin have suggested.

The snip you provide seems irrelevant to the issue at hand.   The  
space between conductive plates having certain wavelengths excluded  
therein is analogous to the space beyond the glass on the side  
opposed to the light source also having certain wavelengths excluded  
from it.  A lower frequency portion of a spectrum  is excluded in  
both cases. The analogy holds especially well with regards to the  
most relevant fact that in neither case is any frequency or energy  
"up-converted".  Some frequencies from a broad spectrum are merely  
excluded in both cases.  No frequencies are changed.   Energy is only  
excluded, not transformed.  The term "up-converted" then merely  
creates confusion.  It draws an unnecessary cloak of complexity, or  
possibly just confusion, over something readily taught and understood  
in 8th grade science class.


The Casimir effect is not a force that interacts with the zero point  
field.  It is a result of the action of the zero point field on  
matter, its isotropic nature, and its cubic energy distribution.  It  
is also notable that the Casimir force does not require conductive  
surfaces to manifest, but that is a side issue, irrelevant in this  
case and certainly not an issue that breaks the analogy at hand.


If you have any credible reference that says zero point field  
frequency or energy is actually up-converted by or within Casimir  
cavities then will you please provide it?


A bit outside the scope of all this is the fact the zero point field  
may not exist at all.  The Casimir force could just be the result of  
van der Walls forces, which are not thought by everyone to be a  
result of the zero point field.  It is merely a hypothesis.

To build on the above premise for my own theory of how energy is  
extracted from these fractional state hydrogen atoms in a cavity or  
catalyst,  I assume a relativistic solution for fractional quantum  
states inspired by Jan Naudts paper (5 August 2005). "On the  
hydrino state of the relativistic hydrogen atom". First however I  
must digress, The twin travelling near C would perceive the other  
twin and all physical properties back on earth as occurring at a  
rate of multiple seconds per second. Additionally Lorentz  
contraction of objects travelling at significant fractions of light  
speed causes the objects observed by the travelling twin to appear  
smaller (actually both twins would observe contraction as the  
effect is due to "distance" on the time axis). Fractional quantum  
state hydrogen exhibits increased reaction rate and contraction and  
is based on relativistic math suggesting something similar to an  
event horizon should be expected. The argument becomes whether a  
Casimir cavity can create "equivalence"  where inside the cavity  
becomes a protected harbor that views outside the cavity just as we  
view an event horizon.

 The premise IS my theory that a Casimir cavity stretches space-time

2.  Prevenslik 
work replicating Casimir effect through "up-conversion" indicates nature has
method to convert IR >> VUV via conservation of energy. I posit this method
is relativistic based on 1 above and therefore all frequencies (entire
spectrum including virtual photons) only "appear" up-converted from our
perspective.

3.  Christian Beck papers, Measureability

energy relating virtual photons below 1.7Thz more gravitationally active
than those above. I posit the ratio of virtual particles above and below
1.7Thz CHANGES approaching event horizon to reflect Beck's theory the larger
virtual photons are more gravitationally active.

4.  I postulate therefore the "up-conversion" in a Casimir cavity is
relativistic, perceived outside the cavity as full spectrum, but the change
in ratio of virtual photon frequencies is in the opposite direction creating
a gravity "Hill" or lack of gravitationally active virtual photons as
opposed to a gravity "Well".

[Reply] 

You are correct; I missed a step, I associated the hydrino with the cavity
based on Mills' claims of producing the hydrino inside Rayney Nickel
catalyst which meet Casimir geometry. Although BLP is claimed to have exotic
hydrides formed from hydrinos

In their labs, AFAIK no one has ever produced a hydrino outside of a cavity.
My premise is that the hydrino is relativistic hydrogen and therefore can
only be perceived from another time frame such as a deep gravity well or as
I propose to coin a term, inside a Casimir "gravity hill". Mills was able to
"deliver" hydrinos to Rowan Univercity only as hydrogen in situ within the
pores of Rayney nickel and the translation would only occur to atoms after
disassociation.

 

 

[snip]

the computation does not involve motion of the atom with regards to the
observer. It has only to do with the change in mass of the electron, m =
gamma*m0, due to relativistic (high energy) circular motion of orbitals.
Saying "that hydrino can exist in a cavity only has a relativistic
solution."  Is like saying "that lead (Pb) can exist in a cavity only has a
relativistic solution."  The cavity is irrelevant to the cited  

references.

 

[Reply] 

Pb is not a fractional state element like the hydrino but ok your point is I
haven't proved that a Casimir cavity changes the relativistic solution for
ground state of anything.  Below I appended the premise to include Mills
part in the story and remove any assignment of "cavity" property to Naudts
or Bourgoin.

 

 

  Casimir cavities stretch space-time into a "gravity Hill" as opposed to a
" gravity Well" based on the following.

 

1.  Mills' claim hydrino formed inside skeletal catalyst Rayney nickel has
up to 137 fractional quantum states.

2.  Naudts   and Bourgoin
  math that these fractional states can exist as a relativistic solution

 

3.   I propose the orbital can collapse spatially below Bohr radius because
the "displacement" to the nucleus has been partially converted to temporal
units. The fractional quantum radius only exists from our 3D perspective
outside the cavity observing the hydrino inside.

 

4.  Prevenslik 
work replicating Casimir effect through "up-conversion" indicates nature has
method to convert IR >> VUV via conservation of energy. I posit this method
is relativistic based on 2 -3  above and therefore all frequencies (entire
spectrum including virtual photons) only "appear" up-converted from our
perspective.



5.  Christian Beck papers, Measureability of vacuum
  fluctuations and dark energy and
[3] Electromagnetic   dark energy
relating virtual photons below 1.7Thz more gravitationally active than those
above. I posit the ratio of virtual particles above and below 1.7Thz CHANGES
approaching event horizon to reflect Beck's theory the larger virtual
photons are more gravitationally active.



6.I postulate therefore the "up-conversion" in a Casimir cavity is
relativistic, perceived outside the cavity as full spectrum, but the change
in ratio of virtual photon frequencies is in the opposite direction creating
a gravity "Hill" or lack of gravitationally active virtual photons as

Horace,

  I added the following paragraph to my theory after discovering a
paper describing a Casimir cavity created equivalence.

 

The theory that Casimir cavities represent an abrupt equivalence
boundary is not new, In 2002 a paper "Vacuum fluctuation force on a
rigid Casimir cavity in a gravitational field
<http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0109091> "  by Italian researchers Enrico
Calloni, Luciano Di Fiore, Giampiero Esposito, Leopoldo Milano, Luigi
Rosa discusses the possibility of verifying the equivalence principle
for the zero-point energy of quantum electrodynamics, by evaluating the
force, produced by vacuum fluctuations, acting on a rigid Casimir cavity
in a weak gravitational field. The resulting force has opposite
direction with respect to the gravitational acceleration, Their proposal
indicates equivalent acceleration outside the cavity relative to inside
the cavity. This differential between inside and outside the cavity
creates the relativistic perception of frequency up conversion. From the
perspective of the Beck - Mackey work, the ratio of fast to slow virtual
photons appears to increase and has fewer gravitationally active virtual
photons. One could also simply consider this duty factor -if time inside
the cavity executes at multiple seconds per second from our perspective
then the earths gravity at 9.8m/s^2 is divided down by the same factor.

This is a good example of the problem with imprecise communication.  
When you say particle people think in terms of electrons, protons,  
quarks, etc. These things do have wavelengths, but the concept of a  
zero point field spectrum for them is uncommon to say the least.  
Virtual photons, OTOH, have both a particle and wave characteristics  
just like hadrons, leptons, etc, but their ubiquitous and dense  
nature, as well as their very wave-like nature, lends itself to  
discussion of the energy spectrum of the zero point field.   
Technically, virtual photons can be called "vacuum fluctuations".   
However, I think they are actually more the *cause* of vacuum pair  
production, as they provide the virtual pair creation energy. In any  
case, the zero point field (ZPF) consists of a huge isotropic energy  
flow of virtual photons having a cubic energy distribution.  I think  
it is appropriate to call the ZPF a field because it consists of the  
messenger particles (now an appropriate use of "particle" due to the  
implied Feynman diagram concepts) which comprise the electromagnetic  
field, at least the near field.




last long enough to actually be detected it is no longer
virtual!


Again, that is a reference to particle pair production. Virtual  
particle pairs are limited to their Heisenberg lifetime.  To survive  
longer they must be given enough energy to create their mass.





What is consensus here? Is it just the infinite sea of vacuum
fluctuations they object to



No. However the Casimir force is limited to virtual photon effects,  
or in other models, van der Waals force effects.  It is not due to  
vacuum fluctuations in general, at least I've never seen anyone  
attribute the effect to that.




and they are ok with virtual particles

One problem here is that vocabulary can mean different things  
depending on the context. Sometimes when you use a word you have to  
define the context in which it is used. For example, within some  
contexts (GR) gravity is a result of space-time curvature, so there  
is no gravity messenger particle, while within some theories, virtual  
photon pressure accounts for gravity, and others gravity is a true  
force, with its own messenger - the graviton. You have to be very  
clear about the context in which you speak when you say something  
affects "gravity", or vice versa.

The Casimir force is about virtual photons according to all I've  
read. It has nothing to do with particle pair creation, which by  
comparison is extremely rare.

This is a good example of the problem with imprecise communication.  
When you say particle people think in terms of electrons, protons,  
quarks, etc. These things do have wavelengths, but the concept of a  
zero point field spectrum for them is uncommon to say the least.  
Virtual photons, OTOH, have both a particle and wave characteristics  
just like hadrons, leptons, etc, but their ubiquitous and dense  
nature, as well as their very wave-like nature, lends itself to  
discussion of the energy spectrum of the zero point field.   
Technically, virtual photons can be called "vacuum fluctuations".   
However, I think they are actually more the *cause* of vacuum pair  
production, as they provide the virtual pair creation energy. In any  
case, the zero point field (ZPF) consists of a huge isotropic energy  
flow of virtual photons having a cubic energy distribution.  I think  
it is appropriate to call the ZPF a field because it consists of the  
messenger particles (now an appropriate use of "particle" due to the  
implied Feynman diagram concepts) which comprise the electromagnetic  
field, at least the near field.


> last long enough to actually be detected it is no longer
> virtual!

Again, that is a reference to particle pair production. Virtual  
particle pairs are limited to their Heisenberg lifetime.  To survive  
longer they must be given enough energy to create their mass.



> What is consensus here? Is it just the infinite sea of vacuum
> fluctuations they object to


No. However the Casimir force is limited to virtual photon effects,  
or in other models, van der Waals force effects.  It is not due to  
vacuum fluctuations in general, at least I've never seen anyone  
attribute the effect to that.

One problem here is that vocabulary can mean different things  
depending on the context. Sometimes when you use a word you have to  
define the context in which it is used. For example, within some  
contexts (GR) gravity is a result of space-time curvature, so there  
is no gravity messenger particle, while within some theories, virtual  
photon pressure accounts for gravity, and others gravity is a true  
force, with its own messenger - the graviton. You have to be very  
clear about the context in which you speak when you say something  
affects "gravity", or vice versa.

This is not exactly in the context of this thread, but I stumbled across a
25 year old paper by one of our favorite visionaries - Robert Forward (well
named) and it could be updated, based on new research:

 

http://prola.aps.org/abstract/PRB/v30/i4/p1700_1

 

"A pair of conducting plates at close distances experience an attractive
Casimir force that is due to the electromagnetic zero-point fluctuations of
the vacuum. A "vacuum-fluctuation battery" can be constructed by using the
Casimir force to do work on a stack of charged conducting plates. By
applying a charge of the same polarity to each conducting plate, a repulsive
electrostatic force will be produced that opposes the Casimir force. If the
applied electrostatic force is adjusted to be always slightly less than the
Casimir force, the plates will move toward each other and the Casimir force
will add energy to the electric field between the plates. The battery can be
recharged by making the electrical forces slightly stronger than the Casimir
force to reexpand the foliated conductor."

 

Ostensibly this kind of cap-batt would work at very high frequency -
terahertz and up . but course, for there to be a net gain, the recharging
cycle (if it is not deducted from the "added energy" itself) must be lower
in expenditure than the extraction cycle. yet this experiment is something
that probably could be accomplished today with MEMS techniques, at least in
silicon valley and elsewhere. It would be almost meaningless to opine how it
would turn out without actually doing it.

Horace,

I agree and can't believe they didn't pursue it further. They
basically built a tiny time machine - a very local little  source of
equivalent acceleration  with an abrupt boundary and didn't consider what
would happen if a reactant such as a gas atom were diffused through it.
Equivalence is accumulative in the Twin paradox and should be here also. It
could explain the fractional quantum states as relativistic -Lorentz
contraction while from the hydrogen's perspective nothing has changed..
Everybody is right? The Bohr radius is both fractional state and not
fractional  state depending on your perspective.

I notice the title and contents don't seem to match.  I wonder if  
Forward proposed a free energy scheme and the referees made him  
remove it.


This might be modeled using finite element analysis before proceeding  
to experiments. I noted earlier that Mostepanenenko and Sokolov  
provide that the van der Waals retarding interaction U(r) at distance  
r between two individual atoms with electric and magnetic  
polarizabilites a1E, a2E, a1M, and a2M, is:


   U(r) = C/r^7

where:

   C = (-23/Pi) ( (a1E a2E)(a1M a2M) + a1M a2M) + (7/(4 PI)) ((a1E  
a2M) + (a2E a1M))


There are also corrections that have to be made to the above for  
surface roughness, temperature, metal conductivity, and surface  
charge. Even with all that, these are not precision modeling tools.
Without COP of more than 20% by simulation there is probably not much  
to stand on for getting funding for free energy research along those  
lines.

RE: [Vo]:Hydrino represents Lorentz contraction in the opposite direction from event horizon

2009-08-19 Thread Frank
Horace,

I do realize that the force is inconsequential but please
consider two things, first it results in equivalence which is a constant
acceleration and just like an ion drive can eventually produce huge
velocities, second the hydrogen's spatial motion relative to an observer
outside the cavity is almost stationary suggesting that practically all
accumulated velocity is on the time axis.

 

My concept is that Bourgoins variables  XYZt  are correctly
solving for fractional quantum states but "t"  inside the cavity is
experiencing equivalence and slowly accelerating away from the 1 second per
second rate an observer outside the cavity experiences. The fractional
states are more than just a 3D illusion; the hydrogen atom is traveling away
from us on the time axis. I am trying to say put Lorentz contraction in
terms of volume and absolute dt of the cavity inside vs outside as it will
contract in either direction.

Michael,
That was a very early thread and I do understand the basic premise of a 
4D array, distance as an absolute on the time axis and how two spatially  
adjacent stationary objects can be accelerating away from each other temporally 
if an equivalence boundary is established -normally this requires astronomical 
distances and a gravity well but I am saying certain types of conductive 
bonding when configured in plate geometry can concentrate a depletion zone that 
sees outside the zone as equivalent acceleration just like we see an event 
horizon. Although the force levels they mention, 10^-17N, seems inconsequential 
it results in a constant acceleration just like an ion drive which can 
eventually produce huge velocities, It also allows for the force to increase 
exponentially as fractional quantum states contract the atom to down to 
permeate increasingly smaller geometry, In fact most current investigations of 
hydrino, LENR and Casimir - Lamb shift effects all confirm the need for 
monatomic hydrogen to produce excess heat.
