If the waste is identical to the fuel, that means no reaction involving it actually occurred, by definition. The material is at best merely a catalyst for a reaction with other fuel and waste.

From Jay: Axil, please continue posting, your comments are appreciated. I second that. As I understand, this forum exists only for sharing information and ideas; personal comments should not be posted nor ever considered. Actually... keep in mind that Personal comments are often posted here. Personal comments are not what is at issue. There is a big difference between posting personal comments versus commentary meant to deride the character of other vort participants. Mr. Beaty has written a few personal definitions on posting behavior: See: http://amasci.com/weird/wvort.html Of particular note are the following technical definitions: ** The Vortex-L list was originally created for discussions of professional research into fluid vortex/cavitation devices which exhibit anomalous energy effects (ie: the inventions of Schaeffer, Huffman, Griggs, and Potapov among others.) Currently it has evolved into a discussion on taboo physics reports and research. SKEPTICS BEWARE, the topics wander from Cold Fusion, to reports of excess energy in Free Energy devices, gravity generation and detection, reports of theoretically impossible phenomena, and all sorts of supposedly crackpot claims.

Not only is avant-garde scientific material discussed here, antidotes of a personal nature have often expressed here as well.

The hydrogen never reaches stellar temperatures and even appears to condense into forms that in some cases are even refered to as ice But I think this is a misnomer. If temp is based on motion/unit time then the number of reactions performed by reactants in a skeletal catalyst would qualify as very hot not cold but if Naudts is correct about a relativistic hydrino then this paradox is understandable. The Motion of the hydrino has very little spatial displacement because Casimir confinement approaches 2d from our perspective -The full spectrum of vacuum flux appears suppressed from our perspective but IMHO based on Naudt's paper the vacuum flux remain full spectrum inside the cavity by shifting the inertial frame dramatically - the Time dimension is always enlarged such that a local observer experiences the full spectrum of vacuum wavelengths - the present Casimir formula that describes longer wavelengths as being displaced has to be wrong for SR to apply to the hydrino. My point is the hydrino only appears flat and small from our perspective while between the plates the walls appear to shrink away and these gas atoms truly see time as a spatial direction - better explaining their ability to load and unload gases without pressure as they Seem to become smaller and smaller from our perspective. The point is the number of reactions these atoms accomplish while displaced on the time axis is only limited by how close to a perfect 90 degrees their time axis remains WRT our time axis outside the cavity. Even though They never reach a stellar environment from their own perspective there has to be some amount of energy balance involved in the translation When these gas populations return from the cavity having spent untold years from their perspectives bonding and disassociating back to our environment outside the cavity where only moments have elapsed. We cant observe the age of a hydrogen atom but the claims about radioactive half lives being accelerated seems to support the idea of a relativistic hydrino and therefore a relativistic interpretation of Casimir effect. I think LENR may be a relativistic energy balancing when a very large number of reactions that are occurring in a very negatively accelerated inertial frame translates back and forth between the small spatial volume of the cavity mouth in our inertial frame. I think the change in 1/d^3 from the Casimir formula relates to change in velocity v^2/C^2 from the gamma formula to resolve into equivalent acceleration - gravity inside the cavity - a very turbulent AC gravity or jerk that establishes a kind of QM blender to make what Jones refers to as a Quark soup - particularly in the zones where the 1/d^3 reaches it maximum the conflicting forces could tear apart the atom into it's sub atomic components.

RE: [Vo]:About isotopic ratio on spent fuel (E-Cat)
Fran, * Harry, I think it is more a matter of proving how the Casimir environment is equivalent to the stellar environment. Which stellar environment? There are literally trillions of different stellar environments, all of them unique because the mass of the predecessor star is unique, but there is only one Casimir force. Are you suggesting that the Casimir force is different on every single planet? I think not. Or that on earth, this force somehow knows what the stellar environment was billions of years ago when the isotope balance was frozen into place, and can now match it? I find that preposterous. Each of these stars can have drastically different isotope balance, following a Nova. We know this as fact - because we occasionally find meteorites that come from different systems, or even from different time frames in the Nova that preceded earth. The isotope balances are vastly different. For instance, this was what Luis Alvarez used to pinpoint the cause of the last mass extinction. He found evidence of lots of iridium - and element that is extremely rare on earth, but it is found at massively increased levels (1000 times more) in the so-called K-T boundary layer. To imagine that LENR can operate to transmute elements in a way that matches exactly one of trillions of stellar events, and that it also is the exact match for the planet where the LENR occurs .

Re: [Vo]:About isotopic ratio on spent fuel (E-Cat)
Another factor might be the lapse of time from when the sample is active to when it was analysed.Perhaps the difference from the natural isotopic abundance only persists for a limited period of time once the reactor is switched off. Subsequent decay processes eventually give the sample a natural isotopic abundance. I have no idea if this is possible, but it would account for the difference between the Italian and Swedish measurements of isotopic abundance. Harry

This should lend credence to the claim that the Rossi reaction is real and that it is a valid Lenr Reaction. Others have already pointed this out, but in every case so far, LENR transmuted elements have unnatural abundance. The abundance ratios are the same as those of the starting element. See Iwamura. That has been the rule for Pd-D and other deuterium systems. It is at least conceivable that H systems work differently, functioning as a microscopic supernova, producing elements with natural isotopic ratios. Jones Beene said that different supernova produce elements with different ratios. That is not my understanding. I believe the ratio at creation is the same throughout the universe. Different isotope ratios exist within the solar system, especially for light elements, such as the ratio of D to H on Mars, but that is not because the material that makes up Mars came from a different supernova than earth. I note there are studies of things like Interstellar isotope ratios from mm-wave molecular absorption spectra where the ratios are for heavy elements such C, N and S. If the ratios varied considerably at creation, more or less at random, I do not see how studies could reach a conclusion. This study found ratios the same as in the solar system, except C-13. The authors propose a reason for the discrepancy: fractionation. It wasn't that way at creation. If creation varied by supernova, the numbers would be all over the place I suppose. - Jed

What you say means NO reliable measurements can be made. Take please a look at the Web for *Ni isotope measurements*. Inductively coupled mass spectrometry is very performant, even the small variations in natural abundance of the Ni isotopes can be measured and evaluated. If you wish I can found you an analytical lab relatively near to Atlanta and you could ask them about precision and price both for Ni and Cu.

Nickel certainly can provide a good matrix in which protons fuse into deuterium. This seems to be the only conceivable way that the metal can maintain a natural distribution, and yet participate in the large amount of gain (in a non-nuclear way). If there is anything nuclear, and the metal isotope distribution is natural - then it is almost a guarantee that it must involve only hydrogen, no metal. This conclusion is falsifiable.
Re: [Vo]:About isotopic ratio on spent fuel (E-Cat)
Thank you for your insight. “If there is anything nuclear, and the metal isotope distribution is natural – then it is almost a guarantee that it must involve only hydrogen, no metal.” This is probable true. Would it not be ironic that the fusion/fission of just hydrogen produces nickel and copper without nickel entering into the reaction in any way, contray to what Rossi thinks? I am surprised that you are not well versed in the work of the LENR team: Dr H. Hora, and Dr. G.H. Miley. From a large volume of LENR experimental results, Dr Miley has developed a theory of LENR transmutation that predicts this natural abundance of isotopes around the magic atomic numbers of 2, 6, 14, 28, 50, 82, 126… Now, 28 is the atomic number of nickel, and the fission of the super atom formed during the fusion of many atoms will result in an array of elements that cluster around peaks defined by these magic numbers: 2 – helium 6 – carbon 14 – silicon 28 – nickel There will be many transmutation events producing nickel whose atomic number (A) is 28, but also some lesser amounts producing copper (A = 29) and even less zinc (A = 30). On the other side of the Boltzmann quark distribution described by the expression N(Z) = N’ exp (-Z/Z’) where Z’ = 10. You get more cobalt (A = 27) and even less Iron (A = 26). All these elements have been seen is Rossi ash. Around the lower order magic numbers carbon (A = 6) and silicon(A = 14) are clustered the following elements: 8 - Oxygen 9 - Fluorine(captured to form fluorides) 10 - Neon (outgased ?) 11 - Sodium 12 - Magnesium 13- Silicon (mentioned as ash) 14 - Phosphorus 15 – Sulfur (mentioned as ash) 16 – Chlorine (mentioned as ash) 17 – Argon (outgased ?) 18 – Potassium (mentioned as ash) 19 – Calcium (mentioned as ash) A further consequence of the LENR evaluation leads to the ratios R (n) (n = 1, 2, 3…) of the Boltzmann probabilities, namely R (n) = 3n. This suggests a threefold property of stable configurations at magic numbers in nuclei, consistent with a quark property. It is as if a large amount of hydrogen atoms form into a cold plasma go into a quantum mechanical blender and turned into a coherent quark soup. In an instant, when the quark soup fissions, this LENR process produces atoms whose isotopic character is the same as exists in nature. This is to be expected since the inherent properties of quarks define what comes out of the fission process.

I am surprised that you are not well versed in the work of the LENR team: Dr H. Hora, and Dr. G.H. Miley. From a large volume of LENR experimental results, Dr Miley has developed a theory of LENR transmutation that predicts this natural abundance of isotopes around the magic atomic numbers of 2, 6, 14, 28, 50, 82, 126. Now, 28 is the atomic number of nickel, and the fission of the super atom formed during the fusion of many atoms will result in an array of elements that cluster around peaks defined by these magic numbers: 2 - helium 6 - carbon 14 - silicon 28 - nickel There will be many transmutation events producing nickel whose atomic number (A) is 28, but also some lesser amounts producing copper (A = 29) and even less zinc (A = 30). On the other side of the Boltzmann quark distribution described by the expression N(Z) = N' exp (-Z/Z') where Z' = 10. You get more cobalt (A = 27) and even less Iron (A = 26). All these elements have been seen is Rossi ash. Around the lower order magic numbers carbon (A = 6) and silicon(A = 14) are clustered the following elements: 8 - Oxygen 9 - Fluorine(captured to form fluorides) 10 - Neon (outgased ?) 11 - Sodium 12 - Magnesium 13- Silicon (mentioned as ash) 14 - Phosphorus 15 - Sulfur (mentioned as ash) 16 - Chlorine (mentioned as ash) 17 - Argon (outgased ?) 18 - Potassium (mentioned as ash) 19 - Calcium (mentioned as ash) A further consequence of the LENR evaluation leads to the ratios R (n) (n = 1, 2, 3.) of the Boltzmann probabilities, namely R (n) = 3n. This suggests a threefold property of stable configurations at magic numbers in nuclei, consistent with a quark property. It is as if a large amount of hydrogen atoms form into a cold plasma go into a quantum mechanical blender and turned into a coherent quark soup.

Re: [Vo]:About isotopic ratio on spent fuel (E-Cat)
As per my last post, helium is produced in large amounts because it is one of the magic number elements. But the fusion of helium is not required for the formation of the other elements in the Rossi ash. IMHO, at the current time, the catalytic interaction at the surface interfaces of a heterogeneous admixture of iron and nickel nano-particles produces a fusion/fission reaction of only hydrogen resulting in the isotopic ash distribution seen in the Rossi ash product.

It is very likely the threshold temperature and control loop are intended to turn the hydrogen gas into a bond state oscillator where h2 keeps getting disassociated then cooled back down to reform h2 and emit energy over and over again. your blender? The threshold level is discounted by the nickel geometry creating a tapestry of different vacuum energy densities as the atoms appear to shrink down between ever smaller geometries. I think these small atoms reflect normal catalytic action amplified by Casimir geometry and the relativistic nature Naudts suggested for the hydrino actually applies to any reactants in a catalyst. My point is the energy density suppression between Casimir boundaries accelerates time from our perspective exactly like the increased energy density of a stellar mass slows time from our perspective. The slow gradient of changes in energy density at our scale are not mirrored by the abrupt changes provided by nature in the surfaces of Casimir cavities, As an atom seems to shrink into ever smaller Casimir confinement these dramatic changes in energy density are equivalent to changes in velocity on the spatial axis - what we see as time dilation appears to these gas atoms like open space and random accelerations that keep pumping more and more gas, deeper and deeper into this relativistic plane with your blender/bond state oscillator.

Our sun is a second (or third) generation star.

These influenced that prior Nova, and determined precisely what we see today as unique isotope ratios in our (local) system among trillions of other unique systems. All of them are different locally. However, physical nuclear reactions are supposed to be universal, not local.

Re: [Vo]:About isotopic ratio on spent fuel (E-Cat)
The scam status of the Rossi reactor has nothing to do with natural abundance in Lenr reactions. It has been shown that all Lenr reactions produce waste conformant to natural abundance. Like all Lenr reactions, the Rossi reactor show natural abundance in it’s ash product. This should lend credence to the claim that the Rossi reaction is real and that it is a valid Lenr Reaction.
