When it’s finally built, ITER will be the world’s biggest experimental
tokamak nuclear fusion reactor—and probably our best chance to date for
making nuclear fusion work. But engineers are currently toiling with
building the damn thing and its magnets are proving to be a challenge.

In building a Shawyer EM Drive cavity copper is typically used but Shawyer
notes a higher Q would result with silver. Would a cavity that was made of
copper sheet then electroplated with silver suffice to give the cavity the Q of
silver? Is there any potential for improved Q based on the design

You propose a massive amount of energy per reaction. Under the
circumstances, that level seems too energetic; but it is difficult to rule
out f/H in some capacity.
A three-body reaction would be unlikely based on probability. Fusion seems

Yes – I hope Bob will clear this up. The fact that the 64Ni data appear in

The relevant Sochi data is the chart on slide 13.
You can see what happened - the chart is logarithmic and the writer of paper
apparently did not notice that.
Thus - a very substantial change took place - a drop in the ending ratio of
64Ni of almost half, compared to the starting - PLUS a

Of course the EM drive ship that remains in this extreme case(actually nothing
at all if zero exhaust is present) is at rest which means it has zero kinetic
energy relative to itself. Again, this is not a problem for a normal rocket
that spits out reaction mass. In that case all the missing ma

Higgins’s thoughts are the same as mine. I think it’s an uncorrected mistake.
Greenyer should ask Parkhomov to resolve the issue.
If the data in the graph is correct and there were no Ni-64 enrichment, the

Hi,
If we take the table at face value, then most of the missing 64Ni ended up as
58Ni & 60Ni.
Consider the following reactions:-
Hy2 + 64Ni => 62Ni + 4He + 11.8 MeV
Hy2 + 62Ni => 60Ni + 4He + 9.88 MeV
Hy2 + 60Ni => 58Ni + 4H
I still consider that the transition to a more stable isotope is via an
anharmonic coupling that responds to local hydrogen loading in the Ni
lattice, magnetic fields and spin coupling to a zillion electron in the nano
particle, and thermal motion in preferred direction associated with the
