Re: [Vo]:Yet Another LENR "Miracle": Evolution Didn't Find It

It may have been that LENR is too complex for biology to have taken advantage of it. Also it may have caused DNA damage too difficult to overcome for biological systems. Either way, the fact that it is not widespread is accepted, but arguing from that fact that biological systems should be one wa

Re: [Vo]:Yet Another LENR "Miracle": Evolution Didn't Find It

I'm saying that the process of energy release requires many quanta, each with a small energy, to be released during the fusion process. These photons have too little energy for many to leave the apparatus. Heat is generated as they are absorbed by the material. This condition is basic to t

Re: [Vo]:Yet Another LENR "Miracle": Evolution Didn't Find It

So if I understand your argument correctly, even though the detected energy flux of high energy photons/particles has been minuscule compared to the total energy measured from LENR experiments, it is still enough to account for substantial biological disruption at the scales of metabolic energy nec

We don't even know if the biological transmutation of elements has a COP > 1. We aren't even positive if the biological transmutation of elements is even real, but I believe that it is. On Sun, Jun 9, 2013 at 6:21 PM, James Bowery wrote: > Material strengths are measured in units of the physic

Re: [Vo]:Yet Another LENR "Miracle": Evolution Didn't Find It

Material strengths are measured in units of the physical dimension pressure. All evolution would have to do is concentrate nano-scale materials of the right strength and composition. That seems plausible as, for example, magnetite crystals have been found widely in organisms

Re: [Vo]:Yet Another LENR "Miracle": Evolution Didn't Find It

The LENR energy source has a down side. It is not a source of free energy to a biological system. The emitted radiation would be obviously harmful. Consequently, the source would be only employed when this is the only way to avoid death. Fortunately, evolution has found better ways to get e

Re: [Vo]:Yet Another LENR "Miracle": Evolution Didn't Find It

It may be a matter of pressure. I would look at the bugs near thermal heat vents at the bottom of the ocean or deep underground when the temperature exceeds boiling for adaptation to LENR. On Sun, Jun 9, 2013 at 6:15 PM, James Bowery wrote: > The subject say it all, really: 'Yet Another LENR "
