Jones,
 A Heisenberg trap does not HAVE to be much smaller than a Casimir cavity. The 
random motion of gas is a macro example of HUP and any mechanism that can 
derive energy from this random motion would be considered a Heisenberg trap. 
The use of changing Casimir geometry to oppose the migration of H2 is not an 
energy source. It is the random motion of gas based on HUP which supplies the 
energy that is disassociating or at very least discounting the thermal energy 
required to disassociate gas molecules that makes the "system" a Heisenberg 
trap, AKA Maxwell's demon, It would be far less energetic than the nuclear trap 
mentioned by Horace but due to natures desire to fall back to the lowest energy 
state H2 it forms an endlessly reversible chemical reaction between h1 and h2 
for as long as the gas is surrounded by a lattice with changes in Casimir 
geometry.

Very interesting comments Horace, especially:

"A clue to the truth of this, and to the fact that uncertainty energy is 
extractable, is the fact Sandia surprisingly obtained over-unity shots when 
using helium to test the Z-machine."

Do you have a citation for that? I wasn't aware of this detail.

Although a Heisenberg trap is presumably much smaller than a Casimir cavity, 
there are several ways this could be applicable, or the two could be 
interrelated.

I think the Rossi device has implications that could go a long way towards 
improving hot fusion devices, perhaps even the Z-machine.

This would be in the sense that Miley has been suggesting for a couple of years 
not - dense deuterium as the ideal ICF target.

This assumes the Rossi device gets the gain from dense deuterium - and that 
assumption comes from the Raney, and the Casimir cavities, so the reasoning is 
a bit circular. Rossi admits he has no clue.

From: Horace Heffner


The Casimir effect is significant in the binding potential of the deflated 
state, and thus in elongating the duration of the state pre-fusion, though the 
net energy imparted by the Casimir effect is zero, by symmetry.   A nuclear 
Casimir effect is also extremely significant in binding hadrons together in a 
nucleus. Yes, the Casimir effect is not a major player in creating (nuclear) 
heat, but uncertainty energy due to the ZPF is. See:

http://mtaonline.net/~hheffner/NuclearZPEtapping.pdf

A clue to the truth of this, and to the fact that uncertainty energy is 
extractable, is the fact Sandia surprisingly obtained over-unity shots when 
using helium to test the Z-machine.

Even if Rossi and BLP and all the other cold fusion efforts, and hot fusion 
efforts like ITER, turn out to not be commercially viable, I think Sandia's 
ambitious z-pinch program will produce a viable energy technology, and within a 
few years.   For general info see:

http://www.sandia.gov/z-machine/

I think it is wise to not over commit to the Rossi technology being both real 
and useful until an actual MW producing plant is built and functioning long 
term.  If this is a hoax it will of course set cold fusion research financing 
back years, and the pie will be in our faces.

Best regards,

Ironic in a way, Fran ... (that you would hold back your enthusiasm now) but 
yes, the possibility of a 'very elaborate scam' involving dozens of 
participating strangers and doctorate-level scientists - has not been 
completely ruled out.

95% certainty is arguably "uncertain" to the strictly scientific mentality.

But it is ironic nevertheless ... since this device might well depend on the 
Casimir effect at the most fundamental level (not for the heat, per se, but for 
maintaining 'pycno' - dense hydrogen, following spillover).

If nothing else, your blog and posts have identified you as the chief proponent 
of the general idea that at least the first step in the anomalous heat 
processes, in many prior experiments, depends on cavity-QED.

Everything that follows would then depends a priori on the Casimir effect, even 
if it is "only" a force, and not a dynamic source of heat in itself. It is then 
clearly the most fundamental part of a two (or more) step process. And it is 
what LENR has lacked, until "nano" came along with Arata as the icon of that 
advance, since even Mills himself did not appreciate what was going-on in his 
similar experiments.

Few observers who have delved into this deeply doubt that Raney nickel provides 
the easiest commercial route to a massive level of Casimir cavities in nickel, 
nor that Rossi is using it as his "nano nickel" (nor that it is responsible for 
the two lab fires in New Hampshire)... nor even that that the many of the prior 
[problems with LENR stem from the fact that crystal 'dislocations' are a poor 
substitute for engineered cavities.

If the Casimir effect is NOT involved, I would be completely amazed.

If the Casimir effect is a sine qua non  to the reaction happening at a robust 
level, I would not be surprised in the least.

Hey ! Let's celebrate with a toast to Hendrik (Casimir) and especially to 
Murray (Raney)! who actually preceded Casimir by twenty years !! not to mention 
P&F and Rossi !!!

... maybe there should be martinis all around - which drink - BTW could be 
called the rossi ... if you want to get into a trivia contest <g> Bottom's up ! 
 and put it all on Park's tab.

Later, we can add a round for Mallove, Puthoff (ZPE) and even Mills, after we 
have had a few - and all the others who have pushed this along in their own way 
-Storms, Swartz, McKubre, Miley, Mizuno etc. etc. etc. not to mention Jed who 
has been the force majeure, so to speak - in the face of constant criticism 
from the meatheads of science.

Cheers,

Jones

This is a widely read publication with a huge audience among government 
contractors. The major media will be next. To be honest I only forwarded my own 
comments with this news to certain peers at Lockheed this morning for fear of 
this being some elaborate hoax.
