Control of the Rossi reaction is a complicated thing.
The energy density pumping mechanism you site may be only one mechanism of many that play into the complicated interplay of many factors in which the Cat-E might be controlled. Rossi’s revelation that the “secret catalyst” makes the Rossi reaction “go” is an argument against your theory being the sole or even the primary controlling factor. He states that without this secret element, nickel powder does not produce a sustained reaction. But he also says that the Reaction can continue without the application of external stimulus being applied. This is where the mechanism you site might come into play. I also think this is a mode that Rossi does not want the Cat-E reaction to enter. I think the “secret catalyst” is a spillover catalyst that turns H2 into H- and forces this H-into the crystal lattice of the nickel powder. In the beginning, this might have been only a “startup” mechanism. But the reactor melted down more than he would have liked where once is too much. I believe that Rossi had to somehow disable energy density pumping to positively control his reactor the way that he wants to. If energy density pumping is full blown, the reactor may sometimes enter an uncontrolled mode where it takes off on its own nickel (pun intended) and melts down. As an engineering imperative, I have a feeling that Rossi decided to centralize control of the reactor in the control box where he can adjust or shut off control power as required. He calls his Cat-E reactor an energy amplifier because the small amount of energy used to control the Cat-E is amplified greatly in the power output of the reactor. * * On Mon, Apr 25, 2011 at 9:46 AM, Roarty, Francis X < francis.x.roa...@lmco.com> wrote: > On Sun, Apr 24, 2011 at 05:25, Axil Axil <janap...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > *“With temperature above the set the reactor is automatically stopped”* > > > > Axil, > > We see the Mill’s powder in the Rowan confirmations totally > run-away but yet we get mixed messages about the Rossi reactor which IMHO > may reflect the bond state of the gas population.
