We have not discussed the Aharonov-Bohm effect to my knowledge as a mechanism for transmission of energy from NAE in the LENR recent discussions. It may create another magnetic coupling mechanism in the solid state. This effect is discussed in the Canadian's patent and demonstrates the existence of the magnetic wave which has a magnetic A vector potential and a PHI electric scalar potential with the A vector pointing along the direction of the propagation which also, I think occurs at the speed of light in a vacuum. I do not remember what the rules are for the speed of the wave in a medium.
Do we have a new coupling mechanism for energy transfer in LENR systems because of the design of the transmitters and receivers in the Nano structures?

He was said to have driven a converted car around which was powered by the transmission. Of course, this would suggest that if “vector potential waves” are the source of that power, then instead of an inverse square fall-off from the transmitter, there is a directed wave focusing effect - with much less diminution… which is what Tesla thought was happening. As I recall – there are skeptics who doubt this story… but the Canadian’s may have rediscovered it. Their patent https://www.google.com/patents/US8165531 From: Roarty, Francis X I am also “skeptical” but not willing to totally discount it just yet.. too many similarities between superconducting, fractal meta antennas and all the recent comments regarding the Dirac sea / ZPE / entanglement/ spooky action at a distance / spins cancelling 1D singlets, From: David Roberson I am skeptical of this one James. It has always amazed me how a tsunami can travel at hundreds of miles per hour across the open sea while normal sea waves move much slower. Something of a similar nature might occur with electromagnetic waves as far as I know. Could this system work in a similar fashion with radio waves? Lets see the evidence that these guys have really found something new and not just another method of viewing the same old phenomena. Dave -----Original Message----- From: James Bowery New Radio Wave Requires No Transmitter Power! McMaster Professor Natalia Nikolova and her husband Robert ZimmermanMcMaster research engineer Professor Natalia Nikolova, and her husband Robert Zimmerman, have verified the existence of a new type of radio wave called the Vector Potential Wave. This wave was first predicted in 1880 by British mathematician James Clerk Maxwell, but had never been directly detected until this summer here on McMaster campus in the Communications Research Lab>. Dr. Nikolova comments, “One of the most enigmatic predictions of Maxwell was his concept of the magnetic vector potential. Until recently most engineers believed it was only a mathematical concept with no physical reality. Now, more than 125 years later, we have realized a magnetic vector potential detector which allows measuring the wave at any distance from a microwave antenna.” Nikolova and her husband have been working on this development nearly 2 years. Zimmerman feels that the new discovery will ultimately lead to radio and television transmissions which do not require energy. On a more fundamental level, he added, “Maxwell was correct all along.” The novelty of the discovery is that while the transmission requires very little energy, the reception of the wave requires that an active battery operated receiver be used. This is distinct from usual AM radio transmissions, where much energy is radiated by the transmitter, and the receiver can be a ‘crystal set’ with no battery. The detector developed by the research team is a plasma device looking like a fluorescent tube which displays super-conducting properties for radio signals. Nikolova is quick to add, “The device is at room temperature but acts like a superconductor, as predicted by Fritz London in 1930.” Nikolova and Zimmerman plan on submitting their results this week to the research journal The Physical Review of the American Physical Society. Zimmerman is a former Director of Engineering of LBA Technology.
