Your comment that Hg can help spin coupling is out od the blue. What makes you think it can help in spin coupling?

This topic comes up from time to time here. No surprise there: both "red mercury" and vimanas actually are intriguing in the spy-vs-spy maneuverings of officials despite whatever science could be involved. Many would like to brand everything related to Hg as nothing more than SciFi or scam, but there are connections to LENR which can explain some things. Sam Cohen, the main proponent - has adequate credentials to be believed, even if he is not the "father of the neutron bomb"… but he could be that as well. He claimed for some time that red mercury is a powerful "ballotechnic" and BTW - the "red" indicates only that it was developed by Russian commies - not a coloration (that came as part of the scam). Ballotechnics can be defined as supra-chemical - in that inner orbitals are accessed; and with Hg such a happenstance brings up the relativistic connection. Even Cohen may not have fully realized the implications of Hg relativist electrons, nor the close Rydberg fit… and the possibility of the two working together for LENR. In fact, the end result may go beyond what Cohen has claimed -imagine a cold fusion trigger for hot fusion. Cohen thought that the supra-chemical energy released during the Hg reaction is enough to directly compress a fission secondary without the need for a fissile primary. He claimed that Soviets perfected grapefruit-sized pure fusion weapons, but there is no validation of this claim from any official source. However, if what was really happening was fusing deuterons into helium by Hg from reduced orbitals, then the need for both fissile material and tritium would be completely eliminated. Yikes. Undetectable. This is the worst imaginable nightmare for DHS. In fact, it would not surprise me, if the US was the developer of this technology - or co-developer, back in the early eighties - and some Russian "entrepreneurs" later were able to built a scam on top of it, selling junk on the black market for OPEC megabucks - possibly to discredit the technology in another way. If this is even partly true: that Hg can catalyze D+D cold fusion, then that fact alone explains why cold fusion was officially ignored at the highest levels - from the start in 1989. And… to tell the truth … that level of official neglect may make logical sense on one level, since a 9/11 style act could have been much worse if red mercury is really a cold fusion trigger for hot fusion. >> Mercury is one of a few metals or eutectics which remain a liquid down to fairly low temperature, and notable for Hg alone is the gas-phase. Mercury is a singularity in the periodic table in that it can exist as a monatomic gas, usually denoted as Hg(g). This lack of bonding is due to electron contraction by relativistic effects - which explains why the bonding for Hg-Hg is weak enough to allow for Hg to be a liquid at room temperature.

Given that Mercury is atomic in the gas state, this should make the gas a good Mills catalyst. A pair of Hydrinos combined in a Hydrino molecule might be even be able to supply sufficient energy to cause Mercury to fission, giving rise to the tales of mercury powered "Vimana". (Such a fission reaction would yield roughly 140 MeV.)
