AllTables: In this, any and all of the tables made available by Dr Parkhomov may be invoked by a single SQL command and the results listed.
To make full use of this program's capabilities, a sound grasp of SQL is essential.
Note that a "null" appearing anywhere in the source or results tables indicates either that the value is not known or is not applicable in the context
This "universal" program can accept full SQL commands that query any of the 12 "Parkhomov" tables, together with the "ElementProperties", "Nuclides", "RadioNuclides" and "Atomic Radii" tables as well.
New Feature: In all the above tables except the Periodic, each atom, in either the input or the output, as well as its 'A' and 'Z' numbers now also has a 'nBorF' ('nuclear Boson or Fermion') and a 'aBorF' ('atomic Boson or Fermion') parameter associated with it.
An atom's nucleus is considered a Boson if its A number is even; if odd a Fermion (thus nBorF = 'b' or 'f'). The atom itself is considered a Boson if its number of neutrons (A - Z) is even; if odd a Fermion (thus aBorF = 'b' or 'f').
The above extra parameters can be used either passively by observing the distributions of 'b' and 'f' in inputs and/or outputs, and/or actively by including some or all of them in the SQL commands themselves.

Analyses indicate that self-excited, acoustically resonating nozzles, causing jets to be structured with large discrete vortex rings, should promote cavitation to depths several times greater than for conventional jets. The new nozzle designs are shown to be suitable for existing mechanical drill bits and may even affect hole cleaning in the absence of cavitation. | https://sci-hub.se/10.1115/1.3231053 doi:10.1115/1.3231053 | ||||||

The main purpose of the present paper is to provide recommendations on using the cavitating jets based on a comprehensive literature review on the erosion mechanism in these jets. Self-resonating jets are extensively discussed in the present paper due to their importance in amplifying the erosion effect of cavitating jets. The influence of different jet nozzle geometric parameters and the operating conditions of the cavitating jet flow on the erosion mechanism is also discussed. Finally, well drilling in addition to multiple other industrial applications of cavitating jets are examined. | https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/11/7/3166 | ||||||

He explains how this plays into extraordinary MFMP observations of coherent matter effects and apparent interactions, via the fractal toroidal moment, with the spin of dark and ordinary matter, potentially yielding high frequency gravity waves and focussing thereof. Matsumoto documented ‘gravity waves’ in his Pd D experiments in 1990 which may be responsible for the 'gravity decay' of matter he said he observed. Taken together, this supports claims made in 2018 for destruction of matter and related nuclear fusion technology claimed on behalf of the United States NAVY. | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gux490Oywoo | ||||||

"Far in the universe, nuclear collapses very often take place by the gravitational force after stars consume their fuel. Since the electromagnetic force is about 40 orders stronger than the gravitational force, it should be easy to induce similar nuclear collapses by the electromagnetic force in laboratory. But we never knew until now how to do that. Recently, the author discovered a nuclear collapse which was induced by the electromagnetic force in laboratory, during studying the mechanisms of so-called "Cold Fusion (CF)" phenomena. Several kinds of nuclear reaction which were directly induced by the electromagnetic force, called "Electro-Nuclear Reaction (ENR)," were found so far to occur in a special state of hydrogen clusters, called "itonic clusters," or "micro Ball Lightning (BL)." The nuclear collapse was one of the most remarkable reactions among ENRs, called "Electro-Nuclear Collapse (ENC)." Furthermore, very amazingly, completely broken materials by ENC were found to be regenerated again to thin tubes and films of conventional elements such as carbon, oxygen and iron. The latter process was called "Electro-Nuclear Regeneration (ENG) | |||||||||

A model based upon standard electromagnetic interactions between a small particle and the 1.5 GHz cavity excitation field is described. This model can explain some features of these data, in particular, the existence of particle orbits without wall contact. While this result is an important success for the model, it is detailed why the model as it stands is incomplete. It is argued that no avenues for a suitable extension of the model through established physics appear evident, which motivates an investigation of a model based upon a more exotic object, ball lightning. As discussed, further motivation derives from the fact that there are significant similarities in many of the qualitative features of ball lightning and MLO’s, even though they appear in quite different circumstances and differ in scale by orders of magnitude. The ball lightning model, which incorporates electromagnetic charges and currents, is based on a symmetrized set of Maxwell's equations in which the electromagnetic sources and fields are characterized by a process called dyality rotation. It is shown that a consistent mathematical description of dyality rotation as a physical process can be achieved by adding suitable (phenomenological) current terms to supplement the usual current terms in the symmetrized Maxwell's equations. These currents, which enable the conservation of electric and magnetic charge, are called vacuum currents. It is shown that the proposed ball lightning model offers a good qualitative explanation of the perplexing aspects of the MLO data. Avenues for further study are indicated. | https://www.slac.stanford.edu/pubs/slacpubs/13500/slac-pub-13583.pdf | ||||||

Work supported by Department of Energy contract DE–AC03–76SF00515. | ball lightning, vorton, plasma, Hessdalen, atmospheric luminous phenomena | A model for ball lightning (BL) is described. It is based upon the vorton model for elementary particles, which exploits the symmetry between electricity and magnetism. The core, or driving engine, of BL in this model is comprised of a vorton-antivorton plasma. The energy of BL, which derives from nucleon decay catalyzed by this plasma, leads, through various mechanisms, to BL luminosity as well as to other BL features. It is argued that this model could also be a suitable explanation for other luminous phenomena, such as the unidentified atmospheric light phenomena seen at Hessdalen. It is predicted that BL and similar atmospheric luminous phenomena should manifest certain features unique to this model, which would be observable with suitable instrumentation. | https://www.slac.stanford.edu/pubs/slacpubs/6250/slac-pub-6473.pdf | ||||||

We also show that this turbulent cloud suppresses the aspect ratio inversion typically observed in quantum degenerate bosonic gases during free expansion.

He produced many monographs about them and suggested they were the physics that explained cold fusion. In Ken Shoulders words, EVO's are, "Highly organized, micron-sized clusters of electrons, having soliton behavior, with electron populations density on the order of Avogadro's number per cm 3 (A typical 2µm EVO has a population of 10 11 to 10 13 electrons). When interacted with solid material, these charge clusters perform a low-energy phase transformation type of atomic disruption that liquefies the lattice and propels the material to a high velocity without apparent signs of conventional heating. Using an ordinary thermal interpretation, a thermal gradient for bulk material greater than 26,000 degrees C per micrometer would be required to achieve these effects". This paper presents lessons from thin film deposition methods like Vacuum Arc, Pulsed Electron beam, Pulsed Laser whose commonality with EVO generation is pulse energy impingement on a target. Rather than the hypothesis of a "new form of matter" as an explanation of EVO's, it is hypothesized that generation of a micro shaped-charge, in analogy with explosively formed shaped-charge munitions, can explain the characteristics of surfaces that were struck by EVO's. This hypothesis reproduces the effects that are underlined in the text above. | 364331067_A_Possible_Heuristic_Explanation_of_Exotic_Vacuum_Objects_EVO's_Charge_Clusters | https://e-catworld.com/2022/10/23/new-paper-by-graham-hubler-a-possible-heuristic-explanation-of-exotic-vacuum-objects-evos-charge-clusters/ | ||||||

This work aims at checking whether “cold fusion” fits in pathological science traits. For each type of experiment and year, this work counted the distinct research groups results (success or failure). Experimental results from many research groups suggest that nuclear reactions in solids are more complex than fusion (it is not only fusion) and that they need energy triggers like background radiation, meaning chemical configurations alone do not seem to generate nuclear reactions. Some types of experiments present rising trends (the field does not fit in pathological science model) and have potential to bring disruptive technologies.

This post explores implications that involves the existence of the magnetic singularity that appears in the EVO as described in Bob Greenyer’s lecture on the Skyrmion formation of the EVO. My post will attempt to explain the theory behind how an EVO can remediate nuclear waste. One implication is the existence of a magnetic monopole as an implication of the magnetic singularity generated by the Skyrmion. I contend that this singularity is the magnetic monopole that science has been looking for over a hundred years. First I contend that the particle that forms the EVO is a electron that has been reformed by removing it mass and charge to just leave its spin. This changeless and massless quasiparticle is called a polariton. I further contend that this particle is the Dirac magnetic charge. The polariton is the quantum of magnetic charge. | https://e-catworld.com/2021/10/18/the-magnetic-singularity-in-the-evo-axil-axil/ | |||||

A LEC converts the internal energy within the lattice of some materials, such as palladium, or of gases occluded within the lattice, such as hydrogen or deuterium, into ionizing radiation and electrical energy. Experiments include tests where the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the LEC were measured when an external voltage/current was applied, as well as other I-V tests where the spontaneous LEC voltage was measured as a function of temperature and resistance. LEC voltage and current has been shown to increase with increased temperature. The electrical power produced by a LEC is similar to that produced by a nuclear battery however, a LEC does not require radioactive materials. While the energy levels produced to date are several orders of magnitude below those required for most power sources, the calculated flux of ionizing radiation necessary to produce the experimentally measured voltage and current would require the equivalent of several curies of radiation. These results have been independently replicated by two individuals.

The UK-based JET laboratory has smashed its own world record for the amount of energy it can extract by squeezing together two forms of hydrogen. If nuclear fusion can be successfully recreated on Earth it holds out the potential of virtually unlimited supplies of low-carbon, low-radiation energy. The experiments produced 59 megajoules of energy over five seconds (11 megawatts of power). This is more than double what was achieved in similar tests back in 1997. It's not a massive energy output - only enough to boil about 60 kettles' worth of water. But the significance is that it validates design choices that have been made for an even bigger fusion reactor now being constructed in France.

4961 | Patent | Haisch, B., Moddel, G. | 2005 | Quantum vacuum energy extraction | US7379286B2 | electromagnetic quantum vacuum, Casimir cavity, scalable | A system is disclosed for converting energy from the electromagnetic quantum vacuum available at any point in the universe to usable energy in the form of heat, electricity, mechanical energy or other forms of power. By suppressing electromagnetic quantum vacuum energy at appropriate frequencies a change may be effected in the electron energy levels which will result in the emission or release of energy. Mode suppression of electromagnetic quantum vacuum radiation is known to take place in Casimir cavities. A Casimir cavity refers to any region in which electromagnetic modes are suppressed or restricted. When atoms enter into suitable micro Casimir cavities a decrease in the orbital energies of electrons in atoms will thus occur. Such energy will be captured in the claimed devices. Upon emergence form such micro Casimir cavities the atoms will be re-energized by the ambient electromagnetic quantum vacuum. In this way energy is extracted locally and replenished globally from and by the electromagnetic quantum vacuum. This process may be repeated an unlimited number of times. This process is also consistent with the conservation of energy in that all usable energy does come at the expense of the energy content of the electromagnetic quantum vacuum. Similar effects may be produced by acting upon molecular bonds. Devices are described in which gas is recycled through a multiplicity of Casimir cavities. The disclosed devices are scalable in size and energy output for applications ranging from replacements for small batteries to power plant sized generators of electricity. | https://patents.google.com/patent/US7379286B2/en | https://e-catworld.com/2022/02/16/article-zero-point-energy-infinite-possibilities-medium-com/ https://medium.com/predict/zero-point-energy-infinite-possibilities-f66fb3e4aeb2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_electrodynamics https://www.researchgate.net/publication/344897337_Extraction_of_Zero-Point_Energy_from_the_Vacuum_Assessment_of_Stochastic_Electrodynamics-Based_Approach_as_Compared_to_Other_Methods | ||||||

This is the condensed matter. It could be made up of any combination of elements. It has a positive charge, deep space has a negative charge. Deep space is 99.99 per cent plasma; plasma is a medium through which electric charge can flow. Positive and negative charges seek equilibrium, but in the context of a star, the can’t find equilibrium. This causes the plasma to ignite and organize into a stellar atmosphere: a sun or star is created. The sun gets all its power from its relationship to the interstellar medium.

4953 | All | Goldwater, A. | 2021 | Bob Greenyer comments: "MFMP Volunteer Alan Goldwater has been meticulously working on a replication of Frank Gordons "Lattice Energy Convertor" here is the live document." | Lattice Energy Converter, Frank Gordon, replication | In their ICCF23 paper Frank Gordon and Harper Whitehouse reported a gas-mode metal cell that produced a DC current and voltage when the metal cathode was prepared in a certain way.They named the device a Lattice Energy Converter, or LEC. It has been replicated and discussed by several other researchers. In particular, James Stevenson’s lab notes have been published, and will inform the research reported here. In the tests reported here, the concentric tubes of the device were installed in an existing reactor chamber built for replication of Mizuno’s R20 system. That enclosure is a 2.75 inch stainless steel conflat tube 300 mm in length. The data, vacuum, gas, and thermal control systems were all well proven in earlier work. An electrically insulating Conflat end flange was added, made from acrylic plastic ½ inch thick. In this series of tests, a combination of electrolyte (Ammonia, Iron Sulfate, Sodium Citrate) and plating current (1.28v, 90 mA) was found that would yield a smooth and well-adhered coating of black iron on a brass cathode tube. Two of the plated tubes were tested, using a galvanized iron pipe for the outer anode with about 1 mm gap. Neither tube showed any voltage above the typical input bias of the DAQ front-end (168±5 mV @ 10 MΩ). Measurements were done in air and in pure H2 over several days, all at ambient temperature of 18-20°C. No change in voltage was seen. | http://www.quantumheat.org/index.php/en/home/mfmp-blog/558-lec?fbclid=IwAR0wWigSncIIFj0FT_TWvi-ZR63RfXK5suGvUXqIeETbjAAhVwgCMcETBqk | ||||||||
4952 | All | Greenyer, R.W. | 2021 | XENO | An on-going project, initiated by Bob Greenyer and followed on the MFMP's Quantum Heat website | Introduction One of John Hutchison’s main pieces of equipment in his experiments was a replica of the Tesla Disruptive discharge unit. Tesla used this in mobile demonstrations of his experiments. During Ken Shoulders’ investigation into John Hutcisons’ effects, he established that was to ultimately be called Exotic Vacuum Objects, could best be made with a self-healing cathode made from a mercury wetted tungsten tip launching the electron clusters into a xenon filled chamber. The elements mercury and xenon would be desirable for their high mass, many d and f shell orbital electrons and in the case of xenon, the lowest ionisation energy of the stable noble gasses. Shoulders determined that if a high current short pulse was emitted from a tip and guided through a truncated cone of dielectric, solitons would form that would result in clusters of electrons and ions at great densities that emitted high energy EUV and even soft X-Ray photons. In 1997, having worked with Ken Shoulders for some time, John was faced with the problem of large sparks flying all over his small but well equipped apartment. To get round this, he chose a large searchlight Xenon HID bulb from HMCS Saskatchewan (DDE 262). Later, by 2007, it was replaced with a short-arc HID Xenon bulb similar to those used in commercial cinema projectors (WARNING - these lamps can explode due to positive internal gas pressure). We know that this solution was able to create EVOs also as it produced many of the 2007 Hutchison samples the MFMP has analysed. Indeed some Xenon HID lamps contain W, Xe and Hg, all three preferred elements detailed in Ken Shoulders Patent. | http://www.quantumheat.org/index.php/en/home/mfmp-blog/559-xeno | ||||||||

4950 | Video | Clarage, M. | 2021 | Solar Gamma Rays—Not So Much | Thunderbolts | Dec 26, 2021 | Bob Greenyer Comments: In a recent ‘Thunderbolts’ video shared with me by LION, the narrator, Michael Clarage discussed the phenomena of total electron stripping of atoms that I believe is possible in Exotic Vacuum Objects. Leonid Urutskoyev had been investigating the implications of this nearly 20 years ago, something I discussed when reviewing the early 2000s Kouropoulos paper. My understanding however, was derived independently, firstly from the magnetic flux loops in LION. I am amazed, at how some people fail to understand the significance of that hard physical data. Then secondly and more specifically, from similar flux loop structures on the Martin Fleischmann Memorial Projects’ Hutchison Fracture sample. Together, I believe these features explain many phenomena on our sun, via indelible evidence. | Sun, Gamma Rays, Electric Model, Alfven, Total Electron Stripping, EVO | The Sun puts out very few gamma rays as detailed in “The Sun Is Spitting Out Strange Patterns of Gamma Rays—and No One Knows Why” posted on Scientific American. It seems there are very few gamma rays in the entire Universe, at least in comparison to the number of photons that we see with our eyes. Astrophysicist and Lead Scientist of The SAFIRE Project, Michael Clarage, PhD—reviewed Donald E. Scott's and Hannes Alfvén’s models of the Sun’s electrical connection to its larger environment, and discussed gamma ray data with Wal Thornhill—explains how electricity can help us think through the gamma ray mystery. | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuiBf8TCt0A | ||||||

Notes on operational mode It is likely that it should be somewhere between corona and anomalous glow (AG) regime rather than spark. King states it should be AG and is probably right. Corona discharge is what Lord Raleigh used in the 1930s and the Correa team also, to see excess. Same with Claytor (proved production of Tritium) and Papp (to build Charge Clusters) and Savvatimovva (most recently presented at ICCF-23) and the ECCO generator of Suhas Ralkar. In fact, Suhas said that if he goes from corona to spark - his fuel containing tubes blew up and the reactor was broken. This is akin to the deliberate blowing up of charge clusters in Papp. Likewise Hutchison needed to have neutral self-similar EVO fragments leaving his discharges in order to interact with metals some distance from his discharges, so violent destruction was appropriate. | https://remoteview.substack.com/p/make-and-break | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc_k6dskp5g&feature=emb_imp_woyt https://youtu.be/MBQYArxDrdg https://youtu.be/zIt6AVOZJaM https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/ba/f8/e8/2562bd8bdf1ffa/US5123039.pdf https://www.intalek.com/Index/Projects/Research/ColdElectricity.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/physics/0506124.pdf https://youtu.be/gcF-KSLIAWs https://youtu.be/_jV_XVgMRiA https://youtu.be/BhitBhess2E | ||||||

I would start with a Xenon HID with a number of controllable parameters (one could be frequency), and then use a means to detect EUV and adjust until one started hitting EUV photons with energy above the first ionisation energy of Xenon as calculated in my presentation, at that point the device will feed back and become a current source. EXCEPT, it is really hard to measure EUV - I suggest getting some phosphors that would respond to the EUV as a guide and then look for electrical anomalies. A detailed method is given in the BrLP paper linked below. Whatever one does, one wants to encourage the formation of solitons. This is achieved in a these HIDs by a fast dI/dT as defined by Shoulders having studied John Hutchison’s work. I think there would be a relay in the circuit which may be triggered on a particular detected forward current (or other simple parameter), I believe one must first initiate the strike with the Xenon ballast, which will build EVOs, possibly with field based trap (I have mentioned many times that Shoulders used a penning trap) to focus them in the core as they grow, these will be pumped a little and then allowed to collapse into the anode.

For harmonic potentials, where the system can be described by effective temperatures, thermodynamic relations are shown to take a generalized Gibbsian form, that may violate the Clausius inequality. For the weakly-anharmonic case a Fokker-Planck type description is constructed. It is shown that then work can be extracted from the bath by cyclic variation of a parameter.

This has become possible through the work of Anderson‘ whose method of exploding wires at temperatures above 20,000°, well above that attributed to the hottest stars, has become valuable in spectroscopy. In our application of this method the wires were exploded within strong glass bulbs so Chat the gaseous products of the explosions could be collected for analysis. The method thus includes factors, both of cause and of error, analogous to those operative in the voluminous and inconclusive controversy on the evolution of helium in various types of low pressure electrical discharge tubes, extending from 1905 to 1915. | https://sci-hub.se/10.1021/ja01430a006 | |||||||

In this study, palladium and deuterium atoms were co-deposited on a cathode at stoichiometric densities. Bubble detector neutron dosimeters were used to measure equivalent dose levels during electrolytic deposition. Standard configuration cells expected to produce excess neutrons were denoted as experimental cells and contained an electrolyte consisting of palladium(II) chloride, lithium chloride, and heavy water (D2O). The control cells used copper(II) chloride, lithium chloride, and D2O electrolyte. Experimental and control cells were supplied current, increasing from 0.1 to 100.0 mA over a period of 20 days. For test days 9 through 20, the standard configuration experimental cells exhibited significantly higher average neutron radiation than the controls at a 99% confidence level. Alternative configurations involving increasing current over a shortened time scale, substitutions of water in place of D2O or potassium chloride for lithium chloride, as well as inclusion of depleted uranium near the cell cathodes all resulted in inconclusive evidence for promoting neutron production. | https://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SmithPJelectrolyt.pdf | ||||||

A relativistic interaction Lagrangian, based on a pure electromagnetic electron model, that suggests the possible existence of very low entropy charge aggregates and that highlights the primary role of the electromagnetic potentials in these clusters is presented. The formation of these cluster may be associated to a localized Vacuum polarization generated by a rapid radial charge displacement. The formation of these dense electron clusters are introduced as a probable precursor for the formation of proton-electron aggregates at pico-metric scale, stressing the importance of evaluating the plausibility of special electron-nucleon interactions, as already suggested in [#GullstromRossi].

In a current of shorter wavelength, the rates of change will be steeper,...[and] a second oscillator may be used to transmit a shorter wavelength current.... When the two currents react on each other, the resultant complex will contain a wave in which there is an extremely steep rate of change, and for the briefest instant currents may move at a tremendous rate, at the rate of millions of horsepower...This condition acts as a trigger which may cause the total energy of the powerful longer wave to be discharged in an infinitesimally small interval of time and at a proportionately tremendously great rate of energy movement which cannot confine itself to the metal circuit and is released into surrounding space with inconceivable violence. | https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/articles/fireball-production-tesla-coil | https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/books/nikola-tesla-colorado-springs-notes-1899-1900 https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/landmarks/nikola-tesla-museum | ||||

Maxwell believed that light could be generated electromagnetically. In fact, he was silent about electromagnetic waves and their generation and detection. It took almost a quarter of a century before Hertz discovered electromagnetic waves and his brilliant experiments confirmed Maxwell's theory. Maxwell's ideas and equations were expanded, modified and made understandable by by the efforts of Hertz, Fitzgerald, Lodge and Heaviside, the last three being referred to as the "Maxwellians". The early history of electromagnetic waves, up to the death of Hertz in 1894, is briefly discussed. The work of Hertz and the Maxwellians is briefly reviewed in the context of electromagnetic waves. It is found that historical facts do not support the views proposed by some, in the past, that Hertz's epoch-making findings and contributions were significantly influenced by the Maxwellians. | https://scalarphysics.com/resources/sengupta_sarkar/maxwell_hertz_maxwellians.pdf | ||||||

4893 | Journal Article | Adamenko, S.V., Vysotskii, V.I. | 2004 | Mechanism of Synthesis of Superheavy Nuclei via the Process of Controlled Electron-Nuclear Collapse | Physics Letters | Foundations of Physics Letters, Vol. 17, No. 3, June 2004 (@2004) | Electrodynamics Laboratory | superheavy nuclei synthesis, electron-nuclear collapse, electron-nuclear cluster, degenerate electron gas, Coulomb interaction. | This paper presents a brief review of the existing approaches to the creation of superheavy nuclei in collisions of heavy nuclei to overcome the Coulomb barrier or through the pion condensation in a nucleus volume. A principally new approach to the creation of superheavy nuclei based on the stimulation of a self-organizing collapse of electron-nuclear systems is analyzed. For a neutral atom compressed by external forces, a threshold electron density is shown to exist. If such a density is reached, a self-organizing process of "electron downfall to the nucleus" starts. This process is exoenergic and leads to the formation of a supercompressed electron-nuclear cluster. The higher the charge of a nucleus, the lower the threshold of the external compression. It is shown that the maximum binding energy shifts during such a self-organizing collapse of the electron-nuclear system from Aopt ~ 60 (for uncompressed substance) to the area of high mass numbers Aopt ~_ 200... 2000 and could render the synthesis of superheavy nuclei to be energy-efficient. The synthesis proceeds through the absorption of other nuclei by the collapsed nucleus. It is theoretically proved that the synthesis efficiency is ensured by both the width reduction and increased transparency of the Coulomb barrier in the extremely compressed electron-nuclear system. The release of binding energy through the absorption of nuclei by the electron-nuclear collapsed clusters may result in the simultaneous emission of lighter nuclei. It is assumed that just such a mechanism of synthesis explains the creation of superheavy and other anomalous nuclei observed in the experiments carried out at the Electrodynamics Laboratory "Proton-21". | https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S1VrFJY2lSiApYqR7-1Jsq3g2Na-5R0C/view | https://e-catworld.com/2021/07/27/video-mfmp-open-meeting-july-2021/ | ||||

The hot refrigerant vapor from the compressor (around 150C) is used to heat the water flowing through a tiny passage of a triple-pipe heat exchanger. This may cause a violent cavitation of water. The machine was modified furthermore and tested for two years since then. The calorimetric method for COP measurement was improved. The COP inside the steam generator is defined as the heat carried away by water (Qwnet) divided by the net heat input (Wt - QL), denoted as COPx . This is used as the criterion to determine the possibility of excess energy generation. If the measured COPx was greater than 1, then the cavitation-induced low-energy nuclear reaction (LENR) might occur. The test shows that the maximum COPx reaches 1.97 (Figure 1) and COPx increases with decreasing inlet water temperature. | http://ikkem.com/iccf23/MP4/3b-IN22.mp4 | http://ikkem.com/iccf23/orppt/ICCF23-IA-21%20Huang.pdf | |||||||

Particularly intense generation should occur in metals and dense plasma. Resulting neutrinos and antineutrinos can excite exothermic nuclear reactions in the surrounding matter. A number of experiments were carried out that confirmed the energy release predicted by the hypothesis in a substance near a metal heated to a high temperature. The source of the neutrino-antineutrino (hot metal or dense plasma) can be separated from the "fuel " - the substance where nuclear transformations occur. This opens up the possibility for designing highly efficient LENR reactors. Several reactors based on this approach have been tested. In all reactors, at a sufficiently high temperature of the metal core, heat was detected in excess of the electricity consumed. A number of experiments indicate that the participation of hydrogen in nuclear transmutations is optional. | http://en.rensit.ru/vypuski/article/372/13(1)45-58e.pdf | ||

The Energy Research Center (ERC) has been examining and verifying BEC’s calorimetry for over 18 months since 2 of the calorimeters have been moved from SRI International to BEC’s laboratory. We have continued our testing of new materials, material fabrication techniques, and electrical stimulation methods to produce excess power and energy output. By applying fast pulses of several hundred volts and tens of nanoseconds long, the current follows the “skin-effect” principle and is concentrated at the outer metal–ceramic interface but returns through the bulk of the Cu. Two stimulation methods were used – steady-state and dynamic. In the steady-state method, the pulse power is measured directly using fast oscilloscopes that record the voltage across the catalyst and a shunt resistor in series with the catalyst. The resistance of the shunt resistor is measured accurately under DC and pulse conditions. The input pulse power is determined by multiplying the calculated root-mean-square voltage and current and recorded every 10 s. Using a version of the system identification (SI) heat-flow model designed specifically for the BEC calorimeter, the power reaching the five temperature sensors is determined during simultaneous continuous ramps of both heater and pulse powers. The power emanating from the catalyst is determined during sequences of less frequent, longer duration, low voltage pulses (LVP) and compared to that found using more frequent, shorter duration, high voltage pulses (HVP). The power determined during the less frequent LVP is set as the input power during that sequence. The power of the stimulation pulses during the more frequent HVP sequences is maintained equal to that during the less frequent LVP. Then the calculated power output from the tube is divided by that calculated during the reference sequences, giving a so-called coefficient of performance (COP). We have also used mass flow calorimetry to determine COP. Low voltage, long pulses are chosen to match the input power from high voltage, short pulses. The low voltage pulses are not thought to stimulate LENR, while the high voltage pulses are. This provides a method to compare matching input power under conditions that stimulate LENR with conditions that do not. Any excess heat detected from the high voltage pulse condition is considered to be generated by LENR rather than resistive heating. | https://www.iscmns.org/CMNS/JCMNS-Vol33.pdf#page=39 | |||||||

The best ideas and tests were segregated for further analysis and are summarized in this report. A combined bibliography of references was assembled and is presented. The focus of this study was to review and analyze the axially symmetric force-free time-harmonic plasmoid model developed by Nachamkin (1992) for a previous Air Force Research Laboratory study. The intent of the Nachamkin model was to bring together a unique blend of properties proposed by investigators exploring the genre of microwave plasmoid resonance ball lightning models. The main goal of this study is to evaluate and propose experiments to demonstrate the generation of axially symmetric force-free plasmoid ball lightning in the laboratory. Two key experiments were identified and discussed in the report with enough detail to form the basis of future research proposals. An investigation was also conducted into additional promising theories and experiments that might lead to generating ball lightning plasmoids in the lab. Three alternative ball lightning concepts similar to axially symmetric force-free time-harmonic plasmoids were identified and evaluated for their experimental potential, and are described in the report in detail as proposed experiments. The first new concept is the atmospheric maser caviton, the second concept is based on electromagnetic vortex plasmoids generated by micro-discharge devices and sustained by quantum vacuum energy, and the third concept is a-------------------------------------program the Air Force funded in the 1950s-60s. | https://documents2.theblackvault.com/documents/usaf/AFRL_2002-0039_Ball_Lightning_Study.pdf | |||||

The study, published in Nature Astronomy, provides new insights into these fascinating waves that were first discovered by the Nobel Prize winning scientist Hannes Alfvén in 1947. The vast potential of these waves resides in their ability to transport energy and information over very large distances due to their purely magnetic nature. The direct discovery of these waves in the solar photosphere, the lowest layer of the solar atmosphere, is the first step towards exploiting the properties of these magnetic waves. The ability for Alfvén waves to carry energy is also of interest for solar and plasma-astrophysics as it could help explain the extreme heating of the solar atmosphere—a mystery that has been unsolved for over a century. | https://phys.org/news/2021-05-scientists-magnetic-action-sun-photosphere.html | http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/s41550-021-01354-8 | |||||

John Hutchison comments to Bob's thank-you note (edited but subject to further correction): You're welcome, Bob - most of these were done in the big lab the East Hastings Street in Vancouver where Jack Houck filmed and Canadian Government rep Alex Pezaro's wife would make a dinner for us. Alex was prepared to take chances and took some of the samples. Years later, I moved to 13 and Kingsway with new partners Alex and George Liscazis. George was almost killed when an X-Ray transformer weighing 1500 pounds flew off a truck. Then there was the British Columbia Supreme Court case and all kinds of weird stuff that went on while I was in Germany. Then the whole lab was taken to Surrey, BC by the Canadian government. They tried to keep it secret but it made headline news. I have those newspapers, as the lawyers sent them to Kowoski and company in Gazda hired and Peter Kokoshinegg. Alex describes all this in detail in recent emails then on the rebuild (using equipment surplus to old warships) was successful but caused local authorities to close it down as the effects where going through the entire town of New Westminster. It all sounds nutty but it was documented by engineers and the news media. I agreed, as the effects in my opinion are dangerous to others. I had a few scary encounters myself. I think George Hathaway said he had a headache, Alex Pezaro had no issues but George Liscazis went insane - hence the Supreme Court case. In my opinion, Alex was OK.

Often detractors of this technology wheel out derisive commentary saying that it is impossible and akin to alchemy, because everyone ‘knows’ that alchemy is nonsense and by drawing the comparison, the challenger is inferring that LENR is also nonsense. The reality is that transmutation occurs all the time in nature, radioactive decay causes transmutations, it is what happens in a banana when some of its potassium decays, mostly to calcium. The decay of a specific type of carbon to nitrogen is how ‘carbon dating’ is done. | https://steemit.com/steemstem/@mfmp/making-gold-were-alchemists-right-all-along | |||||

HUMAN. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082S5KJYV | In the late 1950s, a Japanese scientist first proposed that neutrinos might have a relationship with gravity other than being affected by them. More recently Scientists at CERN had discussed how relic neutrinos could account for gravity. It has been observed by many LENR researchers that there is some form of magnetic particles that are produced during LENR reactions and that these can cause beta isotopes to change their decay rates. Other researchers have observed in the 1950s and 1980s/90s that, during 3 body alignments, there is a sideways force recorded when under the path of the eclipse, in the latter case, at the same time, beta isotope decay rates of 87Rb and 137Cs in atomic clocks was observed to change. This indicates a modification of the rate of cold neutrino interactions with matter. We have discussed many of these experiments on this channel and there will be videos linked at the end of the presentation as jumping off points to explore that research. This video highlights the testimony of a former senior scientist at a major arms manufacture that connects the Hutchison Effect, Gravity, novel magnet configurations, field interactions, introduces a patent that claims to be able to both modify decay rates and provide a counter gravity effect and the Neutrino Universe, directly connecting it to means to extract energy densities beyond nuclear. A novel experiment is conducted in the video that raises questions for the viewers consideration. | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_8Nsas5eY0 | ||||||
4799 | Journal Article | Wheeler, J.A. | 1954 | Geons | Physical Review, Volume 97, Number 2 | Palmer Physical Laboratory, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey | September 8, 1954 | Geons, gravitational-electromagnetic entities, | Associated with an electromagnetic disturbance is a mass, the gravitational attraction of which under appropriate circumstances is capable of holding the disturbance together for a time long in comparison with the characteristic periods of the system. Such gravitational-electromagnetic entities, or "geons"; are analyzed via classical relativity theory. They furnish for the first time a completely classical, divergence-free, self-consistent picture of the Newtonian concept of body over the range of masses from ~103'g to 10'7 g. Smaller geons are quantum objects whose analysis would call for the treatment of characteristic new effects. Topics covered in the discussion include: 1. Need for a self-consistent formulation of the concept of "body" in classical physics; geons vs free waves; electrical neutrality of geon; size and mass relations; the quantum limit and electron pair phenomena. 2. Orders of magnitude for toroidal geons; first estimates of leakage rates; a "phosphor" model of a geon; attrition and attritivity; energy action relation. 3. Idealized spherical geon; conditions required for symmetry; instability relative to pairing of light rays; time scale of instability long compared to vibration periods; spherical metric; wave equation for electromagnetic potential; evaluation of stress-energy tensor; its position as source of gravitation field; the gravitational field equations; the three equations of the self-consistent geon; simplification by scale transformation; first analysis of the eigenvalue problem; further scale transformation to get behavior of solution in active region of geon; further analysis of eigenvalue dependence; electronic calculator integration of equations of self-consistent geon; mass and radius values. 4. Transformations and interactions of electromagnetic geons; evaluation of refractive index barrier penetration integral for spherical geon; photon-photon collision processes as additional mechanism for escape of energy from system; restatement in language of coupling of characteristic modes; the thermal geon; comparison of gravitation and virtual electron pair phenomena as sources of coupling between modes; gravitational coupling and collective vibrations of geon; fission of a geon; interaction between two geons simple at large distances; orientation dependence and exponential term at intermediate distances; violent transmutation processes in closer encounters. 5. Influence of virtual pairs on geon structure; description in terms of refractive index correction; relation to photon-photon collision picture; more precise formulation via Heisenberg-Euler electrodynamics; corrections to stress-energy tensor and electromagnetic field equations. 6. Neutrino-containing geons; general similarity to electromagnetic geons; specificity of geon-geon interactions; the size subject to simple analysis unexpectedly limited by neutrino-neutrino encounters and the process v+v—>+p+e; similarity of size limitation to that for electromagnetic geons; comments on present status of neutrino theory of light. 7. Electricity, Gauss's theorem, and gravitational field fluctuations. 8. Conclusions: The geon completes the scheme of classical physics; one's interest in following geons into quantum domain will depend upon one's view of the relation between very small geons and elementary particles. | https://blackholes.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/gritting/pdf/gravity_and_general_relativity/Wheeler_Geons.pdf | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=634O7hLkGPU | ||||

4797 | Website of Interest | 2015 | UCLA Putterman Research Group | Sonofusion, Crystallic Fusion, Turbulence, Triboelectrifcation | Mysteries of Energy Focusing Phenomena We study the fate of energy that is injected into a system so as to push it far from equilibrium. A sound wave passing through a fluid can create a bubble that pulsates so strongly that it becomes a dense plasma that emits flashes of light only trillionths of a second long. When “Scotch” tape is peeled from its roll in a dark closet, a mysterious glow can be seen. Somehow the force of peeling a complex network of polymers generates a charge separation, which then organizes to create a discharge and emit photons with energies that can extend into the x-ray portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. When a ferroelectric crystal such as Lithium Niobate is heated, the ions move ever so slightly relative to their electron clouds to create massive electric fields that are capable of generating nuclear fusion in a system the size of a walnut. In these off-equilibrium systems, nonlinear processes dominate the motion. Although entropy always increases in all these phenomena, the second law of thermodynamics gives little guidance in understanding how they work. As you marvel at the wide range of phenomena on this web page, please wonder whether there is a new guiding principle which explains why so many different off-equilibrium systems like to concentrate energy density. The limits of energy focusing that can be achieved off-equilibrium are not known. Can a similar multi-scale system someday be used as a fusion reactor? | http://acoustics-research.physics.ucla.edu/ | |||||||||

Quantum simulations of electromagnetic forces have the potential to provide information about materials and systems that do not have conveniently solvable theoretical descriptions, such as those related to quantum Hall physics, or that have not been physically observed, such as magnetic monopoles. However, quantum simulations that simultaneously implement all of the principal features of classical electromagnetism have thus far proved elusive. We experimentally realize a simulation in which a charged quantum particle interacts with the knotted electromagnetic fields peculiar to a topological model of ball lightning. These phenomena are induced by precise spatiotemporal control of the spin field of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate, simultaneously creating a Shankar skyrmion—a topological excitation that was theoretically predicted four decades ago but never before observed experimentally. Our results reveal the versatile capabilities of synthetic electromagnetism and provide the first experimental images of topological three-dimensional skyrmions in a quantum system. | https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/advances/4/3/eaao3820.full.pdf | ||||||

We had the honor of interviewing Francis Tanzella, one of the "household" names in the LENR field, and who has been working in many of the research teams that have been able to successfully replicate the results of Fleischmann and Pons, and has met and worked with many of the greatest minds behind the development of Cold Fusion LENR, and beyond. Francis Tanzella is a Chemist and Principle Scientist with the Energy Research Center in Northern California. He first confirmed the Fleischmann and Pons Anomalous Heat Effect at SRI International's lab in Menlo Park, California in 1989. There, along with a team led by Michael McKubre, he correlated the excess heat generated in palladium-deuterium cells to the amount of helium produced by the cell, among other LENR discoveries. Frank Tanzella has also evaluated and tested the Brillouin Hot-Tube energy generator now in development by Brillouin Energy Corporation and continues to evaluate various technologies vying to find the recipe to clean energy from the hydrogen in water. Image Caption: Francis Tanzella, as portrayed by Matt Hottwarth in "Discover Cold Fusion" by Ruby Carat and Matt Hottwarth, Curtiss Press (visit the forum Newsletter to see the image here: https://www.lenr-forum.com/forum/thread/6578-the-newsletter-posting-thread-please-no-comments/). In this interview Francis updates us about how things are going on Brillouin Energy and the fascinating engineering challenges that represents turning Brillouin's Intellectual Property into a commercializable device, while still not having a deep understanding of the theoretical aspects and finding ways to create the very specific conditions in which the reaction works. We also get to know a brief glimpse about other projects he is involved in, within LENR and outside the field. We then get a peek into the personal side, the fascinating characters he has had the honor to meet in all these 32 years, and the friendships that he has forged, how he cultivates them, and how he has managed to take part and be a key member of many of the most successfull LENR projects and teams with people from all around the world. We hope you enjoy this interview and get this important first hand update, about one of the companies that is probably closer to become the first one to put a LENR device in the market.

This is achieved, it would appear, by reducing the discharge time of a capacitor to a minimum though the use of a high power diode. Now, whilst the circuit is more complex than Alexander Parkhomov's 'Woodpecker' it may be able to be modified in a range of ways enabling improved operation, though it would still suffer from electrode erosion which the 'Woodpecker' compensates for by dropping the electrode to full contact on each cycle. Alexanders circuit is flexible in forward current and because the electrode is moving it is sweeping the parameter space on each stroke. | https://steemit.com/steemstem/@mfmp/the-water-spark-plug-could-be-a-good-way-to-study-strange-radiation-and-charge-metals-for-lenr | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eB7fV24PUBk | ||||||

At the maximum approach of the nucleus (in the structure of macro-objects: the bullet and the target) are at distances much greater than the radius of action of the nuclear forces. In this case, the protons in the nuclei are mutually repelled by Coulomb forces. As a result, the nuclei are deformed. This deformed state can be associated with a specific excitation energy. Excitation is removed by the emission of a particle or nuclear fragments. The decay of bismuth-209 occurs. There is not one nucleus decaying, the process is of a group (collective) nature. Depending on the collision velocity, different decay channels can be realized, including the cluster decay 209Bi→198Pt+11B. Two mechanisms of cluster decay are proposed: the formation of a light cluster of quasi-free neutrons and the direct decay of 209Bi into clusters. | https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1742-6596/1115/5/052020 https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1115/5/052020 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eB7fV24PUBk | |||||

A strong unexpected x-ray emission was registered from the lead foil exposed to those shock waves (sound into x-rays) which were extremely adiabatic compared to processes of x-ray generation. The lead foil, exposed to shock waves, lost a part of its area having the shape of a polygonal hole of the size of ∼ 2mm. The missing polygon of lead foil looks as a delicately removed part with no damage at the hole surroundings as it should be after a mechanical breaking. This points to a non-mechanical mechanism of hole formation. That missing polygonal lead matter seems to be 'disappeared' because the total lead volume was reduced by that amount after exposure to acoustic waves (matter collapse). Both paradoxical phenomena cannot be explained by a combination of known effects and a fundamentally new mechanism is required to underlie them. The concept of electron anomalous states, which encouraged the experiments and specified main features of them, is likely that mechanism. | https://arxiv.org/pdf/1804.00530.pdf | https://youtu.be/rKW9M0kede0 | |||||

During 2019, MFMP volunteers Bob Greenyer and Dr George Egely visited Japan to test the Ohmasa vibration system and 'Ohmasa Gas' as part of 'Project OHMA'. It was suspected that a vibration system, claimed to be able to transmute matter with oscillations around 179Hz, was in fact producing ultrasonics and that this in turn was causing cavitation bubbles that may have been acting at least in part to explain the claimed transmutations. MFMP Volunteer Bob Greenyer had brought some Indium foil as a witness material on the assumption that cavitation was taking place and that Indium foil would be highly susceptible to it. Upon exposure to the vibrations system for 10 mins the 0.3mm Indium foil became stiff and highly marked and on closer inspection revealed strong signs of morphological and spatial transmutations. | http://www.quantumheat.org/index.php/en/home/mfmp-blog/552-ultr-affordable-ultrasonic-driven-transmutation | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-rAQkU1qLc | ||||

4776 | Website of Interest | Luiz Jaitner | 2019 | The Physics of Condensed Plasmoids and LENR | An informative website by one of the leading LENR researchers and his team. | CP, LENR, history, experiments, vendors, researchers, media, resources, simulator | LENR research was puzzled for a long time by the basic questions: How can nuclei fuse at low temperature, i.e. how can they overcome the Coulomb barrier without having high kinetic energies? Why is the observed excess heat not accompanied with gamma radiation? Why is LENR producing helium-4 from deuterium, whereas d-d hot fusion is mainly producing helium-3, tritium and neutrons? How can LENR be technically optimized for commercial use? To answer these questions, the author has built a quantum-mechanical model of the nuclear active environment in LENR. This environment is an ultra-dense plasmoid, i.e. a "condensed plasmoid". The properties of CPs are so exotic, that CPs qualify as a previously unknown aggregation state of matter. This document is first to describe the properties of CPs, the microscopic evidence of CPs in LENR experiments, how the properties of CPs help explaining a wealth of remarkable findings in LENR experiments, which routes of nuclear reactions could be enabled by CPs, the quantum-mechanical model of CPs, the computational results derived from this model, verifiable predictions derived from the theory on CPs and a technology assessment on potential dangers of LENR. The mechanism, which suppresses gamma radiation in CPs, will also be described in this document. The quantum-mechanical model of CPs is based on the cylindrical symmetry of a very thin (i.e. about 40 pm) plasma "wire". The quantitative properties given here are depending on the configuration of the CP, they are just examples. The electrons of a CP are fully delocalized and decoupled from the nuclei. They are moving with high velocity (10 to 80% of light speed) against the nuclei. This is resulting in an intrinsic current of about to 9 kA in the CPs, with a mean current density of approximately 2.5 A per square picometer. The magnetic field from this current reaches 50 megatesla and creates a confinement pressure of more than 1021 Pa. The electrons are compressed by a z-pinch condition to a mean density of about 0.15 electrons per cubic picometer. The creation of a CP is an endothermic process, which typically requires high voltages and high currents. Once created, CPs enjoy a lifetime, which can extend to hours. This longevity is likely not a result of the CP's stability, but is rather based on a self-sustained feedback of nuclear energy, countering the otherwise inevitable decay of the CP. The minimum distance of hydrogen nuclei in a CP is only about 2 pm, which enables tunnelling through the Coulomb barrier. The barrier is also much screened by the dense electrons. The self-sustained growth of CPs can produce a dangerous and sudden release of nuclear energy, if the reaction rate is not properly fuel-limited. | http://condensed-plasmoids.com/index.html | |||||||

However, I believe strongly in free exchange of ideas and results in science and technology for the benefit of all. LH declares that he has no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper. | catalyst, ultra-dense hydrogen, nuclear fusion | The extremely large density of ultra-dense hydrogen H(0) has been proved in numerous experiments by three laser-induced methods, namely Coulomb explosions observed by particle time-of-flight (TOF) and TOF mass spectrometry, rotational emission spectroscopy in the visible, and annihilation-like meson ejecting nuclear reaction processes. The density of H(0) at the quite common spin level s = 2 is of the order of 100 kg cm−3. The theory of ultra-dense hydrogen H(0) is described briefly, especially the 'mixed' spin quantum number s and its relation to the internuclear distances. The orbital angular momentum of the bonding electrons in H(0) is l = 0, which gives the H(0) designation. At s = 2 with electron total angular momentum L = ħ, the internuclear distance is 2.24 pm, and at s = 1 thus L = ħ/2, it is as small as 0.56 pm. The internuclear distances are measured by optical rotational spectroscopy with a precision as good as 10−3, thus with femtometer resolution. The dimensional factor (ratio of internuclear distance to the electron orbit radius) was determined to be 2.9 by electrostatic stability calculations for ordinary Rydberg matter. This value is found to be valid with high precision also for H(0) clusters with different shapes. Superfluidity and a Meissner effect at room temperature are only found for the long chain clusters H2N(0), while the small H3(0) and H4(0) clusters do not have any super properties. Instead, they are the clusters in which most of the nuclear reaction processes take place. These processes give meson showers (most types of kaons and pions) and, after meson decay, large fluxes of muons and other leptons. Published applications of these results already exist in the field of nuclear reactions, energy production (patented fusion reactor), space physics (the solar wind), and in astrophysics (dark matter and the interstellar medium). | https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0360319921008144?via%3Dihub | https://e-catworld.com/2021/03/28/paper-production-of-ultra-dense-hydrogen-h0-a-novel-nuclear-fuel-holmlid-et-al/ | ||||

In recent years, active, self-propelled particles have received growing interest amongst the scientific community. Examples of active particles and their systems are numerous and very diverse, ranging from bacterium films to flocks of birds or human crowds. These systems can demonstrate unusual behavior, which is challenging to understand or model. To this end, large-scale models of active particles were being scrutinized by experts at Leicester, in order to understand basic principles underlying active particle dynamics and apply them in a scenario of an evacuation strategy for customers in crowded place. Unexpectedly, the ‘super-particles’ milling in a circular motion were stumbled upon by Leicester’s physicists who subsequently coined the phenomenon as “swirlonic.” The “swirlon” — a novel state of active matter — displayed a stunning behavior whereby instead of moving with acceleration, the quasi-particle groups moved with a constant velocity, proportional to the applied force and in the same direction of the force. This conduct seemingly violates the Second Newton’s Law, currently taught in secondary schools across the UK. | https://scitechdaily.com/swirlonic-super-particles-physicists-baffled-by-a-novel-state-of-matter | |||||||

It is comprised of swirlons, formed by groups of active particles orbiting their common center of mass. These quasi-particles demonstrate a surprising behavior: In response to an external load they move with a constant velocity proportional to the applied force, just as objects in viscous media. The swirlons attract each other and coalesce forming a larger, joint swirlon. The coalescence is extremely slow, decelerating process, resulting in a rarifed state of immobile quasi-particles. In addition to the swirlonic state, we observe gaseous, liquid and solid states, depending on the inter-particle and self-driving forces. Interestingly, in contrast to molecular systems, liquid and gaseous states of active matter do not coexist. We explain this unusual phenomenon by the lack of fast particles in active matter. We perform extensive numerical simulations and theoretical analysis. The predictions of the theory agree qualitatively and quantitatively with the simulation results. | https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-73824-4.pdf | https://scitechdaily.com/swirlonic-super-particles-physicists-baffled-by-a-novel-state-of-matter | A novel state of matter has been discovered by physicists at the University of Leicester. | |||||

The micro BL was generated on a tip bottom of a plate anode of copper, those shape was like a knife (about 5 mm wide). It was upwards driven by the electrical potential, dbg which various kinds of traces were deposited on the copper plate: transport 01; micro BL, the generation of carbon films, and rotational eruption, called micro tornado, explained by The Nattoh Model (2).

The phenomenon was called Electro-Nuclear Collapse (ENC) in order to distinguish from the gravitational collapse. ENC occurred with a special state of an atomic or molecular cluster, itonic cluster. It was alternatively called micro Lightning (BL), because its size was about 100 μmφ and several curious property were common with natural BL. ENC was easily induced not only by electrical discharge but also by other techniques such as ultrasonic vibration, heating, compression, fission and laser and electron beams. Furthermore it was suggested that ENC of micro BL could occur in natural violent phenomena such as earthquake and volcanic eruption. They were really observed during the volcanic eruption of Mt. Usu (Hokkaido island in Japan) in 2000 (2). This paper described a brief review of ENC of micro BL and observations of micro BL and its ENC during the earthquakes near Kouzu-shima island (Tokyo in Japan) in 2000.

4743 | Book | Hein, S. | 2017 | Black Swan Ghosts: A sociologist encounters witnesses to unexplained aerial craft, their occupants, and other elements of the multiverse | Mount Baldy Press | What happens when you come into contact with a phenomenon so controversial it can destroy your career? New bonus feature—Stunning witness video interviews, links now embedded in the eBook text at the end of some chapters. Black Swan Ghosts is an investigation into how our society treats witnesses to unexplained events, unidentified aerial objects, and mysterious beings. It’s a topic that I once dismissed as being weird, fringe, and kind of crazy. Something I’d avoid. But after getting involved in the subject of Remote Viewing and getting to know participants in this previously classified government program, I began to encounter more and more highly credible witnesses to these hard-to-explain phenomena. And after a while, the weight of the evidence overcame any doubts I had about the authenticity and veracity of these subjects. This is an investigation of why our society is so reluctant to engage and address the critical issues raised by such phenomena. Why are we afraid to take the subject seriously? What are the consequences to the witnesses? Exactly what kind of universe do we live in? Includes witness stories from a former Air Force and commercial pilot, children of high ranking Air Force officials, an Aerospace engineer, a former NASA astrobiologist, a retired U.S. government remote viewer, and many others. You’ll hear and see what it’s like to come face to face with the unknown. It’s now time for their stories to be heard. And it’s time we all started listening. Now includes video interviews, on the BlackSwanGhosts.com website, with many of the witnesses in the book. | https://blackswanghosts.com/ | ||||||||

Barkla and the J Phenomenon: A Case Study in the Treatment of Deviance in Physics | Social Studies of Science, 6(1976) pp307-47 | Department of Sociology, University of Lancaster, Cartmel College, Bailrigg, Lancaster, LA1 4YL, UK | Bob Greenyer speculates that 'J-Radiation' was of EVO origin | Barkla, J Radiation | The history of science is replete with claims which have been the subject of heated controversy 1 Sometimes the rejection of 'revolutionary' claims by the orthodox is vindicated as relatively simple explanations of the problematic ’events’ subsequently come to light. Sometimes the initially implausible or eccentric claims are triumphantly vindicated as a doubting orthodoxy either eats humble pie, or attempts to represent the new wisdom as something it has always believed. But sometimes the eventual demise of an unpopular claim is surrounded by a confusion of innuendo, inconsistency, unsubstantiated assertions, and plain ignorance; there often appears to be no consistent account of the claim’s rejection, and predominant reasons given in terms of strict rational criteria may seem to require further qualification. The ’J phenomenon’, a complicated set of experimental claims and preliminary theoretical forays by the British physicist C.G. Barkla, is a good example of a case of the third type. It was a scientific ’error’ on the fringes of ’orthodox’ physics which lasted long enough to generate over fifty scientific papers. The J phenomenon never received an absolutely final and clear 'explanation' in terms which would justify its 'rational' rejection by the mainstream. The case reflects a deep gulf of incommensurability between groups pursuing two different idioms of science, a difference which I have argued elsewhere2 had been extant, if less marked, for nearly two decades before the climax (but not the end) of the controversy in 1923. | shorturl.at/vwHU6 | |||||

I again observed the same behavior in 2005 on work funded by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority as PI, with co-investigators Serge Lebid, EVP NanoSpire, Inc., Prof. Eric Eisenbraun of Albany Nanotech, and others. The extreme pressure and temperature of cavitation bubble collapse was compressing dissociated water H+ and OH- ions at the bubble interface into solid, faceted macrocationic crystals possessing an equilateral triangle crystalline subunit. Reentrant jet impacts formed pit cross-sections that were equilateral triangles, regular or oval-shaped hexagons, twinned crystals such as hourglasses, or hybrids of triangles and hexagons. The presentation will provide an overview of data and theories addressing the structure and dynamics of crystallized cavitation re-entrant jets in coherently extracting zero point energy, triggering fusion and driving prebiotic chemistry.

Just how or why the events happen is the questionable part. John Hutchison has been providing ESJ with details on his work, as have a few others who have worked with him over the years. The picture consistently described is that of numerous experimental apparatus being operated simultaneously and interactively. "Events" occur, somewhat unpredictably. This is a format of accidental discovery through undefined mixture. It is exciting to the experimenter, yet frustrating to the scientist trying to sort out the interaction of the variables. Although recollection and details ore difficult, Mr. Hutchison describes some of his apparatus in this attempt to share with other experimenters. | https://hiroko.or.jp/wp-content/file/gravity-control/Space%20resonance/HutchisonEffect.pdf | ||||||||

The artificial generation of micro ball lightning (BL) during underwater spark discharges (USB) is presented. An atomic cluster in a special state was generated, called an "itonic" cluster, which could exist for a moment as a stable body and run around underwater as well as in air. The curious behavior of the cluster resembled BL in the natural environment. It was amazing that several new kinds of nuclear reactions ("electro-nuclear reactions (ENRs)") took place in the cluster. The most significant of ENRs among them was nuclear collapse, "electro-nuclear collapse (ENC)". Since the electromagnetic force is 40 orders stronger than the gravitational force, ENC was very easy to induce even in the laboratory. Nuclear transmutation (ENT) was also stimulated in the cluster. Experimental evidence for ENRs is shown. The mechanisms of ENRs is explained by the Nattoh model. | https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/829469/metrics#metrics https://sci-hub.se/10.1109/PLASMA.1999.829469 | ||||||

When the electrodes are connected, the electromagnet pulls up the vertical electrode, the circuit opens, after which the vertical electrode falls on the horizontal one. The chain closes again, the cycle repeats. In my devices, the voltage is up to 100V, the current is several A.

The Bohm-Aharonov Effect, Scalar Interferometry, and Soviet Weaponization | CIA: Approved for Release 2003/09/09 | Sep 9, 2003 | The Bohm-Aharonov Effect shows that, even in the absence of electrical and magnetic fields, the potentials case real effects to occur in the field-free regions. Using this principle, beams of pure potential without vector force fields (without E and H fields) may be deliberately produced and intersected at a distance to cause effects in the interference zone, in contradiction to classical mechanics. Essentially, energy may be produced directly at the distant interference site or extracted from it, without energy transmission through space. Implications for weapons built on these concepts are given, and several types of such scalar electromagnetics weapons are discussed. The use of "cold explosion" is detailed and evidence of its extensive testing is given. The basic mechanism for Soviet weather control over North America is briefly presented and a more extensive reference given. Evidence of massive Soviet weaponization of these effects for nearly three decades and of Soviet scalar electromagnetics weapons testing on a global scale exists in the open literature, Selected examples and related information are given in the Appendix | https://drive.google.com/file/d/14RU7QSptJZfyZsu_q6_v0yW6n6AX3bz0/view | |||||||

Many of these affects are shown in (2). Once the EV has dishevelled the electronic structure of the material it traverses, there is no ability to return to the original molecular or structural state. It is most likely that the material undergoing modification has entered the region of low permittivity.

He has replicate many of Nikola Tesla's works over the years, including the Death Ray, and a smaller Philadelphia Experiment. When John's Tesla coils, electrostatic generator, and other equipment created a complex electromagnetic field, heavy pieces of metal levitated and shot toward the ceiling, and some pieces shredded. Upon analysis and thorough investigation, the Canadian government dubbed this phenomenon the Hutchison-Effect. What is the Hutchison Effect? As with much of the new-energy field, no one can say for sure. Some theorists think the effect is the result of opposing electromagnetic fields cancelling each other out, creating a powerful flow of space energy. The Canadian government also reported invisible samples phasing in and out of existence. A Vancouver businessman, George Hathaway, heard about the Hutchison Effect in 1980, contacted Hutchison, and brought in a consulting engineer from Boeing Aerospace, and the Canadian government to form a company that would promote technology developed from the effect. They called this company Pharos' Technology. | https://www.hutchisoneffect.com/ | |||||||

With these rules or the "code" of reality entered, nature commenced. Those who are careful observers will not that many of the most important breakthroughs in a broad array of fields come from mimicking natural processes - whether biological or physical. Many life saving drugs are chemically altered forms of molecules found in plants, for example. Yet in in mankind's attempt to harness the power of the atom via nuclear fusion, all sorts of artificially imposed schemes have been attempted to produce and maintain the conditions scientists believe are essential. But the simplest route to an energy panacea has been largely ignored except by a minority of exceptional open minded theoreticians and experimentalists - learning to create man made, artificial ball lighting. Yet true breakthroughs are taking place as we speak due to a number of different technologies being developed that utilize macro-scale variants of Kenneth R. Shoulders' EVOs (Exotic Vacuum Objects) as their driving mechanism. Although these self-organizing plasma structures which form during out of equilibrium conditions (such as the negative resistance regime of a plasma discharge) can induce a wide array of phenomena - altering hydrogen into different forms, inducing exothermic nuclear reactions, and extracting energy from the zero point energy field - they are all the same phenomena despite being utilized in different devices. Once this is recognized, progress towards a future with infinite possibilities can be accelerated. | https://www.lenr-forum.com/forum/thread/6220-an-open-secret-the-scalable-ubiquitous-evo-at-the-core-of-safire-the-e-cat-skl-t/ | |||||||

4677 | Report | 2009 | Exotic Vacuum Objects (EVOs) based on the original discoveries of Ken Shoulders | A collection of references about EVOs | EVO, EV, Charge Cluster, zero point energy | An EVO (exotic vacuum object) is just another name in a long line of names for a new electronic effect. In the past, it has been called an EV (Electromagnetic Vortex or Electrum Validum for strong electron), charge cluster (this could be just a piece of dirt with no net charge) and CCT for charge cluster technology. Whatever it is called, the effect can best be characterized by how it is measured using instruments capable of interpenetration in terms of somewhat similar phenomenon. The nearest class of instruments with useful capabilities is those used for measuring the properties of electrons and ions. Using these, we will assemble a series of observations characterizing the observable entity properties that are most pertinent to new energy and propulsion uses. Use of contemporary buzzwords like zero point energy, space energy or ether and other areas of mystery will be avoided here as they might falsely bias judgment of the true events being measured. It will not even be assumed that the entity being interrogated is an assembly of electrons, even though electrons were put in during formation and an equivalent number of electrons were output at the time of dishevelment. This writing is thus an attempt to analyze the actions and basic characteristics of the entity while being as free as possible of preconceived notions about its structure. This aim is heavily biased toward the entities use instead of its name or theory of operation... | http://oriharu.net/evo/ | ||||||||

They connected this effect with the deuterons “cold fusion”. A significantly larger number of investigators did not have found this effect, so they do not agree with the proposed explanation and consider the results of Fleischmann and Pons being a mistake or an instrumental artifact. In this paper experimentally proved that the Fleischmann-Pons effect (of burst type) is caused by an exothermic reaction of a recombination of the atomic deuterium accumulated in electrodes during electrolysis of the electrolyte. This reaction is similar to the reaction of thermal runaway in electrochemical batteries with aqueous electrolyte. Thus experimentally proved that the Fleischmann-Pons effect is not associated with cold fusion of deuterium nuclei. While the Fleischmann-Pons effect (of the weak type) is due to a partial recombination of the deuterium and the oxygen, i.e. in this case the excess power is apparent or imaginary. It is shown that the established mechanism of Fleischmann-Pons effect explains all the currently known experimental facts. The recommendations are given allowing a reproduction of this effect without a failure. | https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jelechem.2020.114237 | |||||

The quantum theory was based on the concept of single conventional of deuterons in Nickel-metal due to Bose-Einstein condensation, it has supplied a consistent description and explained of the experimental data. The analysis theory model has capable of explaining the physical behaviour of deuteron induced nuclear reactions in Nickel metals upon the five-star matter, it's the most expected for a quantitative predicted of the physical theory. Based on the Bose-Einstein condensation theorem formulation, we calculation the cold fusion reaction rate for D-D transfer to Nickel-metal using the astrophysical S factors (S = 110KeV — barn) for d(d,p)T, d(d, n)3He reactions and (S = 110 × 10^6 and S = 110 × 10^13KeV — barn) for D + D × 4He + 23.8MeV reaction. The results of the calculation for three reactions give rise a wide compatible with the other experimental works. | https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1757-899X/871/1/012085/pdf | ||||||

The heat was produced in the fuel sample (mixture of nickel powder and LiAlH4), which was added to a nickel cell, and then the cell was placed in a sealed stainless-steel chamber. Results of two runs are demonstrated. Excess heat lasted for seven days in the first run. The first run maximum excess heat power was greater than 450W and the excess heat energy was evaluated to be 78 MJ for the first 72 hours.In the second run, excess heat lasted for 120 minutes after external heating was turned off, andthe maximum excess heat power was 450W. The self-sustaining effect can be observed clearly when power was off in the second run. The maximum heat energy from possible chemical reaction was estimated to be 26 kJ, a value much smaller than the excess heat energy. Therefore, excess heat could not originate from any chemical reactions and it might originate from a nuclear reactions. | https://brillouinenergy.com/newwebsite/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/AnomalousHeat_Jiang_2015_English.pdf | ||||||

This fact was referred to the condition of absolute purity of the metallic surface being essential to the first absorbing action, as it is to the action of platinum-foil or wire in determining the combustion of the gaseous mixture of oxygen and hydrogen, as observed by Faraday. A new method of charging the metals with hydrogen at low temperatures has lately presented itself, which is not without interest. When a plate of zinc is placed in dilute sulphuric acid, hydrogen is freely evolved from the surface of the metal, but no hydrogen is occluded and retained at the same time. A negative result was indeed to be expected from the crystalline structure of zinc. But a thin plate of palladium immersed in the same acid, and brought into metallic contact with the zinc, soon becomes largely charged with the hydrogen, which is then transferred to its surface. The charge taken up in an hour by a palladium plate, rather thick, at 12 degrees amounted to 173 times its volume | https://www.jstor.org/stable/112545 | ||||

In fact, the occurrence of AHE requires specific conditions such as deuterium/protium absorption in the wire, sufficiently high temperature, as well as presence of strong non-equilibrium conditions such as those induced by thermal gradients, variations of pressure, and electric/magnetic fields. Previous experiments provided a strong evidence for the role of a flux of active species through the wire or at the wire surface. Though various techniques to induce a flux were tested before, and have been instrumental for a phenomenological understanding of AHE occurrence, they could not provide a solution for a sustained and exploitable energy production. | https://www.researchgate.net/publication/347706575_Stimulation_of_LENR-AHE_by_high_power_electric_pulses_on_coiled_coaxial_Constantan_wires_at_high_voltage_and_temperature | |||||||

It now goes by the name of Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR), although there are about 20 other names for the topic.1 Condensed Matter Nuclear Science (CMNS) is the more comprehensive name given to the field. The central empirical feature of LENR is the ability to release nuclear energies (MeV) with chemical energies (eV). That enables the achievement of high energy gains, defined as the ratio of thermal energy from an LENR system divided by the electrical or other energy needed for stimulation of LENR. Gains of over 25 have been measured in strong experiments. A gain of 800 was reported in one paper by a good scientist in Japan, but it has not been verified or repeated. | http://173.254.3.220/iemagazine/issue141/ICCF21.pdf | |||||||

The prerequisites, biological, and physical causes and methods for optimizing the process of isotope transmutation are discussed. Experiments on transmutation of various isotopes (including the production of rare stable isotopes and the deactivation of reactor radioactive waste) are also considered. It is shown that the most likely physical mechanism of LENR in biological systems is connected with the formation of coherent correlated states of interacting particles. This process is accompanied by giant energy fluctuations, which can exist for a long time, sufficient to produce nuclear reactions. This process happens automatically in nonstationary potential nano-wells, which are formed in various biophysical and biochemical processes in growing biological objects—for example, during cell division, at DNA replication, at the entrance to ion channels in plasma membranes, and in other places of growing objects. | https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780128159446000129 https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-815944-6.00012-9 | ||||||

Despite the rejection, LENR continued to be investigated by many researchers worldwide. The LENR Research Documentation Initiative (LRDI) is underway to mitigate the loss of records of investigators who began their work shortly after the announcement and are now leaving the field. The LRDI began with a pilot project with Edmund Storms and now includes 15 participants. Projects typically include publications, unpublished reports, electronic and hardcopy files, lab descriptions and notebooks, publications by others (LENR library), and photos, recordings and other media. The records found in an LRDI project are supplemented with one or more rounds of recorded and transcribed interviews. Where possible, timelines of LENR research are prepared. Each project is documented with memos for each component followed by a report of the investigator’s research contributions. Preservation of these records for additional review and analysis as progress is made in the field may contribute to the realization of LENR and its energy benefits. The long-term prospects of humankind will be improved greatly with new sources of abundant, inexpensive and clean energy like LENR. | http://www.infinite-energy.com/iemagazine/issue150/GrimshawIE150.pdf | ||||||||

This reaction mixture can produce significant amount of hydrogen under irradiation of light with wavelength longer than 440 nm, meanwhile, partial potassium nuclei are continuously converted into calcium nuclei. The concentration increase of calcium element in the mixture dispersion is accompanied with the process of proton reduction (H2 evolution) and proton nuclear reaction which yields 3He and 4He. Those results indicate that some of calcium elements in nature might originate from potassium-calcium transmutation through low energy nuclear reaction (LENR) under very mild conditions, which might be related to the yield of negative hydrogen (H-) during photocatalytic hydrogen generation. | http://www.jmcchina.org/html/2017/5/20170501.htm | ||||||||

The team consisted of Boeing Research and Technology, Boeing Commercial Airplanes, General Electric, and Georgia Tech. Using a quantitative workshop process, the following technologies, appropriate to aircraft operational in the N+4 2040 timeframe, were identified: Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Hydrogen, fuel cell hybrids, battery electric hybrids, Low Energy Nuclear (LENR), boundary layer ingestion propulsion (BLI), unducted fans and advanced propellers, and combinations. Technology development plans were developed.The team generated a series of configurations with different combinations of some of thesetechnologies. The higher heating value of LNG reduces the weight of fuel burned, but because of heavier aircraft systems, more energy is used for a given flight. LNG fueled aircraft have the potential for significant emissions advantages and LNG enhances the integration of fuel cells into the aircraft propulsion and power system.An unducted fan increases propulsive efficiency and reduces fuel burn. Adding a fuel cell and electric motor into the propulsion system also leads to improvements in emissions and fuel burn. A n aft fuselage boundary layer propulsor also resulted in a fuel burn benefit. | https://core.ac.uk/reader/10568000 | ||||||||

Sci. 4 (2011) 173–187 | Nuclear products, Pd/D co-deposition | In the Pd/D co-deposition process, working and counter electrodes are immersed in a solution of palladium chloride and lithium chloride in deuterated water. Palladium is then electrochemically reduced onto the surface of the working electrode in the presence of evolving deuterium gas. Electrodes prepared by Pd/D co-deposition exhibit highly expanded surfaces consisting of small spherical nodules. Because of this high surface area and electroplating in the presence of deuterium gas, the incubation time to achieve high D/Pd loadings necessary to initiate LENR is orders of magnitude less than required for bulk electrodes. Besides heat, the following nuclear emanations have been detected using Pd/D co-deposition: X-ray emission, tritium production, transmutation, and particle emission. Experimental details and results obtained over a twenty year period of research are discussed. | http://coldfusioncommunity.net/pdf/jcmns/v4/173_JCMNS-Vol4.pdf | |||||||

Sci., Vol = 31 | Heavy Electron Catalysis of Nuclear Reactions | Band structure, Catalysis, Heavy electron, Muon, Transmutation, Tunneling | Our proposed three-body model attempts to understand the transmutations that have been observed in many experiments. The model combines several phenomena to derive the conditions where a binding potential energy and an electron?? Coulomb bond can combine to attract the ions together to form a new nucleus. We hypothesize that heavy electron quasiparticles are created by placing electrons near inflection points of a lattice band diagram and last about one collision time (~10 fs). They are placed near the inflection point by injection of phonons carrying crystal momentum, which last picoseconds, long enough to create many generations of transient heavy electron quasiparticles. We consider the interaction of two ions, such as a nickel nucleus and a proton, separated by a distance x with an electron of mass m trapped between them. The increase in energy needed to confine the electron (Kinetic Energy of Confinement, KEC) ? 1/(mx2) from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle acts like a repulsive potential. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzd.pdf#page=67 | ||||||

We show how most of our predicted transmutation products are consistent with experimental data from a wide variety of LENR experiments, and how they can be triggered. Chemical physics recently discovered a new type of chemical reaction that concentrated most of the energy of reactants into electrons that were originally trapped between reactants. The reaction leaves the reaction product molecule relatively cool. Considering the rules of solid state physics, we apply the pattern of these chemical reactions to nuclear reactions, referred to as ?attice Enabled Nuclear Reactions? (LENR, also called ?ow Energy Nuclear Reactions?). The predicted nuclear energy release also concentrates the energy in electrons, energized inside the nuclear product. The nuclear products are predicted to be 'cold', implying non-radioactive, ground state. In some cases the excitation energy of the compound nucleus is sufficient to fracture it into more isotopes that were not originally present. The total attraction energy (coulomb plus nuclear) can overcome the quantum kinetic energy repulsion of the squeezed electron quasi-particles (Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle) when the effective electron mass exceeds a threshold value. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzb.pdf#page=385 | ||||||

The container consists of an inner container and an outer container, and the inner container is filled with deuterium or hydrogen. The outer container is evacuated, the inner container is heated, and abnormal heat generation is observed. Both hydrogen and deuterium gas produce excess heat power; deuterium produces more heat, lasting longer. When the inner container is filled with hydrogen a maximum of 5 watts of excess heat power is observed, lasting about 3 hours. When the inner container is filled with deuterium it produces higher power than hydrogen, with maximum excess heat power up to 13 watts, also lasting about 3 hours. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ZhangHsummaryofa.pdf | |||||

Best results are obtained when the electrolyte temperature is close to the boiling point. Stable excess heat is generated by events on or near the Pd cathode surface. In addition to the stable excess heat, heat bursts are sometimes observed. These occurred most frequently in experiments using 2 mm diameter tubes for the cathodes. Excess heat measured by isoperibolic calorimetry is directly verified by Seebeck envelope calorimetry. Experiments with D2 SO4 replacing H2SO4 in heavy water electrolyte showed that there was no affect on excess heat production. After electrolysis, localized concentrations of silver were found on Pd cathode surfaces. Three characteristic surface features, (1) craters with rims containing electroplated Pt; (2) cracks in the sample; and (3) palladium regions around the cathode edges are preferred locations for the occurrence of silver. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ZhangWSexcessheat.pdf | |||||

It is found that ADCs differ from the diffusion coefficient under stress-free conditions when either the initial concentration or the chemopotential-step (or flux-step) is taken to be a nonzero value. At the same time, effects of other parameters on values of ADC are discussed as well. The theoretical results are qualitatively consistent with the available experimental data.

It is found that the exited hydrogen flux is much less than the charging current since the hydrogen combination reaction takes place at the outer surface.

It is found that the resistivity ratio is somewhat higher than the resistance ratio with the same x value and their difference depends on the internal stress-state arising from hydrogen insertion. Another fact that has been omitted in past work is that the temperature coefficients of PdHx resistance and resistivity increase while x > 0.7.

On the consideration of the finite size of the nucleus, the third wave function does not diverge while r approaches to zero. Its radial wave function has below characteristics: (1) the angular-momentum quantum number l must be greater than the principal quantum number n; (2) l must not be 0 or 1; (3) the electron-cloud distribution differs from the traditional one; (4) the electron is closer to the nucleus by comparison with that in traditional results.

Contrary to the conventional viewpoint, it is found that the selfinduced stress suppresses the departure of the concentration distribution from the linearity. The residual stress profile depends on the phase of metal-hydrogen system. However, the diffusion flux is independent of the existence and magnitude of self-stress; this conclusion means that the conventional steady-state method for measurement of the diffusion coefficient can be applied experimentally even while the self-stress effect is significant. Finally, although these results are obtained from the fcc metal-hydrogen system, our conclusions can be extended to the diffusion problem of other interstitials in solid samples. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ZhangWSeffectsofsa.pdf | ||||||

It is found that the change of the loading ratio with temperature depends on the absorption enthalpy, adsorption enthalpy and apparent activation energy of the exchange current density of the Tafel reaction.

It is found that the self-induced stresses enhance the absorption rate and may exceed the yield stress, especially when the thickness of the plate and/or charging current (or negative potential) increase. On the other hand, a plate with both sides exposed to electrolyte absorbs hydrogen more rapidly than that with only one side exposed to electrolyte under the same equivalent thickness and other conditions. Of course, the stresses developed in the former plate are always greater than those of the latter. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ZhangWSeffectsofs.pdf | ||||||

Chem., Vol = 458 | Voltammograms of thin layer Pd/H(D) electrodes in the coexistence of a and ?? phases | PdH, PdD, phase diagram, OCV | The kinetics of a thin layer Pd H(D) electrode at the coexistence of α and β phases in cyclic voltammetry are studied and the effects of various parameters are discussed. It is found that the voltammogram of the α ↔ β phase transition is trigonal in shape which differs significantly from those for diffusion and adsorption. The kinetic characteristics of the α + β mixed region are controlled by the deviation of parameters from the thermodynamic values. These results indicate that cyclic voltammetry can be used for studying the kinetics of phase transition occurring in a layer electrode. The present treatment is verified by comparison with the previous experimental results. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ZhangWSvoltammogr.pdf | ||||||

We find that the hydrogen concentration in PdHx is much less than the equilibrium value and give a simple criterion for the existence of phases occurring during CV. The voltammetric electro-sorption of H into Pd and electro-desorption of H from Pd are controlled by the adsorption of H on Pd and diffusion of H in Pd, respectively. By comparison with the previous experimental results, it is concluded that there are two sorts of adsorption, strong and weak playing key roles in H absorption into Pd at anodic and cathodic overpotentials (vs. RHE), respectively. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ZhangWSanumerical.pdf | ||||||

For experiments, the experimental device of cold fusion energy in HD-nickel system has been made. To create an ?ctive pseudocomposite? layer (offered in V.F. Zelensky, The Int. Conf. on Cold Fusion-20. Japan, 2016) on the electrode surface, an operating procedure has been developed for processing nickel electrodes of the energy generator. All the phenomena expected in the chemonuclear fusion scenario were observed in the 'verification experiment' (except gamma-radiation caused by the bineutron-nickel nucleus interaction). The conclusion is drawn that the chemonuclear fusion scenario successfully explains the process of intensive cold fusion in three fusion systems (2D?, HD? and (7Li?1H)gas-transitive metal), and thus, can form the basis for the development of cold fusion reactors. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=180 | ||||||

The material system has a resonant frequency associated therewith for a given operational environment. A structure is formed that includes a non-electrically-conductive material and the material system. The structure incorporates the electrically-conductive material at least at a surface thereof. The geometry of the structure supports propagation of surface plasmon polaritons at a selected frequency that is approximately equal to the resonant frequency of the material system. As a result, heavy electrons are produced at the electrically-conductive material as the surface plasmon polaritons propagate along the structure.

The experimental yields are compared with those predicted from a parametrization of the cross section and stopping power at higher energies. It is found that for Ti and Au target the enhancement of the D(d,p)T reaction is similar to that observed with a deuterium gas target (several tens of eV). The dependence of the yields on the bombarding energy corresponds well to the screening potential parameters Ux=250?15 eV for Pd and 601?23 eV for Au/Pd/PdO.

Measured were thick target yields of protons emitted in the D(d, p)T reaction from the bombardment of Ti metal with deuteron energies between 2.5 and 6.5 keV. The obtained yields were compared with those predicted by using the parameterization of cross sections at higher energies.

This type of detector was able to observe directly a beta ray spectrum of tritium and give a genuine number of tritium in studying gas phase system. For this purpose, the gas proportional chamber was made and was operated in low background. The detection limit was 20 Bq in one liter of deuterium gas. Tritium searches in deuterium gas phase of several different systems were done by this detector. The clear spectrum of beta ray originated from tritium decay could not be observed due to low concentration of tritium in the examined deuterium gas phase. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=380 | |||

The quantilativite calculation of the multistage chain reaction theory can explain some experimental facts of cold fusion. Further, we propose a new mechanism, the nonlinear barrier penetration. Its quantilativite results show some new characters even in a simplied model, for example, the penetration factor has a periodicity with the barrier thinckness. This is a new method which may be developed and applied further. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=315 | |||

Mass spectrum analysis of upper-cell gas and palladium cathode by a quadrupole mass spectrometer and tritium measurement in a sampled electrolyte were done by off-line techniques. Excess heats up to approximately 4 to 5W were produced with the cold worked and copper layered (0.95 /.1 m) cathode. However, during excess heat, nuclear products (neutrons) were not observed over the 3 a limit line of background level. In a few mass spectrum analyses, slight increases of helium-4 peaks were observed. However, helium-4 might not absolutely increase, because it was difficult to calibrate the mass spectrometer to deduce total amount of helium-4 from samples. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=51 | ||

The excess power generation correlated to the sample distortion was observed with 100 % reproducibility. The peak excess power was estimated as much as 8 W with the input being 0.1 W. The total amount of excess power was at most 39 kJ, indicating that the energy generated was of the order of 1 eV per D (H) atom. Nevertheless, None of the nuclear products was detected clearly. This result suggests that the highly reproducible excess power observed in the present experiment is correlated to the structural phase transition at the Pd surface. We discuss the origin of the anomalous heat generation within the condensed matter physics. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=420 | ||

The real time observation has been performed by high-resolution quadrupole mass spectroscopy (0.001 amu at 4 amu). The amount of 4He gas produced was closely correlated with the evolution of excess heat, and it increased with the loading ratio of D to Pd. At the highest loading ratio of D to Pd, we have also observed T production by detecting HT. The amount of HT increased in the final stages of 4He production. The system of H-loaded Pd (Pd:H) heterostructure, on the other hand, produced neither 4He nor T. Furthermore, the energy spectrum of charged particles detected during these experiments has revealed that a particles with an energy of 4.5-6 Me V and protons with an energy of 3 Me V were emitted from the oxide surface of Pd. The amount, however, was extremely small in comparison with that of 4He detected. These results indicate that a new class of nuclear fusion occurs in the Pd:D and Pd:H systems. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=185 | ||

A neutron burst took place in 2 runs out of total 37 runs. Using an optical microscope, black deposit was observed to cover the tip surface of two positive electrodes. To the contrary, the tip surface of other 35 electrodes was observed to keep its beginning appearance. X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy have revealed the black deposit to be carbon, mixed with palladium at the surface of palladium point electrode. The total amount of carbon impurity in the palladium electrode and in environment deuterium gas dose not account for the large amount of carbon on the tip surface of electrode. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=211 | |||

Excess neutron counts were observed using D2 loaded Pd points under DC high voltage applications. To the contrary, no count except background was observed with other points under the similar test condition. The observed highest counting rate was 61 counts for 10 seconds from the Pd is equivalent to the neutron emission of ~ 1?10 ^5 n/(s*cm^3). A DC discharge (<10 kV) between point (Pd) and plane (brass) electrodes in high pressure D2 (2 atm) produced neutrons.

Low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) is evaluated for application to several areas including space travel, in which the vacuum of space cannot provide any propellant or other materials. It is assumed that LENR may become a practical source of useable energy. Several things must be considered for a successful journey from Earth to Mars, including the trip rout, the type of rocket, energy source, and the spacecraft speed. These are discussed for space travel using LENR. The velocity of the rocket increases as the mass flow rate decreases. The shortest route of a trip to Mars is selected to reduce cost. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedz.pdf#page=42 | ||||||

Electroanal. Chem., Vol = 360 | Reproducible tritium generation in electrochemical cells employing palladium cathodes with high deuterium loading | electrolysis, Pd, D2O, tritium, H2O, loading | Reproducible tritium generation well above background has been observed in tightly closed D2SO4-containing cells in four out of four Pd wire cathodes of one type. Tritium analysis was performed before and after each experiment on the Pd, the electrolyte and the gas in the head space. No tritium generation was observed in four identical Pd cathodes in H2SO4 cells operated at the same time under the same conditions. A cyclic loading-unloading regime with low current densities, rather than the usual continuous constant current regime, was employed to attain D/Pd and H/Pd loadings of 1 ? 0.05 reproducibly. D/Pd loadings greater than 0.8 ?0.05 appear to be necessary to generate tritium. The largest amount of tritium, generated in 7 days of continuous electrolysis, was 2.1 x 10E11 tritium atoms, compared with a background of 4 x 10E9 tritium atoms. The concentration of tritium and its axial distribution in the Pd were determined and concentrations of up to 9 x 10E10 atoms/g Pd were found compared with a maximum background of 5 x 10E8 atoms g-1. The T/D ratio in the Pd is about 100 times larger than in the electrolyte or gas and indicates that tritium generation occurs in the Pd interior rather than at its surface. No tritium generation was observed in two other types of Pd electrodes in D2SO4, despite the attainment of D/Pd ratios near 1:1. Thus high D/Pd ratios appear to be a necessary but not sufficient condition for tritium generation in D2SO4 electrolysis. Experiment particle Reproducible generation of tritium during the electrolysis of heavy water is reported here; it takes place when loading ratios D/Pd near unity are achieved. A closed cell design is used, with gas recombination, and the head space analysed for tritium before and after electrolysis. A light water cell in series with the heavy water cell was run every time as a control; there were also Pd controls. A glass frit was used to physically separate the liquid cathode and anode compartments. The electrolyte was 0.5 M D2SO4, to avoid alkali leaching of the cell walls by LiOD. Cathodes were 1 and 2 mm cold-drawn Pd wire, and 2x0.5 mm cold-rolled ribbon Pd alloyed with 5% Li. To achieve high loading, repeated charging and discharging at low current densities were required (described in a patent appl.). Only the 2 mm Pd wires produced T, and none was produced in the control cells. Enhancement factors, that is T(after)/T(before) of up to 50-60 were found in the four successful runs, and amount to around 10^5 T atoms/cm^2/s, or of the order of 10^11 atoms/cm^2 over the whole run; a survey of previous work by others (10 groups) shows a range of 10^9 - 10^15 T/cm^2. Most of the T is in the liquid phase; but the four Pd wires that were successful also had more tritium inside the PdD after the experiment than before, so this must have a nuclear origin. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WillFGreproducib.pdf | ||||||

No tritium was detected in four control cells, containing H2S04 in H2O, employing Pd cathodes cut from the same wire spool. Tritium amounts were from 7 x 10^10 to 2.1 x 10^11 atoms, corresponding to average generation rates from 5.1 x 10^4 to 2 x 10^5 atoms/sec/cm^2. In all cases, D/Pd and H/Pd loadings of 1 ? 0.05 were attained. A cyclic loading/unloading regime rather than the usual continuous constant current regime was applied to attain these high loadings. Tritium analysis was performed in Pd, electrolyte and the gas head space of the sealed cells. Maximum tritium concentrations of 8.9 x 10^10 atoms/g Pd, 180 times the detection limit, were found in the D-loaded Pd cathodes, none in the Η-loaded Pd, Also, no tritium within detection limit was found in 150 unused Pd pieces. Of these, 13 were cut randomly from the same wire spool as the four D-loaded Pd cathodes. The probability that the tritium in the latter was due to random spot contamination is computed as 1 in 2,380. It is concluded that the tritium was generated by nuclear reactions in the Pd. However, no tritium was detected in four D-loaded Pd cathodes of a different type in spite of attaining loadings D/Pd = 1. Different metallurgical history and impurity contents may play an important role. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WillFGtritiumgen.pdf | |||

Reproducible tritium generation has been found on palladium cathodes with deuterium loadings approaching one deuterium atom per palladium atom. Tritium generation has been observed on four out of four such highly loaded cathodes. No tritium has been observed in four light water control cells operating simultaneously. Total tritium analysis was performed on all hermetically sealed cells before and after each experiment. Tentative evidence is presented for neutron generation and a single anomalous heat excursion. A novel high-pressure electrochemical cell is also described which employs a fuel cell approach, thereby avoiding oxygen evolution. Two anomalous heat excursions have been observed in this cell with excess power values up to 30%. Gas phase experiments of the Wada-type have been performed on palladium, using electrical discharges to activate the palladium. Neutron bursts up to 280 neutrons in 128 microseconds and tritium enhancements in the palladium of up to 25X background have been observed in the palladium. In both electrolytic and gas phase experiments, the tritium distribution in the palladium wires was found to be non-uniform. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WillFGstudiesofe.pdf | ||

A great discrepancy was found between the experimental results and the theory. The experimental values of the ratio I-EBS were between four and thirty times lower than the ratio I-IBS predicted by theory. This discrepancy may be due either to the generation of characteristic x-radiation in the experimental arrangement used or to the fact that the theory is not applicable to tritium on account of its extremely low atomic number and beta-ray energy. The wide scatter in the experimental results may likewise be due to the generation of characteristic x-radiation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WickendenDsomeinvest.pdf | |||||

It had been noted that experiments (8-cell) with smaller cathodes (larger perimeter to area ratio) performed better than experiments (SEC system) in which larger cathodes (smaller perimeter to area ratio) were used.? In an effort to increase the magnitude of the excess power output, slits were introduced into the larger cathodes to increase the perimeter to area ratio.? Two SEC systems were used during the course of these experiments.? Using data from the first SEC system we find that four of seven (57%) of the experiments with slit cathodes showed an excess thermal power, averaging 322 mW (ranging from 136 to 509 mW) and five of fourteen (36%) of the experiments with no cathode slits gave excess thermal power, averaging 171 mW (ranging from 115 to 233 mW).? Overall, 10 of 13 (77%) of the experiments with slit cathodes showed excess power while only 5 of 15 (30%) of the experiments with no slits in the cathodes showed excess power.? This result shows an increase in both the magnitude and reproducibility of the excess power output effect.? In addition, Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) was performed on several cathodes (post-experiment) where greater concentrations of unexpected elements are found in those cells that showed excess power compared to those cells that did not show excess power. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WarnerJelectrolys.pdf | ||||

Eight runs, about six hours each, over a period of 16 days, gave an average of 1.8 watt excess thermal power output compared with a light water control cell. This is about twice the excess obtained in co-deposition experiments. The excess thermal power output ranged from 0.5 ? 0.1 W to 2.6 ? 0.1 W, which was an average of about 17 % more than the input power.

X-ray, gamma ray, charged particle and neutron ware measured simultaneously. A series of anomalous experimental phenomena ware observed. A clear peak at 3.2 MeV was observed, when a pre-loading TiDx was applied. This peak became evidently, following the implantation dose. Therefore, it is considered as the alpha peak from D-T secondary reaction. Its maximum ratio to D-D reaction reached 0. 0015. This ratio was much higher than prediction value based on the secondary reaction of D-D fusion. Some unknown high energy counts located from 3.5 MeV to 17 MeV in charged particle spectra has been observed for many times. Sometimes the counts concentrated in limited area, which appeared like a peak but poor statistics. The phenomena were difficult to be reproduced. In the X-ray spectra, there were many characteristic peaks from Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Zr, Ru, Pd etc elements. The gamma radiation up to 30 MeV was measured with a HpGe detector. Comparing to background, the intensity of foreground was a few orders higher. There was also a few counts distributed around 17 MeV and 24 MeV, which might be the gamma ray from D(d, gamm)4He reactions. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=490 | ||

The peak could be seen in almost every run of experiment. The counts of this peak kept almost constant ratio (about 0. 07) with the D-D proton peak that took place within the deuteron implanting ?ange. Therefore, this unknown peak was considered as charged particle from unknown reaction (e.g. proton/rom D-D fusion) that occurred deeply (beyond the deuteron range) inside the palladium target plate. The reaction should be induced by some other trigger conditions except the direct beam-target effect of deuteron implantation. Similar phenomena were also observed, while the Ti. Fe, Ni. Cu and Mo foils (plates) were applied as targets, but the depth profiles of the reaction zones were quite different for different targets. Temperature of target has made some influence on reaction place. Both of cluster ion (D3+) and isolated deuteron (D+) beams were applied to the experiment. The results have shown that each isolated deuteron could induce higher rate of unknown reaction, compared with each deuteron of cluster ion beam. The experimental results show that the unknown reaction had some kind of dependence on ion states, target materials, temperature, deuterium loading ratio, etc. conditions. These factors are similar to the usually considered key factors in other type cold fusion experiments. There might be some relations between this unknown reaction and Cold Fusion phenomena, but further identification is necessary to find the origin of the peak and the relation with CF phenomena. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=485 | ||

The differences between the application of these two kind beams were obtained by comparing the radiation yields of X-ray, gamma-ray, charged particle and neutron induced by each deuteron of two kinds of beam at the same velocity. The fusion rate induced by each cluster-deuteron in the energy region below 40 keV/d was higher than that induced by each isolated deuteron at the same velocity. However the fusion rate induced by each cluster-deuteron was less in the energy region above 50 keV/d. Ratio of the fusion rate induced by each cluster deuteron to that induced by each isolated deuteron was energy dependent. The yield of X-ray induced by each cluster deuteron in the energy region from 10 keV/d to 100 keV/d was higher than that induced by each isolated deuteron at the same velocity. The average ratio of their X-ray yields is about 2.6. Based on above results, it is considered there might be an enhancement of interaction cross-section in both nuclear and atomic levels in lower energy region. If the size of cluster ion is grown, the enhancement might be increased more. Therefore, the concentrated deuterons (deuterium in larger clusterstate) could have some relations with 'cold fusion ' phenomena in high loading metal. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=480 | ||

In this report, the experimental results are introduced, including the explosion occurred, and neutron and tritium measured in electrolysis experiment. The sensitization phenomenon of x-ray film was found in CMPT experiment. It is considered that the reason of sensitization is derived from the chemical reaction and the anomalous effect in metal loaded with deuterium. Burst neutrons were produced from an electrolyzing Pd rod. Pd and Ti were gas loaded and temperature cycled. X-ray images were produced. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=175 | ||

However, based on our own experience the results of experiments depend heavily on each material. Even if for the same material, it seems that the performances of the materials from different manufactories are different.

Most of laboratories were not able to reproduce the observations and among the results of experiments there are obvious inconsistencies. It has been realized that even if the 'cold fusion' happened, its signals would be quite weak. Thus for sake of confirming the presence of 'cold fusion', it is desirable to use detection techniques which have high collecting power, low background and can stably work for long time. CR-39 plastic track detector is able to work in passive and time-integrated modes and has a number of unique merits in comparison with electronic detectors. In gas-loading experiment, if a piece of CR -39 film is clamped on the surface of a metal foil of Pd or Ti, charged particles emitted by deuterated metal can be collected by the CR-39 foil with 2 pi solid angle. The information on charge, energy, location and direction of the emitted particles can be determined from track parameters. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SIFthescience.pdf#page=184 | ||

The current densities were increased in steps in a long duration of electrolysis. During static charging, the Pd electrode was removed from the cell and partially outgassed in air. Resumpt ion of the charging produced several repeated heat bursts. In the dynamic test, cyclic torsion was applied to the Pd electrode during the charging . No abnormal reaction was found during the torsion , but sometimes repeated occurrance of heat burst was observed after the cease of torsion. Possible causes for the heat bursts are proposed. Heat bursts were produced while charging and after partial deloading. The Pd was subjected to torsion stress. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=85 | ||

What has to be exposed is a nuclear energy loss mechanism leaving little or no residual radioactivity. The requirements on the lattice for D? fusion are strict and appear to be limited to particular FCC lattices within a range of lattice parameters. A mechanical understanding is needed of how elevated local concentrations of deuterium are achieved while avoiding being trapped at defect sites. Using optical, RF, and experimental anomalous heat data the metallurgical requirements for the process is refined by considering a combination of diffusion, partial molar volume, positron annihilation data, defect kinetics, and electronic band structure allowing logical exhaustion to identify the kinetic structure that drives lattice nuclear fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzc.pdf#page=6 | ||||||

This process makes for efficient watt input, Qi, where 80% of these watts will be used as the acoustic input, Qa, to the 'Genie' sonofusion reactor.? In the reactor the transient cavitation bubbles, TCBs, produce billions of low energy high density jets per second that accelerate deuterons into foil targets producing excess heat, Qx.?? The Qx is determined by calorimetric measurements of experiments that use coolant water circulated to the surface of the well insulated reactor and data collected in the form of T in and T out at steadystate temperatures and coolant flow rate.? The total watts out, Qo, minus Qa ideally should equal zero, and we know that this calorimetry method has several losses that are not measured.? This makes the method very conservative when looking for Qx.? The Qx must make up those heat losses before making its presence known.? The result from experiments of system I using flow x DT x 4.184 for Qo - Qi = Qx shows that Qx values over unity are the norm.? System II used a more realistic calculation for Qx where flow x DT x 4.184 for Qo - Qa = Qx showed increased results. The calibration of the reactor with a Joule heater, JH, and substituting H2O for D2O produced measurements that showed the reactor calorimetry was close to zero Qx production as one would expect.? These measurements showed that heat in = heat out, a good zero indicating no Qx, for the operation of the 'Genie' sonofusion reactor. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WallaceKatributeto.pdf | |||||

The enabling process is non-nuclear and is one of controlling the Deuterium (D) chemical potential. After surpassing a high threshold D chemical potential, some of the true deuterium reactants, Dx's, are able to form. The formation of the new Dx's involves a change of state of the D's which reduces their repulsion forces and increases the probability of spontaneous fusion events. Once some of the Dx's are in place, there, indeed, is coupling between the non-nuclear and nuclear processes as shown by the experimental measurement of the heat produced. In this paper, existing experimental data are used to show how to enable and control the heat-producing process. A gas-loading technique is employed to achieve the required high D chemical potential and a reactor design and development program is outlined. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=414 | ||

The abstract begins: Spontaneous neutron emissions were intermittently detected from activated palladium rods well soaked with deuterium gas in a closed glass bulb. By the stimulation of the palladium rods with a high voltage discharge between the rods, a burst of neutron flux 2 x 10^4 times larger than background was detected. Atoms or molecules of mass number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 were found in the residual gas. Nuclear fusion in solid is interpreted in terms of the supersaturation of the solid solution of deuterium. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/WadaNnuclearfus.pdf | ||||||

Current bi-polaron theories of high temperature superconductivity, provide for the proper quantum mechanical preparation of the deuterons in the lattice. In free space, there is no way to offset the repulsive potential of the bare charged particles and it can only be overcome by the kinetic energy of the particles, i.e. , by Gamow penetration. is involved. The compound ilUcleus cannot alone take up the momenta of the impinging deuterons. It must disintegrate into two fermions carrying away the momenta. However, in a solid state environment this is not case. The repulsive tid potential is offset by the enveloping electron cloud. The local potential at a deuteron site is highly screened. Two electrons in the bi-polaron theory, may form a highly localized pair occupying the same or nearby site. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=409 | ||

We have considered the peculiarities and investigated the efficiency of the creation of a correlated state under a periodic action on a harmonic oscillator. This method is shown to lead to rapid formation of a strongly correlated particle state that provides an almost complete clearing of the potential barrier even for a narrow range of oscillator frequency variations.

This fundamental limitation stimulates the use of fast particles in the composition of a thermonuclear plasma, which leads at once to the necessity to solve the extremely complicated technological problems related to the formation and confinement of such a plasma. It is also obvious that the choice of the ?hermonuclear? approach makes any attempt of using (under terrestrial conditions) the reactions of synthesis on the base of isotopes heavier than deuterium or tritium absolutely unreal. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/VysotskiiVtheproblem.pdf | ||||||

The relation of the correlation coefficient of these nuclei to the probability of their passage through a Coulomb barrier in order to realize a nuclear reaction is studied. We have determined the form of such an optimum dependence of the correlation coefficient on time, at which the formation of a maximally correlated states of particles and the attainment of the maximum variance of their coordinates under a parametric pumping of a harmonic oscillator are possible. The conditions allowing the choice of those possible laws of variations of the frequency of a harmonic oscillator, which cause the formation of a correlated state, are established. The possible type of a parametric pumping which induces the fast asymptotic formation of the completely correlated state of a particle with giant increasing variance of the coordinate under the parabolic barrier and similar increasing of nuclear reactions probability are determined. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=97 | ||||||

Numerous experiments confirm the existence of water memory, which is activated under the influence of various physical fields (e.g., magnetic field, mechanical impact, abrupt temperature or pressure change) and may store information about such influence for many hours and days. Such activated water has altered physical and chemical (including biochemical) features.

Correlations between the material status and the occurrence of the effect as well as some changes in the electrochemical interface status have been observed. Although during the last two decades, in several calorimetric experiments the effect was observed to be well above the measurement uncertainty, the mechanism producing the excess power is not completely understood. So far, the lack of reproducibility has been responsible for the absence of a clear explanation of the phenomenon based on experimental apparatus designed to enhance the spectrum of information required to define the effect. Recently, In order to improve this aspect of this research, specific work has been carried out to investigate whether the excess power was produced concurrently with the emission of Radio Frequency from the active cathode. Suitable probes and triggering included in the RF experimental system revealed RF signal emission during electrochemical loading of palladium samples, and a correlation between the heat production, in active samples, and RF signal emission was found. The preliminary results highlight the importance of performing studies on the electrodynamic effects that may be involved in the phenomenon, and the importance of the design of appropriate instruments designed to investigate unexplored regions of metal hydrogen systems. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=327 | ||||||

The deuterium loading dynamics and its equilibrium concentration are mostly controlled by the metallurgy; a minimum threshold loading (D/Pd ~ 0.9) is necessary to observe the excess. The crystallographic orientation is also correlated with the phenomenon such that mainly 100 oriented samples gave the highest reproducibility. A specific cathode surface morphology, identified by means of the power spectral density function, represents an additional identified condition to observe the effect. Materials specimens respecting the characteristics described above have been used to obtain a transportable reproducibility. Designed materials giving excess power have been produced but the amplitude of the signals and full reproducibility are not yet achieved. Other features of the material such as the nature and content of impurities and defects seems to be crucial in obtaining the required palladium characteristics. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=66 | ||||||

K. | 2008 | Material Science on Pd-D System to Study the Occurrence of Excess Power | ICCF-14 International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science | Washington, DC | Material Science on Pd-D System to Study the Occurrence of Excess Power | materials, electrode surface morphology | A recent joint work [1] identified the crucial role of material science in improving control of the Pd-D system to enhance the production of excess power during electrochemical loading of palladium foils with deuterium. Very high reproducibility, close to 100%, in loading Pd up to D/Pd ~1 (atomic fraction) was achieved. High loading about the threshold value of 0.9 is considered necessary to achieve the effect. This work demonstrated it is necessary but not sufficient. As a consequence, the focus of our research moved to the material properties of cathodes, especially surface characteristics, and an effort to correlate these properties with cathode performance during electrolysis. This paper describes the material properties examined that appear to produce excess heat. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVmaterialsc.pdf | |||||

The excess heat was observed with a signal well above the measurement uncertainty, with up to 70% of reproducibility.

Recently, a number of experiments have identified nuclear reaction products that are attributed to hydrogen or deuterium interaction with the host metal. Consequently workers have renamed this field? as 'Low Energy Nuclear Reactions in Condensed Matter'. This work has used a variety of configurations and a variety of loading techniques giving reaction products ranging from Helium-4, Tritium,? to an array of heavy elements. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVstudyoflat.pdf | |||

The differences between a 'black' film and a pure nickel film 'blank' behaviour are showed. The black Ni-hydride film has been obtained by a short electrolysis with 1 M? Li2SO4 electrolyte in light water. A shift in the minimum of the observed reflected light occurs, together with a change in the minimum shape, i.e. its half-height width increases. This two phenomenon are due to the change in the electronic band structure of the metal induced by the electron added in the lattice by hydrogen. The changing of the electronic structure, revealed by the laser coupling conditions, leads to consider that an hydride phase was created. Both the blank (not hydrogenated) and black (hydrogenated) specimens were taken under He-Ne laser beam at the reflectance minimum angle for about three hours. A SIMS analysis was also implemented to reveal differences in the isotopic composition of Cu, as marker element, between the blank and black films, in order to study the coupled effect of electrolysis and plasmon-polariton excitation on LENR processes in condensed matter. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVanalysisof.pdf | |||

The working conditions allowed to obtain a clear signal from the investigated phenomena. Neutron activation, SIMS and high resolution Mass Spectrometer analysis yielded? experimental data greater than the measurement error and well above the detection limits of the instruments. The isotopic abundance has been studied for some elements and a strong difference as been observed between experimental data and natural values.

Results concerning the reproducibility of the phenomena, theoretical studies and certain unknown nuclear effects in metal-hydrogen systems have been published by several authors. It has been shown that positive ions (i.e. deuterons) confined by means of a quadrupolar electro-dynamic containment around palladium lattice tetrahedral sites (lattice ion trap) can dramatically decrease their mean distance. In the proposed picture the coherent oscillations of the Fermi level electrons of the metal atoms seem to have a dominant role in the deuterons dynamics. In this work the dynamics of the particles is studied in the trap coordinate system, rather than in the particles relative ones, since in this way it is possible to follow the position of a moving particle (e.g. deuteron or proton) inside the metal lattice cell. The lattice e.m. signal has been described as an oscillating dipole one. Such a description allows us also to study the behaviour of the moving particles when their trajectory is close to the metal lattice atoms. The calculations confinn the collision mechanism and show an interaction effect between the moving particles and the metal lattice atoms. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=403 | ||

A remarkable similarity between the above mentioned quadrupole radio-frequency trap and the palladium lattice structure allowed a classical study of the dynamics of two deuterons moving within the Pd lattice around tetrahedral sites [3,4]. The theory of the harmonic oscillator with time dependent frequency has been reviewed by introducing an operator which is a constant of the motion [5]. In this paper a quantum description of a deuteron dynamics and its interaction with an other one inside the lattice ion trap is carried out taking advantage of an oscillating behaviour that can be traced back to a quantum harmonic oscillator. The calculations show, in both treatments, a reduction of the mean distance between the particles. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=236 | ||

Ion confinement in a quadrupolar trap is known to be strongly influenced by the initial conditions and trap parameters. The considered system is a lattice ion trap for deuterons, supposing that over a certain concentration they occupy the tetrahedral sites. The electron motions seem to have a dominant role in the dynamics of two deuterons moving around such lattice sites. A mathematical model allows us to describe, with a computer simulation, the deuteron dynamics and reveals an approach mechanism that could strongly decrease the mean distance between two positive charges embedded in a lattice. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=158 | ||

Fundamentals for a Maximum of Efficiency | theory, ICCF-5 | The problem of converting the heat produced by cold fusion into work, meets with a classical limit consisting in the second principle of thermodynamics, because the heat produced within electrolytic cells is released to the heavy water, and remains at a low thermal degree. However, this paper draws attention to the existence of ideal thermodynamic cycles the efficiency of which is considerably higher than the efficiency attained by the corresponding Carnot cycle between the same temperatures. In addition to this, it can be shown that combinations of these cycles can attain even higher efficiencies. Owing to the characteristics of these cycles and combinations of cycles, and being also possible to put them into practice, they could be taken into consideration for projects aiming at the transformation into work of the heat produced by cold fusion or other heat sources at low temperature. Discusses energy conversion methods that have a higher efficiency than Carnot. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=438 | ||

Both Bacillus and Pseudomonas isolates solubilised magnesium trisilicate under in vitro conditions either in the presence or in the absence of glucose. Bacillus megaterium isolated from soil solubilised talc, feldspar and magnesium trisilicate by releasing silica in solution. This also exhibited growth exclusively on silicate in the absence of a carbon source and after removal CO2 in the head space of the flask containing medium. Bacillus mucilaginosus, a silicate solubilising species, exhibited growth on acid washed sand (pure quartz) and also in silicic acid in the absence of carbon source revealing the capability of the bacteria to utilise silica or silicate for its growth. The carbon analysis by SEM with EDAX revealed the presence of carbon in cells grown exclusively on silica suggesting the biological transmutation of silica to carbon. The ability of silicate solubilising bacteria to grow exclusively on silica or silicate in the absence of carbon reveals not only their ecological survival in a carbon-free environment in earth but also their likely survival in other celestial bodies. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedp.pdf#page=116 | ||||||

Discovered by Rontgen as long ago as 1895, this type of radiation occurs when the beta-electrons from a disintegrating beta-emitter are braked in the surrounding matter, being termed 'external bremsstrahlung' in this case. But in such isotopes the beta-electron is also accompanied by a type of radiation that is independent of the surrounding matter. This type is called 'internal bremsstrahlung', because it is generated by the electron inside the radioactive atom, during the decay process. It was first demonstrated by Aston 1) in the 'twenties' when, in the course of gamma-ray measurements on RaE, he detected a soft, inhomogeneous form of gamma-radiation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/vandeVateJtheinterna.pdf | |||||

It includes a Summary in English: The temperature stability of finely dispersed metaltritium systems in vacuum was investigated. The tritium content of the metals was measured by a new method based on the radio-activity of the tritium. Ways were found to prepare metal-tritium systems, sufficiently temperature-stable for technical applications. In addition, the experiments were found to be of interest in checking various classical and modern theories on the formation of hydrides. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/vandeVateJonderzoeki.pdf | |||||

High deuterium concentration in palladium is needed for application to the solid-state fusion. The first deuterium enrichment scheme makes use of the plasma ion implantation, which consists of a cylindrical palladium rod (target) preloaded with deuterium atoms, coated with diffusion-barrier material and immersed in a deuterium plasma. The second deuterium enrichment scheme makes use of the temperature gradient effects on the deuterium solubility in palladium. A heat source at temperature T2 and a heat sink at temperature T1 (where T2 > T1 ) are in contact with two different parts of a palladium sample, which has been presoaked with deuterium atoms and has been coated with diffusion-barrier material or securely locked in a metal case. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SIFthescience.pdf#page=304 | ||

The blue film is identified as PdO, and the bleached surface consists of nanocrystallites of metallic Pd, as proved by electron diffraction. An activated Pd plate 0.7 mm in thickness is capable of absorbing, in 1 h, about 70 at% of H or D, the saturation value, in hydrogen gas of 1 atm at room temperature. The atomic ratio of H absorbed in Pd has been estimated to be about 70% when Pd metal is in equilibrium with hydrogen gas of 1 atm at 25?. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/UchikawaHnewtechniq.pdf | ||||||

The excess counts were measured for a wild even after electrolysis. For the Ti samples annealed or cold worked, the burst-like GM counts over 200 cpm were often measured at low current densities below 10 mA/cm^2. The much higher burst-like GM counts over 1500 cpm were measured after electrolysis. Counts using a GM counter were observed when Ti was electrolytically loaded or deloaded.

Condensed Matter Nucl. Sci., Vol = 17 | 96 Cold Nuclear Fusion in Metal Environment | Deuterium, Excess power, Nickel, Palladium, Platinum | This paper discusses the mechanism of cold fusion with deuterium and other elements implanted in the potential sites of conductive crystals. Cold fusion in metals becomes possible due to the fact that the implantation of atoms in a crystal guides them to their p excitation levels, which are determined primarily by the positioning of free conduction electrons in a zone of potential sites. The excitation energy of the p-states is about 10?14 eV. The excited atoms? orientation in the crystal is not random but dictated by the crystal lattice's electrostatic potentials. Calculations show that the transparency of the Coulomb potential barrier, for example, in the case of DD-fusion, increases by about 60 orders of magnitude if two deuterium atoms meet each other in the minima of the conductor's potentials in the crisscross orientation. Most of the papers are devoted to the process of DD-fusion in the electrolytic saturation by deuterium in crystals, a process that is extensively studied in these experiments. This paper also briefly comments on other experimental results related to cold fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedp.pdf#page=101 | ||||||

Experimental results which point at release of excess heat and neutrons are shown. On the basis of these results the nuclear fusion method and the device for its realization are patented. The application of this nuclear fusion method for nuclear waste transmutation, in particular caesium-137, is considered. On the basis of the calculations given conclusion about applicability of the method is made. According to the experimental data, saturation of titanium with deuterium-air mix results in temperature increase of the titanium deuteride sample by 45?, in comparison with saturation of the same sample with pure deuterium. The calculation of excessive heat emission based on these results is given. The conditions necessary for the cold fusion reactions to occur are formulated. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=29 | ||||||

In our previous work on BEC approach to the theoretical interpretation of cold fusion, we estimated the transition temperature of BEC in palladium deuteride [1]. It was based on theY.E.Kim's work by using equivalent linear two-body (ELTB) method to the many-body problems of charged bosons trapped in an ion trap [2]. Recently, Kim et al. tried to explain the results of Rossi's experiment [3] by using the ELTB method for a mixture of different two species of positive charged bosons trapped to the harmonic potential [4]. In this study, we verified Kim's theory and considered how to perform the numerical calculation. A self-consistent iterative calculation was introduced and the coupled two equations corresponding to the two species of positive charged bosons were solved. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedl.pdf#page=604 | ||||||

In this study, we have tried to observe optical phonon induced by hydrogen-hydrogen interactions in Pd using Raman spectroscopy. This measurement can be done for the sample completely sealed in a glass tube cutting off the influence of the external air, because glass materials are Raman inactive. In the measurement chamber of spectroscopy device, scattered waves of the incident laser beam from the hydrogen storage Pd are detected and Raman shifts including the information about the optical phonon in the sample are derived. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TsuchiyaKobservatio.pdf | |||||

The discussion is based on the experimental data on which were obtained in Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) experiments lead for a number of years in Energetics Technology (Israel) (ET). The results of these experiments were presented in detail at the international conferences on cold fusion (ICCF). The main subject of these presentations was the description of experimental techniques and analysis of the results of calorimetric measurements, which in a number of cases indicated anomalous heat release, sometimes very significant, accompanying the process of electrochemical deuteration of Pd cathodes. However, the processes occurring in the cathode material, in particular, its structural transformations occurring during the absorption of deuterium by palladium, in these reports have appeared practically outside of discussion. This article partially fills this gap and, as the author believes, brings some clarity to the problem of searching for ``optimal'' palladium cathodes from the point of view of the probability of initiation of LENR. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedx.pdf#page=62 | ||||||

Offering of a special report dedicated to the soviet scientists works seems to be quite justified, since they are not well known to the western scientific community. Meanwhile, both quantitatively and qualitatively they bring a noticeable contribution to the world 'data bank' on this interesting phenomenon. It is even possible that some of these soviet works have been 'precursors' of the 'cold fusion era'. However, inadequate integration of our science with the western one, aggravated by scanty telecommunication media development, has slowed down the process of information exchange on CF not only with outer world, but also in our country . It is sufficient to say that the first Soviet National Conference on CF took place only recently in March of this year (March 22-26, Dubna-Moscow ). Figuratively speaking up to now we have been working behind the scenes and watching the play. Now it is time to raise the curtain. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SIFthescience.pdf#page=334 | ||

A, Vol = 373, Num = 35 | The effect of hydrogenation/dehydrogenation cycles on palladium physical properties electrochemistry | palladium | A series of hydrogenation/dehydrogenation cycles have been performed on palladium wire samples, stressed by a constant mechanical tension, in order to investigate the changes in electrical and mechanical properties. A large increase of palladium electrical resistivity has been reported due to the combined effects of the production of defects linked to hydrogen insertion into the host lattice and the stress applied to the sample. An increase of the palladium sample strain due to hydrogenation/dehydrogenation cycles in alpha -> beta -> alpha phase transitions is observed compared to the sample subjected to mechanical tension only. The loss of initial metallurgical properties of the sample occurs already after the first hydrogen cycle, i.e. a displacement from the initial metallic behavior (increase of the resistivity and decrease of thermal coefficient of resistivity) to a worse one occurs already after the first hydrogen cycle. A linear correlation between palladium resistivity and strain, according to Matthiessen's rule, has been found. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TripodiPtheeffectoa.pdf | ||||||

A, Vol = 373, Num = 47 | The effect of hydrogen stoichiometry on palladium strain and resistivity | palladium | The strain and the electrical resistivity of a Pd sample stressed by a constant tension have been investigated through a series of hydrogenation cycles in a continuous H stoichiometry [0 <= x <= 0.8] range. The isotropic lattice expansion for both 'as drawn' and 'annealed' Pd sample reveals a strain of only 1% from pure Pd to PdH0.8 in disagreement with literature data available; the measured effect is minimum at x = 0.13 (? + ? phase) and then from x = 0.6 (? phase) it has an exponential increase. The contribution of the mechanical tensile stress on the total relative elongation of the wire is also investigated. An increase of the Pd sample tensile strain after each hydrogenation cycle is reported for 'as drawn' samples, while for 'annealed' samples the reverse behaviour is observed. Moreover, annealed samples show considerably higher value of tensile strain compared to 'as drawn'. The variation of mechanical strain versus H content, for both 'annealed' and 'as drawn', has a maximum at x = 0.52. Strain variation and resistivity variation versus H content exhibit similar behaviour. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TripodiPtheeffecto.pdf | ||||||

In the present work, an ultra sonic target system was developed to form acoustic cavitation bubbles in the liquid Li, in order to investigate the effect of the enhanced dynamic motion of the target. It was found that the ultra sonic effect strongly depends on a target condition and the D+D reaction could be enhanced very much due to the liquid Li cavitation. In addition, the D+D reaction rate is not constant but time dependent. Preliminary analyses indicate that decrease of the Coulomb energy barrier is about 2000 eV for a relatively stable condition. On the contrary, the Li+D reaction shows no meaningful effect for incident energies down to 30 keV. The present results indicate that not only density increase but also another mechanism enhancing reaction rates should be exist in liquid Li acoustic cavitation process. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVproceedinga.pdf#page=74 | |||||

This process is referred to as Pd/Pd light water critical electrolysis. The conjecture that a nuclear transmutation process is occurring in this experiment is easier to test in this system, because it is easy to determine whether the elements detected on the cathode surface are impurities or transmutation products. We assume that the elements found only on the cathode surface, and nowhere else in the cell as contamination, namely iron, titanium, chromium and so on, must be transmutation products. Furthermore, countless Ohmori-type palladium craters were observed for the first time for this system, and these are evidence that nuclear reactions occurred at the electrode surface. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ToriyabeYelementala.pdf | ||||

It is shown that thermal conductivity enables the heat transfer of the energy released in repeated events without causing the lattice to melt. Consequently, continuous power is possible. It is argued that power of close to one watt can arise from a single nuclear active environment, NAE.

4211 | Conference Proceedings | Toimela, T. | 2004 | Effective Interaction Potential in the Deuterium Plasma and Multiple Resonance Scattering | Eleventh International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science | Marseille, France | Effective Interaction Potential in the Deuterium Plasma and Multiple Resonance Scattering | theory | Abstract The effective interaction potential for charged particles is calculated in the deuterium plasma formed in the surface region of the palladium cathode in the electrolysis of heavy water. It is shown that the Coulomb potential is overscreened producing, at certain distances, an attractive potential between deuterium nuclei pairs and also between the deuterium nuclei and the surface atoms. This behavior of the effective potential in the deuterium plasma can be regarded as a counterpart of the Friedel oscillations of the electron gas at zero temperature. Because of this attractive potential, there are bound states for the deuteron pairs as well as for the surface atoms and deuterons. In these bound states the equilibrium distance between the nuclei is of the order 0.15 - 0.2 ? depending on the number density of deuterons. The fusion rate is calculated for the bounded deuteron pairs and it is found to be of the order?? per deuteron pair for the highest deuteron densities. Furthermore, it is shown that larger fusion rates are possible for the deuterons bound to the surface atoms. This may arise by a process, where the trapped deuterons share the released energy collectively via a proposed Multiple Resonance Scattering (MRS) mechanism. It is then found that the 4He-channel is the overwhelmingly dominant fusion channel. Moreover, the appearance of the transmutation processes in this MRS procedure are briefly discussed. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ToimelaTeffectivei.pdf | |||||

By comparing the system constants (k=?T/?P) in both nitrogen and deuterium atmosphere we found an optimum current (8A) and a deuterium pressure (9??'104 Pa) in which the system could release a maximum excess power (more than 80W). The reproducibility was 16/16 and the excess energy released in the longest experiment was about 300MJ within 40 days, which was corresponding to 104 eV for each palladium atom. Analysis of the palladium surface with a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) revealed that some new surface topographical feature with concentrations of unexpected elements (such as Ag, Sn, Pb and Ca) appeared after the current triggering. The results implied that the excess heat might come from a nuclear transmutation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedl.pdf#page=596 | ||||||

(The loading ratios were D/Pd=0, 0.08, 0.10, 0.17 and 0.27.)? The results showed that static pulsed triggering produces a maximum excess heat effect of about 2.6 kJ within a half hour when the loading ratio of Pd was about 0.1 and input power was 25 mW. This corresponds to 4.9 x 10^-15 J/atom D or 1.8 x 10^4 W/cm^3 Pd. The reason the static pulsed triggering produced more excess heat than other two modes needs to be further studied. The proper ratio in the Pd lattice matching a suitable triggering power may be a key point for heat production. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TianJexcessheatb.pdf | |||||

Press | Tsinghua Univ., Beijing, China | Anomalous heat flow and its correlation with deuterium flux in a gas-loading deuterium-palladium system 4043 | heat, deuterium, D2, Pd, radiation | A special experimental device was designed to test the anomalous thermal effect of Pd with deuterium flux (Df ) caused by deuteron diffusion passing through a thin wall of a Pd tube under a D2 pressure difference across the Pd wall. It is found that the variation of the flux was the significant precursor of the anomalous heat, because a remarkable heat flow was detected when the Df? was becoming obviously larger. The experiment was repeated for more than 16 times, and the maximum heat flow detected was 4.8mW whereas the accuracy of the calorimeter is better than 30μW. There were no heat flow detected when the temperature of the device was increased and when the D2 pressure difference equaled to zero. Neither heat flow nor flux was observed in the control experiment using N2.gas. The results of TLD (Themoluminescence dosimeter) detection implied a nuclear origin of the heat flow because the dosage of radiation in reaction vessel was often higher than that in reference vessel. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TianJanomaloush.pdf | |||

Press | Tsinghua Univ., Beijing, China | 'Excess heat' and 'heat after death' in a gas loading hydrogen/palladium system | Pd, H2, heat, gas loading | 'Super-absorption' could occasionally appear when an H/Pd gas-loaded system was heated by an incandescent tungsten filament. The system-pressure was kept on in 10^-2 Pa for several hours without any aid of pumping. In this stage both 'excess heat' and 'heat after death' was observed once. By calibration, the feature constant of the system was 12.8?/W in maximum. When the 'excess heat' appeared, the system temperature was reached 153? at the highest whereas the stable inputting power was 0.45mW. When the 'heat after death' appeared?here was no power input to the system?he temperature of the system abruptly jumped up to 761?. In the former, 25kJ 'excess heat' within 12 hours was measured which corresponded to 180 eV/atom Pd. And about 2MJ 'heat after death' within 43 hours was corresponding to 13keV/atom Pd. The maximum excess powers in each case were 3.3 and 49W and the correlated power density were 230 and 3600 W/cm^3 Pd respectively. The variation results of concentration of Li-7and Li-6 and their abundance ratio in Pd suggested that the anomalous heat might come from a nuclear origin. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TianJexcessheat.pdf | |||

In our previous works, several conditions to achieve a high deuterium loading ratio of palladium were found. It is, however, often observed that the deuterium loading ratio struts decreasing after reaching a maximum value under a same electrolytic condition, and the maximum loading ratio could not be sustained for a necessary period of time to come up to observe any excess heat. To maintain such achieved high loading ratio, we have devised and confirmed a new technique based on a finding that a cell voltage during the electrolysis is one of the most important key factors to control such deloading. As the result of our new method, when the cell voltage is kept constant, accordingly electrolytic currents increase at a certain rate, the maximum deuterium loading can be maintained for more than 200 hours. It is found that the decrease in cell voltages is mostly due to the decrease in the deuterium overpotential, by measuring the deuterium overpotential on a palladium cathode. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=194 | ||

Sci., Vol = 33 | Mass and Heat Flow Calorimetry in Brillouin's Reactor | Excess energy, Hydrogen gas, Nickel, Pulse stimulation, System identification | Brillouin Energy (BEC) has continued performing calorimetry measurements on the metal (e.g. Ni)/ceramic/Cu coated ceramic tube (catalyst) in a H2 atmosphere with nanosecond pulses applied across the coatings. The Energy Research Center (ERC) has been examining and verifying BEC's calorimetry for over 18 months since 2 of the calorimeters have been moved from SRI International to BEC's laboratory. We have continued our testing of new materials, material fabrication techniques, and electrical stimulation methods to produce excess power and energy output. By applying fast pulses of several hundred volts and tens of nanoseconds long, the current follows the ??kin-effect? principle and is concentrated at the outer metal?eramic interface but returns through the bulk of the Cu. Two stimulation methods were used ? steady-state and dynamic. In the steady-state method, the pulse power is measured directly using fast oscilloscopes that record the voltage across the catalyst and a shunt resistor in series with the catalyst. The resistance of the shunt resistor is measured accurately under DC and pulse conditions. The input pulse power is determined by multiplying the calculated root-mean-square voltage and current and recorded every 10 s. Using a version of the system identification (SI) heat-flow model designed specifically for the BEC calorimeter, the power reaching the five temperature sensors is determined during simultaneous continuous ramps of both heater and pulse powers. The power emanating from the catalyst is determined during sequences of less frequent, longer duration, low voltage pulses (LVP) and compared to that found using more frequent, shorter duration, high voltage pulses (HVP). The power determined during the less frequent LVP is set as the input power during that sequence. The power of the stimulation pulses during the more frequent HVP sequences is maintained equal to that during the less frequent LVP. Then the calculated power output from the tube is divided by that calculated during the reference sequences, giving a so-called coefficient of performance (COP). We have also used mass flow calorimetry to determine COP. Low voltage, long pulses are chosen to match the input power from high voltage, short pulses. The low voltage pulses are not thought to stimulate LENR, while the high voltage pulses are. This provides a method to compare matching input power under conditions that stimulate LENR with conditions that do not. Any excess heat detected from the high voltage pulse condition is considered to be generated by LENR rather than resistive heating. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzf.pdf#page=39 | ||||||

Our isoperibolic (IPB) cell/calorimeter is operated as an isothermal compensation type calorimeter. Potential sources of error in this system are discussed as well the methods used to minimize them. In power compensation mode the cell is held at a constant temperature using a heater power feedback system and constant power pulses or DC power steps are added to the system, resulting in a reduction of heater power. The relationship between this heater power reduction and DC power passed along the reactor core yields a calibration curve at different temperatures that allows us to evaluate how much output power increased during a given stimulation pulse. The IPB cell/calorimeter was stimulated by commanding different pulse widths at constant amplitude with the pulse power held constant by appropriately varying the pulse repetition rate. At 250?300?C the ratio of output power increase to input pulse power varied from 1.0 to over 2.0 depending on the pulse width at constant input power. That ratio was always 1.0 at all pulse widths attempted at 600?C. These results have been seen tens of times. The amount of excess power was also dependent on the composition of the gas and the metal alloy coatings on the core. The outer layer of the core was always pure Ni. The composition of a multilayer metal?ielectric metal coated core was chosen to allow for reasonable hydrogen solubility and mobility at 300?C. The results of various experiments are discussed Importantly these results presented here ignore the heater power necessary to maintain temperature and the losses in the pulse generator, which can be several times greater than either the stimulation power or power gain. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=313 | ||||||

Condensed Matter Nucl. Sci., Vol = 19 | 110 Seeking X-rays and Charge Emission from a Copper Foil Driven at MHz Frequencies | Charge emission, Collimated X-ray emission, Karabut experiment, Up-conversion, Vibrations | The absence of energetic nuclear particles in the Fleischmann?ons experiment has been interpreted as indicating that a large nuclear quantum can be down-converted into a great many low energy vibrational quanta. Models that describe this also suggest that low energy vibrational quanta can be up-converted to produce nuclear excitation. Karabut's collimated X-ray emission has been interpreted as being due to the up-conversion of vibrational energy in a small cathode to produce excitation in 201Hg. To test this, we developed a new experiment to vibrate a copper foil with and without surface Hg, and we looked for X-ray emission and charge emission from the surface. Signals were observed in the detectors in both cases; however, the signals in the X-ray detector did not respect the absorption edge of the Be window and are artifacts; and the large current signals associated with charge emission did not charge a capacitor in a simple configuration. We conclude that both are artifacts. The absence of collimated X-ray emission in this case is interpreted as due to the absence of strong low energy nuclear transitions in the copper, and also as ruling out a candidate theoretical model involving up-conversion due to interactions with negative energy transitions. A new interpretation of the Karabut experiment focuses now on lower frequency vibrations in the massive steel cathode holder and vacuum chamber as responsible for the up-conversion, and transfer of the up-converted energy to surface 201Hg to produce the collimated X-ray emission. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=118 | ||||||

Generally, the D loaded metals yielded greater and more reliable excess energy than seen with the H loaded metals. The co-deposited PdDxon highly loaded PdDxwires yielded greater excess energy than the bulk wire hydrides or PdDxco-deposited on Ag wires as predicted by the calculations of Hagelstein and DeChiaro. The addition of a partial monolayer of a recombination poison yields a highly loaded PdDx cathode. Electro-stimulation of NiH(D)xwires have also shown excess energy, suggesting that renewed interest in this system may be justified. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=182 | ||||||

Highly loaded PdDx wires can disintegrate (?xplode?) to form microscopic particles when subjected to high current density pulses at 77 K.

This theory predicts the production of conventional nuclear products, such as y-rays, a- and B-particles and other charged particles in suitably defined solids, when the energies are modulated on the chemical, rather than nuclear, energy scale. Experiments were carried out in four categories. In one set of experiments, those designed to detect the emission of charged particles during the rapid deloading of metal hydrides on heating, results which may be attributable to anomalous charged particle emission were observed; however, at the present time, mundane experimental artifacts cannot be ruled out as sources of the observed signal.

We have shown that appropriately prepared Pd cathodes can reach high loadings in this new design and that the cells can be transferred to the calorimeter without degrading the cathode's or cell's performance. In all of the experiments the cathode deloaded at higher current densities, and ostensibly identical cathodes yield significantly different D:Pd loading/current density profiles. In the new cell design high purity Pd from IMRA Materials and Johnson Matthey have generally loaded better than recent lots of 99.9% Engelhard Pd. Pd that IMRA Materials cast in air with added CaB6 held its loading best at higher current densities. Electrolyte additives Al, Si, Nd and Sm had no perceptible effect on loading behavior. The regular addition of Cl- ion, similar to what might happen when topping up open cells, can increase or maintain loading.

Charged particles were detected by a NE102a plastic scintillation counter. The electrolysis was continued at low temperature at 4? for 3 hours. After then, the cell was warmed up to several ten degrees of Celsius scale. During the warming-up, we caught some anomalous pulse emissions of charged particles. The pulse shapes of the bursts were found to be complicated and the duration of the bursts was distributed from 40 to 100 nanosecond . Comparison of these pulse shapes and standard response for a single particle suggests that the burst is a pile-up pulse and consists of many particles. Pd foil was electrolytically charged from one side and charged particles were observed from the other side. A complicated pulse shape of burst emission was found which could not be used to identify the species. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=257 | ||

The abstract begins: We have tried to obtain evidence for electrolytically induced cold nuclear fusion by detecting charged particles associated with the nuclear reaction. Charged particles were detected by a conventional silicon surface barrier detector attached close to the thin foil cathode which formed the bottom of an electrolysis cell. The efficiency and signal-to-noise ratio of this system are higher than those of neutron detection systems, which made it easy to determine whether the fusion occurred or not. The energy spectrum measured with the electrolysis of D2O suggested that the nuclear reaction took place in palladium cathode. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TaniguchiRdetectiono.pdf | ||||||

This model is based on two new phenomena: the tunnel disintegration of an ionized deuterium molecule and the subsequent dipole disintegration of a deuteron. We calculated the probabilities of the neutron emission from condensed matter by considering the mechanisms of the dipole disintegration, especially the transition from the ground state to the decaying state. The results of the numerical calculation can successfully explain the important features of the neutron energy spectrum : the 2.45-MeV peak, the high-energy component at 3 ~ 7 MeV, and the large Tin ratio. This indi cates that the 2.45-MeV neutrons can be predicted by the dipole disintegration of the deuteron instead of the d-d nuclear fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=334 | |||

Especially, the 2.45-MeV peak found in the energy spectrum, which has been considered to be owing to the d-d nuclear fusion, is explained by this mechanism, and therefore the observation of 2.45-MeV neutrons may not be a direct verification of the d-d nuclear fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=325 | ||

Z. | Tsinghua Univ. Press | Tsinghua Univ., Beijing, China | A possible enhancement mechanism 4042 | theory, electron screening | An enhancing mechanism of nuclear fusions is presented, most part of which is within the framework of the traditional theories. In this mechanism, electron currents play an important role, which are induced by an externally applied field or counterstreams of free electrons which naturally exist inside, surface and outside of bulk metals. At places of electron currents, the electric potential becomes negative and there relevant nuclei gather and collide. Then, if electrons exist in close vicinities in addition, there the electric potential barriers are lowered further and the tunneling effects which bring about nuclear fusions drastically increase. Resultantly, the rate of nuclear fusions enhances as a whole. Then, if shape of the current can be sufficiently fine and strong the increase is more drastic. It is not clear that at present the mechanism can make enhance the fusion to any extent | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TanakaTapossiblee.pdf | |||

We have found that a certain degree of enhancement is available for commonly used material combinations in the field of condensed-matter nuclear fusion, and use of Ag, Al, Au, and Cu would particularly provide significantly larger enhancement. This electromagnetic boosting effect may have unknowingly benefited the experiments reported so far, particularly for the electrolysis-type ones, and its active utilization by proper material and structure choices can improve condensed-matter fusion systems further. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzd.pdf#page=6 | ||||||

Our results indicate that this electromagnetic boosting effect may have been unknowingly produced in the experiments reported so far, particularly for the electrolysis-type ones. Importantly, this plasmonic enhancement occurs in the case of an optical-power incidence as well as an electric-bias application. It is therefore important to design and optimize the experimental systems, including the choice of materials, structures, and operating conditions, while accounting for the plasmonic energy enhancement effect around the metal surfaces. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedz.pdf#page=158 | ||||||

Surface plasmons in metal nanoparticulates strongly interact with electromagnetic fields at their resonance, resulting in an intense focusing of the incident energy around the metal surface. It is therefore possible to take the advantage of such high energy concentration, under laser or electric power input, for instance by simply coating the conventional Pd-based fuel materials with noble-metal nanoparticles or nanoshells. This field-enhancement effect can be a powerful method to boost the fusion-triggering electromagnetic or optical energy to significantly improve the reaction rate and experimental reproducibility, and to create low-D-load fusion systems. Importantly, this enhancement scheme is applicable to both gas- and liquid-phase systems, and furthermore, not only for laser/optical power, but also for the conventional electrolysis systems due to the equivalency between light and electromagnetic fields. We also show that the conventional fusion-catalyzing metals of Pd, Ni, and Ti themselves intrinsically exhibit a certain degree of field enhancement for their nanostructured form. Therefore, we point out that this plasmonic effect may have been unknowingly produced particularly in the electrolysis-type fusion experiments reported so far. This field-enhancement phenomenon thus could be a clue to solve the mystery of the energy supplied to overcome the gigantic Coulomb barrier to produce the fusion reaction observed with visible rates, as well as a powerful tool for further technical progress. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=308 | ||||||

The Pd?i10/zirconia (PNZ10) and Cu?i7/zirconia (CNZ7) powders by melt-spun and calcination method were for AHE active material samples, and were re-used by additional calcination. An amount of 80?400 W/kg level excess thermal power Wex of sustainable continuity for several weeks has been reproducibly observed at elevated temperature around 300?C, by using re-calcined PNZ-type samples with D-gas, significantly in net D-gas desorption mode. Specific reaction energy (?-value) per D-transferred was very large as from 100 eV/D to 500 eV/D. Very weak (0.1?0.2 n/J level) neutron emission looked correlating with the rise-up heat burst of thermal power after joule heating started. These results can be of the circumstantial evidence of the AHE by the nano-metal D-gas interaction. Data of 50-140 W/kg level excess thermal power was repeatedly obtained by CNZ-type samples with H-gas at elevated temperatures after the saturation of H-gas absorption (endothermic) by sample. Excess thermal power of ca. 50?70 W continued for more than two weeks by 505 g CNZ7r (re-calcined) sample, with very strange evolution of the cooled-flat and oscillating TC4 RC upper flange temperatures. . | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzf.pdf#page=20 | ||||||

As the lifetime is much longer than the collision time of two-body interaction of free particles, the CMNR reaction rates are significantly (of the order of 19?20 in magnitude) enhanced if we compare with estimated reactions rates by the two-body collision formula. The basis of CMNR rate theory is reviewed in this paper by extracting essence of the TSC theory tools developed until now. Derivation of Fermi's golden rule with nuclear optical potential, rate formulas by Born-Oppenheimer wave function separation, estimation of bracket integral of inter-nuclear strong interaction rate, estimation of time dependent barrier penetration probability by the HMEQPET method for dynamic D(H)-cluster condensation/collapse process, and DD fusion power levels as functions of inter-nuclear d? distance and effective existing (life) time are given. A DD fusion power level of 10 kW/mol-dd-pairs is possible for a 1 pm inter-nuclear d? distance with 10 ato-seconds lifetime. The level of 2.8 nano-mol 4D/TSC formations/s may release 10 kW neutron-free heat-power with 4He ash. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=306 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 9 | Are Ni + H Nuclear Reactions Possible? | Clean fission, 4H/TSC WS fusion, Ni + H CF experiments, Ni + 4H/TSC capture, Nuclear reaction models | Various cases of possible orthodox nuclear reaction processes, including newly proposed 4H/TSC fusion by simultaneous weak and strong interactions, 4H/TSC + Ni induced fission products, Ni + p reactions and reaction by deuteron impurity, are comparatively discussed for feasibility. (1) Ni + p nuclear reaction is impossibly difficult to make the Coulomb-field penetration of proton through so many inner electron shells (K, L, M), usually non-active in chemical reactions, of Ni-atom. Also the proton capture with Ni-nucleus, if any with kW level power, should emit lethal prompt gamma-rays which have never been observed. So, this type of nuclear reactions is unlikely. (2) Deuteron impurity (1/6700 in H2 gas usually) may induce (3H+D)/TSC fusion to be considered. Conditioning of 3-dimensional symmetry of QM-wave function for TSC is however of problem to condense into microscopic neutral entity small enough for causing any strong interactions. (3) The newly proposed 4H/TSCWS (weak-strong interaction simultaneously) fusion is a plausible scenario to have clean products (3He and proton, or deuterons) with significantly enhanced reaction rates in Ni nano-particles, for rare-conditioned (as discussed) visible heat generation with very weak secondary neutrons (10-13 order of 3He primary product) and gamma-rays (10-11 order of 3He primary product). Degrees of the generation rate of 4H/TSC (t = 0) transient clusters in Ni-H nano-particles and the life-time elongation of 4H/TSC-minimum state are speculatively studied. The auto-recovery capability of Ni nano-catalyst is considered as the key. (4) The 4H/TSC + Ni-isotope capture-and-fission process, previously proposed in our paper of JCMNS 1 (2007) 86-96 is another plausible scenario, to result in generation of clean fission products in A < 60 mass region. More enhanced 4p + Ni to fission rates than the previous prediction is expected due to the possible elongation of 4H/TSC-minimum-state life time without complete nuclear break-up of the symmetric cluster under dynamic condensation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedh.pdf#page=113 | ||||||

Fractal nano-dips may make local deep adsorption potentials, through which rapid penetration of D-atoms (ions) into deeper Pd-local lattice (Bloch potential) O-sites of nano-particle may be induced, to realize full or over-full D(H) loaded state (x >1.0) of PdDx in a short time of the Phase-I process. Formation of D-clusters, such as 4D/TSC on surface may be enhanced at nano-dips. A phenomenological model of quasi-free D-motion under constraint of the Bloch potential within a global mesoscopic potential well is proposed for the Phase-II phenomena, where nuclear heating by 4D fusion reactions may rather steadily take place. Generation of collective mesoscopic potential well (CMPW) will make a Pd nano-particle with PdO working as ??esoscopic catalyst? which realizes very large D(H)-loading ratios and anomalously large chemical heat releases both for H-gas and D-gas loading. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedd.pdf#page=23 | ||||||

The present paper briefly reviews theoretical modeling, mathematical formulation and quantitative estimations of multi-body deuteron fusion rates, time-dependent screening effect by electron clouds, and time-dependent size of condensing clusters as 4D/TSC. TSC is the tetrahedral symmetric condensate and key idea for clustering and dynamic condensation. Final products of 4D fusion are mainly 4He nuclei with 2-5 MeV main component and 23.8 MeV minor component. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedc.pdf#page=277 | ||||||

An electron orbit in a 'd-e-d-e' quasi-molecular system of a face of 4D/TSC under time-dependent condensation makes a spiral track, finally reaching the center-of-mass point of the TSC, with a tail of time-varying effective wave length. The role and merit of the heavy mass electronic quasi-particle expansion theory (HMEQPET) method for approximating time-dependent TSC trapping potential and relating it to the estimation of time-dependent Coulomb barrier penetration probabilities of a 4D cluster is explained. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TakahashiAdynamicmeca.pdf | |||||||

Considering a transient condensation process of deuteron-cluster in focal points of metal-deuteride lattice, electron screening effect was theorized by the Electronic Quasi-Particle Screening Theory (EQPET) model for a transient deuteron cluster associating attracted electrons. Multibody resonance fusion of deuterons was proposed by modeling charged-pion exchange for strong interaction in very condensed deuteron cluster to lead to select the tetrahedral resonance fusion (TRF) of 4D and octahedral resonance fusion (ORF) of 8D as possible major reaction channels in extreme case. 4He is the final product of TRF and ORF. Tritium and 3He was suggested as minor products from 3D multi-body fusion. Visible but very small level production of neutron by D + D (2D) fusion was also concluded. Further extension of EQPET model is given to propose a dynamic Bose-type condensation process by orthogonally coupled two D2 molecules, which play a role of super screening of Coulomb barrier with quadruplet electronic quasi-particle to generate clean fusion product of 4He. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensed.pdf#page=68 | ||||||

Formation of quadruplet e*(4,4) electronic quasi-particle and octal-coupling e*(8,8) around lattice focal points with D-clusters which realize super screening for d-d and d-cluster Coulomb barrier is modeled for tetrahedral and octahedral symmetric condensations and discussed. Based on the electronic quasi-particle expansion theory (EQPET), modal fusion rates which are composed of 2D, 3D, 4D and 8D fusion rates with characteristic values for each mode are estimated for the tetrahedral and octahedral symmetric condensations. Based on given modal fusion rates we can estimate macroscopic cluster fusion rates (f/s/cc) by knowing time-averaged values of D-cluster densities. Several to few hundreds w/cc level fusion rates for 4D and 8D can be foreseen with major ash of 4He and a variety of secondary transmutation reactions, and neutron production rate by 2D fusion will be with 10-12 orders smaller magnitude than that of 4He production. Neutrons are therefore hardly visible in deuteron cluster fusion in condensed matter. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TakahashiAmechanismo.pdf | |||

The collective deformation of a Pd nucleus by multiphoton E1 resonance absorption in a dynamic PdDx lattice was assumed to induce low-energy photofissions via the selective scission channels within the lowest band (11-20 MeV) of channel-dependent fission barriers. Values of channel dependent fission barriers were calculated by using liquid drop model potentials for Pd isotopes. Fission products were analyzed in detail. Major fission products (FPs) are stable isotopes and the isotopic ratios of FP elements are very different from those of natural abundances. The present theoretical results have shown good agreement with the experimental data of Mizuno et al. [Denki Kagaku 64 (1996) 1660] and others in terms of Z-distribution, mass distribution and isotopic ratios. Selective channel photofissions with positive Q-values are possible for A > 90 nuclei, which may provide us with a clean method for the incineration for the radio isotope (RI) waste of nuclear plants. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TakahashiAproductiona.pdf | ||||||

We reproduced excess heat, however at much smaller levels (8 watts on average and 15 watts at peak), but with neutron emission rates that were twice as large as measured previously. Possible changes in the conditions of the two experiments are discussed; i.e., cell voltages and over-potentials, formation of thin MOS film on the Pd cathode surface and a mechanism enhancing the D/Pd ratio. Excess power density per cm^2 of cathode surface showed systematic change as a function of surface current density. This trend is consistent with results from many other authors. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/TakahashiAanomalouse.pdf | ||||||

The thermodynamic properties of the micro drops in a bubble,where the pressure is 1 atm, is represented by Laplace's equation, i.e. the pressure(P)-volume(V) curves for various temperatures and the pressure-temperature(T) curves for various volume are drawn. The P-V and P-T curves demand the presence of the surface structure of the liquid and is named here as super water. The P-T curve shows a negative slope increasing as the volume decreases.This property is analysed by the third Maxwell's thermodynamic equation that the entropy is negative . When a microdrop receives a negative pressure the phase change from the normal water to the super water occurs and heat is generated. As the actuation is not by energy,the heat is excess heat. This occurs in both light and heavy water. The cold fusion arises in the minimum microdrop of heavy water under high actuation,as the super liquid is supposed to be liquid plasma and violent concussion is given there. Another effect of the negative pressure to the microdrop is to make it work by increasing the volume like an engine. An actuated microdrop synthesizes a new material whose resolution heat is equivalent to that released in the absence of the synthesis. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=383 | ||

The both phenomena suggested much about the mechanism of the excess heat. Various data of excess heat including as high as 250 % were obtained for the former method for the drilled charcoal cathode by concentrating the current. It was found that there were strong correlation between the data and the each temperature rise in the beginning short time, suggesing that the excess heat is due to the same mechanism. Throughout the many experiments it was recognized that the active bubbling is essential for the excess heat creation, so another experiments as stated by the immersion type was tried. As expected the excess heat was detected also. From the both experiments, microdrops-in-bubble model was proposed for the excess heat and cold fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=388 | ||

Positive results for excess heat generation were obtained for 7 out of 3 1 experiments. No direct correlation between excess heat and radiations (neutrons and X-rays) were observed. Two clear and four marginal positive results for He-4 production were obtained in 1 1 closed-cell experiments. Proposed model of coherently-induced 3D fusion in metal-deuteride, for underlying physics of cold fusion, was first-time confirmed by D-beam implantation into highly D-Ioaded TiDx sample. Nuclear products of 'calm' 3D and 4D fusions are concluded to be Li-6 and He-4. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=378 | ||

The experimental condition was as follows. The cathode used was very hard charcoal. The anode was 0.3mm Pt wire. The electrolyte was 50cc of D20 or H20 with 0.25N LiOH.The anode and the cathode were set up in the electrol'yte so as the Pt wire to locate near the diameter of the hole. Making a hole as small as 0.3mm produced excess heat of 70%.Making a notch at the hole edge enhanced the excess heat higher than 100%. The excess heat for the use of H20 was about a half of that for D20. The current showed oscillation when the excess heat was large.A SEM examining of the charcoal showed that many uniform holes,as small as 1 micron, distributed inside the vessels are responsible for this anomalous increase in the excess heat. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=145 | |||

Very weak neutron emission was detected to show an inversely proportional correlation to the excess heat variation. To explain the observed anomalous results including our past results, the theoretical model of competing multibody deuteron fusions in transient PdDx lattice has been extended.

This results in a unique interface that acts as a one-way (rectifying) open gate. First identified in reduced polycrystalline titanium dioxide (an n-type semiconductor) to Group VIII metal particles, the interface significantly affects the Schottky barrier height resulting in electron flow into the metal particles from the reduced titanim dioxide (TiO2) based on their respective work functions. The result is a negative charge on the metal particles which is of sufficient magnitude and duration to provide cathodic protection of the metal particles from surface oxidation. In essence, the metal particles behave as a negatively charged electrode without an externally supplied power source. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensede.pdf#page=86 | ||||||

This requires: 1) one element of new physical theory, a far-from-equilibrium blackbody equation having a second temperature scale, and 2) a nuclear reaction selection method based in the Principle of Least Action. The model appears to predict nuclear transmutations observed in Miley????- nickel microspheres, without false positives, and provides a plausible explanation of loading and ignition processes, excess heat, no excess heat, and the absence of gamma radiation. The model shows how solar core temperatures can exist in a laboratory temperature device.

The low energy neutrons transform the pre-nuclear active state into an active state, i.e. display of features such as hot spots, transmutation and particle emission which, in turn, yields information on participating reactions and processes. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedk.pdf#page=148 | ||||||

He was respected for his expertise and knowledge by many including Dr. Martin Fleischmann and Dr. John Bockris with whom he shared many private communications both before and after the 1989 Fleischmann-Pons announcement that became known as 'cold fusion' or Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR). Stan quickly applied his expertise toward understanding the underlying processes involved. One of his first contributions, which has been widely used, is the use of codeposition to prepare the cathode. LENR is a very complex problem and Stan recognized that it was not going to be solved during his lifetime so he decided to document his thoughts in a book. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSchemicalas.pdf | |||||

This success hasn? come easily and is due to several factors. One key reason for this success was the courage of the SSC-Pacific upper management in allowing scientists to conduct research and publish results in a controversial field. The few journal editors, who had the fortitude to consider our work, also contributed to this success. This contrasts with the majority of their peers who, taking the path of least resistance, ignored our work out of hand and returned manuscripts with, 'the subject matter is not in the purview of the journal'. The reviewers also played a role in the successful publication of LENR-related papers. A multitude of reviewers, many outside the LENR field, had to put aside their biases and look objectively at our data.? In turn, the reviewers' relentless concerns forced us to tenaciously address their issues. Ultimately, the SSC-Pacific team published 21 refereed papers in seven journals and a book chapter, spanning 19 years beginning in 1989. This paper is a brief synopsis of those publications. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSspawarsyst.pdf | |||||

In the months and years that followed, other manifestations of nuclear activities in this system were observed, viz. tritium and helium production and transmutation of elements. In this report, we present additional evidence, namely, the emission of highly energetic charged particles emitted from the Pd/D electrode when this system is placed in either an external electrostatic or magnetostatic field. The density of tracks registered by a CR-39 detector was found to be of a magnitude that provides undisputable evidence of their nuclear origin. The experiments were reproducible. A model based upon electron capture is proposed to explain the reaction products observed in the Pd/D-D2O system. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSfurtherevi.pdf | ||||||

INTRODUCTION These introductory remarks illustrate the controversial climate that existed when the NRaD program investigated the anomalous effects the Pd/D system exhibited. These effects included, among others, excess enthalpy production at rates exceeding those usually associated with chemical reactions. The controversy concerns the origin of the observed excess enthalpy which, according to Fleischmann and Pons, is due to room temperature nuclear events involving deuterons present within the Pd lattice, hence, the term cold fusion. To avoid unnecessary arguments, this report refers to the phenomenon as the Fleishmann-Pons (FP) effect. | TR 1696 http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSanomalousb.pdf | |||||

ABSTRACT The mode of deuterium uptake during Pd-D co-deposition has been explored using galvanostatic perturbation techniques. The resultant potential relaxation curves exhibit four distinct potential?ime intervals where the relaxation process is controlled by the interaction between the transport of deuterium from the lattice to the surface to form adsorbed deuterium and the reduction of palladium from solution. These interactions are discussed in terms of the palladium + electrolyte interphase. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSdeuteriumu.pdf | ||||||

The electrochemical charging of Pd rods by deuterium involves a complex coupling of electrochemical, interfacial and transport processes. In order to predict the overpotential, surface coverage and bulk loading of the electrode during charging, a model has been developed that incorporates the essential features of these processes and involves variables such as the electrochemical rate constants, the bulk diffusion coefficient and the charging current. Features of the computed time dependence of the bulk loading are then compared with published experimental charging curves. New microscopic observations and X-ray diffraction data provide further evidence for the details of the charging process. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSabsorption.pdf | ||||||

[1] reported that nuclear events can occur when deuterium is electrochemically compressed within the Pd-lattice. These events were reported to produce excess enthalpy, tritium, and neutrons. The exact nature of these events and the conditions leading to their initiation are poorly understood. In fact, the existence of such events is questioned by many [2]. The present position among those investigating this problem [3] is as follows: enthalpy production is a non-steady state process whose rate depends on the nature of the electrode material; however, the observed steady state production arises from an averaging of small perturbations. Nuclear events are believed to occur on the electrode surface as well as within the electrode interior. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSonthebehav.pdf | ||||||

Reports presented at the First Annual Conference on Cold Fusion have indicated that, at best, only ca 1/10 of all attempts were successful in either producing excess enthalpy or yielding products associated with nuclear reactions. Here, we show that the Fleischmann-Pons effect can be reproducibly and rapidly initiated by employing electrodes prepared by electrodeposition from Pd2+ salts in the presence of evolving deuterium. The effectiveness of this procedure is examined in terms of tritium production. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SzpakSreliablepr.pdf | ||

Soc., Vol = 136 | On the Dielectric Breakdown of Water: An Electrochemical Approach | H2O, breakdown | The dielectric breakdown of water under static fields has been studied by i-V relation for 6 metals. The relations are quasi-linear up to a current density of a few A/cm^2. The limiting current continues for a few volts to a few hundred volts, depending on the metal. a glow develops at the electrode and becomes continuous at the end of the plateau, where the cd increases irregularly(breakdown). The breakdown potential does not depend on the field in the water. It occurs at about the same cd for most metals. When electrolytes are added, the cell potential at the breakdown is increased. Adsorbed layers and organic coatings increase the breakdown potential. Electrical energy storage in water is increased by ~10 times by coatings. The breakdown potential decreases with increase of the log of rate constant for H evolution on the various electrodes and with corresponding work function. The cell potentials for breakdown correspond to fields in the dielectric below that needed to dissociate it. The limiting current is caused by the formation of a H2-steam layer at the interface, which causes increase in the electrode potential at constant current. The H2-steam layer plasmolyzes. When the Fermi level in the cathode reaches the conduction band of water, electrons enter the water and remain stable therein. They interact nonadiabatically with water and are .the head of streamers. An analogous model holds for holes in the valence band. 'Dielectric breakdown' depends on the Fermi level of the electrons in the condenser plate and the semiconductor characteristics of water. It can be eliminated by modifying the electrode surface. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Szklarczykonthediele.pdf | ||||||

When the systems are electrically driven at higher applied voltage, a superhyperfine structure of sidebands appears with significant local in situ information. The RF emission proves that D is the LANR fuel and demonstrates that the deuteron, in the excited pre-4He state, is a free radical emitting from an FCC vacancy. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzf.pdf#page=87 | ||||||

This is potentially a very important source of energy because the techniques shown here, can increase the excess energy gain of CF/LANR reactions by at least 410%. In addition, by monitoring both the calorimetry and the Voc, detailed knowledge of the deuteron distribution and flows within the palladium are revealed. These experiments revealed that initially only one in 2300 deuterons takes part in the desired reactions of HAD excess enthalpy production, for a net utilization of 0.04% of the loaded deuterons at that time. This decreases over time. Integrated over the entire HAD regime, this deuteron participation levels falls, and eventually only 1 in 106 deuterons participates in the desired fusion reactions. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzd.pdf#page=25 | ||||||

The technology has been proven to work on more than two dozen US space vehicles. Yet, two problems exist: (1) NASA has currently only 1 kg of isotope exceeding the specifications requisite for space power delivery and (2) the safety of 238Pu. There is a need to consider alternative LANR systems. As a heat producing source, the Series 6 NANOR(R)-type components deliver up to 150 mW of excess power, and so less than a dozen of them could replace 1 g of 238Pu in the power density metric.

Only one state is the active, desired, excess heat (XSH)-producing state (??ode?). This is demonstrated by presenting calorimetry and other measurements of both modes during a single run, and by confirmation using CMORE spectroscopy. It is fortunate that LANR systems, when active, have distinct calorimetric and CMORE anti-Stokes-XSH linked signatures, because it explains why some CF/LANR systems fail to create 'excess heat' (XSH), and reveals unwanted reactions, XSH-quenching reactions and pathways. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzb.pdf#page=186 | ||||||

All the anti-Stokes peaks are relatively missing in the undriven mode for all of the nanostructured materials. Weak anti-Stokes peaks are elicited from Pd (and Ni and their alloy) nanostructured material in ZrO2. But when NANOR-type components are electrically driven, there is diversity in outcome. When driven in the avalanche mode, the anti-Stokes peaks differ considerably from those which appear during the excess heat (XSH)-producing or desired mode. The anti-Stokes peak(s) differ in energy, amount, and in what stimulates their appearance. However, normal anti-Stokes peaks return when the electrical drive creates ?valanche mode? characterized by higher electrical current at decreasing voltage. The avalanche anti-Stokes peaks are many, and they are lower energy than the XSH mode produced anti-Stokes peak (described main text). By contrast, successful cold fusion is heralded by a large increase in the anti-Stokes to Stokes (aS/S) ratio, and the generated anti-Stokes peak for the desired and XSH-producing state is very different from the avalanche-generated multiple anti-Stokes peaks. That XSHrelated peak is singular and at higher energy. This distinguishing, higher energy, single, anti-Stokes peak is also not seen in the ?ff? state or the avalanche (undesirable) mode. Our analysis finds that the excess-heat produced anti-Stokes peak is matched to the Stokes line of PdD. We also find that the several lower energy anti-Stokes in avalanche mode (unsuccessful regarding CF/LANR) are matched to the many Stokes peaks for zirconia. In the desired electric-driven XSH-producing mode, the two-terminal deuterided NANORr-type CF/LANR component has a measured Boltzmann Stokes ratio ~1.3. Analysis of the phonon gain heralds ~7^+/- 0 15 acoustic phonons assisting nuclear reactions and a core peak calculated Stokes temperature of circa 1645 K. Therefore, these findings confirm a role for PdD acoustic phonons in successful CF/LANR. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=142 | ||||||

This had lead to the identification of three (3) distinct regions of their electrical operation. We now report that the optimal power gain of NANOR R-type cold fusion components is found far below the breakdown voltage and that the power gain decreases continuously as the electrical avalanche threshold is approached. Beyond the region of electrical avalanche, the previously active preloaded LANR quantum electronic components then give a thermal output similar to a standard ohmic control (a carbon composition resistor). Therefore, use of this technique of driving an active CF/LANR nanomaterial component into, and beyond, their avalanche threshold, provides verification of the excess heat an additional way, which confirms that the calorimetry was calibrated. Also, this investigation indicates where, on the input power axis, to drive them for a maximum effective use. We also report that deuterium can fuel nanomaterial ZrO2?i systems, consistent with the previously report involving aqueous CF/LANR systems by Swartz et al.

Residual, late-appearing effects are complex. Importantly, at higher input electrical currents, high intensity fractionated magnetic fields demonstrate their own, new optimal operating point (OOP) manifold curve.

High Frenkel defects (FD) content (vacancy phase) metal samples of Pd and Ni were generated by a single treatment with a high voltage electron irradiator (2.5 MV electrons, 2500 Gray/s dose rate, single portal, 1.50?3.0 megaGray midplane dose) at room temperature. These irradiationsynthesized, vacancy-phase (ISVP) metals were examined for their room-temperature annealing rate using four-terminal conductivity measurements. We show that high dose rate supervoltage irradiated palladium and nickel can achieve saturation densities of defects at the level of a few tenths percent and that level can be followed with the appearance of lattice quakes repairing the damage. The most heavily irradiated samples developed incremental electrical resistivities of '4 ?!-cm, with rapid recovery consistent with room-temperature annealing. The early labile vacancy phase state of ISVP metals has a half-life '2.5 h. Lattice quakes are observed when electrical transconduction spectroscopy is used to monitor the lattice healing and vacancy recombination. The irradiation produced an effective increase in the cross-sectional area of the palladium wires (99.98%) pure) of '2.5% at 3 megaGray delivered, consistent with the literature. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedm.pdf#page=56 | ||||||

This is accompanied by complicated polarization/transconduction phenomena including an avalanche transconduction electrical breakdown, which has a critical role in excess heat generation. This paper presents a new generation of preloaded LANR (CF) activated nanocomposite ZrO2?dNiD CF/LANR quantum electronic devices capable of energy gain. These devices dry, glued into electrically conductive, sealed, configurations. The core is ZrO2?(PdNiD) with additional D2 and H2. They are self-contained CF/LANR quantum electronic components containing ZrO2?dNi? LANR/CF nanostructured materials which generate significant excess heat from applied electric fields. They also feature two terminals and self-contained superior handling properties enabling portability and transportability. Most importantly, the activation of the desired LANR reactions is, for the first time, separated from the loading of the substrate. Although their development has required control of their breakdown states and the quenching tendencies of nanostructured materials, these ZrO2?dNiD CF/LANR quantum electronic devices are potentially very useful because they are reproducible active nanostructured CF/LANR quantum electronic devices. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedl.pdf#page=538 | ||||||

A dual anode PHUSOR?-type Pd/D2O/Au LANR device was driven at its optimal operating point, with two electrical current sources; to drive, and examine by 4-terminal electrical resistance, the loaded PdDx cathode. An applied magnetic field ~0.3 T increases the LANR solution?? electrical resistance ~10-17% with a time constant in minutes. The incremental resistance increase to an applied H-field is greatest at low loading current. The incremental resistance increase from an applied H-field is greatest with the applied H-field perpendicular to the driving electrical field (E-field) intensity. The modified LANR deuteron loading rate equation indicates that an applied magnetic field intensity increases deuteron loading in a LANR system by the increasing solution resistance and limiting undesired gas evolving reactions. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedc.pdf#page=101 | ||||||

The aim of this paper is to show that a. Time-Space-Oscillation `TSO' connected to matter is a physical perspective able to explain CF and the Particle-Wave-Duality, even able to propose technical means for further development. According to this perspective a particle -even at rest- is joined to a real, centripetal TSO, a 'de Broglie oscillation', instead of a mathematical Schr?inger wave function1). This TSO-field propagates with velocity c toward a focus, where the particle is created as a flickering wave vertex, that can push an instrument trigger. Particles and nuclides including their Coulomb barriers, thus become endowed with phase dependency and a centripetal wave field, that can interfere in slits. This explains the Particle-Wave Duality and why the Coulomb barrier can be tunneled under certain phase conditions.. This TSO-perspective further hints at nuclear reactions of a 'centripetal' kind different from those based on 'translational collisions', described by present high energy physics. It is worth consideration because it gives accurate accounts for physical constants, particle masses and charges, while the nuclides appear as focal resonance-shells, able to arrange acc. to Mendelejev. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=182 | ||

The arc current varied from 20 to 25 A and was passed intermittently for several hours. The original carbon contained ~2 parts per million (ppm) iron, and the detritus contained up to 286 ppm of iron. The carbon rods remained cool 10 the touch at >2 cm from their tips. Adsorption of iron from water or the surrounding atmosphere was established as not being the cause of the increase of iron. There is a weak correlation between the iron formed and the time of passage of current. When dissolved O2, was replaced by N2 in the solution, no iron was formed. Hence, the mechanism 26C12 + 28O18 -> 26Fe56 + 2He4 was suggested as the origin of the iron. The increase in temperature of the solution was consistent with expectation based on this reaction. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Sundaresananomalousr.pdf | ||||||

Free electrons were focused on clustered deuterons that compressed the deuterons like a spherical piston, squeezing a Meso-Cluster (MC) of deuterons. The compressed clusters were different from the deuterium clusters used by A. Takahashi. A reaction pathway similar to muon fusion was observed. The RF applied at a deuteron resonance, produced charge neutrality in the plasma?? electromagnetic (EM) pathway where alpha production was observed. Each MC consisted of 2?100 deuterons. Here we will use 10 deuterons to describe the MC and its alpha production, within time frame A. The changing MC density, pressure, and temperature were critical to alpha production, within time frame A. The MC volume was about 10-39 m3 and compression force was continuously applied to the MC located at the target foil (TF) surface. The heat transport was fast, and MCs were confined by electromagnetic fields (EM) tangent to the MC interface and motion of the neutralizing electrons. It is conjectured in this paper that the neutralizing plasma in time frame A produced a shockwave (SW) using a single electron to form a D atom that fused two deuterons in the MC to create an alpha. Before the fusion reaction, the surface target foil atoms were cavitating for an active period of 100 ns duration with each RF cavitation resonance cycle (see the main text in Fig 4). . . . | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzc.pdf#page=49 | ||||||

The exposed bcc crystal lattice Ti target foil, TF, measured an average of 39 x 10^12 +/- 1.4 trapped 4He atoms. The fcc crystal lattices of Pd, Ag, Ni, and Cu target foils, particularly the two measured fcc Pd TF lattices produced ~ 0.35 x 10^12 trapped 4He atoms. This helium level was just above its background level, and 1/100 that of the bcc Ti TF. In the fcc palladium TF, SEM crater volume measurements show that most of the alphas are ejected into the circulating D2O, where they were measured in the gas phase. In 1994 the samples were run at LANL and measured at PNNL. The helium was measured by melting small TF pieces cut from the active center zone. Then each piece was placed in a crucible, and melted under vacuum, releasing all gases including background helium. These collected gases from one piece were pretreated; then were measured. The data was converted to total 4He atoms trapped in the active zone of the TF lattice. A total of 24 measurements for 3He and 4He on three TFs found no 3He but 4He in all 12 measurements. SEM photos of single ejecta sites were combined with calculations of old data that used knowledge gained from 23 years of cavitation experience that enhances the old data. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=296 | ||||||

The observed effect is described. Neither the characteristic gamma nor the neutron typically seen in the formation from two deuterons of 4He and 3He, respectively, is observed. The experimental arrangement is specified. A proposed model, based on cavitation-produced z-pinch jets in target-foil implants, is outlined. It involves formation in the implants of a BE condensate that provides the source of the deuterons and whose recoil ensures energy-momentum conservation. The model accounts for all experimental results. It also provides a guide for future work on sonofusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedm.pdf#page=85 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 8 | Model for Electromagnetic pulsed BEC Experiments | BEC, Deuteron, Sonoluminescense, Superconductivity, z-pinch | Sonofusion experiments, which incorporate transient Bose Einstein condensates, BEC, have recently focused on related sonosuperconductivity. Cavitation jets implant high-density deuteron clusters into a target foil. Clusters are then squeezed by accelerated charges that form dense transient EM pulses. Cavitation and the associated sonoluminescence phenomena, used as a measuring tool, helps develop and explain related experimental results. Two outcomes, sonofusion and sono-superconductivity both produce D+clusters in reactors of different geometries. MHz reactor No. 1 is driven by a disk piezo and has produced excess heat, Qx, using the foil target and other products, including 4He. The newMHz reactor No. 2 is driven by a cylindrical piezo lowpower with a concentric wire target with transient cluster steady state concentration near the wire surface. The target?? steady state cluster coverage may satisfy a sono-superconductivity subsurface cluster connectivity during the MHz?? 100 ns collective sonoluminescence pulse. It was anticipated that ambient sono-superconductivity was possible but so far has proved difficult to measure. Cavitation D2O bubbles in both reactors were controlled by three main parameters for the two reactors: temperature, pressure of Ar gas over D2O, and acoustic watt input; Ti, Pi, andQa. The z-pinch jets??ontents of deuterons and electrons were implanted, with an induced picosecond transient charge separation. This charge separation produced an electromagnetic, EM, cluster compression pulse that formed a high-density BEC environment, as the EM pulse pressure overwhelmed repulsive deuteron cluster pressure for that picosecond. This model used unique attributes of the high-density transient deuterons to produce sonofusion in reactor No. 1 and sono-superconductivity in reactor No. 2 near ambient temperature. The measurements showed the presence of sonoluminescence pulses, implanted plasma, and heat pulse ejecta sites. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=81 | ||||||

SF controls a naturally occurring phenomenon with cavitation-induced bubbles and their high energy density transferred to transient jets that implant deuteron clusters into a matrix or lattice. The SF path to clusters can be extrapolated from high-density experiments of inertial confined fusion, ICF, Bose Einstein Condensates, BEC, muon fusion, MF, and astrophysical phenomena, to explain our ejecta sites, Qx, 4He, and no measureable long-range radiation results. The fusion events emanate from deuteron clusters implanted into target foils. Clusters are squeezed and cooled via electromagnetic, EM, compression pressures and evaporative cooling of cluster surface deuterons producing the fusion environment.

The work here dates from 1989 to 2001 and was produced in several different reactors, target foils, and frequencies. The result of high density pinched implantation of D+ and e-, deuterons and electrons; plasma is a D+ cluster. The implant occurs in a picosecond time frame with a creation of D+/Pd, in a 100/1 ratio of an initially electron free D+ cluster with a diameter in the order of a hundred nm. The mobile e- react with D+ and surround the D+ cluster with D. DD fusion events occurring in the transient high-density cluster produce a gamma free heat pulse. The heat pulse reaches the lattice surface in a nanosecond expelling the vapor/liquid foil and products as ejecta. The ejecta sites are easily seen in SEM photos and are counted and plotted as MeV DD fusion events.

We have adapted it for our use. The transient cavitation bubble, TCB, has been harnessed to produce high densities of deuterons, 10^25 to 25/cc. An electrically driven piezo device filled with D2O produces acoustic field generating TCBs that are, in the final collapse stage, micro accelerators. The result is the implanting of deuterons into a target foil producing 4He originating from the Pd foil and T from the Ti foil. We are an emergent tangent technology to sonoluminescence, SL, technology, which we use to give us an environmental parameter probe into the bubble contents at the moment of its highest energy density. (Much of the SL studies center on the pulses of photons coupled to the irradiating acoustic field emanating from an oscillating single stable cavitation bubble, SSCB.) The generation of these photons relates to conditions for the target implantation process. Recently we have been studying the effects of frequency on multi TCB SL conditions that produce fusion. These experiments and the analytical methods have concentrated on the mass spectroscopy of reactor gases, calorimetry of the reactor and power supply, and the scanning electron microscope photographs of target foils. The results from many experiments are pieced together to reach a plausible path for the TCB that terminates with deuterons implanting into a target with the resulting fusion events. The use of SL for monitoring the bubble content's high energy densities allows for reactor parameter management for fusion events in the target foil. Studies of multi TCBs' SL at higher temperatures (300-450?), external pressures (10^6-10^7.5 dynes/cm2) and frequencies (.02- 1.7 MHz) are proceeding in a search for better fusion environments. The results of these experiments will be presented. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StringhamRcavitationb.pdf | |||

The TCB jet produces a high density coherent flux of D+ that is injected into the foil lattice with a flux density of about 1 024 D+/cm2 in a few pi co seconds and at 40 KHz billions of TCBs are formed on the lattice each second [2,3,4,5,6,7]. The data is measured at 5 min. intervals over a period of 24 hours in a static device with some 43 sonication runs and an equal number of calibration runs. A Joule heater is included in the piezo driven reactor to calibrate all runs. It was found from earlier unpublished work [2] that a number of foils will produce both Q(x) and Q(a) in D2O. The Q(a) is different in a mixture of light and heavy water. Q(a) is divided into two distinct processes; Q(al) involving j ust deuterons and the larger Q(a2) involving both deuterons and protons. The knowledge gained from 43 experiments reported on in this paper were completed in the period of Feb. to Apr. of 1 998. The energy values for Q(x) and Q(a) outputs vary from 40 KJ to mega Joules with rates that vary from 1 to 1 5 watts depending on the conditions. The one parameter that is not predictable at this point is the duration of Q(a). | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=361 | ||

The rejection is continuing but the salvation has yet to start. To understand the fiasco, a little history is required. Cold Fusion was discovered by Professors Martin Fleishmann and Stanley Pons working at the University of Utah and announced in 1989. This was a BIG DEAL. Their discovery was announced around the world. Everyone realized the importance. People predicted that the pollution being caused by oil extraction and transport could be eliminated. Nuclear accidents would no longer be a worry. We now know that if this clean energy had been developed 31 years ago, future global warming would have been reduced. As result, the rejection has had serious consequences to the future of civilization. I was working at LANL (Los Alamos National Laboratory) at the time. The laboratory was attempting to develop fission power for use in space, which is a very difficult problem. In fact, having sufficient power for extended space travel is still a problem. The power produced by cold fusion could be the ideal solution. As result, people at Los Alamos became very exited. Dozens of people stopped their normal work and attempted to replicate what Fleischmann and Pons claimed. I was able to make tritium and then excess energy using their method. Both studies were published in a peer reviewed scientific journal. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEcoldfusiong.pdf | ||||||

A great deal of effort has been applied to understanding how this can be accomplished and the nature of the resulting structure. The bulk properties play a role in this process but are sensitive to the impurity content and treatment. The influence of the bulk properties on this process has not been fully explored. This paper describes a new method to directly measure the bond energy between the PdH structure and the contained H atoms in real time as a function of H/Pd ratio from zero to the maximum H content using the electrolytic method and H2SO4+H2O to react Pd with H. A unique and very accurate calorimeter (+/-5 mW) is used to measure power during the loading reaction. This method is applied to several types of Pd including commercial Pd sheet, extra pure Pd, and a zone refine single-crystal of Pd after each is subjected to several treatments. These treatments include repeated loading-deloading cycles, annealing at 900?, and reduction in thickness. The bond energy is found to be sensitive to purity, treatment, and H/Pd ratio, with good agreement with published measurements being achieved after certain treatments. In addition, three methods to measure the average H/Pd ratio are described and compared. These methods use weight gain, orphaned oxygen, and recombiner temperature. A great deal of information about the reaction process can be obtained by combining these three methods because they are sensitive to different possible errors and behaviours. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEtheenthalp.pdf | |||||

Efforts are now underway to go the next step on this path to nuclear sources by harnessing fusion power using hydrogen. So far, this so-called hot fusion process has not been successful in producing practical power. The complexity and size of the generator is expected to make this source impractical even after the many engineering problems are solved. Perhaps a different approach is needed. As answer to this need, a new method called cold fusion was recently discovered to cause fusion. Even though this might prove to be a better way to extract fusion energy, the claim has been difficult for some scientists to accept because it conflicts with what is known about nuclear interaction. This paper describes the cold fusion claim and gives reasons why the method should be accepted and applied. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEanewsource.pdf | ||||||

Over a thousand published papers now support the discovery and the energy is shown to result from fusion of hydrogen isotopes without the need to apply energy and without energetic radiation being produced. By conventional standards, the claims are impossible. Nevertheless, a new phenomenon has been discovered requiring acceptance and understanding. The major behaviors and their present understanding are described in this paper and are used to suggest how an effective explanation might be constructed. Once again, science has been forced to either reject the obvious or accept the impossible. In this case, the normal skepticism needs to be ignored in order to determine if this promised energy source is real and can provide the ideal energy so critically needed. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondenseds.pdf#page=105 | ||||||

In general terms, the reactions can be described as fusion when two hydrogen isotopes combine to form a single product nuclei or as transmutation when one or more hydrogen isotope nuclei enter a larger nuclei. As expected, these reactions generate energy but very little radiation is detected, which is unexpected and has been a cause for rejection.? Sufficient evidence is now available to justify believing this is a real phenomenon and not the result of error. The challenge is to explain how such an unusual process operates. The approached used in this paper is based on six assumptions and their logical relationship to many observations. Although many details are not quantified, the general characteristics of the LENR process are described.

Fleischmann and Pons in 1989. The discovery was met with considerable skepticism, but supporting evidence has accumulated, plausible theories have been suggested, and research is continuing in at least eight countries. This paper provides a brief overview of the major discoveries and some of the attempts at an explanation. The evidence supports the claim that a nuclear reaction between deuterons to produce helium can occur in special materials without application of high energy. This reaction is found to produce clean energy at potentially useful levels without the harmful byproducts normally associated with a nuclear process. Various requirements of a model are examined. | 0028-1042 http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEstatusofcoa.pdf | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 3 | Judging the Validity of the Fleischmann-Pons Effect | CMNS, Cold fusion, Critique, Nuclear energy, Review | The Fleischmann-Pons Effect (FPE, aka cold fusion) was rejected as legitimate science within a year after its announcement in 1989. The growing need for a source of clean energy makes a re-examination of the initial rejection increasingly important. An effective way of assessing the status of the effect as legitimate science is to apply criteria that have been established by scientific skeptics. When 27 criteria set forth by Langmuir, Sagan and Shermer are applied, the requirements for scientific legitimacy appear to be met. In addition, a large and growing number of independent experiments are consistent with a nuclear mechanism being the cause of FPE. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedb.pdf#page=15 | ||||||

These clusters are proposed to hide their Coulomb barrier and to react with isolated deuterons to produce fusion and to react with larger nuclei to produce transmutation. Members of the cluster not directly involved in the nuclear reaction might be scattered by the released energy, thereby allowing momentum to be conserved and the resulting energy to produce particles having energy too small to be easily detected or to cause easily detectable secondary reactions.? Justification of this model is discussed. This proposed model is consistent with most observations, but raises additional questions about the nature of such super-clusters and other ways the energy may be communicated directly to the lattice that will be addressed in future papers. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEroleofclus.pdf | |||||

This claim was rejected because insufficient supporting experimental information was provided, the claim was very difficult to replicate, and no plausible explanation could be proposed. During the 20 years since then, studies in at least 8 countries has provided a rich collection of information, improved reproducibility, and encouraged many explanations.

The phenomenon is conventionally known as 'cold fusion,' or chemically assisted nuclear reactions (CANR)' when the environment is emphasized, or 'low-energy nuclear-reactions (LENR)' if emphasis is placed on the process. A wide range of observations involving anomalous production of energy as well as nuclear products have been published. While many of the claims are still open to interpretation, the general conclusion is that an important, novel phenomenon has been discovered which deserves renewed interest. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEacriticale.pdf | ||||||

This talk will describe a method to initiate nuclear reactions within solid materials, so-called Chemically Assisted Nuclear Reactions (CANR) when the environment is the focus or Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) if the process is to be emphasized. Proposed is a new field of study which combines the electron environment (chemistry) with the nuclear environment (nuclear physics), two environments which are thought not to interact. The method generates energy without producing serious amounts of radiation or radioactive waste. In addition, the method is suggested as a means to reduce the radioactivity associated with previously generated nuclear waste. A wide range of experience obtained world-wide over the last ten years will be described and the controversial nature of the method will be discussed. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEanewmethod.pdf | ||||

Several samples were found to produce significant power above that being applied to produce electrolysis. This behavior was found to correlate with certain properties of the palladium metal.

Alloys and Compounds, Vol = 268 | Formation of b-PdD Containing High Deuterium Concentration Using Electrolysis of Heavy-Water | Pd D2O PdD electrolysis loading OCV structure | The limiting composition of beta-PdD obtained during electrolytic loading results from a complex competition between diffusion of D atoms through any surface barrier, diffusion within the bulk sample, and loss of deuterium gas from surface-penetrating cracks. Reductions in surface crack concentration and surface-barriers are essential steps to achieve high compositions. The highest compositions within any sample are located within the surface region as a complex patch-work of values. The open circuit voltage (OCV), referenced to platinum, is useful in understanding changes in the surface composition and structure. Values as high as -1.35 V have been observed for highly loaded beta-PdD. Evidence for several new, possibly impurity stabilized structures is given. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEformationo.pdf | ||||||

The ability to reproduce any phenomenon depends on knowing the major variables and conditions required for the events to operate. In the case of cold fusion, even fundamental factors such as the D/Pd ratio and the crystal structure of the nuclear-active regions are not known. It is the intent of this paper to demonstrate several techniques for obtaining such information and the results obtained from their application to the Pons-Fleischmann Effect. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsErelationsh.pdf | ||

The influence of these properties on the ability to produce excess power from the 'Pons-Fleischmann' effect was explored. The palladium was found to be very nonuniform with respect to the measured properties. Excess power production was associated with a minimum amount of excess volume and an open circuit voltage above 1.0 V. Samples capable of producing excess energy can be reactivated even after deloading or removal of the surface. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEastudyofth.pdf | ||||||

The following conclusions result from the work: 1. Palladium, no matter how well prepared, is very inhomogeneous with respect to the properties relevant to cold fusion. Therefore, most general conclusions can not be based on the behavior of one or a few samples. 2. The bulk properties do not represent the properties of the nuclear-active-regions. Theoreticians need to take special note of this observation. 3. Energy active palladium will continue to produce excess energy even after being subjected to acid treatment or physical removal of the surface. Therefore, 'good' palladium is difficult to ruin. 4. A pretest method has been developed to identify 'good' palladium. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEsomethough.pdf | ||

Although a high average D/Pd ratio is required to form this state, this is not the only condition. Several additional conditions must exist to cause a very high surface composition to form and to cause a conversion of the resulting material from beta-PdD to another phase.? The required high surface composition depends only in part on a high average composition.? Absence of microcracks in the surface region, presence of surface and near surface impurities, and external energy application influence the eventual nucleation and growth of the required phase. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEthenatureo.pdf | |||||

One sheet produced a steady increase in excess power that reached 7.5 W (20% of input power) before the study was interrupted. A second similar sheet from a different batch of palladium did not produce any measurable excess power. There were differences in the loading behavior, the maximum stoichiometry, and the presence of excess volume in the deuteride made from these materials. The first sheet contained 0.8% excess volume after having been deloaded from its maximum deuterium/palladium (D/Pd) ratio of 0.82 to 0.73, and the second sheet contained 13.5% excess volume while at its maximum ratio of 0.75. The high excess volume in the latter case is an indication of internal escape paths that reduce the required high D/Pd ratio. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEmeasuremena.pdf | ||||||

K. (Japan). One sample gave 20% excess heat before the run was prematurely terminated and the other sample gave no excess heat. The sample giving excess energy contained only 0.8% excess volume while the nonproductive sample had 13.5 % excess volume. The calorimeter is dosed in an energy sense, pressured with D2, and stirred. Calibration was done before, during and after heat measurement. Four different calibration procedures were used including a blank using a platinum cathode. Temperature gradients were monitored and found to change when excess heat was produced. This change strongly suggests that normal electrolysis releases energy mainly at the anode while excess heat is released mainly at the cathode. The bulk D/Pd ratio was measured during initial charging and was found to reach 0.82. Voltage difference between cathode and reference electrode was measured and indicates that the deuterium concentration gradient is small during initial charging at 0.02A/cm^2. Excess volume in each palladium cathode was measured after each study. Heat production is proposed to be prevented if excess volume is too large. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=32 | ||

Void space is produced in palladium when it is subjected to hydrogen adsorption and desorption cycles. This void space can produce channels through which hydrogen can be lost from the cathode, thereby reducing the hydrogen concentration. This effect is influenced, in part, by impurities, the shape of the electrode, the charging rate, the achieved concentration of hydrogen and the length of time the maximum concentration is present. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StormsEtheeffecto.pdf | ||||||

Once subtracted from the vessel + (empty) Pd effect measured in ?lank? runs, and excess of 13.0 ? 0.6 neutrons per second (~4% of the total measured rate close percent has been detected. Assuming 2.45 MeV energy for the electrons emitted by the radiated sample, the resulting rate corresponds to several outgoing neutrons for every neutron impinging on the Pd-D sample. Similar measurements with cadmium absorber gave lower effects. We don? observe any effect with gaseous deuterium. The underlying process can be interpreted as d-d fusion in a Pd-D lattice perturbed by neutrons. The excess, predominantly due to thermal incident neutrons, demonstrates that the palladium lattice strongly increases the probability for d-d fusion even almost at rest. Pd loaded with D was irradiated with neutrons. Almost twice as many neutrons were emitted by the sample than were impinging upon it. No effect was found using D2. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=176 | ||

Gamma rays are detected by a complementary low background NaI detector. The total neutron background measured by the apparatus in the Gran Sasso INFN underground laboratory amounts to 0.09 Hz. A few different experiments have been performed with the same detector (see also the following contribution). A D2O-LiOD electrolysis with Pd cathode have been realized with emphasis on the cleanliness of all components. D2 and O2 produce gases were recombined using a room temperature catalyzer and the resulting water was monitored twice a day for tritium content; the same was done for samples of the electrolytic solution. Loading the Pd with variable currents, and a long patient of 130 μm (with much larger radial broadening) was observed in the first few days accompanied by a 60 - 100% tritium excess detected in the recombined water. The measured neutron rate in the same period was consistent with the background. Found tritium excess after electrolysis of annealed Pd. No neutrons were detected.

Also, in that study, production of excess heat from a nuclear source during electrolysis in heavy water indicated portions of the palladium (Pd) ? deuterium (D) specimen were in the ordered delta phase, while a drop in resistance of the Pd during excess heat, with an increase in temperature, indicated portions of the specimen had shifted to the ordered delta' phase. Both delta and delta', create intersecting channels along the edges of the unit cells which are in effect long strings of Pd lattice vacancies for fast electron transport or a deuteron resonance condition.

The precision was: Power In = +/- .0005 W; Delta T = +/- .05?; Power Out = +/- .015 W for an overall precision of +/- 0.5%. High fugacity was required for these results, and the triggered run-away events required even higher fugacity. Using thermodynamic energy balance, it was found that the energy release was of such magnitude that the source of the energy is from a nuclear source, however the exact reaction was not determined in this work. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/StakerMRpreprintco.pdf | |||||

A common element in all these applications is that the electromagnetic energy stored in many relatively slow-moving electrons can, under appropriate circumstances, be collectively transferred into fewer, much faster electrons with energies sufficient for the latter to combine with protons (or deuterons, if present) to produce neutrons through weak interactions. The produced neutrons can then initiate low energy nuclear reactions through further nuclear transmutations. The aim of this paper is to extend and enlarge on various examples analyzed previously, present simplified order-of-magnitude estimates for each and illuminate a common unifying theme among them.

Electrolytic, gas and plasma loading techniques were deployed. Post run electrolyte samples were analyzed for tritium content using standard liquid scintillation techniques. In the case of gas and plasma loaded ??ry? samples, surface tritium content was measured directly using windowless beta counters. Autoradiography was deployed as a very effective tool to monitor the spatial distribution of tritium in the near surface layers of test samples. The first confirmation of copious tritium generation was obtained on 21 April 1989 in a commercial ?ilton Roy? Pd?2O electrolytic cell. The results obtained during the first year of the BARC Cold Fusion campaign were presented at ICCF 1 in March 1990 where we reported observing tritium generation in 22 different electrolytic cells, which were set up totally independently by diverse research groups. The present paper revisits the early BARCtritium results obtained in a variety of experimental configurations during the period 1989?1996. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedn.pdf#page=144 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 4 | Neutron Emission in Bursts and Hot Spots: Signature of Micro-Nuclear Explosions? | Hot spots, Micro-nuclear explosion, Neutron bursts, Statistics, Tritium | Within a few months of the Fleischmann Pons announcement of 1989 several independent groups at BARC had confirmed the production of neutrons and tritium in a variety of electrolytic cells. Among the many findings of the BARC groups were the first hint of the neutron to tritium branching ratio anomaly, namely that tritium production is several orders of magnitude higher than that of neutrons, that neutrons and tritium are probably being emitted simultaneously and that at least in the case of titanium targets, the generated tritium is found to be entrenched in highly localized ?ot spots?. But the most intriguing observation of all was that neutrons appeared to be emitted in sharp bursts of up to 10^3 neutrons per event. An integrated view of all these findings taken together led to the speculation that perhaps up to 10^10-10^12 tritons each were being generated in the form of micro-nuclear explosions, with neutron emission being only a minor side reaction in the process. Whatever the nature of the phenomenon, it seemed to be occurring in a highly localized fashion, both in space and time. Since those early days however the aspect of spatially localized occurrence of nuclear reactions has gained further acceptance through the concept of ?uclear Active Environment?. The observation of thermal hot spots, micro-craters and isolated regions wherein transmutation products are concentrated on the cathode surface has reinforced the suspicion that the phenomenon is spatially localized. But how reliable is the evidence for localization in time? This review revisits our early neutron multiplicity measurements since it appears that confirmation of multiple neutron production is possibly the only handle we have to establish the temporal localization feature and thereby give some insight into the possible occurrence of micro-nuclear explosions which in turn would have a tremendous bearing on the nature of the theoretical mechanism governing these LENR reactions. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedc.pdf#page=169 | ||||||

3791 | Conference Proceedings | Srinivasan, M. | 2009 | Hot Spots, Chain Events and Micro-nuclear Explosions | 15th International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science | ENEA | Rome, Italy | Hot Spots, Chain Events and Micro-nuclear Explosions | In 1990 the BARC group presented results at several fora, based on our neutron multiplicity studies as well as tritium measurements, that suggested micro-nuclear explosions seem to occur at localized hot spots in which both Tritium and neutrons are generated, subject to the n/T branching ratio anomaly. It was estimated that about 108 to 1010 tritium generating lenr reactions take place in these hot spots accompanied by a very small fraction of neutrons. During the last few years several researchers have reported detecting a variety of transmutation reaction products in localized sites, often associated with some type of crater formation. Other experimenters have reported online detection of flashes of ?hermal hot spots? in their cathodes. It is therefore tempting to speculate that perhaps the concept of micro-nuclear explosions can be extended to heat generating helium producing reactions too, as well as nuclear reactions responsible for transmutation products. Many theoretical models such as those that depend on the catalyzing role of some exotic intermediate agent (such as Bose-Einstein condensates, deuteron clusters, Erzions, poly neutrons, trapped neutrons etc) seem to point to the possibility of occurrence of chain events. Two decades into the CMNS era, it is therefore worthwhile reexamining the merits of the micro-nuclear explosion hypothesis and seek independent experimental evidence to either corroborate or refute such a hypothesis. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVproceedinga.pdf#page=57 | |||||

The cells were fabricated out of commercial dewar vacuum flasks. The difference in temperature at equilibrium between the operating cells and that of an identical dummy reference flask was measured to deduce excess heat. The cells were calibrated using resistance heaters. In all, studies have been carried out so far in 29 electrolytic cells with various electrolytes. In some cases a mixture of H20 and D20 was used. The cells were operated for a few weeks at a time and excess heat up to a maximum of 70% appears to be present in most cells when the input joule power is upto a watt or two. The current density was less than 40 mA/cm^2. Electrolyte samples before and after electrolysis were analysed for tritium content after microdistillation to eliminate chemiluminiscence effects. Samples from 18 out of 29 experiments analysed have indicated tritium levels varying in the region of 46 Bq/ml to 3390 Bq/ml. One cell with enriched Li2C03 solution in H20 which was monitored continuously for over a month indicated that tritium generation is continuous. Although the highest amount of tritium produced so far was with a K2C03 in 25% D20 cell, the generation of tritium in cells containing only H20 is a new finding. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=131 | ||

Sci., Vol = 60 | Nuclear fusion in an atomic lattice: An update on the international status of cold fusion research | review | It is now two years since the first reports of the occurrence of nuclear reactions at ambient temperatures in deuterated metals such as Pd or Ti were published. ?old fusion', as this phenomenon has now come to be known, has, however, become embroiled in intense controversy with the scientific community becoming sharply polarized into 'believers' and 'non-believers' of this novel phenomenon. This ambivalence is primarily because of the non-reproducibility of the claimed results by many reputed research groups that have often used sophisticated experimental equipment. However, as the present review clearly shows, a large number of laboratories in many different countries have now obtained very reliable experimental evidence confirming the generation of 2.45-MeV neutrons, tritium, charged particles, X-rays, etc., both in electrolysis experiments and in a variety of other D2 -/plasma-/ion-beam-loading experiments, thereby confirming the nuclear origin of the phenomenon. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Srinivasannuclearfus.pdf | ||||||

Since then atleast six different groups have successfully measured burst neutron emission from deuterated titanium shavings following the Frascati methodology, the special feature of which was the use of liquid nitrogen to create repeated thermal cycles resulting in the production of non-equilibrium conditions in the deuterated samples. At Trombay several variations of the gas loading procedure have been investigated including induction heating of single machined titanium targets in a glass chamber as well as use of a plasma focus device for deuteriding its central titanium electrode. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Srinivasanobservatio.pdf | ||

In the first method the multiplicity distribution of counts in 20 ms time intervals is analysed to give information about the statistics of neutron emission in cold fusion. The results of six such experiments indicate that about 10 to 25% of the neutrons produced in cold fusion are emitted in the form of bunches 400 to 600 neutrons each. The other method discussed is an adaptation of the Artificial Dead Time method developed originally for reactor noise analysis as well as for the passive neutron assay of plutonium. An expression for the fractional loss of counts in the presence of dead time is derived. It is shown that a neutron detection efficiency of ~ 1% is adequate to estimate the average multiplicity as well as the fraction of bunched neutron emission in the presence of a Poisson background. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Srinivasanstatistica.pdf | ||

In a very dilute acid solution thin Pd cathodes (50 or 100 mm in diameter) and thick Pt anodes (0.5 mm in diameter) were used in a parallel or coaxial geometry. Normalised resistance (R/Ro) of the Pd cathode was on-line and continuously measured in order to determine the actual H/Pd values. Different electrolytic solutions have been tested by adding to the acid solution very low amounts of Ca, Sr, Li and Hg ions; high loading H/Pd ratios have been achieved with a satisfactory grade of reproducibility. Several loading procedures have been performed in a wide range of electrolysis current (from a few mA up to one hundred mA) and at different Hg ion concentrations. The obtained results allowed for the definition of a loading protocol that ensures very high H/Pd over-loading. Stable R/Ro ≤ 1.2 values (corresponding to H/Pd ratios ≥ 1) can be currently achieved with an extremely low power electrolytic supply (10 V, 5 mA). | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SpalloneAanoverview.pdf | ||||||

The addition of alkaline-earth metals to the electrolyte appears to be decisive for the achievement of HlPd loading ratios close to 1. Two independent Research Groups have tested the protocol with similar results.

Such reactions produce nuclear products and generate thermal energy. Calorimeters are the instruments used to measure the energy production. They can be based on either mass or heat flow. Some heat flow calorimeters use the Seebeck effect in particular materials, where temperature differences produced by LENR generate measurable voltages from thermoelectric devices. This paper is a review of Seebeck calorimeters that have been used in LENR experiments. Compilations of their characteristics and performance are provided. The scaling of the performance of Seebeck calorimeters with their size is considered. The equations that govern the behavior of both mass flow and heat flow calorimeters are given. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzf.pdf#page=240 | ||||||

As a consequence, the localized phonon modes of the crystal/damaged-region interface have a much higher frequency than the host. These high-frequency modes create electrostatic fields that interact strongly with electrons of the local atoms. A resulting instantaneous potential inversion, from polarization, leads to the formation of lochons (local charged bosons-electron pairs in the singlet state, perhaps isolated from the Pd d-orbital energy levels) and of an associated H+ or D+ ion (with its two shared electrons instantaneously isolated into the adjacent Pd d-levels). The Coulomb repulsion between the nuclei of these pairs is greatly reduced by strong screening from the lochons that can even generate an attractive polarization potential. Furthermore, the mutual tunneling penetration probability of the Coulomb barrier is enhanced by correlated fluctuations. This arises from the generalized uncertainty relations, x px,E t = (n + 1/2)h/(1 - ?2)0.5, where n may be on the order of 10-100 and where results from two models are combined. The integer n values represent excitations in the phonon modes of the H or D sub-lattice and ? is the correlation coefficient with 0 < ? < 1. Higher values of nand ?, for a particle in a potential well, imply less localization and greater uncertainties in location (i.e., extending its probability distribution further into the barrier). These periodic fluctuations into the barrier are an interference effect similar to that of beat frequencies. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=111 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 6 | Lochon-mediated Low-energy Nuclear Reactions | Deep orbital, Fragmentation, LENR, Lochon, Strong screening | In heavily hydrogenated (deuterated) palladium crystals, the crystallinity is degraded. This non-uniformity results in phonon modes that are localized and of higher frequency than for unloaded lattices. These modes create dynamic electrostatic fields that couple strongly with both bound and free electrons and the hydrogen (H and D) sub-lattice. A consequent potential inversion leads to the formation of ??ochons? (local-charged bosons-electron pairs in the singlet state) and results in H- or D- ions in the sub-lattice. The nuclear-Coulomb repulsion between colliding D+ D- ion pairs in the sub-lattice is considerably reduced by the resultant ??trong screening? and ??ochon-drag? effects. Furthermore, work is done, by the bound lochon in a D- ion attracting an adjacent D+ ion. This results in reductions: of the deuteron?? electron-orbital radii, as the ion pair approaches; of the mass deficit between the deuteron pair and a 4He atom (or a proton pair and a 2He/2H atom); and finally of the Coulomb repulsion between nuclear protons in a helium nucleus. Thus, the end product of such a deuteron-pair fusion is an excited-helium nucleus (4He*) with lower energy relative to that resulting from energetic deuteron collisions. This reduced energy of the excited nucleus may be lower than its new fragmentation levels. The effect of lochon mediation, to alter the nuclear potential-well and fragmentation energies, allows decay to the 4He ground states to be free of particulate radiation. This decay process, of ?eutral? 2He (from p+p) or 4He excited nuclei, is also a basis for observed transmutation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensede.pdf#page=64 | ||||||

Such non-equilibrium defects can exist only in a solid matrix.? Further, solids harbor lattice vibrational modes (quanta, phonons) whose longitudinal-optical modes interact strongly with electrons and ions.? One such interaction, resulting in potential inversion, causes localization of electron pairs on deuterons. Thus, we have attraction of D+ - D- pairs and strong screening of the nuclear repulsion due to these local electron pairs (local charged bosons: acronym, lochons).? This attraction and strong coupling permits low-energy deuterons to approach close enough to alter the standard equations used to define nuclear-interaction cross-sections. These altered equations not only predict that low-energy-nuclear reactions (LENR) of D+ - D- (and H+ - H-) pairs are possible, they predict that they are probable. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SinhaKPamodelfore.pdf | |||||

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies performed six months after electrolysis of the heavy water cathodes revealed asperities, craters, and nodules, suggesting that localized melting and recrystallization had occurred, as we reported previously on specimens electrolyzed for longer times. AFM studies 1 .5 years later revealed loose, nanometer-sized particles, indicating that the heavy water cathodes continued to change during storage, long after electrolysis was performed, which we also reported previously on other cathodes. The morphology of palladium cathodes electrolyzed in light water electrolyte remained nearly identical to that of the unelectrolyzed control, even two years after electrolysis. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=351 | ||

Neutron emission was monitored using a bank of 16 BF3 detectors embedded in a cylindrical moderator assembly. A dead-time filtering technique was employed to detect the presence of neutron “bursts” if any and characterize the multiplicity distribution of such neutron bursts. It was found that with an operating Pd-D2O cell located in the centre of the neutron detection set-up, the daily average neutron count rate increased by about 9% throughout a one month period, over the background value of ~ 2386 counts/day indicating an average daily neutron production of ~ 2220 neutrons/day by the cell. In addition analysis of the deadtime filtered counts data indicated that about 6.5% of these neutrons were emitted in the form of bursts of 20 to 100 neutrons each. On an average there were an additional 6 burst events per day during electrolysis with LiOD over the daily average background burst rate of 1.7 bursts/day. The frequency of occurrence of burst events as well as their multiplicity was significantly higher with D2O + LiOD in the cell when compared with background runs as also light water 'control' runs. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ShyamAobservatio.pdf | |||

Deuterium loading is carried out in a series of steps by passing a D.C. current to ohmically heat the sample for some time in D2 gas until a measurable quantity is absorbed. After every loading, the wire resistance and decrease in the gas pressure are measured at room temperature using a four probe resistance meter (?0.2% accuracy) and an oil manometer respectively. Significantly, it is observed that an apparently simple property like electrical resistance is not easily reproducible. The pre loading heat treatment and residual gases in high vacuum appear to play an important role on the behaviour of the resistance in TiDx. The preliminary results also suggest that this property may not be useful in estimating the deuterium content in titanium. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=270 | ||

K., Srinivasan, M. | Atomic Energy Commission | Bombay | Deuteration of Machined Titanium Targets for Cold Fusion Experiments | Ti, loading | Cold fusion experiments were initiated with solid targets made from titanium loaded with deuterium gas on receipt of reports of the successful Frascati experiments1. The absorption of deuterium by Ti is a reversible process and when titanium is heated in a deuterium atmosphere, the reaction will continue until the concentration of deuterium in the metal attains an equilibrium value. This equilibrium value depends on the specimen temperature and the pressure of the surrounding deuterium atmosphere. Any imposed temperature or pressure change causes rejection or absorption of deuterium until a new equilibrium state is achieved. If the surface of titanium is clean, the rate of absorption increases rapidly with temperature. At temperatures above 500?, the equilibrium is achieved in a matter of a few seconds. However deuterium absorption is considerably reduced if the surface of Ti is contaminated with oxygen. Keeping in view these facts, a procedure was evolved for titanium target preparation and subsequent deuteration. The following sections describe the details of preparation of the targets, their chemical cleaning and degassing followed by deuteration process. | 1500 http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Shrikhandedeuteratio.pdf | |||

New Energy, Vol = 5, Num = 2, Page = 121 | Rescued thanks to the Wayback Machine | electron cluster, EV, black EV, soliton, permittivity, entanglement | Highly organized, micron-sized clusters of electrons, or EVs, having soliton behaviour, with electron populations on the order of Avogadro's number are represented as the necessary function for modifying the permittivity of space in a downward direction. The state of existence for this entity reduces its expressed charge by many orders of magnitude below that calculated for the same number and volume of uncontained electrons. The EV is shown to exist in at least two distinct modes of charge masking, with one of them, the black EV, being virtually undetectable using sensitive methods. A form of inertial propulsion will be discussed that arises from the inertial rectification affects available by modulating the state of the EV, thereby the permittivity of space and concomitant inertia or effective mass of material moving through space. It will be shown that the same type of permittivity change through EV modulation can achieve a unidirectional current flow and that this gives rise to methods for generating monopole affects and vector potentials useful for communication outside the usual current loop generating them. Consideration will be given to a form of pseudo particle entanglement arising from the tight and pseudo-quantized coupling between the EV structures. Complex organisms are discussed composed entirely of EV structures that are self-formed at electronic rates without using either mechanical or chemical methods. Some speculations will be made on the benefits of operating such complex entities in regions of greatly reduced permittivity. A condensed matter dissolution technique will be shown that is capable of cold dissociation of refractory material into a low viscosity fluid. The root process for energy conversion methods resembling 'cold fusion' are reviewed and shown to likely spring from the same EV technology capable of producing a modified space permittivity. Consideration will be given to experimental methods for testing affects on time at greatly reduced levels of permittivity. | http://www.svn.net/krscfs/Permittivity Transitions.pdf | ||||||

In the bombardment experiments, the cross sections for d(d,p)t reactions were measured to be less than 1.5 x 10-11 b at an ion energy of 2 keV. Measured branching ratios between d(d,p)t and d(d,niHe were unity in the ion energy range between 2 and 40 keY, even though the deuterium-deuterium nuclear fusion occurred in palladium. We also estimated the minimum detectable values for the charged-particle detection system, NE213 nuclear detector system, 3He counter, and a quadrupole mass-spectroscope system used in both the experiments. In the deuterium transport experiments, we tried to detect nuclear fusion products by using these detector systems placed in a vacuum chamber which extracted deuterium from the sample palladium. Any extraordinary nuclear products, however, could not be observed in the experiments carried out under various temperature variations and for various modifications of palladium surfaces. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=366 | |||

The branching ratio of d(d,3He)n to d(d,p)t were found to be one to one at energies from 2.5 keV to 20 keV in the CM frame. The reaction rate of d(d,p)t at 2.5 keV was four orders of magnitude less than that at 20 keV. These energy dependences were good agreement with those extrapolated from measurements of the d+d reaction which was derived by the high-energy (mega-electron-volts) deuterium ion bombardments. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=56 | ||

As a result, we categorized the temperature changes into three different types that were independent of coating materials. In almost all experiments, the resistance decreased and the D2 pressure initially increased briefly and then gradually decreased in the D2 release process. We also tried to simulate the temperature changes by calculating the balance between Joule heat and heat dispersion. Pd plates were loaded with D and some were coated with a diffusion barrier (Au/Pd/Au, Ag/Pd/MnOx). Plate heated in vacuum while resistance, temperature and D pressure measured. Temperature showed three different behaviors independent of coating, one of which showed a temperature spike. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=52 | ||

3696 | Journal Article | Shamoo, A. E. | 2000 | Editorial | Accountability Res., Vol = 8 | Editorial | history critique | Before 1996, when I gave lectures on responsible conduct of research or research ethics, I used to emphasize the importance of ensuring in biomedical research the quality and integrity of research data. My reason for emphasizing this point was that, as opposed to situations associated with maintaining comparable standards in clinical trials, in which existing funding levels allow for the possibility that particular experiments will be repeated, in biomedical research, one cannot obtain funding to repeat research experiments that are large and expensive. For this reason, it was (and has remained) imperative that instances of possible fraud, misconduct and sloppy work be reduced from the outset. Because of limited funding, as a consequence, the self-correcting process of science may not be operative in these areas. I then used to end this part of my discussion by citing how in cold fusion research, and because of the potential significance and impact of the particular claims associated with this area, the self-correcting nature of science worked. The cold fusion experiments have been repeated dozens of times without success. The conclusion was that they were proven to be wrong. However, I was basing my conclusion on the numerous reports in newspapers and scientific magazines but not on any readings of the original literature. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ShamooAEeditorial.pdf | ||||||

The experimentally observed D/H ratio of 127 ppm exceeds the naturally occurring value of 150 ppm. Further , using a multicomponent system consisting of hydrogen , deuterium , tritium and helium nuclei to model the Oklo reaction phenomenon and assuming a thermal fission process term , we calculate a D/H rat io of 445 ppm in the presence of the thermal neutron fluence attributed to Oklo. However, solving the same rate equations with a deuterium sink term to represent the hypothes is of deuteron disintegration , we find a deuteron disintegration constant of 7.47 x 10^-14 s^-1 yields the observed D/H ratio . Indeed , deuteron disintegration would provide a neutron source (in addition to the fission neutrons ) that could have driven the Oklo system as a subcritical (vs . a critical) reactor over the extended period attributed to it . | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SIFthescience.pdf#page=236 | ||

In order to distinguish between T-natural enrichment (isotopic enrichment) and any other T source inside the cell a macroscopic theoretical model is proposed to analyze the experimental data. It is concluded that T-concentration variations in the electrolyte above the level due to natural enrichment can be detected with confidence and therefore that open-cell experiments are convenient to investigate T -production. In addition, some empirical correlations between model parameters (measured separation factors) and cathode surface treatments prior to experiment have been found. An equation that calculates tritium enrichment in open D2O electrolytic cells is given. Several open cells are analyzed using this equation and found to produce tritium. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=245 | ||

The material conditions of Pd cathodes significantly affect the attainable DlPd loading ratio. In addition, the DlPd is affected by the applied current density profile, pattern of increasing current and anodic treatments. As a result of the experiments, it was concluded that higher annealing temperatures (-1000 deg C) result in higher DlPd. In addition, etching in aqua regia proved to be a better surface treatment than polishing. It was confirmed that using the pre-electrolysis treatments resulted in higher D/Pd. The electrolysis current pattern and anodic treatment cycles likewise affected the D/Pd. On the other hand the electrochemical hydrogen loading behavior of Pd cathode in LiOH/H2O system has been studied by a volume/weight measurement method. This shows analogous effects due to annealing as loading experiments with deuterium. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=74 | ||

The most recent test was made with a 'closed system' without off-gas in which the electrolysis gases were internally recombined. Fast neutrons and gamma rays were measured continuously during each test. It was shown that certain system perturbations could initiate and extend the generation of excess power. In one test, an apparent increase in the neutron count rate was also coincident with system perturbations. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ScottCDtheinitiat.pdf | ||

The discussion is restricted to tritium production, based on the dd reaction that populates the first excited state of 4He, which decays into t+p, whereas the formation of 3He+n is energetically forbidden. Production rates compatible with the broad range of experimental results are realized within a narrow parametric interval. The great sensitivity to the physical circumstances is reminiscent of the reproducibility problems that have plagued this field. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SchwingerJnuclearene.pdf | ||

Sci., Vol = 19 | 325 Electromagnetic Emission in the kHz to GHz Range Associated with Heat Production During Electrochemical Loading of Deuterium into Palladium: A Summary and Analysis of Results Obtained by Different Research Groups | Electromagnetic emissions, Electromagnetic radiation, Excess power, LENR, Heat production | There is a small literature on the combination of low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) experiments and radiofrequencies (RF). The papers are worth attention in case they can teach anything about the mechanisms behind LENR. Application of RF to LENR electrochemical cells in the mid-1990s clearly showed increases in the production of excess power. More recently, RF have been measured in LENR cells. However, it is still possible that those data are artifacts of the operation of the system, and not indicative of LENR. It has been suggested that the appearance of RF in LENR experiments is the cause of LENR, and not merely a manifestation of such reactions. That possibility has significant implications. In the present paper, we summarize and analyze the results obtained by different research groups concerning the application and emission of RF in the kHz to GHz range associated with heat production during electrochemical loading of deuterium into palladium. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=333 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 19 | 281 Is the Abundance of Elements in Earth's Crust Correlated with LENR Transmutation Rates? | Elements in Earth's crust, Low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR), Neutron scattering strength, Statistical analysis, Transmutation, Widom?arsen theory | Nuclear transmutations are reported in many low-energy nuclear reaction (LENR) experiments. We showed in a previous study (Scholkmann and Nagel, J. Condensed Matter Nucl. Sci. 13 (2014) 485?494) that (i) the transmutation data of three independent experiments have a similar pattern and (ii) this pattern correlates with a model-based on the prediction of Widom and Larsen (WL). In the present study, we extended our analysis and investigated whether the abundance of elements in Earth's crust is correlated with either (i) the WL-prediction, or (ii) the three LENR transmutation data sets. The first analysis revealed that there is no statistically significant correlation between these variables. The second analysis showed a significant correlation, but the correlation only reflects the trend of the data and not the peak-like pattern. This result strengthens the interpretation that the observed peak-like pattern in the transmutation data sets does not originate from contamination. Further implications of our study are discussed and a recommendation is given for future transmutation experiments. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=289 | ||||||

The aim of the present study was to analyze the time courses of the signals of one of the experiments using an advanced signal-processing framework. The experiment was a high temperature (375 K), high pressure (750 kPa) and long-term (866 h . 35 days) electrochemical transmutation exploration done in 2008. The analysis was performed by (i) selecting the intervals of the D/Pd, T and P signals where the daily oscillations occurred, (ii) filtering the signals to remove low-frequency noise, (iii) analyzing the waveforms of the daily oscillations, (iv) applying Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) to decompose the signals into Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs), (v) performing a statistical test on the obtained IMFs in order to identify the physically most meaningful oscillation mode, (vi) performing an power spectral analysis, (vii) calculating the correlations between the signals, and (viii) determining the time-dependent phase synchronization between the signals. We found that (i) in all three signals (D/Pd, T and P) a clear daily oscillation was present while the current density J did not show such an oscillation, (ii) the daily oscillation in T and P had similar waveforms and where anti-correlated to the oscillation in D/Pd, (iii) D/Pd and T had the highest correlation (r = 0.7693), (iv) all three signals exhibited phase synchronization over the whole signal length while the strongest phase synchronization took place between D/Pd and T . Possible origins of the daily oscillation were discussed and implications for further investigations and experiments were outlined. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedg.pdf#page=43 | ||||||

In order to reach such an high value of X, extensive use of electrolysis of heavy water with a Pd cathode has been made. An alternative line that has been followed by the Author [1] consists of trying to obtain high values of X by the direct interaction of Pd with D2 gas. The use of low temperatures has the purpose of increasing the equilibrium loading ratio for a given gas pressure.

The use of low temperatures has the purpose of increasing the equilibrium loading ratio for a given gas pressure. A first test experiment, performed at ENEA Frascati in 2002, showed that it was possible to have D/Pd ratios as high as 1 at 150 K with a pressure lower than 1 bar [1].

The first time this was suggested was in the Spring of 1989, ten years ago, by Fleischmann and Pons (1): their experiment gave rise to much turmoil all over the world, ending within a few months with the scientific community rejecting the experiment and thus this interpretation. Research in CF continued nevertheless in a few laboratories, mostly in the USA, Japan, Italy, Russia and China; International Conferences were held regularly, roughly every 1.5 years. However, after ten years, in spite of undeniable (although not overwhelming) progress in the field, there is hardly any communication between this small CF community and the scientific world at large. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Scaramuzzitenyearsof.pdf | |||||||

On the other hand, a small number of theoreticians, who are working on the physics of the magnetic monopole, know that the nuclear reaction of the zero incident energy proceeds when the system involves a magnetic monopole. Since the former group still lacks a theory of the nuclear cold fusion based on the first principle of the natural law, I believe it is fruitful to explain to the former group how the theoretician of the particle physics comes to arrive at the conclusion that the nuclear cold fusion must occur if a magnetic monopole exists, in the framework of the quantum theory. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensed.pdf#page=12 | ||||||

The registered structure and isotopic ratio change alongside with formation of additional elements were accompanied by gamma and X-ray emission. The registered isotopic ratio change ranged within 2-1000 times, the quantity of additional elements undetected before varying within one tenth to dozens percents in Pd and Pd alloys. The isotopes with masses less than and exceeding those of the cathode material were measured in most of the experiments. The MS revealed that the tungsten isotopes transmutated into elements lighter than tungsten, higher post-experimental intensity of mass numbers 169, 170, 171, 178 and 180 being observed. The mass spectra peaks magnituded for isotopes lighter than W isotopes increased by factors ranging from 5 to 400. The registered increase varied from 5-50 cps in the original foils to 100-20 000 cps after the exposure to deuterium GD. Lighter isotopes in tungsten and tantalum foils placed on the GD cathode after deuterium GD exposure were identified using high resolution gamma/X-ray spectrometry. The comparison of thermal ionization mass-spectrometry (TIMS) data and data of gamma-spectra energy peaks allowed to assume that the peaks series observed in gamma spectra belong to the following isotopes: 169 70 Yb, 170 72 Hf , 171m 70 Yb, 172 72 Hf and 178 70 Yb. Correlation of TIMS and Gamma spectrometry data leads to the assumption that the appearance of light isotopes in tungsten resulted from the low-energy decay process initiation caused by deuterium GD. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensede.pdf#page=190 | ||||||

The voltage of the discharge was less than 1000 V and the current was 5-150 mA. Samples before and after ions bombardment in the glow discharge were explored by the methods of mass spectrometry: the secondary ions (SIMS), the secondary ions with additional ionization of neutral sprayed particles (SNMS), spark (SMS), and thermo-ionization (TIMS), and also methods of energy dispersion X-ray spectral analysis (EDX). The alpha-, beta-, gamma- emission, and gamma- spectrometry for radioactive uranium specimens were also carried out before and after experiments in the glow discharge. Changes in structure, isotope, and element composition of the cathode samples depend on current density, integrated ions flow (fluence of ions), kind of irradiating ions and other experimental conditions. Attempts are made to estimate qualitatively and quantitatively the role of each of the parameters on intensity of the observed changes in cathode composition. It is shown that the maximum changes in structure, chemical and isotope composition of the cathode material occur in 'hot points,' such as craters from microexplosions, phase segregations, blisters and other new formations. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Savvatimovinfluenceo.pdf | ||||

The post-experimental charged particles flow from samples in Deuterium GD was measured. The current ranging ~ 10^-6A?cm^-2 - ~10^-13A?cm^-2 was registered in the first 1 - 3 post-experimental minutes for different materials (Pd, Pd alloys, Ag and Mo) and experimental parameters.

To support the results, a theoretical frame has been also developed, that suggests that a relevant role in the excess heat production is played by the electrodynamics processes at the cathode interface. In particular, one of the mechanisms involved is the enhancement and spatial localization of the electro-magnetic field at the metal/electrolyte interface, promoted by proper surface roughness and morphology. A further point to be considered is the dynamic character of the metal/electrolyte interface during electrochemical deuterium loading, that derives from the coupling between the different interface characteristics. Surface reconstruction of the metallic cathode is expected to happen, due to corrosion-deposition mechanisms, D/H transport, stress relaxation and defect production, and so on. All these mechanisms both affect and are affected by the surface properties, such as the morphology of the metal/electrolyte interface, the metallurgical and crystal structure of the cathode and the presence of contaminants. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVproceeding.pdf#page=192 | |||||

The effect of surface morphology on electrochemical reaction kinetics is well described in the literature 1 therefore it seems to be reasonable to assume that the surface morphology of the cathodes could play a role in the electrochemical metal-hydride formation. Actually, a wide variety of surface features and profiles have been observed in the Pd cathodes typically employed in excess heat production experiments. These features are noted in both the as-prepared samples and the electrolyzed ones. In order to establish a correlation between the occurrence of a particular surface morphology and calorimetric results, it is necessary to identify a useful metric with which to describe and compare the different surface morphologies. In this work an approach based on Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has been investigated. The method is oriented toward the identification of parameters suitable for a pre-screening of the materials. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SartoFelectrodes.pdf | |||||

One did not pay any serious attention to that phenomenon. And only in the recent works of Paulo and Alexandra Correa it was shown that by creation of the conditions for abnormal gas discharge (PAGD - Pulsed Abnormal Glow Discharge) on direct current powerful bursts of alternating current appear. The energy of these bursts exceeds several times the consumed energy (up to 10 times). In this experiment one can observe that a part of electric current carriers (obviously electrons) gain high velocities being the reason for excess energy generation. According to the unitary quantum theory it possible to explain easily the generation of excess energy [1, 7, 8]. The electrons can oscillate with a high plasma frequency relatively to very heavy positive ions. Their behaviour is possible to explain as oscillations in a potential well with the rims of various height. A t some certain values of initial phase the approximate equation of the unitary quantum theory with an oscillating charge can yield the 'mathernily home' solution [1,7,8]. As a result of the electrones having gained a high energy with a high velosity they fly out of the wells, and always in one direction. It is the energy generation process - and not nuclear reactions - that are responsible for excess energy creation. The mathematical process model is created as well as an approximate solution of the non-linear difforential equation is achieved. The range of values of initial phases allowing the energy generation process is determined. If the experimental research of Tesla, Tandberg and Correa are correct then there is no doubt the foture power industry would be developing in this direction and not in today's fashionable direction of the cold nuclear fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=472 | ||

In this connection Prof. Peter Hagelstain writes in [ 1 ] : 'Some say that this heat can be explained easily by elementary chemical reactions, phase changes, or battery-like storage effects. I have trouble with these explanations' . For instance, nickel electrolysis in light water produces the same amount of energy as that of palladium in heavy water. Besides, we have to consider a no less mysterious phenomenon of sonoluminescence, that was discovered in Russia in 1 933 by S.N.Rzhevkin. At first sight these phenomena seem to bear no correlation. But Julian Schwinger, the Nobel Laureate and profound research worker, has drawn parallels between cold fusion and sonoluminescence in his continuous technical publication on both topics. He notes in [2] : 'Like Cold Fusion, sonoluminescence 'should not exist', but it does. This now well established phenomenon occurs when ultrasonic sound, beamed into liquid, causes bubbles to oscillate stably - to expand and contract regularly - and also to emit regular pulses of light'. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=164 | ||

Among those compounds, yttrium doped barium cerates have the best performances in terms of protonic conductivity at lowest temperature. In this activity, doped BCY oxide powders was synthesized via novel soft chemical route. The method is based on the formation of a metallorganic xero-gel at room temperature. The structural phase of powders and dense pellets were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), while the morphology was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measures were performed on dense pellet under synthetic air flux and hydrogen atmosphere in a temperature range between 200-750 ? with a frequency range of 10mHz-10MHz. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVproceeding.pdf#page=208 | |||||

Pd-Ag alloys have high selectivity for hydrogen gas permeation and thus are suitable for manufacturing hydrogen selective membranes. Accordingly, among the technological properties many authors have studied the electrical resistivity and linear expansion of the Pd-Ag-H system, but no data are available in a wide range of temperature and hydrogen pressure. During this activity, the solubility, the linear expansion, the resistivity and the permeability of a Pd/Ag (with Ag 25% wt) permeator tube has been measured in both hydrogenated and non-hydrogenated conditions. The experiments have been carried out in a temperature and in a lumen hydrogen partial pressure range of 50-400 ? and 0-400 kPa, respectively. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVproceeding.pdf#page=202 | |||||

These rods were evaluated in terms of hydrogen loading ratio (H/Pd). The hydrogen loading ratios of Pd-Ag and Pd-Ce alloys were compared with that of a pure Pd rod. The hydrogen loading ratios of Pd rods were subjected to a kneeling and/or cold-working (swaging) are also compared with that of a cast Pd rod. The results show that the alloying markedly reduces the loading ratio, and neither a kneeling (350 - 650?) your swaging (up to the processing ratio of 98%) produces a distinct effect. Pd and alloys of Ag and Ce were subjected to different treatments and tested for loading ability. The H/Pd ratio decreased as both the content of Ag or Ce increased. Annealing up to 650??? made no change over swaged material. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=306 | ||

During 1993, 10 out of 23 cells, whose electrolytes were analyzed using a newly set up dedicated liquid scintillation counting unit, indicated low tritium levels in the electrolyte, in the range of 0.5 to 4.8 Bq/ml. Except one cell, which contained 25% D2O, the remaining nine cells, which produced tritium, were charged with natural light water solutions only. Two of these cells, which were monitored for tritium every few days, and excluding cell OM-3, which was set up in 1992, indicated tritium level variations in a sawtooth fashion, suggesting the possible presence of an as yet unidentified mechanism responsible for periodically removing tritium from the electrolyte. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Sankaranarinvestigatb.pdf | ||||||

The nickel wires were found to absorb substantial quantity of hydrogen following several alternate cycles of absorption/desorption. But calorimetric studies conducted with the system so far indicate that we have not succeeded in triggering excess heat generation. However on dissolution and counting using standard liquid scintillation techniques, a number of hydrogen loaded nickel wires were found to contain tritium in the range of 3 Bq to 2333 Bq. This finding corroborates the detection of tritium in light water solutions electrolysed by nickel cathodes reported by the authors first at ICCF - 3 (Nagoya, 1992) and again at ICCF - 4 (Hawaii, 1993), confirming the occurrence of anomalous nuclear reactions in nickel-hydrogen systems. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Sankaranarevidencefo.pdf | ||

On the basis of detection of structural changes, it is reasonable to suggest that the generation of neutrons occurs at the instant of disruption of channel structure of solid, associated with compression of crystal lattice. Perhaps the processes of explosive character inside the crystal, caused structure rebuilding, take place. Such changes may be considered as phase transition. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=207 | |||

These materials may be considered as model object to be searched for the elucidation of mechanism of anomalous phenomena in solid/deuterium systems. The ceramics are in specific cases superior to palladium. Our experiments were conducted with ceramic sandwich-like structure on the base of strontium cerate, espesially synthesized, with porous platinum or palladium coating. Analysis of some peculiarities of conductivity nature of HTPC shows that conductivity can not be satisfactorily explained without considering interaction between protons as well as protons and crystal lattice environment. The available electrochemical data on ionic (in this case on hydrogen nuclei) transport suggest that processes of nuclear interaction simultaneously occur which may result in cold fusion phenomena. The phase transition at 445? and similar behavior at other points in the range to lOOO? were found. We have established that pass through a region of phase transition is correlated to heat effect. A transition from exothermic to endothermic effect during cooling and heating of ceramic has been found. Analysis of X-ray studies shows that processes of explosive character inside lattice of sample, which give rise to the neutron and heat effects, can occur. We observed a incomprehensible influence of background on neutron emission, as well as a decay of neutron background inside the protection container with the sample. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=163 | ||||

Sci., Vol = 19 | 264 Investigation of Enhancement and Stimulation of DD-reaction Yields in Crystalline Deuterated Heterostructures at Low Energies using the HELIS Ion Accelerator | Enhancement of reaction yield, DD-reaction, Ion accelerator, Neutron detector, Plastic track detector | In this study, we present the results of studies of DD reactions in crystalline heterostructures at low energies using the ion accelerator HELIS. The results of measurements of the DD-reaction yields from the Pd/PdO:Dx and the Ti/TiO2:Dx heterostructures in the energy range of 10?25 keV are presented. The neutron and proton fluxes are measured using a neutron detector based on 3Hecounters and a CR-39 plastic track detector. Comparisons with calculations show significant DD-reaction yield enhancement. It was first shown that the impact of the H+ and Ne+ ion beams in the energy range of 10?25 keV at currents of 0.01?0.1 mA on the deuterated heterostructure results in an appreciable DD-reaction yield stimulation. We also studied the neutron yield in DD reactions within a polycrystalline deuterium-saturated CVD diamond, during irradiation of its surface by a deuterium ion beam with energy of less than 30 keV. The measurements of the neutron flux in the beam direction are performed in dependence on the target angle, Beta, with respect to the beam axis. A significant anisotropy in neutron yield is observed, it was higher by a factor of 3 at Beta = 0 compared to that at Beta = +/- 45 deg. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=272 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 33 | Could LENR Change the World? | Climate change, Final energy, Fossil fuels, Global energy consumption, Greenhouse gases, Hydrogen, MHE, Nuclear, Oil, Primary energy, Renewables, Toe | World energy consumption is equivalent to 13865 million tons of oil (2018). Eighty one percent of energy is provided by fossil fuels. Energy generation releases 34 Gt of CO2 into the environment annually, which produces climate change. This paper considers the potential scenario with LENR sources of clean energy. It is based on the supposition that the new energy is generated by Metal Hydrogen Energy (MHE) stationary reactors that deliver heat at different temperature levels (100?200?350 deg C) as the technology evolves along the years. The potential penetration of LENR energy is analyzed taking into account the different conversion routes between the primary energy sources and the final industrial and domestic users. It is assumed that MHE replaces all conventional sources operated at a similar temperature level. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzf.pdf#page=320 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 33 | Basics of Air-Flow Calorimetry | Air flow calorimetry, Air heat capacity, Calibration, Flow meters, Heat measurement, High temperature, Transpiration cooling, Craters , Explosion, LENR, Melting | In the Mass Flow Calorimetry method, the heat released by an LENR reactor under test is measured by monitoring the temperature increase of a known flow of fluid passing over it. In the Air Flow Calorimetry method (AFC), the fluid is air. AFC appears to be a relatively simple method to measure the amount of heat produced by an LENR reactor. It is well suited when the LENR reactor surface temperature is high. It is easier to build than mass flow calorimeters using water-cooled or oil-cooled systems. Basically, the calorimeter is designed such that all the heat produced by the device under test is transferred to a known mass flow of cooling air. The accuracy of the method is governed by the control of the heat losses, the mass flow-rate of cooling air, the air heat capacity, the measure of the average air temperatures at inlet and outlet. Transpiration cooling is an efficient design to minimize the heat losses. The AFC method can be applied to reactors of any size and surface temperature. Its use is restricted to the testing of reactors that work continuously, because thermal equilibrium must be reached to make valid measurements. A thorough calibration procedure is essential to minimize the influence of errors on mass flows and temperature differences. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzf.pdf#page=258 | ||||||

Sometimes, when a piece of loaded palladium is removed from the cell, it turns red hot. A simplified numerical model confirms that high temperatures can be reached. The process requires a catalytic metal surface. The combination of a detonation in the gas phase and of palladium self-heating may offer an alternative scenario to explain the meltdown of the Fleischmann and Pons cell operated with a 1 cm cube palladium cathode. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzb.pdf#page=295 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 26 | Reanalysis of an Explosion in a LENR Experiment | Deflagration, Detonation, Electrolytic cell, Explosion, Pd cathode, SWACER | An electrolytic cell operated with a hollow Pd cathode exploded in 2004. The violence of the explosion was surprising. We decided to re-analyze this event. The examination of the cell remnants indicate that the explosion occurred in the gas phase, and the electrodes seem unaffected. The stoichiometric H2??2 mix can explode following different mechanisms that are briefly reviewed. A particular phenomenon called Shock Wave Amplification by Coherent Energy Release (SWACER) is able to produce strong detonations. A gas quantity similar to the original cell ignited by a hot spot or a spark produces only weak explosions that do not break the glass tube. Strong detonations are reproducibly obtained with a setup designed to induce the SWACER. The re-analysis of the event shows that the explosion was probably triggered by the SWACER resulting from a reaction in the hollow Pd cathode. In order to avoid accidents in the future during the operation of closed electrolytic cells, it is advised in addition to the conventional safety measures to avoid the presence of hollow, gas-filled metallic pieces in the reactor gas space, like a tube or a folded sheet. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedy.pdf#page=81 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 23 | Simulation of the Behavior of Exotic Neutral Particles by a Monte-Carlo Modelisation | Brownian motion, Exotic neutral particles, Hot spots, Monte-Carlo, Particle lifetime, Simulation | Hot spots are small features that some authors suppose are created by a sudden local release of thermal energy. For example, the estimation of the energy involved in the formation of a 2 ? crater is 3 ? 10-8 J or 2 ? 105 MeV. Some theories attempting to explain these phenomena, and excess heat in general, involve the role of Exotic Neutral Particles (ENP), like Polyneutrons or Erzions. According to such theories, these ENPs are relatively rare. The problem investigated in this paper is whether a single particle may trigger a series of many reactions within a short time in solids that are properly loaded. A Monte-Carlo simulation has been written to study the potential behavior of ENPs. It is shown that the ENPs follow a developed and Brownian type movement. The number of reactions occurring at a given depth below the surface is calculated, as well as the probability for a series to exceed a given value. From a pure mathematical viewpoint, a parallel can be made between the diffusion laws and Brownian motion. It is shown that a small fraction of the ENP flux can trigger large series of reaction, to the point that the energy that can be produced is not limited if the ENP is stable as long as it is present in the lattice. It is necessary to introduce a limited lifetime with a decay to reconcile the model with the experimental observations. The discussion of the simulation results in the light of experimental data leads me to propose a mean free path on the order of 100 ?, and a lifetime in the nanosecond range. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedv.pdf#page=32 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 22 | Basic Design Considerations for Industrial LENR Reactors | Gas leakage, Heat engines, Power control, Runaway, Self-sustaining, Stability, Thermal insulation | LENR reactors able to deliver heat at a high temperature can be coupled with heat engines to generate electric power. The conditions of temperature and COP to achieve self-sustaining operation are given. According to the literature, the heat generation rate of some LENR processes increases rapidly with the temperature. This phenomenon dictates the cooling criteria to maintain a stable reactor operation. Power control can be obtained through appropriate temperature regulation. Several types of heat engines can be coupled to LENR reactors with appropriate power control. Heat losses must be minimized with sufficient thermal insulation. The insulation enclosure is also useful to recover the leaks of light gas, if any are present in the system. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedu.pdf#page=12 | ||||||

Different modes of operation are described following the characteristics of the heat and energy balance. LENR reactors may be characterized by different parameters, Coefficient of Performance (COP) or Energy Amplification factor (A). The thermal insulation plays an important role. LENR reactors that require external heating in small units may become self-sustained for large sizes. The production of electricity involves the coupling with a thermal machine. The system is able to export power if the COP and the temperature are high enough. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedt.pdf#page=18 | ||||||

[1] the kinetics of heat transfer during the heat bursts at the origin of the formation of the micro-craters on Pd cathodes during electrolysis are discussed. It is assumed that LENR is the source of energy. In Ref. [2], M. Tsirlin made several comments. The present paper answers these comments. Tsirlin thinks it is premature to accept the fact that craters result from LENR events. Other less exotic phenomena should be considered first to explain the crater formation, before nuclear reactions. Tsirlin proposes three potential heat sources: (A) Recombination (molarization) of atomic hydrogen. (B) Oxidation of the hydrogen at the cathode surface by oxygen evolved at the anode. (C) Sudden emissions of the absorbed gas. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedm.pdf#page=11 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 12 | Simulation of Crater Formation on LENR Cathodes Surfaces | Cooling, Craters , Explosion, LENR, Melting | Many authors reported the presence of small-size craters on the surface of cathodes after Low-energy Nuclear Reaction (LENR) electrolysis experiments. It is conjectured the craters result from violent reactions, perhaps of nuclear origin. Nagel proposed a correlation between the crater diameter and the energy involved in its formation. Starting from this assumption, it can be estimated that the enthalpy released can raise the temperature of the crater content to about 2000 K. A simple model is used to calculate the crater cooling by conduction and radiation. It gives the order of magnitude of the maximum event duration in order to achieve some melting of the cathode material. The duration of the eruption is estimated from the gas pressure developed within the crater. A value of 6 ns is obtained for a 2? diameter, and 600 ns for a 20? crater. In large craters, a part of inner material can be molten. Small craters are strongly cooled by the surrounding metal and do not show signs of fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedk.pdf#page=59 | ||||||

It appears only if the exposure to X-ray film is done in atmosphere of hydrogen, oxygen or air. These emissions are also detected by TLD measurements.

The tip of the central titanium electrode is found to develop at least a few tens of microcuries of tritium after several plasma focus discharges. Neither the tritium impurity level in the deuterium gas used in the experiment nor the tritium branch of the d-d reactions that are known to occur in plasma focus devices can account for such activity in the electrode.

These experiments culminated in boil-off experiments in which cells produced over 100 W of excess heat, and stayed hot for hours without input power. In 1996, Pons reported another series of experiments in which reactions up to 101 W were sustained continuously for up to 70 days with reflux calorimeters. This introduction is for the general reader. It includes definitions of the isoperibolic, phase change and other methods, a discussion of how calibrations are performed, and some of the advanced features of Fleischmann and Pons? equipment and methods.

3503 | Conference Proceedings | Rothwell, J. | 2016 | Cold Fusion Will Lower the Cost of both Energy and Equipment | ICCF20 International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science | Sendai, Japan | Cold Fusion Will Lower the Cost of both Energy and Equipment | History | Cold fusion will lower the cost of energy because the fuel costs nothing. It will also greatly reduce the cost of many machines, especially electric generators. The cost of generators is likely to fall by a factor of 200, from $2,000/kW to $10/kW, which is the cost difference between a power company central generator and a portable gasoline generator. A radical reduction in the cost of one device does not always reduce the cost of others. Since 1900, the cost of illumination has fallen by a factor of 80, but this has not directly reduced the cost of other goods and services by a similar factor. Since 1970, the cost of computer memory has fallen by a factor of 108. Microprocessors and cheap memory enhanced many products. They brought us the Internet and ubiquitous cheap computing. But so far they have not drastically lowered costs outside of computer applications. Cold fusion is different. All machines use energy, so cold fusion will lower the cost of everything, but it will have the biggest impact replacing large, expensive machines with small mass-produced versions. Other new sources of energy such as solar panels also have zero cost fuel, but they will not reduce the cost of other machines. Only cold fusion can do this. It follows that the most profitable use of cold fusion in the first decades after it is introduced will be to replace existing technology, rather than to make radical new technology. Microprocessors brought us machines we did not have, such as cell phones and the Internet. Cold fusion will ? at first ? dramatically lower the cost of machines we already have. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/RothwellJcoldfusionb.pdf | |||||

There is no widely-accepted theoretical explanation. History shows that this kind of chaos is healthy in emergent science. In fields such as plasma fusion there is broad agreement and a solid theoretical basis, but not much progress. We should embrace chaos and celebrate intellectual ferment.

Many of these erroneous, off-the-cuff ramblings are still widely quoted today.? The three famous 'negative' experiments at Caltech, MIT, and Harwell are often cited as proof that cold fusion does not exist, although careful reexaminations have subsequently shown that the tests conducted at all three establishments did, in fact, yield positive results.?

His goal was to answer two critical questions: Does cold fusion produce helium along with excess heat, like a plasma fusion reaction? And if so, does it produce roughly as much helium per joule of energy as a plasma fusion reaction does? He answers both questions affirmatively. When a cold fusion palladium cathode becomes active, it releases helium into the electrolyte. The helium leaves the cell in the effluent deuterium and oxygen gas. Cathodes that produced more excess heat produced greater amounts of helium. The ratio of helium to energy is roughly comparable to that of hot fusion, within an order of magnitude. This is strong evidence that cold fusion really is some form of nuclear fusion, and not fission, zero point energy, or something else. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/RothwellJintroducti.pdf | ||||||

These chance sightings have been documented by polling observers, who constitute perhaps 5% of the adult U.S. population. Unfortunately, ball lightning is not accessible to scientific analysis because it cannot be reproduced in the laboratory under controlled conditions. Natural ball lightning has been observed to last longer than 90 s and to have diameters from 1 cm to several metres. The energy density of a few lightning balls has been observed to be as high as 20 000 J/cm3, well above the limit of chemical energy storage of, for example, TNT at 2000 J/cm3. Such observations suggest a plasma-related phenomenon with significant magnetic energy storage. If this is the case, ball lightning should have very interesting implications for fusion research, industrial plasma engineering, and military applications, as well as being of great theoretical and practical interest to the plasma research community. | https://sci-hub.se/10.13182/fst95-a30388 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTfA7qeL7Gk | Bob Reviews this paper on YouTube with live feedback | ||||

The introduction of a magnetic field perpendicular to the sample surface results in an increase in the tritium activity, and in the tritium generation rate, of almost two orders of magnitude as compared to similar experiments run with no magnetic field. The largest tritium generation rates observed were obtained with the glow discharge operating in a magnetic field, and were in the range 109-1010 atom/s.

It is shown, that second, slowed down stage of tritium accumulation in gas at long interaction of hydrogen isotopes with heated up sample can be connected with nuclear reactions since it is experimentally shown, that at interaction of heated up metal samples with hydrogen isotopes the tritium concentration in gas was decreases for reason of tritium transition in sample, stipulated by isotope effects. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=330 | ||

The new phenomenon of shift for maximum temperature in direction of rotation of metal sample, on relation to discharge axis on hydrogen isotopes is found out. This shift testifies about excess heat at increased temperatures, which can be connected with irreversible process (for example by nuclear reactions or reactions with formations of heavy complexes). The mechanism of low energy nuclear reactians in condensed media (NRCM) is offered, one of certificates for existence which should be the registration of X-ray radiation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=325 | ||

The liquid in the cell is a solution including a silicate, a lithium salt, and a surfactant. The electrical stimuli are RF signals and, optionally, a direct current. The protocol generates an exothermic reaction characterized by sharp temperature transients. We have successfully used three different silicates and four different metals for electrodes. We believe the exothermic reaction is nuclear in nature. The evidence supporting that statement includes: * Data logs show brief, intense temperature transients. * Electron diffraction scattering (EDS) analyses show elements to be present after the reaction that could be transmutation products of several elements in the ingredients of the protocol, specifically including silver, a possible transmutation product of palladium. * Auger analysis of one experiment also shows evidence of transmutation of the elements in the reaction cell. * SEM photos show 'volcanic sites' and other evidence of metal migration. * Other SEM photos show large areas where electrodes have spalled during experiments. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedi.pdf#page=35 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 12 | Neutrino Equation of Motion and Neutrino?lectron Bound Pairs in LENR | Electron, Neutrino, Nucleon, Positron, W-boson | The long-established electron-capture reaction e- +p+ = n +? may be considered to be a prototype reaction in the nascent ?eld of physics known as low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) since it involves an interface between electron and atomic physics (EAP) on the left-hand side and nuclear physics on the right-hand side of the reaction. It is a form of inverse beta decay n = p+ +e- +?, which is understood using a conceptual and mathematical methodology (forces mediated by the exchange of bosons known as force carriers and speci?cally for beta decay the W- boson as the force carrier for the electroweak force) which is totally foreign to EAP but well-supported by copious nuclear experimental data. Since no such established experimental database exists in LENR, an equation of motion (EOM) is proposed for the neutrino in analogy to Dirac's equation, which is the EOM for the electron. The combined electron and neutrino EOM's support temporary neutrino-electron binding and discover the mass and length scales of a nucleon on an ab initio basis. It is believed that the bound pair is a form of W boson, symbolized here by W? s for binding of a neutrino to a positron or electron (?) and for spin (s) equal to 0 or 1. It is also believed that W? bosons may be useful as building blocks in constructing models in the LENR regime which may be physically equivalent to quarks and the known W? boson in the high-energy regime. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedk.pdf#page=46 | ||||||

Phys. 7 (2005) 127] that states with binding energy and size below those of known literature values are incompatible with quantum mechanics is corrected by reviewing the analytically known Coulomb solution of the Klein-Gordon equation with binding energy of order mc2 and size of order of the Compton wavelength. This is an example of a quantum state, which is mathematically acceptable in the sense of being square integrable and having a finite binding energy but yet is rejected as unphysical due in part to the point-nucleus nature of the model. Then the Dirac equation is studied for the existence of states which are similarly mathematically acceptable but whose physical acceptability requires physical judgment. States of Landau symmetry are found which meet these criteria. The existence of states of ambiguous physical interpretation for both the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations depends on using a point-nucleus versus a finite-nucleus potential model. On using a realistic model for the charge distribution of the proton, a Klein-Gordon state is found in the binding range of 5 keV, but no state is found for the Dirac equation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedj.pdf#page=106 | ||||||

In the case of models in which the electron is tightly bound to the H isotope atom, we show that states below the most deeply bound (-16.39 eV) are impossible in principle. We also present evidence against the possibility of the existence of electron-H isotope resonances. Finally, a lower bound is found for the binding energy of H isotope molecules which is above that calculated in the tightly bound electron-H isotope models. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/RiceRAcommentsona.pdf | ||||

Jr D fusion rates are shown to be comparable to D-D fusion rates for E ~ 10 eV, so that in electrolysis experiments with equal amounts of H and D, p-D fusion should compete with D-D fusion as a reaction mechanism. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NCFIthefirstan.pdf#page=204 | ||

3412 | Manuscript | Reifenschweiler, O. | 2003 | Cold Fusion and Decrease of Tritium Radioactivity | LENR-CANR.org | Cold Fusion and Decrease of Tritium Radioactivity | titanium, tritium, reduced radioactivity | In recent papers (1, 2, 3, 4) the author has deduced from experiments with tritium (5) that during heating of a TiT0.0035 -preparation and of a TiT0.0035-preparation the radioactivity of the tritium decreased strongly. This strange effect was distinctly confirmed by the observation that with the TiT0.0035-preparation the radioactivity decreased 12.5 times stronger than the release of tritium (2,3,4). A quite independent proof of the strong decrease of λ of tritium could be obtained by a thermodynamic evaluation of the heating experiment with the TiT0.0035-preparation: Assuming that λ of tritium decreases to zero or nearly zero in a part of the tritons enables the determination of the number of tritons with normal λ, nT and the number of tritons with λ ≈ 0 nTo, both as a function of temperature.

A large glass bulb is vacuum coated with Ti on its inside surface, tritium allowed in to form the tritide, and the gas pumped out. A temperature program is applied, and the radiation from the tritide layer goes down markedly, before tritium has escaped from the layer (checked by monitoring pressure changes). The author connects these puzzling findings with cold fusion but cannot explain them. | titanium, tritium, reduced radioactivity, Ti | Experiments claiming a sharp decrease in the radioactivity of tritium incorporated in small monocrystalline particles of titanium have been reported and are described here in more detail. Additional evaluation provides a high degree of evidence for the decrease in the radioactivity of tritium. A first attempt is made to explain this remarkable effect in terms of a 'nuclear pair hypothesis.' | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/Reifenschwsomeexperia.pdf | ||||||

In further experiments the concentration of tritium in such preparations was varied (TiTx experiments) showing that the radioactivity of the tritium increased less than proportionally to its concentration.

Then it is shown that the model could account for the solar neutrino discrepancy. The paper ends up by a short reminder of two experimental data, in agreement with the HOREA point of view: experimentally noticed Electron accumulations, and Top-Table soft X-ray Laser operation. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=430 | ||

Sci., Vol = 24 | Evidence for Nuclear Transmutations in Ni-Pt Electrolysis | Electrolysis, LENR, Ni?? systems, Transmutation | We report an easily reproducible Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) electrolysis experiment on an Ni?? system. An electrolytic cell with a Ni cathode and a Pt anode with an aqueous (H2O not D2O) solution of K2CO3 as electrolyte was used for the experiment. A dc-power supply capable of supplying up to 5 A current was used to drive the electrolysis with the typical current being around 4 A and the applied voltage about 100 V. After running the electrolysis for about two weeks with a daily run time of 8 h on an average, a part of the nickel electrode, which by this time had become black, was taken for elemental analysis using Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). The EDS analysis showed that a whole host of new elements had appeared on the cathode such as: K, Fe, Cu, O, Rh, Zr and Pb. The apparent concentration of the elements varied from just over a percent for K and Pb to about 10% for Rh and 20% for Cu. The sample was then taken to a Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometer (ToF-SIMS) for isotopic analysis. This analysis also showed that a set of new elements had appeared on the nickel wire which were: K, Si, Mg, Mn, Zn, O & Rh. The Ni itself was found to have the following isotopes: 58Ni, 60Ni and 62Ni with isotope concentration ratios differing significantly from the ratio found in naturally occurring Ni. It was clear that in the electrolyzed Ni the concentrations of 60Ni and 62Ni had gone down compared to the concentration of 58Ni. This is a clear indication that nuclear reactions had taken place during electrolysis. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=290 | ||||||

Most of the work reported, so far, concerns deuterium charging of Pd metal through electrolysis of D2O. In the Chemistry Division, we have carried out some experiments on the deuteriding behaviour of Ti metal, through gaseous route, in the absorption as well as desorption modes, with the view to look for the fusion products, neutrons in the present case. These kinds of experiments have been reported by Frascatti Group in Italy.

Apparatus development began, after patent application, 05 June 1995. The triode apparatus introduces controlled loading and operation of Fleischmann/Pons-type (F/P) cells. In August 1995 excess heat generation was observed in initial triode apparatus experiments conducted by Dr. Dennis Cravens in his New Mexico laboratory. In November 1995 the Boiler Works laboratory in Diamondhead began experimental evaluation of the triode apparatus. A series of experiments in December, January and February led to development of a functioning triode fusion reactor. The reactor was put into operation 20 March 1996 and operated continuously until 23 August 1996. Over the five months of operation of the reactor several experiments were preformed and over 65,000 data pOints were recorded. This data base is being applied in further triode apparatus developments. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=139 | |||

Electrolysis generates many more cations than are necessary to sustain ionization in the cell. The excess cations are adsorbed on the cathode surface where they create an electrical charge Qo of ?vervoltage' Eo. 2 A small fraction (0.01 to 0.1%) of the adsorbed cations, which are thousands of times smaller than typical electrolysis cations and driven by meV adsorption kinetics, penetrate several hundred lattice layers into the cathode metal.

In a spherical bubble compression and until the bubble assumes a pancake collapse shape, a temperature increase does not occur in the bubble gas because the mean free path likely exceeds the bubble diameter. The subsequent collapse of the pancake shape to liquid density occurs with only a negligible volume change so that the temperature increase for compression heating of bubble gases is insignificant. Even near liquid density, a temperature increase does not occur as the energy transfer by molecular collisions is in the adiabatic limit for both vibrational and rotational modes. Instead, the IR radiation energy density present within the bubble is increased as required to satisfy standing wave boundary conditions with the bubble walls in the direction of collapse. For biological tissue in an opaque environment, bubble collapse is found to increase the 5- 10 micron I R thermal radiation at ambient temperature to about 3-5 e V that is capable of dissociating the water molecule and forming the chemically reactive hydroxyl radical. Hence, the biological effects of ultrasonic cavitation are proposed to be caused by the chemical reaction of the organisms with the excited electronic states of dissolved oxygen and water molecules. Proposes bubble collapse produces UV radiation by an energy amplification process and this can kill bacteria. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=346 | ||

As a partial excuse I may quote a recent review article of mine, where I try to discuss the most significant theories of cold fusion, and the fact that nothing much new has happened in the last few months. Nor will I discuss cold fusion in the non-equilibrium. conditions prevailing in Titanium, fracto-emission and 'lukewarm' fusion. I shall rather try to examine first the strange facts of hydrogen incorporation into Palladium, and then I shall discuss the phenomena of cold fusion in relation to those facts. In the light of the known experimental data I will then discuss the general features of what we might call 'possible' and 'impossible' theories of cold fusion, somehow drawing a demarcation line between which theoretical ideas can and cannot explain those observations, given the well established and accepted general laws of condensed matter (Quantum Electro Dynamics, QED) and nuclear physics (Quantum Chromo Dynamics, QCD). My discussion will follow quite closely a paper recently completed in collaboration with M. Fleischmann and S . Pons. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/SIFthescience.pdf#page=468 | ||

Sci., Vol = 13 | 455-463 Neutron Emission from Cryogenically Cooled Metals Under Thermal Shock | Deuterium, Neutrons, Phase Change, Surface preparation, Thermal shock, Titanium | During the summer of 1991, intense neutron bursts were observed after temperature shocking titanium chips which had been saturated with deuterium gas. The titanium chips were cooled and loaded with deuterium at 77 K and then rapidly heated to 323 K. The rapid heating produces a large pressure increase inside the crystalline lattice of the host metal. An Event Timer/Counter (ETC) card was designed and developed which counted and kept a time distribution of the neutron pulses as they occurred from a helium-3 neutron counter embedded in a paraffin moderator [1]. The experiment produced copious neutron counts. During one cooling and heating cycle, over 2 million neutrons were counted over a 5 min time period. In subsequent cooling and heating cycles using the same titanium chips, significant neutron bursts were observed with diminishing counts after each subsequent cycle. This paper will discuss the 1991 experiments and the status of ongoing experiments. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PrelasMAneutronemi.pdf | ||||||

All the parameters of mass distribution, quantum states and field excitation contribute to the process that involves more than two bodies that are not smashed together through their Coulombian barrier, as is the normal nuclear practice. New concepts in physics such as quantum nonlocality and potential formation of nuclear molecules come into play when considering high quantum energy reactions triggered by low energy excitation of special quantum states. Several nuclear or sub-nuclear entities in various positions may entangle putting the nuclear mass in special communion that may react and end in totally different structures than for normally encountered combinations. In the past 20 years of experiments, some observations of reactions producing heat only, reactions exhibiting strong bursts of neutrons, gammas and X-rays, some explosions, and over 40 accidents give strong support for new physics ideas in the world. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PopaSimilLthefusiont.pdf | ||||

We have then adopted the procedure of allowing the cells to boil to dryness. For these conditions the galvanostats are driven to the rail voltage (100 V) but the cell current is reduced to zero. We have then found that cells which contained D2O frequently remain at high temperatures (in the vicinity of 100?) before cooling rapidly to the bath temperature. Cells containing H2O can also be driven to the boiling point but such cells cool immediately on terminating the experiments. This phenomenon has become known as 'Heat after Death' (the death referring to cessation of polarisation). Calibrations of the cells for such conditions show the generation of high levels of enthalpy at zero enthalpy input. Methods of investigating such systems will be outlined. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSheatafterd.pdf | |||

It has therefore been necessary to adopt a low cost approach; our solution has been to use the single compartment Dewar cell type calorimeters illustrated in Fig. 1 and we have maintained up to five of these cells in each of three specially constructed water baths (see Section 1 below). The same type of calorimeter has been used for blank measurements on the Pd-H, Pt-D, and Pt-H systems. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NCFIthefirstan.pdf#page=20 | ||

As far as the gravitation, electromagnetic and weak interactions are the same in both of kind crystals, this only changes the residual strong interaction. Therefore, we conclude that the renormalization of the energy of electromagnetic excitations (electrons, excitons, and phonons) is carried out by the residual strong nuclear interaction. The necessity to take into account the more close relation between quantum chromodynamics and quantum electrodynamics is underlined. In the first step quantum electrodynamics should take into account the residual strong interaction at the description of the dynamics of elementary excitations (electrons, excitons, and phonons) dynamics. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzb.pdf#page=512 | ||||||

We will briefly report the results of our campaign of experiments on piezonuclear reactions where ultrasounds and cavitation were applied to solutions of stable elements. These outcomes will be shown to be compatible with the results and evidences obtained from low energy nuclear reaction experiments. Some theoretical concepts and ideas, on which our experiments are grounded, will be sketched and it will be shown that, in order to trigger our measured effects, it exists an energy threshold, that has to be overcome, and a maximum interval of time for this energy to be released to the nuclear system. Eventually, a research hypothesis will be put forward about the chance to raise the level of analogy from the mere comparison of results up to the phenomenological level. Here, among the various evidences collected in LENR experiments, we will search for hints about the overcome of the energy threshold and about the mechanism that releases the loaded energy in a suitable interval of time. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ViolanteVproceedinga.pdf#page=63 | |||||

[2]. These gains have been associated with 'cold fusion' or Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) where energy is released from a deuterium-deuterium (d-d) fusion. Clearly, this raises fundamental questions because the probability of a d-d fusion, under the conditions of the FPE cell, is extremely small. As stated in ref. [1], 'it is necessary to reconsider the quantum mechanics of electrons and deuterons in such host lattices.' The goal of this paper is to predict possible changes in the probability of d-d fusion, caused by perturbations to the energy barriers or positive interference caused by the effects of adjacent atoms in a lattice. We report preliminary work on formulating quantum-mechanical models of the behavior of deuterium atoms trapped in a lattice. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PembertonSquantummec.pdf | ||||

Sci., Vol = 19 | 257 Search for Low-energy X-ray and Particle Emissions from an Electrochemical Cell | Anomalous heat effect, Electrolytic cell, Low energy, PdD cathode, X-rays | Several theories to explain anomalous heat production predict the emission of low-energy X-rays and/or MeV alpha particles from PdD cathodes in electrochemical cells. Such radiation, however, is not detectable from outside of a standard electrochemical cell due to absorption in the electrolyte and cell walls. A custom cell was therefore assembled which permits X-rays of energy > 1 keV to pass through a thin cathodic membrane and enter into an X-ray detector with minimal attenuation. This test cell geometry also potentially allows any emitted MeV alpha particles to be detected when they impact a Pd cathode and cause fluorescent emission of Pd-K (21.2, 23.8 keV) X-rays. The detection of X-ray emissions from a membrane electrolytic cell potentially permits the mechanism(s) for anomalous heat production to be investigated with great sensitivity. As an example, a typical X-ray detector allows 1 keV X-rays to be detected at emission rates of less than one per second and this level of sensitivity corresponds to a thermal resolution of < 0.2 fW. Time resolved X-ray spectral data ranging from 1 to 30 keV was collected for over a year using various types of membranes and different electrolytic solutions. None of these test cells, however, yielded any X-rays which were above ambient background levels. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=265 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 15 | 288 The Case for Deuteron Stripping with Metal Nuclei as the Source of the Fleischmann?ons Excess Heat Effect | Deuterium, Energy, Metals, Nuclear, Oppenheimer?hillips | Evidence is cited from the research literature on metals containing absorbed deuterium supporting the hypothesis that the excess heat episodes observed over the past 25 years are the result of exothermic deuteron stripping reactions with atomic nuclei of the absorbing metal. The deuteron stripping reaction is one in which the neutron half of the mass 2 deuteron is captured by an atomic nucleus while the proton half of the deuteron is ejected, repelled by the coulomb field of the positively charged metal nucleus. This hypothesis provides a plausible explanation why so little external radiation accompanies the episodes of excess heat first observed by Fleischmann and Pons [1]. The reaction products from stable isotopes of the host metal are a proton with energies up to 9.2 MeV energy and a recoiling nucleus with energies of 100??o 600 keV. These two reaction products are retained near their birthplace because their range in solids is less than 100 m. The emitted proton is energetic enough to produce by (p,n), (p, ), (p,T), and (p,X-ray), reactions with host metal nuclei and their light-element impurities, the small number of neutrons, alpha particles, tritium atoms (T), and X-rays, occasionally observed associated with deuterated Ti and Pd. The PIXE process (proton induced X-ray emission) is expected in which numerous K, L, and M X-rays of the absorbing metal are produced. For metals with thicknesses of >1 mm the vast majority of such X-rays do not escape the metal. In experiments with foils of the host metal sufficiently thin, low levels of charged particles (mostly protons) have been observed. Some of the observed protons were at energies larger than 3.0 MeV, the largest possible energy of protons from the fusion of two deuterons. Widely observed He4 and tritium are known products of the deuteron stripping reaction with Li6, which is a major constituent of electrolytes and a minor impurity in most metals. In any case, researchers have observed small but definite indicators of nuclear reactions other than d+d fusion in deuterated metals at temperatures not significantly above ambient. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedn.pdf#page=295 | ||||||

Of particular interest are cathodes and particulate Pd which had experienced episodes of excess heat production beyond all electrical and other inputs. This paper details the careful analysis by neutron activation analysis (NAA) of a set of three samples of finely powdered Pd exposed to high deuterium pressures (hundreds of atmospheres) near room temperature at the core of hollow cylindrical Pd cathodes. A fourth sample of unused Pd powder from the same batch used in the cathodes was analyzed as a control. The most prominent change observed in the three active samples versus the virgin Pd was the Zn-64 content. The active samples showed an increase in the Zn-64 isotope of 6 to 14 times that in the virgin Pd. Speculation regarding the source of this increased zinc varies from contamination during electron beam welding (used to seal off the hollow core) to nuclear reactions generated by high pressure deuterium gas on the large surface area Pd particles in the core. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PassellTOtraceeleme.pdf | ||

The analytical method used is known as prompt gamma activation analysis (PGAA) using a thermal neutron beam from a research reactor. Most isotopes capture neutrons with the emission of several unique gamma rays, so any isotopic ratio changes from heat production could change the ratios of gamma rays. Such ratios have been measured to an accuracy around 1% using germanium detectors. One such ratio is that of boron-10 to palladium-105. Boron is present in most Pd as an impurity up to several hundred PPM by weight. Significant depletion of the B-10 isotope has been observed in a number of cathodes relative to that in the virgin material. Conventional explanations of this result such as natural variation within a given batch are not yet resolved. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=309 | ||

The EPRI program began in April, 1989, and has successfully confinned the presence of the claimed excess heat but has yet to determine its source. Measurable helium-4 has been observed in the cell vapor space in a few cases, but so far , not in a definitive manner. The major evidence that the heat may be from nuclear reactions is its magnitude - some 10 to 100 times larger than any known chemical reaction. The objective of the continuing effort is to identify the source of the excess heat. This paper focusses upon comparing measurements on cathodes that successfully produced excess heat with the same measurements on virgin material from the same batch of palladium. Initial measurements on one cathode that produced 0.56 megajoules of excess heat and its virgin counterpart are reported here. The analytical method chosen is a non destructive one known as prompt gamma activation analysis (PGAA) using thennal n~utrons in beams from research reactors. Since almost every isotope captures neutrons with the emission of several gamma rays unique to that isotope, any isotopic ratio changes from the heat production process will be converted to a change in the relative ratios of gamma ray intensities. Such ratios can be measured to an accuracy in the range around 1 % using high resolution gennanium detection systems. Thus any changes due to the production or loss of any isotope present can be detected and related to the excess heat produced. One such measurement using PGAA appears to show an -18% reduction in the ratio of boron-l 0 to palladium-l05 in the active cathode relative to the ratio in virgin material. Conventional explanations of this result such as selective chemical leaching of boron by the electrolyte are currently being tested. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=297 | ||

The EPRI program began in April, 1 989, and has continued to the present time attempting to replicate the claimed excess heat and determine its source. Under conditions difficult to achieve, some 16 separate experiments have successfully reached that goal out of some 35 major attempts. The conditions found necessary for an observation of excess heat were found to be at least three in number: 1) atomic loading ratio (DlPd) > -0.9; 2) Initiation time of 8 to 23 days; 3) current density >0. 1 amperes per cm^2 of cathode area. A fourth condition suggested by the results of a recent experiment is that the FLUX of deuterium across the palladium metal surface must be above some threshold value. No definitive source for the excess heat has been yet robustly determined, but measurable helium-4 has been observed in the cell vapor space in a few cases. The major evidence that the heat may be from nuclear reactions is its magnitude - some 10 to 100 times larger than any known chemical reaction. The objective of the continuing effort is focussed upon identifying the source of the excess heat. Sonic cavitation at a Pd-D2O interface has apparently produced both He-4 in the vapor phase as well as apparent excess heat. This research has identified a huge matrix of possible experiments to confirm or refute various hypotheses on the source of the heat. To acquire sufficient resources to explore this matrix requires, in my opinion, a definitive signature of a nuclear reaction connected with the production of heat. Then and only then, with the promise of a potential energy source of almost unlimited size, will the necessary research funds be forthcoming. Brief review of SRI work.

Passell | neutron, gamma emission | Three cells were electrolyzed in series at constant low current 42 days near a neutron detector of low background (40 counts/hr) using a protocol of adding boron and aluminum at 0.001 molar to the 0.1 molar LiOD electrolyte at ~18th day. Cathodes were loaded with deuterium at a few 10?? of milliamps/cm^2, with a 12-hour cryogenic treatment at day 17. Cathodes were sanded and replaced in the cell every 7 days. On the ~21st & 22nd days two successive fast neutron episodes were observed at about 2 times background. The neutron detector is minimally sensitive to gamma rays but gammas were observed near the end of the 20-hour neutron episode. When the cells were dismantled in late Sept 1992, all three cathodes (6 mm diameter x 60 mm long) were observed to be mildly radioactive. Analysis by germanium gamma detectors revealed presence of 100 billion atoms of Ag, Pd, Rh, and (one) Ru isotopes having ratios unlike those from bombardment by high-energy deuteron or proton beams. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PassellTOradiationd.pdf | ||||

For 5 billion years, the sun has warmed the Earth with energy derived from the fusion of hydrogen atoms to form helium. Fortunately, even in the fierce caldron of the sun, fusion is a slow process that will continue unabated for billions of years.

Now, while using new information thanks to semi-classical computations, we come back to deep electrons as solutions of the Dirac equation, to solve several important and subtle outstanding issues, such as the continuity of derivatives of wave functions, a spectral problem about the energy levels associated with the wave functions to compute, as well as essential relativistic and energy parameters of the solutions. We thus obtain a better completeness of the solutions.

Moreover, we revealed the essential role of Special Relativity as source of electron deep orbits (EDOs). We also showed, from a well-known analytic method of solution of the Dirac equation, that the obtained EDOs have a positive energy. When including the magnetic interactions near the nucleus, we observed a breakthrough in how to satisfy the Heisenberg Uncertainty Relation (HUR) for electrons confined near the nucleus, in a radial zone of only a few fm. Here we chose a different method, by directly facing the HUR for such confined electrons, from which we deduce the coefficient ? of these highly relativistic electrons. Then we show the effective Coulomb potential due to a relativistic correction, can maintain the electrons in containment. Next we resume and deepen our study of the effects of EM interactions near the nucleus. We first obtain computation results: though approximate, we can effectively expect high-energy resonances near the nucleus. These results should be confirmed by using QFT-based methods. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedy.pdf#page=59 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 24 | Advance on Electron Deep Orbits of the Hydrogen Atom | Deep electron levels, LENR, Magnetic interactions, Relativistic quantum physics, Singular solutions | In the previous works, we discussed arguments for and against the deep orbits, as exemplified in published solutions. So we considered the works of Maly and Va??ra on the topic, the most complete solution available and one showing an infinite family of EDO solutions. In particular, we deeply analyzed their second of these papers, where they consider a finite nucleus and look for solutions with a Coulomb potential modified inside the nucleus. In the present paper, we quickly recall our analysis, verification, and extension of their results. Moreover, we answer to a recent criticism that the EDOs would represent negative energy states and therefore would not qualify as an answer to the questions posed by Cold Fusion results. We can prove, by means of a simple algebraic argument based on the solution process, that, while at the transition region, the energy of the EDOs are positive. Next, we deepen the essential role of Special Relativity as source of the EDOs, which we discussed in previous papers. But the central topic of our present study is an initial analysis of the magnetic interactions near the nucleus, with the aim of solving important physical questions: do the EDOs satisfy the Heisenberg Uncertainty relation (HUR)? Are the orbits stable? So, we examine some works related to the Vigier??arut Model, with potentials including magnetic coupling. We also carried out approximate computations to evaluate the strength of these interactions and the possibilities of their answering some of our questions. As a first result, we can expect the HUR to be respected by EDOs, due to the high energies of the magnetic interactions near the nucleus. Present computations for stability do not yet give a plain result; we need further studies and tools based on QED to face the complexity of the near-nuclear region. For the creation of EDOs, we outline a possibility based on magnetic coupling. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=270 | ||||||

An introduction shows the importance of the deep orbits of hydrogen (H or D) for research in the LENR domain, and gives some general considerations on the Electron Deep Orbits (EDO) and on other works about deep orbits. A first part recalls the known criticism against the EDO and how we face it. At this occasion we highlight the difference of resolution of these problems between the relativistic Schr?inger equation and the Dirac equation, which leads for this latter, to consider a modified Coulomb potential with finite value inside the nucleus. In the second part, we consider the specific work of Maly and Va??ra on deep orbits as solutions of the Dirac equation, the so-called Deep Dirac Levels (DDLs). As a result of some criticism about the matching conditions at the boundary, we verified their computation, but by using a more complete ansatz for the ??nside? solution. We can confirm the approximate size of the mean radii ?r? of DDL orbits and that ?r? decreases when the Dirac angular quantum number k increases. This latter finding is a self-consistent result since (as distinct from the atomic-electron orbitals) the binding energy of the DDL electron increases (in absolute value) with k. We observe that the essential element for obtaining deep orbits solutions is special relativity. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedv.pdf#page=67 | ||||||

An introduction shows the importance of the deep orbits of hydrogen (H or D) for research in the LENR domain, and gives some general considerations on the Electron Deep Orbits (EDOs). In a first part we quickly recall the known criticism against the EDO and how we face it. In particular, a solution to fix all problems is to consider a modified Coulomb potential with finite value inside the nucleus. For this reason, we deeply analyzed the specific work of Maly and Va??ra on deep orbits as solutions of the Dirac equation, with such a modified Coulomb potential without singular point. Then, by using a more complete ansatz, we made numerous computations on the wavefunctions of these EDOs, allowing to confirm the approximate size of the mean radii ?r? of orbits and to find further properties. Moreover, we observed that the essential element for obtaining deep orbits solutions is special relativity. At a first glance, this fact results from an obvious algebraic property of the expression of energy levels obtained by the relativistic equations. Now, a comparative analysis of the relativistic and of the non-relativistic Schr?inger equation allows us to affirm that Special Relativity leads to the existence of EDOs because of the non-linear form of the relativistic expression for the total energy, which implies a relativistic non-linear correction to the Coulomb potential. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedt.pdf#page=45 | ||||||

Acceptance of these levels and, in particular, experimental evidence of their existence would have major implications for the basis for cold fusion and would open up new fields of femto-physics and -chemistry. An introduction shows some general considerations on these orbits as ?nomalous? (and usually rejected) solutions of relativistic quantum equations. The first part of our study is devoted to a discussion of the arguments against the deep orbits and for them, as exemplified in published solutions. We examine each of the principal negative arguments found in the literature and show how it is possible to resolve the questions raised. In fact, most of the problems are related to the singularity of the Coulomb potential when considering the nucleus as a point charge, and so they can be easily resolved when considering a more realistic potential with finite value inside the nucleus. In a second part, we consider specific works on deep orbits, named Dirac Deep Levels (DDLs), as solutions of the relativistic Schr?inger and of the Dirac equations. The latter presents the most complete solution and development for spin 1/2 particles, and includes an infinite family of DDL solutions. We examine particularities of these DDL solutions and more generally of the anomalous solutions. Next, we analyze the methods for, and the properties of, the solutions that include a corrected potential inside the nucleus, and we examine the questions raised by this new element. Finally, we indicate, in the conclusion, open questions such as the physical meaning of the relation between quantum numbers determining the deep levels and the fact that the angular momentum seems two orders-of-magnitude lower than the values associated with the Planck constant. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=238 | ||||||

Electrolysis of a D20 solution containing IOmM S^2- produced 'burst-like' excess heat up to 14% over 12 hours after 6 days' electrolysis. The production of excess heat was absent from a control experiment using LiOH/H2O in the place of LiOD/D2O. It seemed that the magnitude and reproducibility of the excess heat production were improved by the addition of S^2- to the electrolyte solutions. In this study, in situ observations of topographic changes at electrode surfaces during the electrolysis were also conducted using phase measurement interferometric microscopy (PMIM). The absorption of hydrogen into a Pd cathode was clearly seen to bring about surface roughening even at a very low hydrogen content of less than H/Pd=0.005. Original surface topography was readily restored by desorbing hydrogen from the Pd electrode by using it as the anode. The absorption and desorption of deuterium similarly induced the reversible surface topography change. The extent of the surface roughening due to the hydrogen absorption varied with electrode materials and crystal facets of Pd single crystals. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=249 | ||

Decrease in resonant frequency was observed during the electrolysis. The decrease was attributed to the mass change involving hydrogen absorption into the palladium and lithium underpotential deposition, the mechanical stress change in the electrode, and the change in roughness of the electrode surface. The stress change, which may be caused by hydrogen uptake, was estimated using palladium film-coated AT- and BT-cut quartz crystal oscillators. The surface roughness change was observed by scanning electron microscopy and a number of cracks and holes were found. Underpotential deposition of lithium was observed in propylene carbonate containing 0.1 M LiClO4 and 16 mg L^-1 water. Contributions of respective factors to the total frequency change was estimated. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=314 | ||

When the electric power of 0.2 W was employed, excess heat generation (2.4%) was observed once out of 5 experiments. No significant generation of excess heat was observed for LiOH/H2O electrolysis. In the case where the electric power of 0.3 W was employed, excess heat was observed (2.7%) for more than one month in the presence of 200 ppm aluminum. Depositon of aluminum onto the palladium surface was examined by means of in situ electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance. A closed calorimeter was used and gave a small amount of excess heat. The effect of Li and Al on loading and overvoltage studied. Little data given. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=77 | ||

The abstract begins: The in situ observation of the absorption of deuterium (or hydrogen) into the Pd cathode during D2O (or H2O) electrolysis was made by an electrochemical microbalance technique which is based on the quartz-crystal electrode. The resonant frequency of the Pd-coated quartz-crystal electrode decreased with increasing amount of charge passed during electrolysis, and the frequency change for the D2O electrolysis was about twice that for the H2O electrolysis. The atom ratios of H/Pd and D/Pd of the H-Pd and D-Pd compounds resulting from the electrolysis were estimated to be 0.59 and 0.57, respectively. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/OyamaNprobingabs.pdf | ||||||

Only for LiOD system with pulse mode current electrolysis, anomalous high density of deuterium and lithium and the dynamic movement of deuterium are observed on the surface of the Pd cathode. A clear difference in absorption, desorption and depth profiles between LiOD(H) and NaOD(H) or KOD(H) system with the pulse mode current electrolysis is identified. This difference is at?ributed to the lithium accumulation structure on the Pd surface; only the pulse mode current electrolysis of Pd-LiOD system brings about the anomalous phenomena. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/OyaYtheroleofa.pdf | ||

The movement of the hydrogen isotopes in Pd was found to be influenced strongly by the conditions of the electrolysis, such as the current density, the repetition time. The dynamic absorptionldesorption movement can be realized by the pulse mode electrolysis with the current density higher than 200mA/cm2 and the repetition time longer than 3 hours. In these dynamic movement of the hydrogen isotopes, anomalous isotope effects have been observed and discussed with respect to the new hydrogen energy research. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=43 | |||

The special attention was paid on the concentration of B in the palladium cathode. The B concentration was controlled from 127 to 1000 ppm. Using Pd that contained 127ppm and 1000ppm B, the excess heat was not observed. While, using Pd that contained 267ppm and 500ppm B, the small excess heat was observed at 3 runs out of 5 runs. The excess heat appeared continuously from the beginning of the electrolysis. These concentration of B might be effective for the excess heat generation. Closed, flow calorimeter made of plastic used. Samples of Pd wire containing various amounts (127-1000 ppm wt) of B studied. No correlation could be found.

Applied Sci. 2, Vol = 6 | Supporting the Josephson Interpretation of Low Energy Nuclear Reactions and Stabilization of Nuclear Waste | theory | Brian Josephson appealed at the meeting of the Nobel Laureates July 2004 against the ignorance of physicist to the phenomenon of cold fusion. Though there are good reasons against many publications to this topic but not to all what was reported. It seems to be indicated to summarize the following serious, reproducible and confirmed observations on reactions of protons or deuterons incorporated in host metals such as palladium, nickel and other metals. We underline the confusing discovery by Cockroft and Oliphant with the anomalously low energy for nuclear reactions which was hundred times lower than in the usual cases when smashing nuclei against their Coulomb potential. A similar unexpected result was that of Otto Hahn??-the chemist!-discovery of fission that had changed the world. A significant result for cold fusion was seen in gaseous atmosphere or discharges between palladium targets, rather significant and fully reproducible, e.g. from the 'life after death' heat production of such high values per host atom that only nuclear reactions can be involved. This supports the earlier evaluation of neutron generation in fully reversible experiments with gas discharges hinting that a reasonable screening effect-preferably in the swimming electron layer-may lead to reactions at nuclear distances d of picometers with reaction probability times U of about megaseconds similar to the K-shell capture radioactivity. Further electrolytic experiments led to Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) where the involvement of pollution could be excluded from the generation of very seldom rare earth elements. A basically new theory for DD cross sections is used to confirm the picometer-megasecond reactions of cold fusion. Other theoretical aspects are given from measured heavy element distributions similar to the standard abundance distribution, SAD, in the Universe with consequences on endothermic heavy nuclei generation, magic numbers and to quarkgluon plasmas. One application may be the elimination of long lived nuclear waste by transmutation into stable nuclei. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/OsmanFsupporting.pdf | ||||||

There is an energy offset of about 100 meV in the calculation as compared to experiment. We developed an empirical correction to the theoretical energies which allowed us to fit the experimental results for excess enthalpy and excess entropy with some success. We also explored a new model that posits a weak binding between absorbed hydrogen atoms in PdH, and is able to provide a better fit to the experimental results. The model provides a simple physical explanation of observed phase diagram, and also of the observed dependence of the thermodynamic variables (excess enthalpy and excess entropy) on loading. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedl.pdf#page=159 | ||||||

Detectors placed within or above the electrolyte display statistically greater numbers of nuclear pits than do detectors used as controls. Placing the cathodes in contact with Mylar-covered detectors is the basis for a technique that reproducibly generates evidence for a nuclear reaction during electrolysis. Nuclear pits are produced in plastic detectors exposed to the oxygen evolved at the anode, as well as to the hydrogen evolved at the cathode. Nuclear damage trails are found that are initiated within the 0.83mm thickness of the plastic detectors. These phenomena clearly show that a nuclear reaction of as yet unknown nature can be generated during electrolysis. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensede.pdf#page=117 | ||||||

A. | 2008 | Reproducible Evidence For The Generation Of A Nuclear Reaction During Electrolysis | ICCF-14 International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science | Washington, DC | Reproducible Evidence For The Generation Of A Nuclear Reaction During Electrolysis | Sonofusion | Past work in this laboratory has shown that nuclear particles generated during electrolysis can be registered by CR39 plastic detectors held within the electrolyte solution, suspended in the vapor above the solution, or placed just below the metal cathode that serves as the bottom of the electrolyte compartment of the electrolysis cell. However, not every electrolysis experiment produced nuclear particles so that total reproducibility was not achieved. Therefore another experimental technique has been developed which has shown the generation of nuclear particles in each of twenty five consecutive electrolysis experiments using heavy or light water solutions of lithium salts. The damage trails caused by the nuclear particles are made visible by etching in hot concentrated caustic solution, and the electrolysis experiments are accompanied by suitable blank, or control, experiments. The damage trails begin either at the surface of the CR39 chip that faces toward the electrolyte, at the opposite surface, or totally within the 0.83 mm thickness of the plastic detectors. It is demonstrated that the nuclear damage trails could not have been caused by ordinary radionuclides contaminating anything involved in the experimental procedure. The described phenomena pose a formidable challenge to nuclear theory. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/OrianiRAreproducib.pdf | |||||

The abstract begins: We show that energetic charged particles are produced during electrolysis of a D2O solution of Li2SO4 in a cell with a platinum anode and a palladium cathode. CR-39 plastic detectors, designed for recording alpha particles from radon decay, were immersed in the electrolyte during electrolysis. They recorded significantly larger numbers of energetic particle tracks than were recorded by control detectors not subject to electrolysis. Statistical analysis shows only a 3 * 10^-6 probability that the electrolysis tracks and the control tracks could have arisen from a common population. We conclude that there is a causal relationship between electrolysis and the production of energetic charged particles.

High resolution mass spectroscopy of the resulting gas at room temperature revealed 23 masses between 222 and 351 AMU that cannot be ascribed to known compounds.

Therefore, a Seebeck calorimeter operating at 400? was constructed to attempt to verify these claims.

Many kinds of palladium rod are prepared and their loading ratios are determined during our standard electrolysis procedure. Some palladium cathodes are provided with additional treatments to change surface conditions. As the results, it is found that the deuterium loading ratio is very sensitive to palladium surface conditions. For example, when a palladium sample of which surface is modified by aqua regia, the loading ratio as high as D/Pd ~ 0.95 is obtained at 200 mA/cm^2 of electrolytic currents, which can hardly be achieved with an ordinary palladium cathode rod. 10 min Aqua Regia followed by 1000??? -24 h anneal was found to produce best results. Concludes that surface properties more important than bulk. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSproceedinga.pdf#page=224 | ||

The cell and materials were chosen so as to minimise initial Fe contamination. Days-long electrolyses at about 0.1 A/cm^2 were run, checking for excess heat. Up to 22% excess was found. Afterwards, the Au cathodes were examined under AES (Auger emmission), electron probe and SIMS, and some small blips that could be Fe were seen. A number of other elements were also found. The authors however discount contamination as the source of Fe; they checked for this and there was none at the levels found. Also, isotopic ratio arguments indicated transmutation origins.

Electrolysis is performed for 7 days with a constant current intensity of 1 A. The electrolytes used are Na2SO4, K2SO4, K2CO3, and KOH. After the electrolysis, the elements in the electrode near the surface are analyzed by Auger electron spectroscopy and electron probe microanalysis. In every case, a notable amount of iron atoms in the range of 1.0 x 10^16 to 1.8 x 10^17 atom/cm2 (true area) are detected together with the generation of a certain amount of excess energy evolution. The isotopic abundance of iron atoms, which are 6.5, 77.5, and 14.5% for 54Fe, 56Fe, and 57Fe, respectively, and are obviously different from the natural isotopic abundance, are measured at the top surface of a gold electrode by secondary ion mass spectrometry.

Ca values resulted from subtracting two large numbers. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=167 | ||

Three pairs of electrolysis runs have been performed on the coincidental experiment systems, resulting clear time correlations between the excess heat generation and the excess neutron emissions. The reproducibility of the anomalous phenomena occurred in the present electrolysis could be accomplished completely in the series of experiments by a pretreatments of the Pd electrodes and the special purity control of the electrolyte used. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthina.pdf#page=47 | |||

Two background (control) runs and one foreground run with the Pd cathode of high electric resistance and high hardness gave no nuclear effects, while one foreground run with low electric resistance and low hardness gave appreciable excess neutron emission and the excess heat generation.

As a result of the experiments, helium-3 (4.75 MeV) and triton(4.75 MeV) from 3D-fusion proposed by new class of fusion theory in solid[I-3] were repeatedly observed. We identified the two unique charged particles as products of the reaction channel of 3D -> t + 3He + 9.5 MeV by the combinational analyses of one-dimensional and two-dimensional data. Experimentally obtained 3D fusion rate was in the order of 10^3 f/s that was surprisingly large value and was enhanced about 10^26 times, compared with the traditional theory of D-D reaction process. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/ENECOtheseventh.pdf#page=274 | ||

Some additional techniques were introduced in the implantation experiments by considering the effects of temperature change, pulsed-current stimulation and molecular ion beam. Energetic charged particles from the Ti and Pd foils implanted with lOO-2S0keV deuteron beams were measured with Si-SSDs. In some of the experiments, unusual counts were observed in the energy region higher than the proton peClk of the well-known D-D reaction, and they might be related to the new class of fusion reactions with large Q-values. However statistics of the counts were too poor to identify the types of their original reactions. More detailed and longterm measurements are necessary for the explanation of the unusual counts in the high energy region. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=392 | ||

A set of potential, resistance ratio and increase of dilation . . . was recorded simultaneously after the establishment of an equilibrium of hydrogen with Pd lattice. The hydrogen electrode potential is converted to 'equivalent hydrogen pressure', which might signify gaseous pressure in a void or on a surface. The structural phase transition (alpha -> beta) occurred during the cathodic discharging of hydrogen and the characteristic values of this phase change are well consistent with those predicted from Pd-H diagram. Hydrogen infusion causes lattice expansion, which resulted in the dilation of Pd electrode. Repeated absorption and desorption cycle deteriorates the mechanical properties, where the hysteresis of RIRo vs. hydrogen pressure diagram was appeared depending on the mode of electrolysis(the extent of H/Pd ratio). | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=228 | ||

Pages 2 - 16 are from the U.S. DoE Office of Conservation and Renewable Energy (NREL), Hydrogen Program Plan--FY 1993--FY 1997, June 1992, Appendixes A and C. Page 17 shows a graph published by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in 2001. The graph shows that most energy is lost as 'rejected energy' (waste heat), especially in Electricity generation (70% waste) and Transportation (80% waste). Better technology would greatly reduce this waste. Most generators convert only 33% of the heat from burning coal or gas into electricity; advanced generators convert 40%. Most automobiles convert only 15% of the heat from gasoline into useful vehicle propulsion; hybrid and electric automobiles convert 30% or more. This graph is based on the DoE Energy Information Administration Annual Energy Review. This review is an excellent, comprehensive source of online information.

He also reported in the previous work that 4 ppm of calcium was detected in the electrolyte of potassium carbonate light water solution by flame photospectroscopy. The gamma ray measurement revealed the formation of 24Na during electrolysis in sodium carbonate solution. ICP mass spectra of an electrolyte of cesium sulfate solution showed several peaks of the various nuclear products in the region from 132 to 140 amu. In all electrolytes investigated, the distinct increments of tritium were measured by liquid scintillation spectroanalyzer. Simultaneously the excess heat was measured in the family open cell during electrolysis in these solutions of light or heavy water, which amounted to > 200% for the input power in potassium and cesium ion solutions. From these results we can conclude that the alkali intermetallic compounds formed as the intermediate of hydrogen evolution reaction cause many types of cold fusion with neutrons, protons, deuterium, tritium and alpha particles. Electrolysis of Cs2SO4 in H2O produced mass at 135(0.4), 136(0.3), 137(0.5), 138(4.7), 139(0.2), and 140(1.8).

The cell was called by a constant rate airstream and maintained at 20? during all the electrolysis. Typical results indicated that the excess heat production rate was proportional to the input power in the range of measurements (up to 2 W) and the excess heat observed was 3 to 4 times greater than the input power, after correction for the thermo-neutral potential. After the electrolysis, the calcium ion concentration in the electrolyte was measured by flame photo spectrometry and the increase of calcium concentration in the electrolytes due to the electrolysis was found to be 3.2 to 4.4 ppm. These amounts are comparable to the amounts of excess heat calculated within the same order of magnitude. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=161 | ||

Although much discussion was (and is still) devoted to whether this effect is connected with any known nuclear reactions, the latter being widely questioned, there is no doubt that the general interest in the problem was provoked by the claim of the possibility of producing excess energy, i.e., energy surmounting the energy breakeven value. Unlike the clearly negative indications so far in terms of known nuclear processes taking place, however, careful analysis reveals that the claims in the principal negative papers published so far with respect to the existence of excess energy are in disagreement with the raw experimental data whenever such is presented in those papers. This is very surprising indeed in view of the wide publicity these negative results have been given. An example of an improper analysis of their own experimental data by the authors is Ref. 1, which we have already discussed. Other examples of inappropriate method and improper interpretation of their own experimental data are Refs. 3 and 4. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NoninskiVCnotesontwo.pdf | ||||||

Allocation of mols of hydrogen atoms to palladium gave large H/Pd ratios higher than unity at 298 K under 100 kPa of hydrogen. As the palladium content increased, the proportion of the external palladium increased and the H/Pd value decreased to approach that for powdery palladium. The hyperstoichiometric occlusion of hydrogen can be attributed to palladium nanoparticles or clusters inside the pores of zeolite. Whereas the interstitial site per palladium atom was unity for powdery palladium, for the internal palladium species it seemed to be two or more. Before reaching the stoichiometric composition, PdH, the palladium species released substantial heat on hydriding similarly to powdery palladium. After the hydrogen content exceeded the stoichiometry, the heat on hydriding was as low as 1 kJ/mol H2 | https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0925838801009215 https://doi.org/10.1016/S0925-8388(01)00921-5 | |||||

During the development of a method using effective microorganisms (EM) to reduce the soil-to-plant transfer of 137Cs on land contaminated with radioactive cesium, an unexpected effect of EM on the reduction of the 137Cs activity in soil samples was observed. Laboratory experiments were then conducted to evaluate the impact of EM and fermented organic fertilizer (EM Bokashi) on the 137Cs activity in soil samples to investigate this observation. The experimental results indicate an increase in the 137Cs decay rate of up to 4 times the usual decay rate corresponding to the half-life of 137Cs, which is 30.17 years. Our results suggest that EM accelerates the radioactive decay of 137Cs in soil. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzb.pdf#page=239 | ||||||

Power gains ranged from 1.06 to 1.68. The cell was operated at four different dc current levels plus one pulsed current run at 1 Hz, 10% duty cycle. The 28 liter cell used in these verification tests was on loan from a private corporation whose own tests with similar cells are documented to produce 50 W steady excess heat for a continuous period exceeding hundreds of days. The apparent excess heat can not be readily explained either in terms of nonlinearity of the cell's thermal conductance at a low temperature differential or by thermoelectric heat pumping. However, the present data do admit efficient recombination of dissolved hydrogen-oxygen as an ordinary explanation. Calorimetry methods and heat balance calculations for the verification tests are described. Considering the large magnitude of benefit if this effect is found to be a genuine new energy source, a more thorough investigation of evolved heat in the nickel-hydrogen system in both electrolytic and gaseous loading cells remains warranted. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NiedraJMreplicatio.pdf | ||||||

H+ used as a precursor nuclear material can be implanted in solid-state carbon material. We must then consider all effects that can affect nuclear collision efficiency, including solid-state structure specificity, proton channeling and the reduction of the original proton energy with electronic interactions, before looking at the possible nuclear reactions themselves. We then have to consider the different effects and types of atomic rearrangement favoring either sp2 or sp3 sites or which influence the carbon material structure. For this purpose, we review first a recently developed theoretical approach, which might explain important aspects of this phenomenon with still high confidence up to now. These aspects include quantum electronic activation especially with H2 recombination energy release, which is different from usual chemical and metallurgical thermal atomic rearrangement with which an optimized ta-C sp3 carbon structure can be controlled. It should also be considered that carbon structure determination methodology ? including the recently revised Raman theory ? provide more correct and accurate results. To be falsified a study of this type of proton?arbon nuclear reactor must also take into account effects which modify the carbon nucleus structure in favor of nuclear fusion. It is suggested that anharmonic synchronic Phonon-nulcear resonance may be a contributing factor. However, present failures and the limits of abstract Quantum Mechanical formalism bring little clarification on this last point, which we suggest is owing to insufficient physical description of particle wave character. In order to improve these aspects of the theory, we suggest revisiting aether theory which with further investigation and development of 3D fluid mechanics is expected to account for all QM acquired, and to be able to provide clearer physical insight into the subatomic particle wave aspects and corresponding nuclear reaction mechanism. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedv.pdf#page=96 | ||||||

Such clusters combine extremely high H atomic density, large values of screening potential, and as a result, a low LENR ignition energy in eV region. Besides, high average H density can be achieved due to the superabundant vacancy state (SAV) formation. These conclusions are made based on the density functional theory (DFT) modeling of these clusters, estimations of the nuclear reaction rates using experimental data for the nuclear reaction cross sections and a wide set of experimental studies of charging and recharging of various Ni samples with H and D atoms. The results were analyzed using temperature programmed desorption. The experiments confirmed extremely high loading of Ni samples with H isotopes. We discuss the problem of suitable ignition mechanisms and sustainability conditions. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzb.pdf#page=502 | ||||||

We also employed a continuous wave He-Ne laser to irradiate the samples inside the chamber during the treatment, in order to increase the gas absorption. Using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an electron probe micro-analyzer (EDX), we observed structures like spots on the surface of the treated samples. Inside the spots, elements other than Pd were found. Based on these results, we determined that gas loading is an effective way to transmute elements, and the laser action has been a very effective way to increase morphological changes in the treated samples. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedd.pdf#page=7 | ||||||

Condensed Matter Nucl. Sci., Vol = 24 | Observation of Anomalous Production of Si and Fe in an Arc Furnace Driven Ferro Silicon Smelting Plant at levels of Tons per day | Carbon Arc, Energy balance, Fe??i alloy, Transmutation | In the period 1978?2002, The Silcal Metallurgic Ltd., a Coimbatore (India) based company, was engaged in the production of ferro silicon alloy deploying a 12 MVA ?ubmerged Carbon Arc? powered smelter. During a 11-week long non-stop round the clock operation of the plant in 1995, daily feed of raw materials was: Quartz (33.4 ton), charcoal (with fixed carbon content of 13.2 ton) and scrap steel (5.1 ton) while the daily output production of Fe??i alloy (73.5% Si) was 24.75 ton. From the total weights of Si and Fe in the input feed and assuming 100% recovery of the metals, the daily output alloy production could at best have been only 20.5 ton. However to our surprise throughout the 11-week period the total daily Fe??i alloy (with 73.5% Si) output was consistently 24.75 ton, corresponding to a daily ?nomalous? excess metal production of 4.25 ton of Fe??i alloy. The only source of Si entering the smelter furnace was the quartz raw material and that of Fe was the scrap steel (except for minor additional amounts of Fe originating from the steel casing of the consumable S?erberg carbon electrodes). Very careful vigil of the weights of daily input feed of raw materials and output alloy drained out as also the electrical energy consumption was maintained. It was evident that roughly 20% more metal than could be accounted for from the input feed was being produced and consequently we have been obliged to come to the conclusion that anomalous quantities of Si (2.8 ton/day) and Fe (1.45 ton/day) were being synthesized during the smelting process. Discussions with researchers involved in the Cold Fusion/LENR field have suggested that a likely explanation for the anomalous metal production could be the occurrence of transmutation reactions between nuclei of C and the O stripped from the SiO2 during the chemical reduction process. It is speculated that the intense varying magnetic fields generated by the kilo-amp levels of alternating current (AC) driving the arcing between the three gigantic carbon electrodes and the carbonic hearth of the furnace, in the 2000?C temperature environment, could have somehow catalyzed transmutation reactions to occur, very similar to the transmutations reported in laboratory scale ?arbon-Arc experiments? first revealed by George Oshawa in 1964. But the more puzzling aspect of our observations is that there was no evidence of release of the expected massive amounts of nuclear energy that should have accompanied the postulated transmutation reactions based on the atomic masses of the nuclei involved. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=256 | ||||||

This may explain the results of cold fusion experiments that have been reported by other authors for various systems. We examine the anti-Zeno effect as a model of a barrier of a special shape, which is similar to the form of barriers to nuclear fusion in a solid, and moreover, has an analytic solution. We have deduced formulas that demonstrate conditions that increase the barrier permeability. Numerical estimates of the particle flows through the barrier are carried out for the conditions of cold fusion experiments. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedzd.pdf#page=108 | ||||||

Since then we have tried to reproduce the excess heat data by employing a different kind of calorimetry, mass flow calorimetry, at better cathode loadings because the previous data was restricted to the cathode loading lower than 0.86. The issue of electrolytic loading of deuterium into a Pd cathode was investigated in terms of the bulk and surface properties of the cathode, and it was concluded that the surface and the bulk properties plays an essential role respectively for a given bulk and a surface properties [2]. We have employed three major approaches to improve the cathode loading based on these studies: (1 )pretreatment of the Pd samples by either annealing at high temperature or by chemical etching in aqua regia, (2)application of the partial deload-reload cycles, (3)alloying with rhodium. We report a summary of the 26 excess heat measurements by mass flow calorimetry under the improved cathode loadings. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NEDOthesixthin.pdf#page=138 | ||

The amount of hydrogen absorbed under cathodic polarization was determined by integrating the ionization current of hydrogen when Pd electrode was polarized anodically. After THU addition in the acidic and alkaline solution H/Pd increased by about 8% and 5%, respectively. Further we tried absorption of deuterium into Pd foil and found a similar effect of THU to increase D/Pd only in the acidic solution. Addition of thiourea improved loading when used in both acid and basic solution. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=310 | ||

Very clear differences between the depth profiles of Li and D in the Pd electrode surfaces with the neutron emissions and without it. The depth profiles were also found to depend on the mode of the electric current employed. Based on the above findings, it is discussed that the anomalous deuterium accumulation in the surface region of the Pd with the neutron emission and attributed to the formation of Pd-Li layer in the surface region and to the low/high pulsed mode electrolysis with heavy water with LiOD. The depth profile of Li in Pd was measured using SIMS. Samples producing and not producing neutrons were examined. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdintera.pdf#page=318 | ||

Among 6 runs of the electrolysis of VH pulse mode operations, 3 of them gave appreciable neutron emission. The neutron energy spectra were found to have the two compornents (2.45 MeV peak and a broad band in higher energy region). The intensity of the 2.45 MeV neutron is smaller than that of the higher energy. Electrolytic charging of Pd (D/Pd 0.6-0.8) produced neutrons. High-Low currents used. Energy peaks were seen at 2.45 MeV and 3-7 MeV. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/IkegamiHthirdinter.pdf#page=179 | ||

Condensed Matter Nucl. Sci., Vol = 24 | Fundamental Experimental Tests toward Future Cold Fusion Engine Based on Point-compression due to Supermulti-jets Colliding with Pulse (Fusine) | Experiment, Pulse, Reactor, Simulation, Supermulti-jets colliding, Theory | Our previous reports based on theoretical considerations and supercomputer simulation showed the possibility that super multi-air jets of gases such as air or deuterium colliding with pulse (K. Naitoh, patent: 2012-519298 (2010)) lead to self-compression over 60 MPa and 2000 K at single point around the reacted center, at maximum. This may bring about a more stable occurrence of cold fusion. This approach due to supermulti-jets will also cause an insulation effect because of encasing, which will result in less heat loss from the reactor walls. Based on this, we developed three types of prototype engine reactors using the supermulti-jets colliding with pulse. In the present report, we show some fundamental experimental data for one of the three prototype engine reactors, derived now, before we plan to begin testing for cold fusion. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedw.pdf#page=248 | ||||||

Sci., Vol = 26 | Expectations of LENR Theories | Empirical observations, Heat??e correlation, LENR, Low energy nuclear reactions, Theory | The mechanisms that cause Lattice Enabled (or Low Energy) Nuclear Reactions (LENR) are still not understood, even though much is known empirically about LENR. We provide list of 24 observations from almost three decades of LENR experiments. These observations require theoretical explanations. This paper deals with two aspects of the many theories about the mechanisms. The first is the theories themselves, i.e., their characteristics and results. The few dozen available theories on LENR mechanisms are diverse and complex. Only a lengthy paper could properly summarize their essence, including all assumptions and implications. Such a thorough review of extant LENR theories would be challenging to write. Here, we merely indicate reviews and other sources of information on LENR theories. The second focus of this paper is the status of development of LENR theories, specifically, the completeness of their elaboration. It is possible to detail what is expected of LENR theorists by experimentalists, teachers, students, developers and other interested personnel. We provide and discuss ten questions for LENR theoreticians about the description (characteristics) and status (development) of their ideas. The nearly three decades of theoretical work on LENR has resulted in remarkably few well-developed theories. None of them has yet been adequately tested and widely accepted. There remains a great opportunity for some theoretician to provide the basic understanding of LENR. That understanding would enable or speed the commercialization of this new, clean, promising and much needed energy source. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedy.pdf#page=20 | ||||||

The report demonstrates that there is much reputable evidence in available technical records, which shows LENR devices are capable of producing energy. It has been demonstrated experimentally and often that chemical energies can produce nuclear reactions. Significant energy gains are possible. The 'excess heat' found by Fleischmann and Pons has attractive features. They include low levels of prompt and residual radiation, and no production of green house gases. Reaction by-products, such as tritium or helium, are also generated. They can only result from nuclear reactions. Low Energy Nuclear Reactions have great practical potential. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NagelDJevidenceof.pdf | |||||

Sci., Vol = 19 | 219 High Energy Density and Power Density Events in Lattice-enabled Nuclear Reaction Experiments and Generators | Craters, Explosions, High-power, LENR, Meltdowns | The rapid release of energy from Lattice Enabled (or Low Energy) Nuclear Reactions is of interest for three reasons. First, it constrains and challenges theories about the mechanism(s) active in producing LENR. Next, it might heavily influence the design of heat and electrical generators based on LENR, since they have to be safe for use by a wide variety of people. Finally, there has long been interest in whether or not LENR could be used to augment existing weapons or produce to entirely new weapons. This paper first reviews reports in the literature of meltdowns or explosions that might have been caused by LENR. Then, each of the three areas cited above is examined. It is clear that reported high energy or high power events will heavily impact theories about LENR and the development of safe products. It is unclear now if LENR will be weaponized in any form. Control of the initiation of explosive LENR events is obviously necessary for that possibility. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedr.pdf#page=227 | ||||||

The existence of compact objects remains unproven. But, if such objects exist and are formed during what are now called LENR experiments, they might release substantial energy without any nuclear reactions. Because of the small size of hypothetical compact objects, it is thought that the protons or deuterons at their centers might subsequently participate in nuclear reactions, producing more energy, transmutation products or energetic quanta. Such a two-step sequence could explain the relatively low production rates of nuclear reaction products, and also difficulties in correlating excess heat with the amounts of such products. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondensedn.pdf#page=286 | ||||||

They are generally 1–100 µm in size. The craters vary widely in shape and areal distribution. Two methods were used to determine the energies needed to produce such craters. The resulting energies range from nJ to mJ, depending on the crater size. If craters are caused by LENR, then many nearly simultaneous MeV-level energy releases would have to occur in a very small volume. There are numerous open basic questions regarding the formation and characteristics of craters in LENR cathodes.

LENR could be the basis for portable nuclear power sources, maybe even batteries. The production of clean drinking water by desalination or by purification of polluted river waters is one of the many, and perhaps the most attractive potential applications of LENR. The world health implications of clean water would be momentous.

J. | 2007 | Powers, Materials and Radiations from Low Energy Nuclear Reactions on Surfaces | The 13th International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science | Sochi, Russia | Powers, Materials and Radiations from Low Energy Nuclear Reactions on Surfaces | materials, electrode surface morphology | Nuclear reactions that occur at low kinetic energies produce thermal energy at some rate (powers), nuclear reaction products (materials) and, in some cases, energetic photons or particles (radiations). Experimental evidence indicates that low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) occur on or very near to the surfaces of solid lattices. The rates of such reactions depend on the total area of the lattices in an LENR experiment, the fraction of that area which is active and the number of reactions per area per second. The powers further depend on the energy per reaction. The production rates of materials are related to the masses of the reaction products. And, the fluxes of radiations depend on the fraction of the reactions that produce energetic quanta. These factors are examined in this paper. A simple, but useful graphical method to relate surface areas to output nuclear powers is presented. It is used to make the first estimate of the active fraction of a surface in LENR experiments. Optimization of power outputs from LENR experiments is discussed in relation to the various factors cited above and to past work. The several intersections between LENR and both nano-science and nanotechnology are examined. A new engineering discipline will be required to turn the current science of LENR into practical sources of energy, materials and maybe radiations. | http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/NagelDJpowersmate.pdf | |||||
