22passi report a DTRA report of 2007

[With regard to what Alain and Longview were just discussing here on LENR Forum. This
paragraph is directly from the Executive Summary of the DTRA 2007 Report declassified
in 2011 and now linked here.]

"The potential energy that can be tapped from the nucleus(> 106 eV/atom) is vastly
greater than the energy available from the electronic states of an atom(< 1 eV/atom).
The conversion of mass into energy, via fission and fusion reactions, is the basis for the
only existing "high-energy" weapons, but further refinements in the design of these
weapons, to make them more relevant to the post-Cold War security environment, are
certainly possible. Another possible way to extract energy from the nucleus is to exploit
the energy stored in metastable isomeric states. Also, despite the negative publicity about
"Cold Fusion," the nuclear community continues to watch research in the area of low
energy nuclear reactions with guarded optimism for possible future commercial and
military applications. Anti-matter annihilation reactions involve the complete conversion
of mass to energy with energy densities three orders of magnitude higher than nuclear
fission and fusion. The prospect of compactly storing positrons in the form of chargeneutral
positronium holds promise for viable military applications of anti-matter."

Longview comments:

I would think antimatter would be a lot easier to store as charged particles. Charge neutral
makes it much harder contain, in my opinion. That is for neutral, magnetic and/or electrostatic confinement
would require much higher strength fields.

[But let's see if the "nuclear isomers' section has a long lived
and triggerably convertible nuclear isomer that gains mass on anti particle decay... antigravity,
time reversal, many million fold energy densities over hydrogen and oxygen.... can't wait!]

Speaking of "orders of magnitude", The DTRA report shows that US government interests and awareness
are higher by orders of magnitude over the vast majority of the corporately generated plebeian
media circus in the USA.

As an exception to that "circus" we would have to credit CBS "60 Minutes" for example.
