Mizuno : Publication of kW/COP2 excess heat results

Quote from Longview

Yes, in near vacuum with both collisional entities essentially free, only at very high energies is coulombic repulsion overcome. By dimensional restraints these activation energies can by greatly lowered. The question may be how can the restraints be simultaneously and oppositely applied to both fusile entities down to a femtometer scale w/o disrupting those restraints. Surface associated phenomena of several sorts may be a route to such restraints. Keeping in mind that the nano to picometer scale of electronic orbitals and atomic structure at say solid to gas or solid to liquid interfaces over sustained times might only contribute up to some limit at lattice or surface dissociation energies. Pulses offer the opportunity to convert lattice inertia into a virtual sub-picometer "vise" to enable fusion. Shielding by oppositely charged entities can greatly lower the collisional barrier, especially when the collisional matrix/interface is nearly static. There are many other categories of surface associated "focusing" phenomena which can also contribute. So besides phase interfaces, there are easily impressed field gradients, chemical and electrochemical discontinuities, as well as surface confined electromagnetic transmission phenomena such as the "skin effect" and surface plasmon resonance. All such have been reported or speculated to be associated with changes in effective mass of electrons-- and likely also, and perhaps not accidentally, with LENR / CANR / LANR / CF AHE reports.

The electrons are confined in dipole oscillation and they function to comfine heat in micro cavities so that the heat can be converted to magnetic flux lines. In order for entanglement between photons and electrons to occur, the electrons and the heat photons must stabilize at the same energy so that entanglement between them can occur.

Rare earth magnets produce spin because these types of magnets produce anisometric (unbalanced) magnetic field lines.

An electro magnet does not produce spin because it produces isometric (balanced) magnetic field lines.

In the Dennis Cravens golden balls, SmCo5 powder was used to drive the LENR reaction. This type of magnet produces magnetic vortex field lines.

A superfluid like in Holmlid's ultra-dense hydrogen will produce unbalanced magnetic field lines because it is a superconductor. The UDH will behave like a rare earth magnet in producing unbalanced magnetic field lines and thereby produce LENR effects.

The opticle cavities containing confined heat photons produce unbalnced magnetic field lines. These cavities will produce the LENR reaction.

The theta parameter inside the proton will increase when exposed to unbalance magnetic field lines. This parameter controls the color of the gluons inside the proton. When the color of the gluons change, the proton is converted into a kaon. This kaon will decompose in short order to produce energy and other subatomic particles. The axion is the quanta by which the theta parameter changes.

"In my experience, a replication of something like this will fail the first time, the second time, and for several months. That is normal. It is no reason to give up."

Not a valid explanation. In fact, not even a credible excuse. If that's true, why even try?

It is not an excuse. It is my experience. I have been doing things like this for 40 years, and in my experience they usually fail at first. You have to keep doing it again and again until you learn how to do it right.

"Why even try?" is the kind of question a person who has no imagination and no experience in R&D would ask. Obviously, you try because after months or years of effort, you sometimes succeed.

When you do creative work in an unexplored area, or some task that other people have not done, it is impossible to know ahead of time whether you will succeed. You cannot even tell whether success is possible. You never succeed except after failing at first. As Frederick Brooks put it in The Mythical Man Month you "plan to throw one away." "Where a new system concept or a new technology is used, one has to build a system to throw away, for even the best planning is not so omniscient as to get it right the first time." If that bothers you, don't do R&D! Stop right there. People with attitudes such as Mary Yugo's should never, ever, EVER try anything like this. Anyone who would ask "why even try?" will surely fail.

Nearly all jobs involve doing something that people have done millions of times before, with well-defined methods, textbooks and standards. Mary Yugo is a conformist with no imagination and no desire to read anything or learn anything new. She is strongly opposed to innovation, to trying new things, or taking risks. She is incapable of suspending judgement and she hates to makes mistakes so much that even when she makes an error by a factor of 1,800, she will not admit it. Such people often do excellent work in well-defined, conventional jobs, in established industries. IBM used to be run by people like that. They almost ran it off a cliff into bankruptcy in the 1980s.

And here I thought IH had millions and millions to work with, including some $50M just from Woodford.

That is a mystery to me. I do not understand why they fired the R&D staff, but the papers filed in the lawsuit docket said they did. I have no idea why.

Sure, But LENR is hardly unexplored or never done before. Quite the opposite. Thirty years and thousands of people.

Well not thousands of people, but you miss the point. It has not been done before by anyone at I.H. Or the MFMP for that matter. This particular experiment has not been done by anyone other than Mizuno, so it is an open question as to whether he actually did it, or whether it was a mistake.

The situation is somewhat analogous to a Japanese or Chinese person trying to build a steamship around 1850. In both countries, they managed to do this from textbooks. But they made many mistakes, because they had never seen a steamship up close, and they had no experience building them. It is a lot harder doing it the first time, especially without guidance or instruction.

After the Meiji era began, the Japanese government sent large numbers of young men to Europe and the U.S. to learn technology, law, medicine and other subjects. One of the first people they sent got a physics degree from Cornell U. The Iwakura mission of 1871 included 53 students, including 5 women, the youngest age 7. Four of them went on to have extraordinary lives, and they made important contributions.

Quote from maryyugo

Replicating in a new and suitable place, a "for sure" experiment that's been done many times at one location, should not be that difficult if directed by the SAME person with the SAME equipment.

Yes. If Mizuno had stayed for a few months, or if someone from I.H. had gone to Japan for a few months, it would have been more likely to succeed.

This is not a "for sure" experiment. There are no "for sure" experiments in cold fusion.

Holmlid's ultra-dense deuterium

There is some similarity between Holmlid and Mizuno's preparation techniques... and differences.

Is there a possibility that in the nickel nanocages Mizuno also formed some ultradense deuterium?

Being shorter than regular transition metal bonds and unbalanced, these microcavities that pit the surface of metal can be up to 10 times stronger than the bonds that connect a perfect crystalline lattice metal structure. In simple terms, the walls of a micro cavity on the surface of a metal is very strong.

When hydrogen atoms enter such a cavity, that atom becomes very energetic because such tight confinement produces extreme energy due to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

U_x U_p >₌ ħ/2

(ħ is the reduced Planck constant h / (2π)).

Certain pairs of physical properties of a particle, known as complementary variables: position x and momentum p, can be known only to a fixed degree.

Because the hydrogen atom enteres into a very confining space, its energy is driven to extremes by this quantum effect.

The metal bonds of the cavity absorb this energy of confinement and the atom's temperature eventually equilibrates with that of the lattice. As more hydrogen atoms enter the micro cavity, this new resident atom becomes even more energetic since it has even less space to occupy inside the cavity. This atom's energy will eventually be cooled by the lattice until its temperature eventually equilibrates with that of the lattice.

As more hydrogen atoms enter the cavity, the quantum effects pressure caused by the entrance of that new atom in its turn becomes so great that the pressure reaches a level sufficient to produce a crystal of ultra dense hydrogen.

The engineering takeaways from this quantum compression process:

There is an ideal size that a microcavity shoud be. That size should be just large enough to contain the finished UDH crystal and no bigger.

The LENR fuel preparation process that the sucessful LENR reactor builders undertake requires a long time for the production of ultra dense hydrogen to occur. If sufficient time for the long term absorption of hydrogen and associated quantum compression is not allowed, then the UDH will not reach the proper pressure for UDH formation to occur.

The hydrogen must be isotopically pure for UDH to form.

If lithium is used in conjunction with hydrogen, Ultra dense lithium hydride will form requiring just 1/4 of the quantum pressure. But both the lithium and hydrogen must be isotopically pure. Any isotope poisoning will kill the quantum compression process. That poisoned cavity will not from UDH from then on.

LENR poisons like nitrogen will kill UDH formation, but after UDH formation, poisoning is no longer a consideration.

The UDH will slowly exit the microcavities in which they were formed and activate the LENR reaction. The micrographs of the me356 fuel shows that UDH process and UDH falls from the metal micro cavity containment onto the carbon substrate to catalyze transmutation of carbon into metal.

Longview, Bocijn,

by "heavy electrons" what are you consider ? Really heavy as muons, or simply a cluster of electrons, or heavy because fast ?

Congratulations for your good Lenr abstract Longview, really close it seems to the reality.

But after cleaning up methodology in Japan caused the effect to disappear

That is incorrect. They made no deliberate changes to the methodology. They thought they were doing the same thing. As Mizuno pointed out, they made mistakes. That was inadvertent.

Making mistakes is not "cleaning up." In fact these mistakes contaminated the materials, which is the literal opposite of "cleaning up."

Quote from maryyugo

Similarly, if Mizuno thought there was not enough time or the equipment and the technicians were not good enough, the time to complain would have been BEFORE agreeing to do the test.

How could he have known this beforehand? Does he have a time machine?

It is difficult to judge, but the technicians probably were good enough. If they had continued, I suppose they would have succeeded. They are impressive people, in my opinion. Even impressive people sometimes make mistakes. That's no big deal. You learn from your mistake and try again.

Quote from maryyugo

As to Jed's above remarks, I was basing my assertions about what happened on Shane D's post quoted below. Did Shane D misquote?

You need to keep reading. The quotes from Mizuno show there was probably contamination.

The test in Florida was different from the one in Sapporo. I did not think it was an improvement. Also, I disagree with the statement that Mizuno was unable to see the same effect after the changes made in Sapporo.

Is it documented somewhere in credible form other than your hearsay version?

Go to LENR-CANR.org and use the Google search box for "Miles, stockroom." I do not recall the specific document title.

I have discussed this matter with Miles. I have documents from the management to Miles assigning him to the stockroom, and his responses. That is not "hearsay." It is called "reporting" from "original source documents signed by government officials."
