    Japan is moving further to the right politically, under the slogan 'Strong Japan'. Externally they feel threatened by N.Korea and China. The military are getting bigger budgets. I think those are the key factors.

    That may be the obvious reason indeed.


    But to introduce some (science) fiction:
    We know that the NEDO program at several Japanese universities has made relevant progress in producing excess energy in their LENR program. So far they stated that they do not know the real cause and physics of these results.

    But suppose in the past year they made huge progress in understanding the real mechanism (and physics).

    Keeping these understandings secret could be an important (national) strategy.

    FYI the US already has something similar in place:

    The Invention Secrecy Act: The USPTO as a Gatekeeper of National Security
    The United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) has the privilege of reviewing hundreds of thousands of inventions each year before the public learns…
    www.repository.law.indiana.edu


    Similar laws are probably valid for other countries.


    The timing of Japan is interesting. Would there be a specific urge?

    Hush money: Japan to pay companies to keep sensitive patents secret
    Equipment for core infrastructure also screened under economic security law

    Quote
    TOKYO -- The Japanese government will introduce legislation to keep patents with potential military applications secret, compensating companies and applicants for forgone licensing income, Nikkei has learned.

    Could also apply for future LENR based patents. Not particularly good.

    The NFE equipment formed a setup similar to that of the university of Reykjavik, Iceland and will probably be returned to the university of Gothenburg or their spin-off company (GU Ventures AB) which was a major shareholder of NFE.

    See also this LF thread.

    It would make sense that research is continued at the university of Gothenburg and keep a cooperation with the university of Reykjavik (Sveinn Olafsson). Budget for 2022 may depend on the 2021 findings of Sveinn.

    Worth keeping an eye on.

    The paper shows that Jürg and Russ now have a very powerful tool set in their hands.

    Having fine tuned the output of a NaI(Tl) based GRS equipment gives them a powerful tool to calibrate the SO(4) theory and optimize real implementations. This will give them the tools to optimise experiments like no one other.


    Hopefully this gets tracktion and other players in the field will have a close look what is shown here.

    The English translation:


    Andrea Rossi owes nothing to anyone!

    On December 9, 2021, our spacecraft called "Planet Earth", not forgetting to rotate on its axis, has been revolving around our star named the Sun for several billion years. And this star, in its turn, continues to warm and illuminate us all this time. So, on December 9, 2021, at 15-00 CET, two technical devices were demonstrated that work on new physical principles, which are not at all similar to the simple combustion of fossil fuel, or to the fission energy of heavy nuclei, or to thermonuclear fusion at temperatures much ( thousands of times) more than fusion reactions on the Sun take place. The person who, within 15 minutes, demonstrated the presence and operation of these two devices, everyone calls the Italian inventor Andrea Rossi.

    One of these devices is called the Ecat SKLep: Clean, compact, fossil fuel-free electricity 24/7, continuously generating 100 watts of electricity without consuming fuel.

    Other - Ecat SKLed: Simply the most energy efficient lamp ever made. Consumes less than 10 percent than any other lamp in the world. All this and a lot of other technical information is presented on the Leonardo Corporation website https://ecat.com/.

    Andrea Rossi promised to demonstrate on December 9th - he did. Anyone can familiarize themselves in detail with this event and the device test reports at the University of Bologna that are attached to this demo. Everyone who wants to can see it with their own eyes, and does not say later that he did not see it. And everyone can order these devices on the website.

    You just need to understand that this demonstration is an advertisement for working devices for sale, and not courses: "Take it and do it yourself." This is the start of a new business in the global energy sector. This is the time of capitalism in which we live. And in any person, in the first place is the desire to do well first for himself, and only then for the whole world.

    Andrea Rossi, in my opinion, does not want to play the game called the Nobel Prize in Physics. And this position of his just infuriates absolutely all physicists involved in unrealizable thermonuclear fusion. They came up with a lot of "new" in science more than 30 years ago in order to save billions in funding for thermonuclear fusion.

    But, as they said at the UPI Physicotechnical Institute in our old student years: A clever man needs to think a little, but a fool must definitely try!

    And also understand and remember: Andrea Rossi owes nothing to anyone! Sergey Tsvetkov

    Nothing new, but still interesting to watch:

    Showing a 2 liter vessel setup that is suggested to produce 30 KW of thermal energy.

    (Keep in mind that Brillouin never showed verified measurements having COP > 4).

    Also showing an example electrolysis process in a transparent container giving off some sparks.

    Provisional application No.62/937,716, filed on Nov. 19,2019, preceding US20210151206A1 provides interesting insights how this patent application became what it is now.

    As often is the case with provisionals it is basically a collection of snapshots of various information sources.


    It shows e.g. that they have implemented real test setups and did related experiments.



    It also shows that quite a number of other people were involved in making the plans, their conversations and ideas.



    Attached the provisional patent application.

    Regarding the Google et. al. patent, look at the last event in the file a few months before the publication date:


    So if granted, the rights would now belong to the US government. Could be good, could be bad, but any comments should probably avoid political content, which is discouraged here.

    Hard to understand why that happened.

    There could be several reasons:

    - US Government wants to safeguard innovative energy technologies and regulate license of it.

    - They don't want companies like Google to control this kind of technologies (I am not sure US Government can enforce ownership of it though)

    - They want to control/safeguard further development of this specific technology.

    - They want to prohibit that foreign companies or countries get ownership of this technology.


    In either case(s), this is a very remarkable event.

    Might be good to monitor this kind of UA Gov. strategy regarding any new LENR related patent applications.
