First, I'd like to provide a short summary of what I'm trying to convey. I believe the key to producing ultra high rate enhancement in plasma based cold fusion and LENR systems is to operate in the zone of Negative Differential Resistance with an optimum fuel mixture. To achieve an even more efficient state of operation, the circuit should be tuned so the discharge can remain in the negative resistance zone and resonant oscillations can travel through the plasma. In this case, the system becomes nearly self sustaining and the input power can be reduced to almost nothing.

Now, I'd like to share some posts I've found online from individuals who were members of Brilliant Light Power's former Yahoo group that was recently removed.

Here is another.

Here is another.

And from a different user on the same forum.

Another important detail.

So these posts describe very well how the negative resistance of the Suncell maximizes the rate of hydrino formation. I am confident this is the same mechanism at work in the E-Cat SK.

However, Randell Mills currently dismisses any connection between his technology and cold fusion or LENR. However, in his original patents, he gave a theory as to how hydrinos could more easily undergo nuclear reactions with other atoms. I'd like to state that I am NOT convinced that a hydrino is simply a shrunken hydrogen atom. Instead, I think it is likely a process takes place that modifies the hydrogen atom in some way that we don't understand. But regardless how this happens, the modified hydrogen atom is more likely to undergo nuclear reactions with other atoms. I expect that if you then apply appropriate stimulation, nuclear reactions can then take place. It's my guess that this stimulation can be the relatively high frequency ion acoustic oscillations produced by the space charge construct with a double layer on the surface that's constantly absorbing and emitting ions. These oscillations are visible on Andrea Rossi's oscilloscope. This means if you can tune your circuit well enough a portion of the heat produced by the LENR reactions will be absorbed by the plasmoid, converted into electrical current, and fed back into the circuit. When this happens, the device is in a virtual self sustain mode with extremely high COP.

There's probably a lot more about these systems that we don't understand. However, I think the basic concept is simple, and this is a direct path towards high powered LENR systems. Although electrolytic and powder based systems will all have their niches, I think that these plasma based devices are superior. They offer the ability to be turned on and off, to produce extremely high power density, to be extremely portable, to reach extremely high temperatures, etc.

I would like for a serious discussion of the negative resistance regime to begin in this thread.

A good start but what other good things can we do?

The compression of hydrogen in metals is how ultra dense hydrogen is formed. Lattice confinement can compress hydrogen to high levels, high enough to form the ultra dense state, this is the primary step in the LENR process.

I don't beleive that the SK is a nuclear reactor anymore. It is getting its excess energy from the vacuum. Prove me wrong...

He's reporting Rossi's claimed activities to the Florida regulatory authorities because those activities, if remotely like what is claimed, are wildly illegal and unsafe. In addition, this person is taking to task with university authorities, one or more professors who apparently "teach" undergraduates what Rossi claims as fact.

Maybe action like this will motivate the users of the SK reactor to remain dark.

Just like in the SAFIRE plasma and the BrLP SunCell. it appears that the plasma is self containing,

Although I am (was) a mere microbiologist, my bullcrap detector is active in other fields.

Lots of people are ignoring the facts that a) Rossi, in his first equation is calculating COLOUR TEMPERATURE, and b) that colour temperature is in no way correlated to actual temperature unless one is dealing with a perfect black body OR one knows the emissivity of the source.

Empirically, one can test this by putting the tip of one's pinkie on a lit blue LED. The Colour Temperature of that LED treated mathematically as a black body, will be in the range of mebbe 6,000 + deg K. Your pinkie, however, whilst it may detect warmth, even heat, will not be incinerated - as it would be if you were foolish enough to place it on similarly-sized mass of iron at the same colour temperature.

Try it and see!

Oh, and I see that there's a lot of rubbish about thermalising UV light over at The Other Place. Talk about post hoc rationalisation!

Both Rossi and R. Mills have the same challenge in converting XUV into usable energy. Mills is struggling with it big time.

Nigel Appleton wrote:

Amongst the many other things I'm dubious about, one is that I can't help wondering if a 20% saving on heating bills is going to be sufficiently attractive to the discerning customer. Even assuming minimal disruption and cost in installing the SKBeast, I can easily imagine a fair proportion of potential customers, once they look closely at their existing arrangements, find that it is relatively simple to save close to that by conventional means (more efficient boilers, better insulation, etc). And all without risking installing a mystery magic machine operating on unknown principles with no firm data or user recommendations to back up the decision.

The saving rate is up to 50% now/

Director wrote:

Here is my opinion why his presentation was so horrible.

I think that the technology is likely relatively simple.

True. Load some LENR fuel in a container: heat the fuel until it is vaporized, run a square wave RF signal through the electrodes into the fuel vapor and the reaction begins.

If Rossi did a spectrum of the plasma, he had to use a spectrometer that uses a grate since the plasma produces such high energy XUV light. That means that during development, Rossi put the plasma is a big containment box like R. Mills does. That also means that the plasma is self containing and very stable. Rossi said that the plasma has a area of 300 cm^2. That is a 4 inch diameter sphere. In the SK reactor, Rossi put the plasma in a transparent box just big enough to hold the 4 inch plasma ball.

mmckubre wrote:

PS thanks to the folks who put together sequenced videos of the plasma spectrum. Very illuminating. A black body this is not.

That spectrum may not be representative of the spectrum produced by the plasma. Rossi posted in his blog that the spectrum of the plasma falls between 100 and 200 nm. It also reportedly includes colors down the entire lower end of the color scale: that is why the plasma looks white. Most likely at a minimum, the spectrum from the demo was cutoff in both the high and low end and might have been modified by the enclosure material. It is most likely that the spectrum is not a black body spectrum. It looks like what R. Mills produces in the SunCell.

The way I imagine it is that all the tiny EVOs from all the Super Abundant Vacancies and cracks and pits in a powder based system are gathered up and placed in the SK. The plasma ball in the SK is like the total of all the EVOs in a powder based system combined into a large EVO.

This is how a polariton condensate is formed. Learn about this.

Could you stop the nonsence? Where does BLP claim that their systems have anything to do with nuclear reactions. Where is any reference to this assertion?

Director wrote:

BLP needs to be open about the fact that their systems may also produce nuclear reactions. I think that if they would build a suncell like device using lithium, hydrogen, argon, and traces of nano-particles from their electrodes they could produce massive excess heat without the need for a continual supply of hydrogen.

In a system that uses nuclear reactions, these reactions produce nuclear level radiation and neutrons. The heat is produced by the termalization of those gamma rays and those MeV level neutrons. The BrLP system produces high energy light only. This system is NOT a nuclear system. The energy so produced comes from non nuclear sources.

From Dr. Mills lecture at Fresno State.

Start listening at 45:20

"We improved the process some and right now at our lab anybody wants to come check with me, you can come in and check this out. But Right now it's making twenty million watts peak power from something that's seven millionths of a liter in scale. It is almost all silver and we've put in it the very small one weight percent of the catalyst hydrogen source and makes that kind of power. There's nothing on this planet even come remotely close to that like within a factor of about a million. Man it is incredible, incredible power that's coming out as light. High energy light. That's the spectrum right there."

Did Randell Mills basically reveal without attempting to do so that the new BLP process produces nuclear levels of power output?

Remember, according to his theory, the hydrino reaction can only produce around 200eV. If there is no chemical fuel that can come close to the power output by a factor of about a million, that makes it seem like the reactions in the Suncell are producing around 1MeV each or at least several hundred KeV.

This makes me think the QX/SK and Suncell must both be using similar principles.

I really wish that BLP would just admit that they are producing reactions beyond what is possible with the hydrino theory.

So let's look what is similar in both.

1) Most likely they are both using argon.

2) They are both pulsing through the negative resistance zone and creating a plasma ball.

3) This plasma ball will have a double layer.

4) EVOs and ball lightning with such a double layer induces nuclear reactions.

The main difference is that BLP uses liquid metal electrodes and Rossi uses solid electrodes.

Also, Rossi is using lithium which has proven to be both a BLP catalyst and very susceptible to nuclear reactions.

It would be beneficial to your understanding of these optical examples of high powered LENR to research the nature of negative photons, negative frequency of virtual particles and analog optical event horizons.

Dear Andrea,

Please review this paper.

https://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/9506023

Basically, it provides an explanation for the light produced by sonoluminescence. According to this theory, the abrupt collapse of the bubble induces vacuum polarization of electron positron pairs that then emits radiation. I think that the sudden in surges and collisions in the SK could be extracting energy from the vacuum in this manner.

The abrupt collapse of the bubble induces vacuum generation of photon pairs via hawking radiation. The blue light comes from the negative energy photon that has a negative frequency that corresponds to the frequency of the positive photon partner.

   Good morning.

   Andrea, I do not know anything about January 31st presentation. Nevertheless, I am asking you a “favour”: should you plan to have (in this presentation)a phase change of a coolant fluid, please manage to gauge steam phase quality. Just to silence critics and avoid lenghty (and pointless) discussions in the aftermath.

   With all my best wishes,

   Our target are the potential clients, not the rock and troll musicians.

   It is time for LENR to exit the frogs pond and look at the business ocean, where commercial results are the meter of facts. The aftermath that counts for us are the contracts to sell heat, not the chatters of a bunch of imbeciles with a paid for agenda.

   Warm Regards,

A Unifying Theory of Dark Energy and Dark Matter: Negative Masses and Matter Creation within a Modified ΛCDM Framework

There is a cosmological theory that the universe has an exactly balanced zero energy content and is balanced between positive energy/mass and negative/ energy/mass.

There is a problem that exists in cosmology called the flatness problem

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatness_problem

Flatness problem

In order for the universe to remain flat, the proportions of both positive matter.energy and negative matter and energy must be precisely equal. If this is not the case, then the existence of life in the universe is not possible.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedmann_equations

Friedmann equations

A flat euclidean universe can only exist in a zero energy universe. In order for the universe to stay flat and also to constantly expand, both positive energy/matter and negative energy/matter must be forming in a precisely balanced continuous process. This currently unrecognized process pumps out matter and energy as well as an equal amount of matching dark matter and dark energy in a continuous and on-going basis.

There exists as an ongoing process in every star and inside every planet a process that produces polarized energy from the vacuum. This reaction is the source of polarized (Positive/negative) matter and energy throughout the universe. Because this reaction maintains an exact balance in the creation of this polarized energy, the flatness of the universe is exactly maintained.

This reaction has been discovered and will be utilized in a commercial product that will be introduced on this upcoming January 31. A two hour live demo available on the internet will be held to mark the introduction of this commercial product.

Muons make protons act more like neutrons. As it turns out, so might quasi-particles like exciton polaritons or surface plasmon polaritons.

A polariton condensate has unique identifying behaviors. One that is amazing and telling is that it accumulates negative mass. The behavior that marks the presence of polariton condensation in LENR is the way that the black EVO floats over an irregular surface when the EMF absorption behavior sets in. This behavior was mentioned in Ken Shoulders' book.

The other polariton condensation indicator that we have seen is how the EVO behaves in its "tackyon" mode. The EVO that was seen in the ash from the LION reactor shows a strange radiator that floats over a surface and punches holes in the sub-strait when its magnetic flux tube touches the surface. The production of a magnetic flux tube is also a definitive sign that the polariton condensate is at play in LENR. The Black EVO bounces over the surface of the ash like a rabbit due to the levitation generated by the negative energy produced as it extracts energy from the vacuum..
