It all seems unnecessarily secretive to me, what are they hiding? If they are going to go public why bother withholding information? Maybe they are just deluded about what they hope to achieve, because it couldn't possibly be fraud, incredibly cheap energy they say? How can anyone verify what they ...

Bk78, With all affection, I am pleased that you still operate under the delusion that any human knows how the universe works, even a little. No Higgs boson proves we know nothing about the workings of the universe? Rubbish. Wrong is a relative term ... I will willingly grant that our knowledge of t...

Why's there no use R&Ding PW to useful working state in private? Because all the Polywell fanboys (myself included) tend to lack the US $10's of millions of disposable investment capitol needed to build such a thing in our garage. If I had a Billion US$ sitting in my investment portfolio at the mom...

I've voiced my suspicion before that the universe may be even weirder than we think - causality may not always hold true. "There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even ...

do we really know anything here? I do. You do too. But don't want to trust. But who knows, maybe they're testing in Swaziland! I like more Gaza Sector. A reliable source tells me they are testing in Elbonia: http://dilbert.com/dyn/str_strip/000000000/00000000/0000000/000000/10000/2000/600/12607/126...

What is improbable about a coffee machine?

The question then would become... if it works, how is the coulomb barrier overcome in these low energy lattice regimes? BECs? Polaritons? Mini-atoms? Something else? (or perhaps it doesn't work after all!) Free Nobel prize for the first person to prove such LENR reactions really exist and can provi...

I, for one, would definitely appreciate it if this thread could be 'unhijacked' and we could see/discuss Nebel's arguments.

Agreed. Do not feed the trolls.

Finally, I again supply a link to a source that is well respected. The graph labels and text clearly illustrates the accepted physics. please read the entire page, not just the first slide. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hframe.html Dan Tibbets I presume you were intending to link to a ...

I got something like (fudging sig figs): Ni62(61.9283) + (P)1.0078 -> (Cu63)62.9295 62.9361 - 62.9295 = 0.0066 This would be exothermic by Joseph's explanation correct? Correct. Of course, this bit of math has been shown about 100 times over the last 235 pages... 62Ni 61.9283451 + 1H 1.0078250 - 63...

Until the neighborhood cops show up in their dimensional slips and tell us to chill, abide by local conservation regulations and to quit shortening the lifespan of the universe our children will inherit. "Yo, Mike!" "Yeah, Gabe?" "We got a problem down on Earth." "I thought you fixed that last cent...

I'm not talking about lame investors who are conned out of a few hundred dollars. When someone invests tens of millions of dollars they do research it. They wouldn't have that much money if they were stupid. If you don't understand that you know very little about how the world works. "A fool and hi...

...a commercially available benchtop laser starts the reaction. ... Even at 50 percent efficiency, burning off 40 milligrams of the boron fuel would deliver a gigajoule of energy. The amount of power depends on the laser pulse rate. The motor could generate 1 megawatt per second if the pulses are f...
