LENR REALISM AND INFO FOR AUG 21, 2015




MOTTO


Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real. (Federico Fellini)
 I guess that innovation is to our time what art was to the Renaissance.

Discovering deeper and subtler sense(s) of concepts

As told, before Rossi's LENR+ event/revelation in Jan 2011, I have worked for 8.5
years as editor of a web-search journal at the leading local Internet Service Provider. News -a broad range from the Web ..Science, Technology, Art...To Gastronomy and recipes, selected papers about Management and Motivational- translated in Romanian. But I have decided to have a personal- if possible creative contribution- a "voice." Exactly as now, when the aim of EGO OUT is to write about the latest LENR news, fast, but I start in expressionist style telling what I think about the situation, problems, trends and perspectives of LENR. Expressionist because it does not impress my readers too much and the old Cold Fusion LENR myths stay undisturbed.
Ok, I wanted to write Editorials and it was a long range actions- hundreds of them. I have excluded ab ovo politics and local events- the competition was terrible and also
any form of spirituality- as subjects. I discovered that rethinking all kinds of concepts
with the help of the Internet could be the way- and it really was something challenging and captivating, kind of personal intellectual Renaissance. The tasks for old fighters who have nothing more to lose- must be infinite and impossible and this was- however I have applied the method for more than 300 important concepts.

Many times this was a revelatory, illuminating mental process how from the
original raw , everyday sense of a definition I could advance to superior, enriched
specific subtler understanding, to a larger vision, deeper, philosophical understanding of a concept. One of the best examples was Complexity about which I spoke yesterday.  
A saying about metaphor (that was also subject of an analysis-synthesis) is:
The metaphor is perhaps one of man's most fruitful potentialities. Its efficacy verges on magic, and it seems a tool for creation which God forgot inside one of His creatures when He made him. (José Ortega y Gasset)
The metaphor for refining and rebuilding basic concepts is that of Michelangelo- to discover and make free the sculptures that are hiding in the raw stone. See the first Motto- I think realism is too much considered as passive acceptance of the things as they really are- however in higher sense it is about bold innovative conversion of the possibilities in realities, useful positive ones, beyond what seemed to be the very limits.LENR is also a concept- a meta-concept. A great stone with many giants inside.

1) AIRBUS going LENR   (a sticky title!)

2) Progress in Development of an LENR Power Cell for Space

Abstract,
 Anomalous heat, attributed to Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENRs), is obtained by pressurizing metal alloy nanoparticles with deuterium gas. The reactions are enhanced by creation of ultra high-density deuterium clusters in the nanoparticles. Experiments comparing various nanoparticles and plans for a proof-of-principle power unit are presented. Potential applications to space power are briefly discussed.

  1. The Miley progress report is interesting since it reports a number of experimental details. On the other hand, he still hasn't solved the sintering problem as far as I can tell, which makes it impossible to sustain energy release over a period of time sufficient to definitively prove the existence of non-chemical reactions, and of course makes it impractical as an energy source. This report also doesn't provide any kind of isotopic or radiation analysis which might demonstrate the existence of LENR. LENUCO has been around for 4-5 years and so this is not new. It might be interesting to look at Miley's contribution to ICCF19 if he has one and also compare with his ICCF18 poster in which there was an isotopic analysis. On another note, what about Piantelli, and also Piantelli and MFMP? Is Piantelli's approach a dead-end? A few years ago Piantelli was claiming 100 W cells. He was also claiming that he had seen 1 MeV protons in a cloud chamber. What happened to the collaboration between Piantelli and MFMP? Was this stillborn due to NDA requirements? My impression is that Piantelli is and was far ahead of Miley (one uses nanostructure thin-films, the other use nanoparticles) and yet both appear to be "stuck" in some way. I hope I'm wrong about this.
