Talking about MIT, here's a fascinating lecture from Peter Hagelstein from about 5 years ago where he discusses how the vast majority of F and P replication attempts since 1989, over 200, missed some critical aspect of the experiment. In particular, few replications took a month to load their palladium matrix with deuterium, as F and P did, causing the palladium lattice to crack. So there wasn't enough internal pressure for the reaction to produce excess heat. Quote from the end: "Even if cold fusion powered MIT with all of its energy needs, they still would not believe in it." Another great paraphrase from somewhere in the middle. "Cold fusion isn't a technical question that needs to be proved anymore, it's a social process involving all the institutions that don't want it to work."

A suggestion for experimentation to improve the Thor system as follows.

There is a proven method to amplify the transmutation effects that are operating in the Thor system. In the QuarkX demo, a radio pumping signal was applied to the EVO in the first 4 seconds of the cycle. Then when the RF pumping stopped, so did the activity of the EVOs. Rossi was running that reactor at 20% prower and not pumping the reaction is the way Rossi controlled the rate of power production.

In my way of thinking, both electrons and photons are required to feed the EVO to higher quasiparticle numbers. So photons could be applied to the EVO population to increase the energy production and the rate of transmutation that the EVO can generate.

The issue is that there is a equalization of energy required between the Electron and the photon to build a LENR quasiparticle. But as the EVO increases in its power potential, the frequency of the photon must also increase to supply that plumping equalization.

For example, in the Rossi SKL reactor, the photons energy needed to support the quasiparticle power potential of that reactor is in the UVA range, But in the SunCell, the pumping photon frequency is in the EUV range.

So at any given stage of EVO growth, we are not able to determine a fixed photon pumping frequency to grow the EVO in an optimum way from it formative stage to its maximum size because the pumping frequency of the photons must increase apace as the EVOs grow larger.

The way to solve this pumping control issue is to use a photon source that produces all the photon frequencies in a broad spectrum that ranges from deep infrared to near x-ray. That wide ranging photon source is a spark.

Therefore I suggest that In the Thor system, install a sparkplug in the EVO active zone between the two reaction spheres that is driven by the ignition of the engine. That spark will grow the EVO population to its maximum transmutation potential, that is, to eliminate the maximum amount of Carbon.

Anther possible optimization is to feed a fraction (to be determined) of the exhaust back into the cylinders so that the EVOs that are being created will be reused in the next cycle of combustion. The exhaust that is recycled has a higher oxygen content after carbon is transmuted into oxigen.

Shock waves from exploding EVOs from the exhaust stream fed into the cylinder(s) might increase the power that the engine is producing as was the case in the Papp engine.

Bob, When I mentioned having the exhaust output into a large tank full of noble gas of your choice, I was just trying to think of ways to understand how the inflow was affecting the element measurements in the exhaust. In other words, remove the possibility of mistake of measuring atmospheric gases that come from the vortex action.

Remove the possibility of atmosphere air being sucked in to the pipe and reaching the sensor measuring the exhaust.

This is a video with a potential tech that employs EVOs in some way.

I have saved it a couple of days ago because I wanted to show you Bob and all others this tech that must show what you are talking about with laser beam making EVOs from the air travel down the beam.

I don't believe that light can be the cause of this effect but rather it must be a tech that either creates EVOs on the surface of the object or, as you say Bob, captures EVOs from the air and they go to work on the object. The fact that it seem to be more or less an instant effect talk more to EVO interaction then that the laser beam should heat the surface and thereby remove the corrosion.

Lasers do produce the LENR reaction on metal surfaces especially rusty surfaces.Light is a essential factor in the LENR reaction. See my post above.

I got quoted! Thanks! I hope everyone else verifies the numbers, the data is all available and in any case is very useful.

Always finding humor in the seriousness of the science 🧚‍♀️

As an indoctrinated Catholic I can appreciate this sacred sentiment and symbolic messaging of the universe and god’s toolbox 🧰

I do love the smell of frankincense and myrrh, but find the smell of diesel combustion is quite repulsive 🤢 the aftermath of a plasma event such as a hurricane 🌀 or tornado 🌪️ leaves a nasty smell in the destructive aftermath as well as the fragrant beauty in the waifs of new life
