belovelife Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 http://www.slideshare.net/lewisglarsen/lattice-energy-llclenrs-on-hydrogenated-fullerenes-and-graphenejuly-6-2012 from chevron linked in discussion New Lattice upload Jul. 6, 2012: Low Energy Nuclear Reactions LENRs can be triggered on hydrogenated Carbon nanotubes & Graphene substrates; recent Nature papers confirm surface plasmons on Graphene While the theoretical mechanism conjectured for their data back in the mid-1990s was erroneous, it appears that the carefully executed high-current Carbon-arc in ultrapure H2O experiments conducted at Texas A&M and BARC that were reported in Fusion Technology (peer-reviewed journal published by the American Nuclear Society) in 1994 probably did indeed produce nuclear transmutation products in the form of anomalous Fe, Cr, and Ni. In the new July 6, 2012, Lattice Technical Update we show how these previously inexplicable experimental results can be understood with the assistance of the Widom-Larsen theory of LENRs and its extension to fullerenes and Graphene as viable LENR-active substrates. Therein, we also provide examples which suggest that the rich, rapidly advancing chemistry of fullerenes and Graphene/Graphane might be fruitfully applied to the design and fabrication of better devices having LENR-active surfaces; amazingly, chemical and nuclear processes can work side-by-side and likely interoperate in real-time on such surfaces. In other earlier Lattice SlideShare presentations, we have shown how mass spectroscopy studies reported in peer-reviewed journals have revealed an array of elemental and isotopic anomalies that occur in processes that also just happen to produce Carbon nanotubes and Graphene, e.g., hydrous pyrolysis inside Gold-lined reaction vessels (Unocal chemists reported unexplained ‘disappearance’ of Nickel and Vanadium during pyrolysis of crude oil samples), coke production (unexplained heavy Nitrogen-15 anomalies reported by an IAEA team), vehicular catalytic converters (numerous observations of anomalous elements detected in exhaust streams, e.g., Gold, as well as significant isotopic shifts have been reported by environmental chemists), and varied electric arc discharges (e.g., work of Prof. Hantaro Nagaoka et al. in Japan as reported in “Nature” back in 1925), among others. That said, the remaining burning question is what % of these isotopic and elemental anomalies are simply the result of chemical fractionation processes versus those caused by ‘exotic’ LENRs? Quote
tetrahedron Posted August 1, 2012 Report Posted August 1, 2012 If true, well, mouth-hanging-open moment... I've previously found that the differences between peaks and between valleys in the Miley nuclide production chart(s) have a relationship to the Lucas numbers (which like Fibonacci have ratios that converge on the Golden Mean). Currently I'm finding that related numbers seem to link nucleons in normal nuclei. Perhaps this might point the way to ideal LENR fuel mixtures that maximize energy output, or particular element output. Jess Tauber Quote
