Excess Heat

When I learned about it, I was initially not concerned at all about the theory of Dr. Mills.  I saw claims of high replication rates and high power gain in a light water electrolytic calorimetry experiment.  It was reproduced by several experimenters, some of whom, like Dr. Robert Bush, rejected the hydrino hypothesis, but confirmed that light water "cold fusion" excess heat was happening in his lab.  This was at a university and it attracted a lot of interest, so it seemed to me that it probably was real.  I just wanted to see something produce excess heat. I read Dr. Mills' 1991 paper as far as I could, enough to grasp his novel physical conceptualization of the electron and claims that this held up well in mathematical physics modeling to produce behaviors in agreement with well established observations.  I dropped it in favor of other cold fusion work when I then went to work for Dr. Mallove.  My interest was jump-started when I met Dr. Phillips, as des...

 I enjoy watching this old video  (it may take a while to load, being so long), despite the awful sound quality and barely legible graphics.  It certainly does make us appreciate how much better media has become for ordinary users.  Future videos provided by Dr. Mills have been much better.  This was not produced by him.  I recently added subtitles with the use of AI, which cleaned up audio.  I went through it to fix various words, but it remains a good faith representation. This meeting was attended by a room full of professional chemists, presumably, and I recognize some of them from the back of their heads, including Dr. Martin Fleischmann, who poses a most germane question to Dr. Mills about whether or not they had papers published to support the statements being made in this lengthy series of lectures from Dr. Mills and supporting scientists.   It is possible to understand much more of the discussion in this version, which improved my op...

Another amazing product from Claude Sonnet 5 was a result of giving it a group of files, including some that I wrote, mostly in defense of Dr. Mills' theory and claims.  I asked for a dialogue between two imaginary scientists with appropriate backgrounds in the standard model.  One of them, Dr. Kessler, is convinced that the support for SQM is strong and complete, although even he had to admit, SQM is not what we would like to see in a physics theory.  Dr. Marsh is educated like Kessler, but can see, by adopting a perspective rooted in 1926, that GUTCP should be taken seriously.  It is a dialogue that I can imagine being taken seriously by academics, although they'd probably never admit it. Google's NotebookLM was used by me to discuss the essay by Schrodinger, Are There Quantum Jumps? , which is discussed in this recently produced Claude dialogue.  This essay has been a frequent subject of my thoughts and writing.   I get a little nervous when I am c...

A new website was recently published by me, composed by Claude.  It began with a large collection of Dr. Mills' and his coauthors journal publications that I had in a folder.  I merely asked Claude to produce the website and tell me how to publish it at no cost on the Internet.  I specified basic features that would allow the articles to be listed by author, chronologically and to be searched by word or phrase.  In addition, I included a search engine for News items on the Brilliant Light Power website . Because these papers are generally copyrighted, I had Claude produce paraphrased summaries in a quite readable form.  The reader is reminded to obtain the original paper to obtain graphical and other authoritative information. The obvious purpose is to facilitate the study of the work of Dr. Mills and related scientists. I have been in discussion with Dr. Raj Pala about what kinds of experiments he might find most fruitful in his investigations into the empiric...

  Alex Combs used Fable 5 to generate a slide deck to summarize Chapter 7 of GUTCP .  I have struggled with reading GUTCP.  I have taken a lot of math courses.  I got A's in calculus and believe that I had a pretty good grasp of the math in the courses that followed, although I did not master the material.  I can understand the math in GUTCP, one line at a time.  To digest a piece of it, and then relate it to the material that came before it and after it would be a feat that is too much for me at this point in my life.  It requires a fluency with the math, which is "just" electromagnetics, that I could have tackled as a teenager, but to be honest, I cannot say that I have a solid grasp on most of the book.  I am not the one to look to as an expert on this, but Dr. Phillips is (assuming you don't wish to read GUTCP), and his series is geared for maybe a sophomore science student level. What matters is the basics.  The force balance equations ...

The history of efforts to conceptualize the extremely small is ancient.  The two opposing schools were particle and aetheric.  At different times, it was generally believed that extremely small pieces (Greek: 'a tomos', literally not cuttable, or irreducible to smaller parts) comprised everything, as opposed to everything was made of some materia prima.  This historical sequence is a fine way to tour the way people came to understand what could never be examined directly with the senses on the smallest scale of size.  The fact that the conceptualizations became empirically testable is of paramount importance, a testament to human persistence and ingenuity. In 1913, Bohr introduced his model of the atom, which gave us the well known image that everyone has when picturing an atom.  However impossible it was, it was so useful.  It was a big step toward making sense of line spectral data that had been empirically fit with the Rydberg formula that matched at lea...
