Unless science understands how LENR produces heat inside planets, they will be faced with mounting numbers of unsolvable cosmological conundrums.
Scientists shocked to find Mercury has liquid metal core and a magnetic field like Earth MAY 13, 2015 BY DAN TAYLOR Scientists shocked to find Mercury has liquid metal core and a magnetic field like Earth NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft smashed into the planet's surface on April 30after four years in orbit, but not before sending back some amazing data. Scientists were floored recently after getting back data from NASA’s MESSENGER space probe that showed that Mercury has a core filled with sloshing liquid metal, much like Earth — and they’re scratching their heads as to how that’s possible. Mercury had been thought to be too small to have a liquid core, as scientists believed the metal would have cooled relatively quickly in its history, but the MESSENGER space probe sent back data before slamming into the planet onApril 30 that indicated that yes, its core still contains molten metal, and that metal is creating a magnetic field similar to that of Earth, according to a Space.com report. It’s nowhere near as powerful — scientists estimate that it is 100 times weaker than Earth’s. But the findings still surprised scientists who thought they would find a solid rock core much like the other rocky planets in our solar system. The findings shed new light on the evolution of Mercury, the closest planet to the sun and the smallest planet in the solar system, and will force scientists to rethink how it developed. The five factors that might contribute to the formation of hydrogen Rydberg matter (HRM) are as follows: Electropositive catalytic activity (i.e. lithium, potassium, calcium oxide, rare earth oxides), The low work function of this material seems to be important in HRM catalytic activity. This includes graphite ( arxiv.org/pdf/1501.05056v1.pdf) In the Lugano report, there was a coating of rare earths on the nickel fuel particles. This might be related to reducing the work functions of the nickel particles as a result of rare earth oxides in the fuel. High pressure produced by flaws in the crystal structure of metal (i.e. nickel) Electrostatic field produced by pointy nanostructures. Hexagonal crystal structure that provides a quantum mechanical template for HRM formation. A long timeframe – this speaks to the fact that HRM is driven by probability causation similar to radioactive decay. Once HRM is formed, it remains active for a long time if it is kept inside the reactor core using containment of a magnetic material. and If you take a look at the latest data from the Pluto flyby, you can see another cosmologic mystery rear its head that can be well explained by metalized hydrogen as a LENR heat source. sciencemag.org/news/2015/07/pluto-alive-where-heat-coming <http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2015/07/pluto-alive-where-heat-coming> Pluto is alive—but where is the heat coming from? space.com/29968-pluto-charon-photos-active-icy-worlds.html <http://www.space.com/29968-pluto-charon-photos-active-icy-worlds.html> New Photos of Pluto and Moon Surprise, Puzzle Scientists There is a tremendous amount of heat coming from the interior of Pluto and its small satellite; so much so, that the surface of Pluto is resurfaced by the eruption of ice from the interior of Pluto. Also there is a constant replenishment of the nitrogen atmosphere of Pluto from the interior. The standard causes given for planetary heat production does not apply, that being heat from the sun, radioactive decay, and friction caused by tidal stretching. Furthermore, there is evidence that other smaller free standing bodies in the Kuiper belt sometimes called the Edgeworth–Kuiper belt, are at the far edge of the solar system are producing their own internal heat. Although to date most KBOs still appear spectrally featureless due to their faintness, there have been a number of successes in determining their composition. In 1996, Robert H. Brown et al. obtained spectroscopic data on the KBO 1993 SC, revealing its surface composition to be markedly similar to that of Pluto, as well as Neptune's moon Triton, possessing large amounts of methane ice. Water ice has been detected in several the Kuiper belt objects (KBO)s, including 1996 TO66, 38628 Huya and 20000 Varuna. In 2004, Mike Brown et al. determined the existence of crystalline water ice and ammonia hydrateon one of the largest known KBOs, 50000 Quaoar. Both of these substances would have been destroyed over the age of the Solar System, suggesting that Quaoar had been recently resurfaced, either by unexplained internal tectonic activity or by meteorite impacts. In my opinion, LENR based on metallized hydrogen is a possible answer to these strange cosmological conundrums. I agree with Ed Storms that the many experiments in LENR show that this strange process is basically produced among other things by imperfections in the lattice structure of transition metals: cracks as Ed terms these imperfections. Ed Storms is postulating that a new form of hydrogen is central to the LENR process. I suspect that this is correct. The way this newly recognized type of hydrogen is produced is through the application of high pressure. Hydrogen has a complex state diagram that shows how hydrogen can evolve from a dielectric gas into a metal through the application of high temperature and/or pressure. More broadly, I suspect that there is a yet undiscovered mode of chemistry that exists at high pressure which produces LENR active chemical compounds. The pressure exerted by the chemical bonds surrounding the voids in the lattice structure of transition metals could become high enough to produce high pressure formed chemical compounds that demonstrate the LENR effect. Other quantum mechanical based mechanisms add to this probability that high pressure LENR compounds will form. One such added pressure amplification cause is a pressure shock as suggested is required by Piantelli. In a completely independent line of evidence, one indication that high pressure chemistry is active as a source of heat is the evidence of the completion of a number of NASA planetary mission probes that has shown unexplained heat sources in the cores of celestial bodies of sufficient mass to produce high pressure chemistry at the centers of these objects. These include the Moon, Mercury, Pluto, Ceres, and various other less massive bodies in both the Kuiper belt and asteroid belts. Such chemistry might even be at work within the Sun as indicated by the new solar probes fielded by NASA. In addition, evidence derived from the high pressure conditions produced by collapsing cavitation bubbles indicate that other high pressure chemical compounds besides hydrogen might also produce LENR effects. These compounds include but not limited to water, liquid metals, and molten salts. There is also a theory that high pressure chemistry might be the basis of the effects expected by dark matter. Holmlid, Mills, and Shoulders have speculated that the chemical compounds produced by high pressure/EMF are dark matter. The characteristics of these compounds indicated that they absorb EMF energy in a dark mode and gain mass/energy through the absorption of catalyzed nuclear binding energy to form WIMPS (in particle physics and astrophysics, weakly interacting massive particles are among the last hypothetical particle physics candidates for dark matter) These particles convert catalyzed energy derive from nuclear binding energy into thermal energy through quantum mechanical means. These particles in their natural state have not yet been detected as dark matter because they are only produced by the high pressure conditions inside large celestial objects and exist in a metastable condition. Because these particles are metastable, these exotic neutral particles (ENP) will decay in time if their stores of energy are not replenished in an ongoing process.
