Abstract
We investigate whether Dark Gravity theories (DG) with two conjugate metrics gμν and g‾μνμρ ηνλ gˆρλ  where ημρ is supposed to be a background non dynamical and flat metric or an auxiliary field, actually predicted the occurrence of apparently superluminal propagations (from our metric side gμν point of view) such as the one recently reported by the Opera experiment. We find that indeed such theories could predict the order of magnitude of the superluminal velocity and even explain the apparent conflict with the SN1987 normal neutrino speeds provided the neutrinos are able to oscillate between the two conjugate metrics while propagating in a dense medium. We then explain the theoretical motivations and explore all possible phenomenological consequences of the field discontinuities naturally expected in some Dark Gravity theories. Since the Opera result was not confirmed, these discontinuities do not actually allow a propagation of neutrinos oscillating between the two conjugate metrics.

    Everytime I look at the page 92 of my book Quantum Ring Theory, I remember Hal Fox.

    He was the Editor of the Journal of New Energy, which published my paper A NEW MODEL OF THE NEUTRON in the Vol. 4, No. 4, 2000.
    http://www.padrak.com/ine/JNEV4N4.html

    That was the first publication of a paper of mine in a scientific journal.
    I am very thankful to him.

    Make the equations and you will discover that the lepton conservation law is not respected. ” Electron capture” has never been really observed for this reason: it is a sort of an Arab Phoenix. All the theories based on this effect are groundless. This is my opinion. Ready to change it if experimental evidence of electron capture will be produced.

    I agree with what you say now; it is true that the neutrinos have made respected the conservation of the leptons parity in the equations of many Feynman diagrams, but they cannot do it in the electron capture described in LENR theories, which, therefore, do not respect the leptons conservation law. Therefore such theories are wrong. The mechanism that allows the production of energy by means of the so called Rossi Effect is totally different.

    COMMENT

    Don Borghi and Conte-Pieralice experiments have shown that neutron must be formed by proton+electron.

    C. Borghi, C. Giori, A.A. Dall’Ollio, Experimental Evidence of Emission of Neutrons from Cold Hydrogen Plasma, American Institute of Physics (Phys. At. Nucl.), vol 56, no 7, 1993.

    E. Conte, M. Pieralice, An Experiment Indicates the Nuclear Fusion of the Proton and Electron into a Neutron, Infinite Energy, vol 4, no 23-1999, p 67.

    .

    A neutron formed by proton+electron requires new laws.

    The quantum spin 1/2 of the electron is due to its intrinsic spin (rotation of its body, like the rotation of the Earth about its axis) and the helical trajectory of the electron (zitterbewegung).

    When the electron is captured by a proton, the electron loses its helical trajectory, and it loses its spin 1/2, and that’s whay the neutron has spin 1/2.
    When the electron loses its helical trajectory, an antineutrino is emitted with spin 1/2, so that to keep the conservation of the total angular momentum.

    Therefore, at the first glance, its seems to have a violation of the addition of spins. But there is not violation, because an antineutrino with spin 1/2 is created when the electron loses its spin 1/2.

    Not only the electron is submitted to such a mechanism of losing its spin 1/2.
    All the leptons also are submitted to such a law, which I call spin-fusion in my theory.

    In the paper A NEW MODEL OF THE NEUTRON, published in my book Quantum Ring Theory, it is shown that several reactions of Particle Physics must be explained by considering the spin-fusion.

    In the page 92 of my book QRT it is written the following:

    Page 92 of QRT:
    ————————————————-
    There is an interesting fact that we can note. In their book, Eisberg & Resnick say: So, the conservation of the parity can be violated in the K decay like it is violated in the beta-decay, because in the both decays there is participation of the weak force, in which there is not conservation of the parity”

    As we realize, because the physicists did not discover that the addition of spins is violated, they transferred the problem for the parity. Instead of: “the addition of spins is violated in the beta-decay”, they say: “the parity is not kept in the beta-decay”

    Now we understand what happens: because a lepton is hidden into the structure of the neutron and in the structure of the mesons and other particles, after the decay the lepton is responsible by a fantasy result which cannot be understood by the current theories.

    It is important to note that the total addition of spins is not violated.

    Wlad is using electric quadripole and magnetic moment values to explain possible internal mechanisms.
    ———————————————

    COMMENT

    No, dear Mr. eernie1

    I have actually proposed a new nuclear model, which works by new physical mechanisms missing in the current nuclear models.

    And by using my model I calculate magnetic moments, nuclear spíns, and electric quadrupole, so that to compare the theoretical values obtained from calculation with the values measured by experiments.

    Therefore, I use electric quadrupole, nuclear spins, and magnetic moments so that to prove that my model is able to reproduce the nuclear properties of the nuclei.

    This is a procedure always used so that to verify if a theoretical model is agree to values obtained from experiments.

    In my new nuclear model, the protons and neutrons are not bound via strong nuclear force.
    Such proposal of my theory is confirmed by that experiment published in 2009, where a halo neutron is 7fm far away from the rest of the nucleus 4Be11:
    http://www.uni-mainz.de/eng/13031.php

    As the strong force actuates only in a maximum distance of 3fm, of course the halo neutron in a distance of 7fm from the nucleus cannot be bound via strong force.

    The puzzle of the halo neutron in 4Be11 is explained by considering the nuclear model proposed in Quantum Ring Theory, as shown in the page 71 of the paper “STABILTY OF LIGHT NUCLEI”, published here in JoNP.

    However, as always happens when the current nuclear models are invalidated by a new experiment, the nuclear theorists try to justify that experimental result by applying the Heisenberg’s phantasmagoric method: they propose some absurd explanation based on a mathematical assumptions, by neglecting that phenomena must be caused by physical causes.
    This is the sort of solution addopted by Dr. Wilfried Nörtershäuser of the Institute of Nuclear Chemistry, who proposed the following:
    ========================================
    The riddle as to how the halo neutron can exist at such a great distance from the core nucleus can only be resolved by means of the principles of quantum mechanics: In this model, the neutron must be characterized in terms of a so-called wave function. Because of the low binding energy, the wave function only falls off very slowly with increasing distance from the core. Thus, it is highly likely that the neutron can expand into classically forbidden distances, thereby inducing the expansive ‘heiligenschein’.
    ========================================

    As we easily realize, to consider that “the neutron can expand into classically forbidden distances” is a mere desperate attempt so that to save the current nuclear models, which were developed by applying the phantasmagoric Heisenberg’s scientific method.

    It’s hard to consider seriously any desperate attempts similar to that tried by Dr. Wilfried Nörtershäuser.

    .

    The puzzles of exotic light nuclei ( which have nuclear properties impossible to be explained by the Standard Nuclear Physics) shows clearly that there is need to abandon the prevailing nuclear models, and to start to consider seriously a new nuclear model with fundamental principles missing in the current nuclear models.

    It is cold here in Chicago, it is a slow day in the world of LENR information and I have entirely too much time on my hands at the present. So I would like to present a few thoughts that may interest the readers of this site. The work of Wlad and Sarg to my thinking is not fully appreciated by most people. Their investigations into the geometrical factors of the atomic nuclei may hold the answers to getting energy from the nucleus. I have noticed an increase in the mainstream interest into the geometry of Quantum systems. One scheme is claimed to be able to interpret branching reactions far better than the Feynman method by using a geometrical system. Wlad is using electric quadripole and magnetic moment values to explain possible internal mechanisms. Sarg goes directly to the forms of the nuclear particles to predict their behavior. Perhaps the answers to the LENR puzzle can be obtained by investigating how external forces can change the symmetry/asymmetry of the interior nuclear arrangements releasing internal energy. One other subject lately has interested me. Gravity is the most mysterious entity in the physical spectrum of subjects. We know that it performs much like most force fields. Its force diminishes as the square of distance between masses, and recently two Chinese scientists have measured its propagation rate as that of the speed of light using lunar effects upon the tides of earth oceans. However its effect is always attractive as opposed to the bipolar characteristic of other fields which can be attractive or repulsive depending on the orientation of its field components. A monopole should be repulsive unless one field could reverse the other fields polarity at a rapid pace. A dipole field should be capable of reversal and thus Gravity reversed. The solution may lie in the symmetrical arrangement of the nucleus.

    Andrea Rossi,

    A continuing interest has been new forms/phases of Carbon. Now scientists at Rice University, (Houston) and the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) along with the Emanuel Institute of Biochemical Physics (Moscow) have discovered (a new phase) or invented another form of carbon called ‘Diamane’. Diamane is a several-atom thick Diamond film made from chemically treating sheets of Graphene.

    As with graphene, graphane, graphyne and now diamane, some of these carbon materials (plus Hydrogen in graphane) may help remove heat more rapidly from high temperature devices that might otherwise melt. You may find some use for this material.

    Not everything has been invented yet.
    And there always will be new ways to combine and develop what has already been invented.

    Frank Acland:
    This is an issue that does not depend on me. I heard that the publication will be made on a peer reviewed magazine, but let me say also that when a paper is signed by 6 Professors coming from different scientific institutes it is already reviewed, because all the 6 must agree on the publication, and each of them reviews the work of the Others. Besides, Arxiv Physics has anyway a preliminar peer reviewing: many manuscripts are not published, because considered incomplete, even if endorsed from well known experts.

    James Bowery: I want to complete my answer to your emotional comment saying that we are working as hard as we can to lower the energy costs. I just wanted to say that it is irrealistic to think that all the other energy sources will be displaced.

    Dear Andrea,

    Regarding the third party report:

    Last year, the report of the Third Indipendent Party was published on arxiv.org, rather than in a peer reviewed journal.

    Do you expect this new report will be accepted by a peer-reviewed journal?

    If it is not, should we expect to see it on arxiv.org?

    Many thanks,

  • Dr. Rossi,

    You might be interested in what is happening in the rural midwest with the propane shortage. See this graph of historic vs current prices:

    http://www.neo.ne.gov/statshtml/images/86.jpg

    These prices have never been approached even remotely in history.

    People on fixed incomes in rural areas are now in physical danger, not to mention the livestock of farmers who aren’t near natural gas lines.

    We held off borrowing money from relatives to install a heat pump, hoping for a home heating unit to hit the market. Now our house has no furnace heat. We’re keeping it at 50F with electric space heaters. My wife has advanced Huntingtons Disease and I must care for her which means I cannot work outside the home — care for which I receive no compensation. As bad as our situation is, it is a mere inconvenience and mild discomfort compared to more elderly farming couples who have not moved to nursing homes and are staying on their farms. They are now facing a severe winter storm ripping through the Midwest. There is a distinct possibility of deaths in some of these families — particularly as almost all of their children have left farming life for the cities and are not available for emergency help.

    My wife is one tough chick and we have relatives near by, so we’re in no danger (we’re careful with the electric space heaters), but I thought it might be worthwhile mentioning the fact that even in the developed world, your technology is starting to look like a life-saver given the vagaries of the petroleum infrastructure.

  • Sven Kullander
    9 March 1936 — 28 January 2014

    Professor Emeritus Sven Kullander passed away on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 at the age of 77.

    Sven was Professor in High Energy Physics at Uppsala University and has contributed to the understanding of the Quark structure of matter in Nuclear Physics and to the development of Accelerators to improve the findings in the search for matters finest constituents. Sven was also a respected member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

    Prof. Kullander showed interest in the E-Cat and LENR but always held a professional and impartial approach seeking repeatable undisputable evidence of the effect, verifiable through as many means as possible. It was through some of these verification tests, taking place in Bologna, that we came to know Prof. Kullander.

    Prof. Kullander’s contribution to the reputability of the E-Cat is in no doubt even though his stringency of verifiability hindered him from endorsing it publicly.

    It is with great grief we see Sven leave us on our journey and we send our sincerest condolences to his family and loved ones and to his coworkers and fellow scientists.

    Rest in Peace Sven.

    You have already indicated that you don’t appreciate theories that involve inverse beta decay or hydrinos for the explanation of the “Rossi effect”. Would you say, without giving a name, that any of the published approaches (whether peer reviewed or not) explains the effect correctly?

I look forward and with great anticipation to the publishing of the Rossi effect. I wish you all the best of luck.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Eernie:
    I agree with what you say now; it is true that the neutrinos have made respected the conservation of the leptons parity in the equations of many Feynman diagrams, but they cannot do it in the electron capture described in LENR theories, which, therefore, do not respect the leptons conservation law. Therefore such theories are wrong. The mechanism that allows the production of energy by means of the so called Rossi Effect is totally different.

  • eernie1

    Andrea, You are right to consider the conservation of Lepton parity in any proposed electron mechanism. This is why the neutrino was devised and experimentally discovered. It has explained many of the previous experimental results which required a balance to be observed and this is why I think electron involvement can be proposed in LENR effects.

  • Andreas Moraitis

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Some time ago you have mentioned that your E-Cats could be powered either by electricity or by gas. Here in Germany the kWh price for electricity is about 4.5 times higher than the kWh price for natural gas. Even if the running costs for a thermal reactor with an electric input and a COP of 6 would be significantly lower than the costs for a conventional gas heating, I suppose with a gas powered system they would be drastically lower. I assume that the gas powered reactors still need some electric input. Can we expect that the amount of electric energy that is consumed by a gas powered E-Cat will be negligible?

    Best regards,
    Andreas Moraitis

  • Andrea Rossi

    Eernie1:
    All the experiments made by us have not given evidence of what you say. I am not informed about experiments that have ( with a minimum of credibility).
    Warm Regards,

  • eernie1

    Andrea, Perhaps another misinterpretation, the electron does not decay, the radioactive nuclei decay. It is called reverse Beta decay and has been observed. The lighter ZN nuclei isotopes emit Beta+(positrons) the heavier nuclei emit Beta-(electrons).The math has been done many times. Have you measured the various types of electrons generated by your process? Beta electrons have narrow spectral signatures, conversion electron spectra are very broad(because of neutrino involvement)electrons created by internal shell movements(upper shell electrons filling the vacancies of the K shell electrons)emit optical photons. Every process involving LENR that has been reported involves the possibility of creating large negative electric fields(electron clusters, negative ions, high voltage discharges)imposed upon outer shell electron configurations. Nano structures allow close approach enhanced by cracks in the lattice structures. This influence exerts itself down to the 1s electrons which are then forced into the nuclei creating the nuclear decay.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven N Karels:
    You are right, as a matter of fact I talked of costs, not market prices.

    Eernie1:
    Electrons do not decay and leptons are conserved. Besides, the mass of neutrinos, even if it is not zero, is evanescent to the point to be unmeasurable.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,
    No doubts, the experiments have priority in the research/developing of working devices, and a theory can come later. Nevertheless, the theory can help in experiments design.

    Dr. Rossi, i just received a Newsletter from Global Alliance For Clean Cook Stoves.
    They want to distribute 100 million Clean Cook Stoves by 2020.
    People are dying every day because they use Charcoal Cook Stoves.
    Plus they cut down all the trees on a Mountain side to make the Charcoal.
    When they have a heavy rain, the mud slides down the Mountain and buries the
    Village and the 5,000 people in it.
    They do not try to recover the bodies, they are already buried.
    Most people are not aware of this problem, but now you are, thanks to me !

    Dr. Rossi, it would be nice if you had an inexpensive E-Cat Cook Stove.
    They spend money on Charcoal every day.
    Maybe you can do this in your spare time !

    Andrea, Perhaps we are talking about two different electron capture mechanisms. I am not discussing a Borghi type capture but a K shell type capture first observed by L. Alvarez in 1937. This capture is considered a method for radioactive elements to allow their decays to proceed. I think a similar mechanism can induce a non radioactive element to also release some of its nuclear energy.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    While the consumable costs of a Nickel-Hydrogen system will be very small, perhaps $0.01/kWh? This does not mean the consumer will see rates at that amount. There are other costs… Look at Hydro-Electric power. Rates are not zero.

    Eernie1:
    Make the equations and you will discover that the lepton conservation law is not respected. ” Electron capture” has never been really observed for this reason: it is a sort of an Arab Phoenix. All the theories based on this effect are groundless. This is my opinion. Ready to change it if experimental evidence of electron capture will be produced.
    Warm regards,

    Andrea, I am puzzled by your reply to New Quark. The neutrino(also a lepton)can assume a variety of energies and can balance any required conservation of energy scheme. A neutrino is often emitted whenever an electron interacts with the nucleus.

    Curiosone:
    Interesting, but I think that small nuclear plants could not have the economy scale necessary to pay all the costs necessary for safety and still be competitive.
    I think this is the core problem.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    NewQuark:
    I am honoured that NASA has taken seriously our work and compete with us: at last, we have a serious Competitor! About their theory, it is wrong: electron capture does not respect the lepton conservation law.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Probably I have still 10- 15 maximum years to live. What counts for me is that this technology gives all it can give, then I will go back to the Universal Spirit with all I got when I have been born: nothing, but light.
    Warm Regards,

    Dr. Rossi, Paul Bennett a PhD candidate thinks you may become the
    Worlds first Trillionaire.

    P.S. I agree with him.
    There are 7 billion people in the World, more then
    2 billion have the Internet.
    Who is not going to want a Unit that will reduce their
    Electric Bill 90% with zero emissions ?
    Suppose you sell 2 billion people a Unit and you only want
    to make $500 profit.
    2 billion X $500 = one Trillion.

    Dear Dr. Rossi, you have written:

    “you got it: ” lavolale, lavolale!””

    I know that this is a kind of joke, but it seems to me that it is connected in some way to China, considering the last events…Am I wrong?

    Working Regard,
    Italo R.
