solar x-ray influence on my AG-cell

[Dinorben]

Hi all,
The cell also increases the voltage under load condition meaning the initial voltage drops after connection a 50 ohm resistor as load down to 0.525 Volt ( 11 mA)within a few hours and then the voltage increases up to 0.720 Volt ( 14mA) and stay there for more then 48 hours now and counting. the Voltage is changing for around 0.050 to 0.084Volt in droping and rising.

Hi Walt

Probably a silly question but have you definitely ruled out temperature as the cause of your voltage fluctuations? Electrochemcal potential is slightly temperature dependent and the resistance of your load will vary quite a lot as its temperature goes up and down.

Just a thought...

Hi dinorben,
yes the temperature is ruled out, because the rooms where the tests conducted are air condition with a tolerance of +/- 2 degree F, and the cell temperature are measured too and there is no change  they dont heat up in anyway.
independent test have shown world wide from the US ( different areas), germany ( different areas) Finland, Hong Kong, Australia, and South Africa, pretty much everywhere the same results even under different set ups in regards to the load.
I also have to point out, that this reaction increase of the voltage under load is only shown on AG-cells where my special graphite poly mix powder is used, it does not show with the cylindrical experiemnetal cells.

Hi bruce
I dont know but just as a sample the IAEA-MEL's Underground Laboratory for the analysis of Radionuclides in the enviroment at very low levels are shieldet with lead to protect against cosmic radiation.
see link    http://www.iaea.org/monaco/highlights.html
for me as not an expert in this field I believe that a lead shielding should be enough at least for this proof of mine in regards to my AG-cells and the influence of cosmic rays on them.

I think we can safely rule out nutrino interaction.  From what I understand, even the earth does not shield nutrinos adequately due to their size.  If that is indeed the case, the only fluctuation in nutrino density would be the distance from the sun as the earth rotates, which on scale with the distance to the sun is negligable.  In other words one wouldn't have a day/night fluctuation, it would be more annual, with the eliptic of our orbit.  If the problem is ionization then would a lead shielded vacuum chamber help? 

I think lead should for your purposes also elimiate radiation in the conventional sense as well...xrays, etc.   I have one other option that is more ephemeral than anything else that we have postulated yet.  Scalar waves. 

I have read that scalar waves have been detected within the confines of a faraday cage.  EM where there should be none.  The hypothesis is that there is a transmitting body at a point in space that the earth can at least partially shield.  Then as the earth rotates on its axis you have a field strength at a location that follows a daily sine pattern.  Here is the test for that.  Place both your cell and a scalar antenna in lead boxes.  Monitor the field strength of the output and compare it to the V_out of your cell.  Like I said a little more 'out there' than we have yet gone, but as Sir Doyle said through the voice of Mr. Holmes: After you have eliminated all other possibilities, that which remains, however improbable, must be."

hi kysmet,
thats a interesting idea but the size of my lead box whould not allow to put two cells and a scalar antenna in there , like I sayd I am not an expert in this field and it whould be to much effort for me.
But thanks anyway.
