Single circuits generate nuclear reactions

[Reiyuki]

It is quite possible that the AC system will work better (easier and simpler too) with the type of carbon that is found in batteries, i.e. ultra low resistance.  I am setting up to perform an experiment along those lines.

It might work better for another reason: Resonance.

A big inductor in series with the capacitor and the carbon might 'ring down' like a tesla coil primary if you're lucky.

Yeah, and it might work because of radiant energy reflected off
venus and concentrated by a cloud of swamp gas...

... or you could build it and stop speculating.


I have not done the experiment nor do I see much chance
of doing it soon due to my other experiments, so I can't
give any confirmation of the reality of the effect, I merely
like the Vall?e theory and have been wondering if it does
indeed work for years now, ever since I saw Jean Naudins tests.

I wonder what happened to the self-runner based on this...

Anyway, seems to me continuing to speculate on whether or not
there is actually beta without doing actual experiments is quite
useless.
Build it, test it, if you get seemingly OU readings, post it.
Please.

Bill Alek
just has built a great test device for these tests:

Hopefully Bill will nail down all the effects
as he is very knowledagble about these measurements.

To my mind the lack of any beta radiation from a pulsed carbon rod on its own makes this (Juan's)application of the Vallee theory suspect and we are left in theoretical limbo. It might be right for the thoriated tungsten/carbon method involving an arc because nobody has done a beta test on this yet except Naudin. The conventional view seems to be that  there is no way that conduction electrons can influence nuclear processes in a solid. Conduction electrons diffuse like a gas through a conductor, the inside of a conductor being almost field free. Also all the lower energy bands are filled with electrons effectively screening the nucleus. This is not true for an arc of course which is a plasma.
The carbon/thoriated tungsten and its capacitors form a one turn primary of  the toroidal transfomer and as a carbon arc has negative resistance, with any associated capacitance and inductance it will oscillate. This was used in the so called Poulsen arc oscillator 100 years ago, before the invention of the triode vacuum tube, to generate low frequency RF. Clearly, if the arc is gaining energy through the Vallee process the arc will generate RF power at a frequency determined by the inductance and capacitance of the primary circuit without any other input power. The circuit can be made self oscillating and self sustaining.

I set up a carbon rod ( as used for welding with the copper coating removed) surrounded by a coil wound along the axis of the carbon all mounted in the centre of a toroidal mains transformer with the secondary stripped off. The primary of the toroid is wound with approximately 1400 turns. The set up is closely similar to J.L.Naudin's except no thoriated tungsten is present or spark gap, only a  solid carbon rod 6mm x 58mm between the contacts.
The load across the toroidal winding is 69 ohms.
The coil, co-axial with the carbon rod develops approximately 600 gauss.
The carbon rod is pulsed with with various energies up to 115 joules at 170 volts with a capacitance of 0.008 F.
The pulse with and without the 600 gauss magnetic field in either direction along along the carbon  is measured and the output pulse across the 69 ohms resistor stored in a storage scope.
No significant difference was found in the output pulse height and area against the presence or direction of the magnetic field along the carbon rod for any given input energies up to 115 J so far tested.
