Matter may become (useful) energy, to produce power in an engine or
destroy as a bomb. How does it happen? This is a simplified explanation:
Two particles orbit each other at an enormous speed. Normally they behave
as one. But when the bond is broken, these particles go their separate ways
and may cause a chain reaction. The invisible energy becomes visible.

The connection with radioactivity (falling space theory)

H. - RADIOACTIVITY
When the nuclei fuse into heavier nuclei in the temperature and pressure of
stars, the nuclei in fusion must have an enormous velocity. That speed
cannot disappear anywhere, its nature only changes. The former velocity
becomes the orbiting speed inside the new larger nucleus. The speed will be
the larger, the heavier element is involved.

The connection with radioactivity is this: we know that the half-life of
radioactive material cannot be affected by any chemical or physical means.
And the internal speeds in nucleus are exactly what those means cannot
affect. But heavy nuclei are not perfect "perpetuum mobiles". For some
reason they eventually leak their energy and begin decaying.

Nuclei can be ball-shaped, longish or consisting of several ball-shaped
clusters. From the decay schemes of radioactive elements we can deduce
something about their nuclear structures.

Ah, there we go! Conservation of speed!!

Why didn't anyone else think of that?

I have been thinking for radioactivity for 25 years, without any idea that
makes sense. Now I have a start, and it sounds promising.

It's always a good idea that you check whether a proposed physical law
works outside the narrow domain you wish to apply it to. For example,
you wish to explain radioactivity with a law that says that speed is
conserved. However, you haven't checked whether that "law" works with,
say, colliding billiard balls or bullets penetrating targets or any of
a number of pedestrian examples first. If it turns out that it doesn't
work in those cases, even though you think it applies to radioactivity,
then the immediate question becomes, "Why there and only there?"

I've given you an idea. Now it's up to you to do some homework, a

But for muon catalyzed fusion this is not true. The presence of the
negative muon greatly reduces the Coulomb barrier to fusion. Indeed, the
problem is often slowing down the nuclei enough so thay can fuse.

Nonsense. One can say this about energy, but not speed. We do not
observe any such "rule" anywhere.

You have an extremely naive view of what makes up a nucleus, one that is
soundly refuted by experiments.

It is _very_much_ better to perform experiments that directly measure
the shape and internal structure of nuclei. There are literally zillions
of such experiments. They completely trump your armchair speculations.

Isn't "kinetic speed" also known as "dynamic speed", and "potential
speed" known as "static speed"? :-)

This illustrates two things:
1. How just "thinking" about things can produce remarkably little
progress.
2. How much time can be spent on fruitless ventures.

But it is symptomatic of what I'll call the "Henry Hill" approach to
doing physics. There is a world of difference between doing physics and
thinking about doing physics. Like music, really doing physics involves
endless practice of basic skills as well as frustrating exercise of
very difficult skills, group work and collaboration, continual training
at the hands of someone better than you, and performance recitals in
front of a judgmental audience. Those who read gee-whiz biographies of
Einstein and Feynman and come away with the impression "Hey, I've got
the time, I can do that," have no real idea how Einstein and Feynman
really worked.

There is no 'cold fusion' inside big stars. (HH)

How about twin paradox, maybe it's better for you to concentrate upon it.

Gee, I don't recall that.
However, you may not get what you want from the interaction. As I've
already indicated to you, ruminating about things is not a productive
way to either learn or do physics, even though it might sound like a
fun hobby to you.

Yes, and we weren't even after him. Just fooling around a bit.
At first it didn't even occur to me to take it on the list because
I assumed that he was joking along. But then, after he wrote
his arrogant responses to you and Tom, I realized he was
dead serious here.

I'm not sure about the bomb, but it usually happens in an
engine when I turn the key located on the steering column.

Also known as throwing a rod through the crankcase when the timimg

Surprisingly, your last statement has been confirmed by doing
just that for the last 75 years. This vast repository of information
has been widely disseminated in the form of journal articles, textbooks
and physics courses during this time. Much of this has been collected
in references like, ``Theoretical Nuclear Physics Volume I: Nuclear
Structure,'' by deShalit and Feshbach and the two volume set, Nuclear
Structure, by Bohr and Mottleson. There even exists a compilation of
nuclear structure data, ``Nuclear Level Schemes,'' containing some
2500 level structures with more than 100,000 levels. Since your so-
called theory of falling space doesn't resemble anything in these
references or any others, you might want to consider rejecting your
idea about studying nuclear decays.

Yes, but 'falling space' can give new tools. I don't explain it better,
because you have not understood a word about what I said. And you are on my
list, remember?

"Denial of evidence that contradicts my theory" is not a new tool. One
could argue that you are a tool, but I will save that for another day.

Fantasy, mental masturbation and ignorance are tools you may keep.
Get back to use when you can calculate something useful and isn't
well known.

Grow up and come to grips with the concept of studying a subject
before offering your opinion to experts.

>And you are on my list, remember?

Am I supposed to care about that for some reason?
