The Hong Kong address is just the commercial office, the factory must be somewhere in Shenzhen area, well hidden from our eyes.... :lol: Nevertheless I have found exclusive pictures of the inside of another Polywell manufacturing complex: http://www.polywell-ind.com/page1484.html Emc2 better hurry i...

Well, I am actually in Hong Kong for work right now I might pass to check if under that plastic wrap there is actually a wood WB-D model..... :roll:

Johan's bitterness in respect to the scientific world should be separated from his hypothesis. I can understand his feeling toward scientific institutions, and I also believe that he should change attitude to be able to spread his thoughts better, yet his hypothesis is sound and has a supporter in m...

Not really an overlap, but a point of touch where they only consider the wave nature of the elctron. It would be interesting for Johan to share his toughts on this. Yet it is still a theoretical model so some real data should be collected from a proof of principle proptotype before discussing this i...

My opinion is that they probably know less than what we do.

Re: Cryogenic Thermoelectrics?

Forgive my ignorance of thermoelectric physics, but could a solid-state cryocooler be created using high ZT materials? rcain already gave you quite a complete answer. I can only add this nice comparison chart between different type of cooling devices and advantages/disadvantages of each: http://www...

What I really like of this work is the totally different path they choosed in pursuing the thermoelectric effect in respect to actual research.

Should their model hold during manufacturing we might see the first energetic revolution coming from an unexpected player (at least unexpected for me).

Giant Thermoelectric Effect from Transmission Supernodes

Pretty interesting theoretical model.

Looks like thermoelectric understanding is making some nice interesting leaps.

I am still convinced that N Korea did not make any type of nuclear tests, nor there is any proof or solid evidence that they have enough weapon grade plutonium to make a bomb. Most of the evidences are pointing to a standard explosive test that was "sold" to the rest of the world as a nuclear test. ...

Maybe they are going to bring back clippper class vessels? Green power for the Navy. More likely they will go to pay a nice trip to france to some obscure 50+ member commission to investigate the yet to be opened site of the Iter. You know, private Jet, Limo, fancy hotels, couple of girls for each ...

I'm just more and more worried that they have confused beam-target fusions in the wall/magrid with volumetric fusions. From the few info that Dr. Nebel shared I do not feel this is the case. We need to see proof of isotropic fusions. Just read the history of fusion devices - constant confusions ove...

The reply to that question and many other was partially supposed to come from EMC2 secreted experiments.

I guess we will find out only when they will release some info.

He probably found a place where more more interesting discussions (physics wise) are going on.
Hopefully he will pop up again once he sees something worth to talk about, like the news in this thread.
