ABSTRACT
|
||
|
||
The hypothesis for tapping the zero-point energy (ZPE) arises by
|
||
combining the theories of the ZPE with the theories of system self-
|
||
organization. The vacuum polarization of atomic nuclei might allow
|
||
their synchronous motion to activate a ZPE coherence.
|
||
|
||
Experimentally observed plasma ion-acoustic anomalies as well as
|
||
inventions utilizing cycloid ion motions may offer supporting
|
||
evidence. The suggested experiment of rapidly circulating a charged
|
||
plasma in a vortex ring might induce a sufficient zero-point energy
|
||
interaction to manifest a gravitational anomaly. An invention
|
||
utilizing abrupt E field rotation to create virtual charge exhibits
|
||
excessive energy output.

INTRODUCTION
|
||
|
||
Today's physics might allow the possibility of tapping virtually
|
||
limitless quantities of energy directly from the fabric of space.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Page 1
|
||
|
||
Such a surprising conjecture arises by merging two separate
|
||
theoretical areas of modern physics:
|
||
|
||
1) The theories of the zero-point energy (1-5) (ZPE) that model
|
||
the vacuum as containing real, energetic fluctuations of
|
||
electric field energy, and
|
||
2) the theories of system self-organization (6-13) which not
|
||
only open the possibility of inducing coherence in this
|
||
energy, but also provide the underlying principles on how
|
||
this could be achieved (10).
|
||
|
||
At first this hpyothesis might seem to be a blatant violation of the
|
||
conservation of energy. But the key question is:
|
||
|
||
Does the zero-point energy REALLY exist?
|
||
|
||
If so, a real energy is already present and its conservation would
|
||
not be an issue.
|
||
|
||
The real issue centers on how random fluctuations could become
|
||
coherent. Any spontaneous coherence seems to violate the second law
|
||
of thermodynamics, which is generally understood to mean systems
|
||
should evolve toward random behavior, not toward coherence.
|
||
|
||
This point is thoroughly discussed in the theories of system self-
|
||
organization (11,12). Prigogine (13) won the 1977 Nobel prize in
|
||
chemistry for defining the conditions under which a system could
|
||
evolve from randomness toward coherence. The conditions are that
|
||
the system must be
|
||
|
||
1) far from equilibrium,
|
||
2) nonlinear in its dynamics and
|
||
3) have an energy flux through it.
|
||
|
||
These conditions are expressed in general system theory terms, and
|
||
it turns out that the already published theories of the ZPE can,
|
||
under certain circumstances, fulfill these conditions.
|
||
|
||
Despite the intriguing possibility offered by system theory, no
|
||
purely theoretical discussion could ever prove that the zero-point
|
||
energy could be tapped as an energy source. Only an experiment
|
||
coupled with the theory would be convincing.
|
||
|
||
This article discusses how observed anomalies associated with the
|
||
ion-acoustic oscillations in plasmas could be a manifestation of a
|
||
coherent ZPE interaction and in particular, how the cycloid motion
|
||
of a a plasma's nuclei might induce a sufficient ZPE coherence to
|
||
manifest a gravitational anomaly.
|
||
|
||
This article also highlights an invention which utilizes the abrupt
|
||
rotation of electric fields to cause an hypothesized pair production
|
||
of virtual charges from the vacuum energy across a macroscopic
|
||
system. The invention reportedly outputs excessive power while free
|
||
running. The invention reportedly outputs excessive power while
|
||
free running, and its full disclosure may constitute an experiment
|
||
which could be repeated by the scientific community.

THE FABRIC OF SPACE
|
||
|
||
Does the fabric of empty space really contain a plenum of energy?
|
||
This question has been debated throughout the history of science.
|
||
|
||
The early scientists through the 19th century believed in the
|
||
existence of an ether, which was modeled as a material substance
|
||
that could support the wave propagation of light.
|
||
|
||
The famous Michelson-Morley experiment failed to detect the expected
|
||
ether wind produced by the earth's motion through it. At the turn
|
||
of the cnetury Einstein used this result to support the theory of
|
||
special relativity. When this became accepted, the scientific
|
||
community rejected the existence of the ether. Thus classical
|
||
physicists came to consider the vacuum of space to be truly empty.
|
||
|
||
The classical model was only to last until the 1930's when quantum
|
||
mechanics became accepted. From quantum mechanics arose a
|
||
mathematical term in the description of the ground state of any
|
||
oscillating system called the zero-point energy.
|
||
|
||
The term "zero-point" refers to zero degrees Kelvin which means this
|
||
energy exists even in the absence of all heat. The energy was
|
||
interpreted as being INHERENT TO THE FABRIC OF SPACE ITSELF.
|
||
|
||
Dirac (14) showed how electron-positron pair production could arise
|
||
from the vacuum fluctuations and quantum electrodynamics was born.
|
||
|
||
The Heisenberg uncertaintly principle allowed quantum mechanical
|
||
systems to "borrow" this energy for short periods of time. The
|
||
ether came back into science not modeled as a material substance but
|
||
rather as a randomly fluctuating energy.
|
||
|
||
Could a space filled with fluctuations of electric flux be
|
||
consistent with special relativity? Boyer (15) showed that, by
|
||
invoking the postulate of Lorentz invariance, the spectral energy
|
||
density p of the zero-point fluctuations must have the particular
|
||
form as a function of frequency w :
|
||
|
||
3
|
||
p(w) = kw
|
||
|
||
where the constant k is related to Planck's constant. This result
|
||
gives a quantitative basis to the theory of random electrodynamics
|
||
which strives to show that quantum mechanical effects arise FROM
|
||
MATTER'S INTERACTION WITH THE ZERO-POINT ENERGY.
|
||
|
||
This cubic frequency relation implies an absurd result:
|
||
|
||
the energy density of the ZPE
|
||
AT EACH POINT IN SPACE is INFINITE!
|
||
|
||
A similar problem plagues quantum electrodynamics where infinities
|
||
are renormalized away. Some type of frequency cutoff is required to
|
||
create a finite, quantitative theory.
|
||
|
||
Wheeler (16) applied the theory of general relativity to the ZPE to
|
||
create a natural cutoff in his theory of geometrodynamics. In
|
||
general relativity the fabric of space curves as a function of
|
||
|
||
Page 3
|
||
|
||
energy density.
|
||
|
||
When the density becomes sufficiently great, space pinches like it's
|
||
forming a black hole. This gives rise to the formation of
|
||
hyperspace structures that Wheeler called "wormholes."
|
||
|
||
His calculation yielded microscopic channels on the order of 10-33
|
||
(to the -33rd) cm having a (mass equivalent) energy density of 10+94
|
||
(to the 94th) grams/cm3 (cubed).
|
||
|
||
The resulting view is that the fabric of space consists of
|
||
constantly forming and annihilating pairs of microscopic "mini"
|
||
blackholes and whiteholes which channel electric flux into and out
|
||
of our three dimensional space.
|
||
|
||
These mini holes manifest dynamics which could be modeled as a
|
||
turbulent, virtual plasma that Wheeler calls the "quantum foam." In
|
||
this view the elementary particles are like bubbles or vortices
|
||
arising from the dynamics of the vacuum energy.
|
||
|
||
Is it possible to tap this energy? At first the answer seems to be
|
||
no since it is extermely difficult experimentally to observe its
|
||
existence; the energy is ubiquitous and a detector REQUIRES AN
|
||
ENERGY DIFFERENCE to measure field strength.
|
||
|
||
However, the theories of quantum electrodynamics indicate that all
|
||
the elementary particles are dynamically interacting with the ZPE
|
||
resulting in vacuum polarization. In particular, quantum
|
||
electrodynamics shows that the different elementary particles
|
||
polarize the vacuum differently (17-19).
|
||
|
||
In a first order model, electrons, especially conduction band
|
||
electrons, exhibit an ethereal cloud-like random interaction with
|
||
the zero-point fluctuations and are effectively in thermodynamic
|
||
equilibrium with it. No net energy would be absorbed by this type
|
||
of system.
|
||
|
||
However, an atomic nucleus exhibits a pattern of quasi-stable vacuum
|
||
polarization channels converging toward it. This may allow the
|
||
possibility of driving the nucleus-ZPE system off of equilibrium by
|
||
abrupt motion. This fulfills the first condition for system self-
|
||
organization.
|
||
|
||
How the other conditions could be fulfilled as well can be
|
||
understood by modeling the ZPE as a virtual plasma. Like a plasma,
|
||
it is nonlinear in its dynamical behavior, it may be driven off of
|
||
equilibrium by the abrupt motion of nuclei, and it might well be
|
||
sustained by an energy flux intersecting our three dimensional space
|
||
from a higher dimensional superspace (20-22).
|
||
|
||
This last point is clearly the most speculative. If true, it offers
|
||
VIRTUALLY LIMITLESS ENERGY.
|
||
|
||
It can best be supported by noting that there are interpretations of
|
||
quantum mechanics and relativity theory which imply the existence of
|
||
a physically real, higher dimensional space, and the notion of
|
||
superspace is well discussed in the physics literature (23-25).
|
||
|
||
It is interesting to note that some authors (26,27) recognized that
|
||
|
||
Page 4
|
||
|
||
the mathematical analysis of a nonlinear system interacting with the
|
||
ZPE shows that energy could be extracted, but they are skeptical due
|
||
to the lack of experimental evidence.
|
||
|
||
ION-ACOUSTIC OSCILLATIONS
|
||
|
||
The real proof that the zero-point energy could become an energy
|
||
source can only come from a repeatable experiment. The above
|
||
discussion suggests that the motion of a plasma's nuclei might be an
|
||
effective transducer for interacting with the ZPE.
|
||
|
||
The coherent oscillations of nuclei in a plasma is known as the ion-
|
||
acoustic mode, and it has been associated with anomalous plasma
|
||
behavior including run-away electrons (28), anomalous heating (29-
|
||
31), anomalous resistance (32), and high frequency voltage spikes
|
||
(33-35).
|
||
|
||
Could these anomalies be associated with a direct ZPE interaction
|
||
manifesting a macroscopic vacuum polarization (36)?
|
||
|
||
The inventor T. Henry Moray (37) stressed the importance of ion
|
||
oscillations in the plasma tubes of his invention that produced 50
|
||
kilowatts of anomalous electrical power in the 1930's. His well-
|
||
witnessed invention could not be explained with the physics of that
|
||
time, and puzzled all the scientists who investigated his device.
|
||
|
||
Another experiment where coherent oscillations of nuclei could be
|
||
the source of anomalous heat is the electrolytic "cold fusion"
|
||
experiment of Pons and Fleischmann (38).
|
||
|
||
In this experiment deuterium nuclei occupy shallow potential wells
|
||
in the crystal lattice sites of the palladium. Here the nuclei are
|
||
free to oscillate (39), but they generally diffuse to adjacent,
|
||
vacant lattice sites (40).
|
||
|
||
However, under the conditions of deuterium supersaturation all the
|
||
lattice sites are occupied, and the deuterons within a crystal grain
|
||
of palladium could then undergo synchronous oscillations similar to
|
||
ion-acoustic heat (41). This hypothesis predicts the effect would
|
||
be greatly enhanced by supersaturating a pure single crystal of
|
||
palladium and that an electrical pulse could trigger the
|
||
oscillation.
|
||
|
||
It might also be possible to generate anomalous heat with
|
||
experiments using ordinary water (although it is more difficult to
|
||
constrain protons to the lattice sites than deuterons). The
|
||
difficulty in repeating the heat anomaly of the Pons/Fleischmann
|
||
experiment is probably the first repeatable experiment in which at
|
||
least some other scientists are able to produce an energy anomaly
|
||
(42).
|
||
|
||
PLASMA SPIRALS
|
||
|
||
Other investigators have claimed energy anomalies associated with
|
||
plasma behavior. The Russian plasma physicist, Chernetskii, from
|
||
his observations of anomalous energetic plasma activity explains
|
||
that under appropriate conditions a plasma interacts directly with
|
||
the ZPE (43).
|
||
|
||
|
||
Page 5
|
||
|
||
He has recently claimed to have created a plasma device that absorbs
|
||
energy from the vacuum fluctuations when the plasma's particles
|
||
undergo cycloid motion (43).
|
||
|
||
Likewise the inventions of Searle (44), Spence (45), and Papp (46)
|
||
also have cycloid particle motion in the plasmas within their energy
|
||
producing devices.
|
||
|
||
Ball lighting (47) is a possible candidate for a ZPE interaction
|
||
since it has been modeled as a vortex ring plasmoid (48). The
|
||
energy source needed to maintain its persistence must be localized
|
||
within the ball since it has been observed inside of shielded
|
||
environments such as aircraft and submarines.
|
||
|
||
In a submarine a particular type of circuit breaker has launched it
|
||
on multiple occasions (49). The vortex ring model for ball
|
||
lightning has its plasma particles undergoing precessional cycloid
|
||
motion, and it might therefore be an example of a zero-point energy
|
||
coherence occurring in nature.
|
||
|
||
It may also be possible to induce the cycloid motion of nuclei
|
||
within solid state magnetic materials such as ferrites. When a
|
||
ferrite's magnetic domain wall moves, the microscopic magnetic
|
||
dipoles rotate (50). This supports the propagation of nonlinear
|
||
spinor waves through the ferrite (51). This wave directly couples
|
||
to the ferrite lattice causing an elastic, acoustical spinor wave
|
||
(52). This results in the helical motion of the ferrite's nuclei.
|
||
|
||
If such motion induces a zero-point energy coherence, then nearby
|
||
pickup coils might detect anomalous energy. Such a hypothesis may
|
||
help explain the "free energy" inventions of Coler (53) and Sweet
|
||
(54).
|
||
|
||
The plasma vortex-ZPE hypothesis could also be applied to the water
|
||
vortex studies of Schauberger (55). He claimed that water forced to
|
||
precess through specially shaped spiralling tubes induced an energy
|
||
anomaly causing a peculiar bluish glow to appear at the center of
|
||
the vortex.
|
||
|
||
Also the gyroscope studies by Laithwaite (56) may fit the vortex
|
||
hypothesis. Laithwaite observed that a precessing gyroscope that
|
||
was displaced along a particular cycloid path would exhibit an
|
||
inertial/gravitational anomaly.
|
||
|
||
GRAVITATIONAL ANOMALIES
|
||
|
||
The expectation of gravitational anomalies associated with coherence
|
||
of the zero-point energy arises directly from general relativity.
|
||
|
||
Gravity is described as curvature of the space-time metric induced
|
||
by the stress-energy tensor (57). If the zero-point energy has the
|
||
enormous density as predicted by Wheeler, then even a slight
|
||
coherence in its activity could curve the local space-time metric
|
||
producing measurable gravitational or time anomalies.
|
||
|
||
An experiment which altered the pace of time near the apparatus
|
||
would suggest the ZPE's involvement (58). Puthoff (59) has recently
|
||
quantitatively explored Sakarov's suggestion that gravity is
|
||
intimately coupled to the behavior of the ZPE by proposing a model
|
||
|
||
Page 6
|
||
|
||
in which gravity directly arises from the action of the zero-point
|
||
fluctuations.
|
||
|
||
An experiment which produced a gravitational or time anomaly would
|
||
yield evidence that the ZPE is being cohered because the ZPE is the
|
||
only energy appreciable enough to induce a space-time metric
|
||
curvature by technological means.
|
||
|
||
How could such an anomaly be demonstrated experimentally? The ideas
|
||
presented in this paper suggest the following preliminary
|
||
experiment:
|
||
|
||
A piping system is shaped into a vortex ring (Figure 1) whose
|
||
poloidal/toroidal size ratio is similar to the plasmoids observed
|
||
by Bostick (60) in his experiments.
|
||
|
||
Charged fluid or plasma is pumped to circulate rapidly through the
|
||
vortex ring. Note that the plasma is forced to undergo an
|
||
effective precessional motion (a poloidal rotation closing into a
|
||
toroidal rotation).
|
||
|
||
A weight change in the apparatus or a change in the pace of time
|
||
nearby the apparatus would support the proposed conjecture that an
|
||
ionic plasma vortex could induce a ZPE coherence.
|
||
|
||
(since we cannot duplicate the drawing in this file,
|
||
Figure 1 shows a donut shape viewed from the top and
|
||
generated by loops as if a Slinky toy was connected end to
|
||
end "Vortex ring mainfesting precessional flow")
|
||
|
||
An oscillatory ion-acoustic plasma vortex ring can be created with
|
||
an electrical circuit. A toroidal coil is wound on a ferrite core
|
||
with wire whose insulator is coated with a mildly radioactive
|
||
material.
|
||
|
||
Alternatively the coil could be bombarded by ionizing radiation
|
||
(61). The radiation only needs to be strong enough to ionize the
|
||
air or gas near the surface of the toroidal coil, and it maintains a
|
||
cold plasma.
|
||
|
||
The coil is then tuned to resonate at the ion-acoustic frequency of
|
||
this plasma by adding an appropriate capacitance to the circuit. A
|
||
properly tuned resonance yields ion oscillatory displacement
|
||
currents in the medium surrounding the wire which acts as a wave
|
||
guide.
|
||
|
||
During resonance further ionization could accrue shifting the ion-
|
||
acoustic frequency. This nonlinear effect can be stabilized with a
|
||
parallel, variable capacitor controlled via feedback by the
|
||
magnitude of the output current.
|
||
|
||
The capacitance is automatically adjusted to maximize the output
|
||
current unless it becomes too large at which point the system is
|
||
intentionally detuned. If the ion-acoustic plasma vortex were to
|
||
interact coherently with the ZPE, then anomalous energy production
|
||
might occur in such a system.

|
||
MACROSCOPIC PAIR PRODUCTION
|
||
|
||
The plasma vortex ring motif can be applied directly to the virtual
|
||
ZPE plasma to create a model of an elementary charge. Bostick
|
||
showed that a pair of plasmoid vortex rings could arise from an
|
||
abruptly excited, turbulent plasma (60).
|
||
|
||
In a similar fashion could electron-positron pair production arise
|
||
as vortex rings from the ZPE modeled as a virtual plasma? In this
|
||
analogy the charge would be associated with the helicity of the
|
||
electric flux circulation on the vortex ring (62,63).
|
||
|
||
Likewise the electric (E) field lines emanating from a charge could
|
||
be modeled as helical filaments (64). Here the helical filaments
|
||
would originate from the charge and be sustained continuously by
|
||
electric flux flowing at the speed of light. This model of E field
|
||
lines offers a dynamic possibility for activating the vacuum energy.
|
||
|
||
If an E field line alone could be abruptly rotated, it would mimic
|
||
the precessional flow of a vortex ring section (Figure 2) and
|
||
consequently would manifest for an instant virtual charge at a
|
||
macroscopic level. This would constitute a coherence in the zero-
|
||
point energy.
|
||
|
||
(Figure 2 shows a 1 quarter section of the doughnut shape as
|
||
described in Figure 1 "Vortex filament model of abruptly
|
||
rotated E field line")
|
||
|
||
An experiment in which E field lines are abruptly rotated might
|
||
yield excessive energy from the resulting voltage transients.
|
||
|
||
Such an experiment has already been done, and its description is
|
||
essentially the invention by Hyde (65). Hyde uses rapidly spinning
|
||
segmented rotors to abruptly cut E field lines, and his invention is
|
||
reported to output power TEN TIMES THE INPUT!
|
||
|
||
The invention consists of a pair of excitor plates, a pair of
|
||
segmented rotors and a pair of segmented stators (Figure 3). Charge
|
||
is free to migrate on the conductive surfaces comprising the rotors
|
||
and excitor plates, but on the stators the adjacent, conductive
|
||
segments are electrically insulated from each other.
|
||
|
||
(Figure 3 consists of 3 parts, the first shows a simple circle
|
||
labelled EXCITOR PLATE, the second shows a disk segmented into
|
||
3 section similar to the symbol for atomic hazard and labelled
|
||
SEGMENTED ROTOR and the third shows a circle sectioned into 6
|
||
areas much like a pie chard evenly divided into 6 sections, it
|
||
is labelled SEGMENTED STATOR "Simplified version of excitor,
|

|
||
An external voltage source charges the excitor plates which provide
|
||
an electrostatic polarization field. Insulation on the device's
|
||
negatively charged surfaces insures that no current leaks from the
|
||
excitor plates and little power is drwan from the charging voltage
|
||
source.
|
||
|
||
The rotors are electrically connected to each other through a
|
||
conductive shaft which is spun by an electric motor (not shown).
|
||
|
||
The rotors in the patent description were electrically connected by
|
||
brushes to their adjacent stators, but Hyde has since improved his
|
||
invention by removing these contacts (66). The field from the
|
||
excitor plates induces a polarization between the connected rotors.
|
||
|
||
The segments on both rotors are aligned to allow them to shield an
|
||
aligned pair of stator segments. As the rotor spins, aligned stator
|
||
segments are ALTERNATELY EXPOSED and SHEILDED from the excitor
|
||
polarization field.
|
||
|
||
Each stator segment is electrically connected to its counterpart on
|
||
the other stator through a PULSE RECTIFIER CIRCUIT in which the
|
||
transient voltage pulses are stepped down and then channeled to a
|
||
combining rectifier output circuit (not shown).
|
||
|
||
It is a surprise that such a simple device as Hyde's could output
|
||
anomalous power. An analysis using just classical physics would
|
||
predict that the voltage induced across a stator segment pair would
|
||
swing between zero and the excitor plate voltage since this is the
|
||
steady state limit for the shielded and exposed conditions.
|
||
This is observed when the rotor is spun slowly.
|
||
|
||
However, when the rotor is spun on the order of 6000 rpm, a 3 KV
|
||
potential across the excitor plates yields stator pulses in excess
|
||
of 300 KV with a very small drag on the rotor (67).

How the ZPE could be cohered by the abrupt field cutting from the
|
||
rotors is illustrated in the top view sequence in Figure 5.

Figure 5. Abrupt E field cuting sequence (top view)
|
||
|
||
During the exposed condition, current flows to charge the stator
|
||
segment pair. Under rapid spin, the rotor blade cuts through the
|
||
gap quicker than the charge can leave the stator segment due to the
|
||
current's momentum from residual inductance of the connecting
|
||
circuit.
|
||
|
||
The charge remains on the stator segment during the instant its E
|
||
field lines are cut resulting in their abrupt rotation. If such an
|
||
abrupt rotation of E field lines manifests virtual charge from the
|
||
vacuum energy, then this charge would greatly augment the potential
|
||
across the stator segment pairs and yield a more vigourous voltage
|
||
transient.
|
||
|
||
Note that opposite virtual charge is created simultaneously on the
|
||
outer surfaces of the connected stator segments. Quantum
|
||
electrodynamics allows virtual charge pair production from the ZPE
|
||
|
||
Page 10
|
||
|
||
as long as charge is conserved. This analysis of Hyde's invention
|
||
suggests virtual charge pair production in the macroscopic realm.
|
||
|
||
The resulting transient zero-point energy coherence accelerates the
|
||
charges of the stator segment circuit, and the system outputs
|
||
anomalously excessive energy.
|
||
|
||
SUMMARY
|
||
|
||
Applying the principles of system self-organization to the theories
|
||
of the zero-point energy suggests that an appropriate system might
|
||
be able to induce a coherence in the action of the zero-point
|
||
energy.
|
||
|
||
Quantum electrodynamics shows that the ZPE intimately interacts with
|
||
the various elementary particles with differing vacuum polarization
|
||
dynamics. The vacuum polarization description of atomic nuclei
|
||
suggests that abrupt, synchronous motion of ions or nuclei may be a
|
||
good candidate for coherent vacuum energy activation.
|
||
|
||
The observed anomalies associated with the ion-acoustic oscillations
|
||
of a plasma might be evidence for this. Further circumstantial
|
||
evidence may arise from the claims of different investigators and
|
||
inventors whose devices exhibit a common modus operandi: They
|
||
utilize coherent, synchronous motion of ions or nuclei.
|
||
|
||
The largest claims are associated with devices that produce cycloid
|
||
or precessional motion of nuclei. This leads to the hypothesis that
|
||
a POSITIVELY CHARGED PLASMA VORTEX MIGHT INDUCE A ZPE COHERENCE.
|
||
|
||
The idea can be experimentally explored by rapidly circulating a
|
||
charged plasma or fluid through a vortex ring piping system and
|
||
looking for a gravitational or time variation since there is a
|
||
recognized theorectical connection between gravity and the action of
|
||
the zero-point energy.
|
||
|
||
Since vortex ring plasmoid pair production is observed in turbulent
|
||
plasmas, modeling the ZPE as a turbulent, virtual plasma supports
|
||
the vortex ring model for elementary charge and the vortex filament
|
||
model for electric field lines.
|
||
|
||
Such a model predicts that the abrupt rotation of electric field
|
||
lines would manifest virtual charge from the vacuum energy.
|
||
|
||
Experimental support that macroscopic, virtual charge pair
|
||
production might provide energy directly from the ZPE arises from
|
||
Hyde's fully disclosed invention. It appears imperative that Hyde's
|
||
invention be replicated, for only a repeating experiment could prove
|
||
that it is possible to tap the zero-point energy as an energy
|
||
source.
