APEC 11/23: Frame-Dragging, Bubble Fusion & Warp-Drives

Lance Williams presents on frame-dragging & gravitational coupling, Max Fomitchev-Zamilov discusses experimental Bubble fusion (sonofusion) research, Greg Hodgin discusses the ZC Institute & lab network, and Eric Reiter presents an overview of the Threshold Model (Part 2). We’ll also be hearing updates from our lab partners and finishing off the event with an open discussion by conference attendees!

12:00pm PT – Lance Williams – Frame Dragging & Gravitational Coupling

There is a drag force on objects moving in the background cosmological metric, known from galaxy cluster dynamics. The drag force can be understood as inductive rectilinear frame dragging. Unlike the Kerr metric or other typical frame-dragging geometries, cosmological inductive dragging occurs at uniform velocity, along the direction of motion, and dissipates energy. Proposed gravito-magnetic invariants formed from contractions of the Riemann tensor do not appear to capture inductive dragging effects, and this might be the first identification of inductive rectilinear dragging.

1:00pm PT – Max Fomitchev-Zamilov – Microscopic Thermonuclear Fusion

Max will be discussing his experimentation with acoustically-driven fusion reactions and the observation of neutron emission coincident with acoustic cavitation of deuterated titanium powder suspended in mineral oil. The resulting neutron emission was detected using an assembly of Helium-3 proportional neutron counters. The peak neutron count rate was in excess of 6500 CPM, more than 10,000 times in excess of background. The observed neutron emission was coincident with the application of acoustic influence.

2:00pm PT – Greg Hodgin – The ZC Institute & Lab Network

Dr. Greg Hodgin is the founder of the Zero-Carbon (formerly Zephram-Cochran) Institute, an innovative startup incubator supporting a growing list of innovative experimental research at various universities, government labs, and other reputable venues. Hodgin will provide an overview of ZC’s recent accomplishments, future goals, and the prospect of future breakthroughs by his lab network colleagues.

3:00pm PT –Eric Reiter – A Serious Challenge to Quantum Mechanics (Part 2)

Eric’s Threshold Model experiments attempt to refute key tenets of quantum mechanics. In Part 2 of his discussion on this theoretical model, he will will discuss experimental results supporting his theory, including beam-splitting experiments with gamma-rays and alpha-rays that may provide an understanding of matter and energy that is free from quantum mechanical wave-particle weirdness.

4:00pm PT – Lab Partners – Experimental Research Updates

Learn about hands-on engineering & technical research on advanced propulsion experiments by our lab partners. Mark Sokol & the Falcon Space team will describe recent work on NMR / EPR gravity-modification experiments, Jarod Yates & Charles Crawford will provide updates on the Graviflyer, Bryan St. Clair will discuss research being done into new inertial propulsion experiments, and other labs are anticipated to share updates as well during this time.

5:00pm PT – Open Discussion & Ad-Hoc Presentations

Conference guests interested in presenting experimental info to the group are invited to participate at this time, and our presenters will be available to take questions & discuss experiments.
