It's fairly obvious from MANY experiments (not just Rossi) that CF doesn't follow the "traditional, well-established equations for this nuclear reaction". And since I've not seen any information on what the gamma spectrum of the E-Cat looks like as far as gamma energy, I know darned well you have no way to tell whether "the amount of lead shielding he claims is totally inadequate to stop those gamma rays". Rossi says "weak gammas" on the same energy order as x-rays., which don't take a gigantic amount of shielding.
Note....part of my grad school background is in nuclear science, so I have actually done shielding calculations (one of my courses was "Introduction to Nuclear Engineering", which had a section of shielding design and calculations), and know what is involved.
It's fairly obvious from MANY experiments (not just Rossi) that CF doesn't follow the "traditional, well-established equations for this nuclear reaction"In that case, we have no idea what Rossi's device will or won't do. It could blow up and take the city of Bologna with it. It certainly wouldn't be acceptable for Rossi to be selling them to the public.
Rossi says "weak gammas" on the same energy order as x-rays., which don't take a gigantic amount of shielding.How would Rossi know? You've already stated that we have to throw away current theory (which you have repeatedly stated is "useless") to believe Rossi, so you can't use current theory to justify any other part of Rossi's device.
And, there again is that phrase "Rossi says". It's amazing how little there is to this story once you remove the parts that rely on "Rossi says".
