Welcome to ZPEnergy - The Energy of The Future
This is a NEWS PORTAL dedicated to experimental research on REVOLUTIONARY ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES. We propose to you to use this site as THE concentrator of choice for valuable news on the fascinating but still controversial subject of over-unity (O/U) fuel-less energetics (devices tapping the Zero Point Energy (ZPE)/ Vacuum/ Cosmic/ Ambient energy fields) and related. We want to let the general public know that this is an active field and good progress is made towards validating this technology and bringing the first commercial operational device to the market.
"Mighty, sublime, wonderful, as have been the achievements of past science, as yet we are but on the verge of the continents of discovery. Where is the wizard who can tell what lies in the womb of time? Just as our conceptions of many things have been revolutionized in the past, those which we hold to-day of the cosmic processes may have to be remodeled in the future. The men of fifty years hence may laugh at the circumscribed knowledge of the present and shake their wise heads in contemplation of what they will term our crudities, and which we now call progress. Science is ever on the march and what is new to-day will be old to-morrow."
-- Paul Severing, 1910 (from Marvels of Modern Science) |

Reinventing science at Brookhaven National Laboratory
|
|
BY ROBERT P. CREASE
Laboratories, like many cultural institutions, periodically have to
reinvent themselves to stay vital. New discoveries and social needs
constantly threaten to render labs that stick to the same path obsolete.
One
remarkable reinvention is being commemorated on Monday, when Brookhaven
National Laboratory is celebrating the start of construction of a new
energy research facility, the $1 billion National Synchrotron Light
Source II (NSLS-II).

In August 2006 the Irish company Steorn published an advertisement in
the Economist announcing the development of “a technology that produces
free, clean and constant energy”. Qualified experts were sought to form
a “jury” to validate these claims.
Twenty-two independent scientists and engineers were selected by Steorn
to form this jury. It has for the past two years examined evidence
presented by the company.
Note: Proves again the need for an organization such as the proposed Xtreme Science Foundation. [Vlad]

Lead scientists offer hints of vast energy
|
|
 A series of recent
lectures given by some of the UK's leading scientists under the
auspices of the Institute of Physics have all mentioned the fact that
around 75 per cent of equivalent mass of the universe is made up of
"Dark Energy", and that this energy is almost certainly what some call,
"The energy of the vacuum field" or "Zero point energy" and dropping
hints that it is worth investigating further just in case we can use it.

Appeal for top-notch volunteers for the Xtreme Science Foundation project
|
|
Jeane Manning writes: When I was at an alternative energy conference in Maryland recently, a panel discussed how the hydroxy booster community could ensure its ongoing credibility. They proposed standards for the emerging industry that would promote its respectability despite TV shows which disparage a whole field because of one less-reputable person. It reminded me of similar discussions at conferences over the years of groups ranging from Swiss Association for Free Energy, to German Association for Field Energy and so on. Separating wheat from chaff, segregating truth from tall tales. It takes powerful filters to cleanse the free-energy field and eliminate any fraudsters. Such a filter has been proposed, and I’ll get to that in a minute.

By John Tierney
A dispatch from my colleague Dennis Overbye:
As fans of the late, great “Seinfeld,” know, there is a lot to say about nothing.
At the World Science Festival Thursday night, four physicists spent nearly two hours under the jocular and irreverent grilling radio broadcaster John Hockenberry, cohost of “The Takeaway,” and barely scratched the surface of the void that is the background or perhaps the platform of all our experience. They did in the end offer an answer to the question that has plagued philosophers and scientists: Why is there something rather than nothing at all?

The Universe: How Versus Why
|
|
murray writes: I have read here about how the Universe began. But another question is: Why did the Universe begin? Was there in fact a reason for the Universe coming into existence? Was the existence of God a pre-requisit for the existence of the Universe? If so, what reason did God have for creating the Universe?

Steorn 300 - Some Fine Print?
|
|
Magnetic or Electromagnetic? You'd think that by this time in my life I'd have learned to read the fine print...
by creator (libertarian)/ Friday, June 5, 2009
If you've been following the saga of my interactions with Steorn, the Irish company working on a novel "free energy" technology that utilizes permanent magnets, you know that I am quite excited to have been chosen as one of 300 engineering companies to begin studying and developing their Orbo technology.

'Colossal' Magnetic Effect Under Pressure
|
|
 (PhysOrg.com) -- Millions of people today carry around
pocket-sized music players capable of holding thousands of songs,
thanks to the discovery 20 years ago of a phenomenon known as the
“giant magnetoresistance effect,” which made it possible to pack more
data onto smaller and smaller hard drives. Now scientists are on the
trail of another phenomenon, called the “colossal magnetoresistance
effect” (CMR) which is up to a thousand times more powerful and could
trigger another revolution in computing technology.
The structure models for F-type and A-type magnetic ordering in
manganite in response to pressure. The arrows inside orbitals indicate
the spin direction of d electrons.

Let’s get real about alternative energy
|
|
This is an important perspective on alternative energy from David MacKay, a professor of physics at the University of Cambridge:
We need to introduce simple arithmetic into our discussions of energy.
We need to understand how much energy our chosen lifestyles consume, we need to decide where we want that energy to come from, and we need to get on with building energy systems of sufficient size to match our desired consumption. …

HOW MANY SCIENTISTS FABRICATE AND FALSIFY RESEARCH?
|
|
It's a long-standing and crucial question that, as yet, remains
unanswered: just how common is scientific misconduct? In the online,
open-access journal PLoS ONE, Daniele Fanelli of the University
of Edinburgh reports the first meta-analysis of surveys questioning
scientists about their misbehaviours. The results suggest that altering
or making up data is more frequent than previously estimated and might
be particularly high in medical research.

Published May 26, 2009/ Physics 2, 43 (2009)
Small nonequilibrium systems behave quite unexpectedly when in contact with a thermal reservoir. However, all of them—from molecular machines to molecular magnets—are described by a single fluctuation theorem

Is Everything Made of Mini Black Holes?
|
|
 By investigating quantum gravity at the horizons of black holes, a new model suggests that black hole evaporation might appear identical to elementary particle decay. Image credit: Coyne and Cheng.
(PhysOrg.com) -- In trying to understand how gravity behaves on
the quantum scale, physicists have developed a model that has an
interesting implication: mini black holes could be everywhere, and all
particles might be made of various forms of black holes.

Graphene Yields Secrets to Its Extraordinary Properties

 Drawing represents a probe scanning and mapping the atomic contours of
graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb-like
array. Simultaneously applying a magnetic field causes electrons (ball)
to organize in circular orbits, like a dog chasing its tail. Orbits
hold clues to the material’s exotic properties. Credit: Kubista,
Georgia Institute of Technology
(PhysOrg.com) -- Applying innovative measurement techniques,
researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology and the National
Institute of Standards and Technology have directly measured the
unusual energy spectrum of graphene, a technologically promising,
two-dimensional form of carbon that has tantalized and puzzled
scientists since its discovery in 2004.
