3 Introduction - This short document explains the increasingly observed and repeatable phenomena of direct electricity devices, such as that claimed by Andrea Rossi in a particular configuration of his E-Cat X device, using rigorously complete 21 st century physics. - This is intentionally a mostly non technical document; links to the complete theory are provided for those interested and capable. However, it captures the essential discoveries of recent physics as applied to observable unusual energy devices. - Note that the same modern physics has been applied to LENR devices, though that is not the topic of this document. - Further note the wide acceptance, based on readership statistics, of this rigorously correct physics. Data are available at

6 History of unusual energy devices - Since at least Nikola Tesla, at least hundreds of unusual energy devices have been reported; this set includes mechanical, magnetic, and electrical devices - They are unusual because they appear to violate a very fundamental physical law you cannot create either energy or matter from nothing - Many are unsuccessful; some are frauds - But some appear to produce real and reproducible unusual results as defined above they appear to output more energy than is input

7 Examples of real devices - There are current examples of unusual devices that appear real - The most technically interesting devices because of their potential efficiency deliver direct electricity, that is output a current flow with no or minimal input. Examples include: - The commercialized circuits of Alex Hill s ET3M - The imminently shipping devices (O-Cube) from Steorn - The reported direct electricity output configuration of Andrea Rossi s E-Cat X - The Self Charging Inverter (SCI) of Osamu Ide - They share the definition of unusual; however... - They do not violate physical laws even though they are often incorrectly labeled as over unity devices

9 Violating physical laws - The most fundamental physical law that skeptics invoke in denying the validity of these devices is the law of conservation of energy that the total energy in an isolated (my emphasis) system remains constant, that is, energy can neither be created or destroyed in such a system - Skeptics say that unusual devices violate that law and are therefore perpetual motions machines of the first kind - The skeptics are wrong because they do not consider the nature of the isolated system in which the unusual devices operate and that system is spacetime itself which is essentially limitless - In fact these devices operate in a system that has no practical boundaries the only limits are the total energy of spacetime itself

10 Understanding 21 st century physics - The tension between the devices demonstrating unusual performance and the skeptics can be resolved - The resolution lies in an ongoing fundamental redefinition of the laws of physics, adding view points that had not been previously considered - This implies that the laws of mainstream physics are in some sense wrong, but that is not the important point - Rather, current mainstream physics does not use the full capabilities of its acknowledged mathematical foundation to describe the way the physical world works

11 Fully applying physical foundations - The mathematical foundation of modern physics is the differential geometry of Élie Cartan - Most mainstream physicists ignore half of Cartan s geometry a crucial oversight for our purposes - Using the ignored part the torsion component allows a complete, proper description of physical spacetime - With properly done theory, torsion (resonance) connections between local systems and spacetime are allowed, extending the physical limit of local systems. To emphasize, this behavior is in the theory. - And this fully explains the behavior we observe in the unusual devices

12 If you want more of the physics - Review the ECE physics of Myron Evans (post Einsteinian, 21 st century physics) - You can do this at the AIAS site - In its totality, ECE physics is vastly superior to prior physics at explaining the way the physical world works; this is certainly true in that it allows these unusual devices without violating conservation laws - Next is a focus on a specific unusual device, the Ide device, and the remarkable experimental results and conformance to ECE theory

14 The Ide device, replicated and explained - The claim of Osamu Ide is that his SCI device, a modified transformer, outputs more energy than is input; in fact in the current version, no input is required - AIAS colleagues of Myron Evans did two very important things with this circuit: they successfully replicated it, and they explained its behavior with ECE theory - The replication, its explanation, and a further development of an engineering model are detailed in two important papers in the AIAS series: UFT 311, Experimental verification and theoretical explanation of the Osamu Ide, available here: UFT 311 and UFT 321, Circuit theory for unusual inductor behaviour, available here: UFT Note that these papers are very technical, and assume some understanding of differential geometry

15 What the papers say - The essential message of the UFT papers is the Ide device is fully supported by ECE theory, and is therefore a feasible physical device - Further, the unusual output of the Ide circuit is remarkably fully explained by ECE theory, a very rare outcome in science - And still further, UFT 321 will lead to an engineering model for such circuits

17 On the verge of two revolutions - These discoveries, and the theory that explains them, place us on the verge of two historical revolutions: - An ongoing revolution in understanding the way the physical world works due to application of 21 st century ECE physics founded on fully applying Cartan differential geometry to observed phenomena - A related energy revolution in which the potential for both electrical and heat energy becomes essentially unlimited, fully distributed, and at a vanishingly low cost - I think these revolutions are so powerful that they can occur over the course of a generation

21 Technical physics appendix - For those who wish to go deeper, here is a roadmap: - Conservation of energy is expressed through the Hamiltonian (H) of ECE2 special relativity - H is a constant of motion; that is, its value is conserved (retained) while undergoing motion in spacetime

22 Technical physics appendix - For those who wish to go deeper, here is a roadmap: - Conservation of energy is expressed through the Hamiltonian (H) of ECE2 special relativity - H is a constant of motion; that is, its value is conserved (retained) while undergoing motion in spacetime - ECE2 special relativity is special relativity with finite torsion and curvature which enter the Hamiltonian

23 Technical physics appendix - For those who wish to go deeper, here is a roadmap: - Conservation of energy is expressed through the Hamiltonian (H) of ECE2 special relativity - H is a constant of motion; that is, its value is conserved (retained) while undergoing motion in spacetime - ECE2 special relativity is special relativity with finite torsion and curvature which enter the Hamiltonian - The total Hamiltonian is the sum of the Hamiltonian for matter and for the vacuum, H total = H matter + H vacuum

24 Technical physics appendix - For those who wish to go deeper, here is a roadmap: - Conservation of energy is expressed through the Hamiltonian (H) of ECE2 special relativity - H is a constant of motion; that is, its value is conserved (retained) while undergoing motion in spacetime - ECE2 special relativity is special relativity with finite torsion and curvature which enter the Hamiltonian - The total Hamiltonian is the sum of the Hamiltonian for matter and for the vacuum, H total = H matter + H vacuum - H matter and H vacuum can fluctuate and interchange into each other, but H total is always constant for a conservative (well defined) system

26 Technical physics appendix continued - The transfer of H vacuum to H matter is what is meant by the vernacular energy from the vacuum - and clearly violates no law of physics
