Thanks for sharing your experiment. Nice to see the craters and the Pretzel. Of course Fe in the centre and Carbon in the boundary (refer to diagram in Matsumoto's book on page 91).
Note, we see Fe + O spheres produced in the 'figure of 8' in ULTR (H2O + Al), We also see production of Carbon. Note in this experiment, there is no Mg, K or Cl.
We also see the same crenelated Fe + O microspheres form in NOVA microwave reactor.
In VEGA discharge reactor using brass plates (no Mg, K or Cl) and in discharges between two electrodes and in Hessdalen Ball Lightning impact. Many LENR researchers see production of Fe.
Bockris and Sundarasan produced Fe in Carbon arc discharge experiments in light water ONLY when there was dissolved Oxygen.

If you consider that the surface electron-nucleus macro cluster might cause the matter to form predominantly 4He from whatever goes in, then production of
- Alpha (4He)
- Tri Alpha (12C)
- Quad Alpha (16O)
is not so surprising. Then production of di-neutrons (Matsumoto, Steps to the Discovery of Electro-Nuclear Collapse, p.32) in the collapse of matter can easily lead to the production of 18O with the observed result of bockris.
Production of 2n
2H + 2e- + H > 2n + i2 + p ( reaction 29)
"elements also can be produced by the many-body fusion reactions of the hydrogens in the compressed hydrogen-clusters. For example, Equations (19) / (20) / (21) These elements are sequentially distributed from lithium to around iron." (Matsumoto, Steps to the Discovery of Electro-Nuclear Collapse, p.29-30)
I would suggest repeating the experiment with pure Aluminium as we do in ULTR to see if you still get the pits with the Fe in them. This way you can exclude reactions that consider Mg.
It’s so good to see this posted, the 16 days spent at the hospital because of Covid prevented me to see it in a more timely manner, but I am so glad the work across teams is converging and that there is talk around the very useful Parkhomov’s tables. This is so encouraging!!!!
It is my best guess that the missing mass and energy that occurs during the reaction is caused by quantum mechanical superposition because the energy and transmutation events happen in a coherent system,
Schrödinger's cat: a cat, a flask of poison, and a radioactive source are placed in a sealed box. If an internal monitor (e.g. Geiger counter) detects radioactivity (i.e. a single atom decaying), the flask is shattered, releasing the poison, which kills the cat. The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics implies that, after a while, the cat is simultaneously alive and dead. Yet, when one looks in the box, one sees the cat either alive or dead, not both alive and dead. This poses the question of when exactly quantum superposition ends and reality resolves into one possibility or the other.
When a process that produces energy and matter transformation occurs in a coherent system, the dynamical evolution of the process is not knowable until the system leaves the coherent state. The dynamical evolution of the process will include the energy that is produced and the matter that is converted to energy. Only the final disposition of the system is observable. In the case of the EVO, a small ball of transmuted matter remains after the EVO becomes incoherent. This speaks to a structure inside the EVO that statically stores matter and energy outside of all possible realities such as a singularity.
This production of a ball made of transmuted matter is seen as a reaction product throughout all forms of the Reaction. For example as unlikely as it seems, in SAFIRE, the experimenters found small balls of transmuted matter inside pits in the anode.
Look for polarization in your experimentation. One of the essential characteristics of the Reaction is the development of superconductivity and coherence. This can be detected in experimentation by the appearance of polarization of the light and/or magnetism given off by the Reaction. Like the coherent light produced by a laser, the reaction will produce polarized emissions. This coherence indicates that the Reaction is coherent.
One of indications of coherence was seen in one of Bob Greenyer's experiments that produced bubbles of exploded matter. Around the bubble, a hexagonal pattern of polarized material (aluminum) showed up under irradiation from a polarized light source. The Reaction will produce intense polarized magnetic fields that will leave its coherent polarized impression around the exploding bubble.
In summary, there is a direct connection between the Reaction, superconductivity, and coherence that is a result of the Higgs mode and vacuum decay that are found in Condensed Matter Physics.

Amplitude / Higgs Modes in Condensed Matter Physics
Jurg, you know isotopic analysis is much more complex to do, specially considering the small size of the areas that should be sampled. Where do you think the iron could come from, if it were contamination? I have preliminary data of transmutation from K to Ca merely by ultrasonic treatment, I hope to be able to finish that work some time, when working with solutions is much easier to do elemental and isotopic analysis.
Because he is looking at exchange reactions, whereas, the more energetically favourable reactions are actually direct fusion of 2 x 27Al, which only has one outcome - or cluster collapse which leads directly to Fe and Alpha conjugate nuclei - predominantly C.
The physical evidence of a sphere with carbon periphery and iron core looks like it is fusion and cluster collapse rather than more exchange reactions.
Clusters of electrons as fermions cannot form because of the Pauli Exclusion Principle. These electrons must become bosons in order to form a Bose Einstein condensate. This occurs when electrons and photons of equal energies become entangled. But such a condensate is unstable and will explode in a BoseNova when the size of the cluster reaches a size of between 100 to 200 microns.
"A bosenova or bose supernova is a very small, supernova-like explosion, which can be induced in a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) by changing the external magnetic field, so that the "self-scattering" interaction transitions from repulsive to attractive due to the Feshbach resonance, causing the BEC to "collapse and bounce" or "rebound."[1]
Although the total energy of the explosion is very small, the "collapse and bounce" scenario qualitatively resembles a condensed matter version of a core-collapse supernova, hence the term bosenova."
There are several researchers that talk about cluster collapse.
I think the first would be Matsumoto, who referred to it as Electro-Nuclear Collapse (ENR) - in fact, his book is called "Steps to the Discovery of Electro Nuclear Collapse". This is where a ball lightning structure gets to such an intensity that it self-collapses.
and download the current versions of the 1:1 pdf of his collected works (Up to page 133 now), look at pages 1, 8, 11, 14, 15, 16.. Detail starts on p. 46
Very interesting to you would be page 16
"The second proposal was nuclear incineration of radioactive wastes which were produced from reprocessing plants of spent nuclear fuels (2). There were several kinds of ENRs which could be potentially applied for nuclear incineration. Among them, the most effective could be a method based on ENC. Here the rate of incineration could be expected to be extremely high, because a large bulk of radioactive materials could instantaneously collapse."
Another research group would be S.V.Adamenko et. al. at Proton 21 Labs, he wrote a paper with Vladimir Vysotskii in 2000s referring to the collapse of "Electo-Nuclear Macro Clusters"
"It was also suggested that, during the evolution of this cluster, the process of emission of superheavy neutral nuclear clusters with A > 3000–5000 takes place."
Here we see Vysotskii and Adamenko refer to electron / nucleon clusters which emit neutral (i.e.charge screened) charge clusters as "New kinds of radiation" - AKA - "Strange Radiation"
On page 503, the suggestion is that the "New kinds of radiation" causes transmutation in target screens.
But perhaps the first person to specifically call out the collapse of matter inside a clusters of matter driven by self-organised solitons of electrons forming magnetic charges of two kinds, was Mikhael Solin in his 1992 patent.

Don't forget the obvious fusion of 2 x 27Al which is a more energetically favourable reaction than any given above.

Sometimes it pays to take a break. Ahem, even if your's was not really a voluntary or relaxing one. Great to see you back!
Fascinating, Dr Clarage. I could use some pointers on an a related upcoming experiment, and I covet your input: mhc500a@aol.com

Would be helpful to see the isotope distribution of the Fe produced!
certainly would :)
I do not have instruments for that
Ask Bob for help. the Fe-54/57 fraction would be interesting to know!

I extracted some comments from the patent with regard to self-compression - here is one that I included in my Monopole clutch presentation
“With increasing concentration of magnetic charges in the active medium, the
intensity of the course of nuclear reactions increases spasmodically. This is
achieved by creating conditions for self-compression of the mass of
superconducting nuclear condensate.”
