For want of a sponsor or potential "licensee," an official "Invention
Disclosure" outlining an unconventional method of forcibly changing
nuclear-decay "half-lives" has been sitting in an office gathering
dust. Although the method uses certain kinds of currently available
though, in some cases, somewhat "exotic" electronic devices (if you
consider SQUIDs, IMPATT devices, or UJTs to be "exotic"), and although
the method is described in sufficient detail in the disclosure to make
it easy to put the "invention" into operation to see if it does what it
is supposed to do, it seems to be going nowhere.
The reasons are (1) the "invention" supposedly has no commercial value
and (2) the "inventor" hasn't turned over to the authorities the basic
equations comprising the theoretical basis for the "invention," one of
which is some kind of non-source-free Klein-Gordon equation.
I don't remember the official disclosure registration number, but I
could find it out easily enough, or else, if someone or some organization
is interested in looking into the possibility of being a "sponsor" or
"licensee," let me know and I'll put you in touch.
A well known university is the current "holder" or "owner" of the "Inven-
tion Disclosure," not me. =-)
(Also, it's not sitting in *my* office, but theirs.)
Thanks,
Carey
