    Chernetsky Plasma Generator - Hal Puthoff's Comments
    Posted on Tuesday, June 01, 2004 @ 23:13:55 GMT by vlad

    Devices Hal Puthoff writes : The Chernetsky Plasma Generator

    In the late '80s or early '90s we saw a Russian press release from Novosti concerning a device built and tested by Chernetskii that was claimed to extract energy from "empty space" (the vacuum). This attracted our interest since some of our own research effort was along similar lines.


    Given the credentials of Chernetskii as an apparently competent plasma physicist, I arranged to visit Moscow to see his device in operation for myself. Chernetskii was very cordial and enthusiastic about demonstrating his device. It was an arc discharge device operating in a relaxation oscillator breakdown mode, and looked impressive in that it appeared that, without an increase of power from the power line, output power to a light bulb load increased when the desired arc-discharge operating mode was triggered. His opinion was that the arc discharge caused transient breakdown of the vacuum with a corollary release of vacuum energy.

    To make a long story shorter, he provided me a complete book on his device development and experimentation, with all the details necessary to replicate his experiments. I had the book translated, and in my lab (EarthTech International, Inc. - - see www.earthtech.org) we began a lengthy series of replication experiments over several months (many gases at different pressures, many arc discharge conditions) and made measurements using sophisticated energy/power measurement apparatus.

    In the end it appeared from our measurements that his measurements might be flawed, in that our replication device reproduced the phenomena that led him to believe that he had anomalous energy generation, but our instrumentation indicated that this was not the case. (Difficult measurements to make because of pulse-mode operation with highly noisy spike phenomena, and requiring the expensive, sophisticated instrumentation that we had at our disposal.) To reduce it to its simplest characterization, the error seemed to be along lines similar to power factor error often encountered in energy device evaluation by those not knowledgeable about this type of problem. When I discussed this with him in correspondence, he acknowledged that he was aware of this potential pitfall, often saw it himself, but still considered that at base the device still under certain operating conditions would transition into a mode where excess energy was generated.

    The next step (to which he agreed) was to come to our lab with his device so that we could collaborate further to determine the facts of the matter. While we were in the process of obtaining a visa for him, he had a heart attack or stroke (not unexpected; he was already partially paralyzed by a previous stroke when I met him in Moscow and was aged and in ill health).

    I was greatly saddened by his death, as I and my colleagues had looked forward to his visit and further collaboration. It is not my impression that he was pursuing his activity in a fraudulent manner; rather, if he was mistaken in his claims, it was more likely on the basis of faulty measurements that led him astray under conditions where measurements were extraordinarily difficult to make accurately, and almost certainly required access to better apparatus than was available to him.

    Its the old power factor thing again, I would recommend strongly that all researchers in this field study and understand the concept of power factor. It seems to be the basis of a great deal of misunderstanding, A simple series resonant circuit, excited at a particular frequency will produce the impression that several times the input power is showing up at certain parts of the circuit. What has occurred is that the tremendous surges in voltage and current in that branch of the circuit are out of phase.

    Words of Wisdom to the Searchers
    Keep something in mind, if it was easy, someone would have done it already. Just because it is not easy does not mean that it can't be simple, and being simple doesn't mean it can't be subtle.
