From CNRS News: Touching on vacuum energy by Mathieu Grousson

According to quantum theory, a vacuum is actually packed full of energy. Scientists are currently working on an experiment designed to show that it can even slow light down and deflect it.

...

A paradoxical energy: Even in the earliest versions of quantum mechanics at the beginning of the twentieth century, the equations of the new theory introduced mathematical terms that baffled physicists...

This is one of the very interesting vids from the McGinty AI | Fractal Quantum Mechanics YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@mcgintyai): Unlocking Infinite Power: Zero-Point Energy (ZPE) and the McGinty Equation Explained

Description: Join us on an incredible journey exploring the untapped energy potential of the quantum vacuum and the McGinty Equation. From the sun’s core to the way plants transform sunlight into food, nature has always been our greatest teacher about energy. But now, as we enter the quantum age, we have the opportunity to revolutionize energy generation forever. Scientists have long believed that spacetime itself—what we call the quantum vacuum—holds immense energy. What if we could harness this hidden ocean of power to fuel a cleaner, limitless future?

As of today, science is "firm" on the impossibility of tapping directly the Zero-point (Vacuum) Energy for useful power (Zero Point Energy - Demystified). But if there is validity to some experimental evidence for fuel-less energy devices (ZPEnergy.com thinks so), we always assumed its ultimate possible source for the excess energy, must be the energetic vacuum! Well, it seems there is now a legitimate candidate for extracting some useful energy from the vacuum: False Vacuum Decay.

Sabine: One of the most disturbing ideas in physics, or maybe *the most disturbing idea, is that space can fall apart. That’s because it could be what’s called “false” vacuum. A false vacuum can remain in this innocent reliable looking form for billions of years, but eventually a quantum fluctuation could be enough to cause it to decay. This would release enormous amounts of energy and kill all of us. Yes, cheerful thought.

Abstract
Anomalous heat, tracks and transmutations have been found over decades of LENR research [1,2,3,4,5,6]. The MFMP has extensively documented these phenomena both in third party work, replications of prior research, in community collaborations and in our own novel approaches. In recent years, caught on video and quality images, we have predictably observed the action of fractal toroidal current structures, the specific signatures of which are present when anomalous heat or transmutations are present.

From the ECE Theory YouTube channel: Einstein Cartan Evans (ECE) Theory is the CORRECT Unified Field Theory. It is a result of using the right geometric model of space-time (Cartan Geometry). Einstein's Relativity is wrong, since it was based an incomplete mathematical model of space-time (Riemann Geometry).

Myron W. Evans has corrected Einstein's error, and has derived all physics equations from Cartan geometry, without resorting to arbitrary constants.

 

Einstein's General Relativity cannot explain many things. One glaring example is the spiral shape of galaxies. In contrast, ECE Theory explains the spiral shape very simply, and the prediction matches the observations.

From Quanta magazine: What Could Explain the Gallium Anomaly? by Jonathan O'Callaghan

Deep in the Caucasus Mountains, on the border between Russia and Georgia, an unusual experiment is taking place. In an underground lab shielded by a mountain of rock, highly radioactive material sits inside a vat of liquid gallium, blasting out particles called neutrinos that break the gallium down into atoms of germanium.

Here is the response from Anthropc’s newest and most intelligent model - Claude 3.5 Sonnet, to my question: Is there any credible research in tapping vacuum energy?

Claude 3.5 Sonnet: As of my last update in April 2024, there haven't been any widely accepted major breakthroughs in the experimental verification of vacuum energy effects that would fundamentally change our understanding or bring us closer to practical energy extraction. However, there have been some interesting developments and refinements in our understanding of related phenomena. Here are a few notable areas of recent research:

1. Improved Casimir force measurements:
Researchers have continued to refine techniques for measuring the Casimir force with greater precision. This has allowed for better comparisons between theoretical predictions and experimental results, helping to validate aspects of quantum field theory.

2. Dynamic Casimir effect:
There have been some experimental observations of the dynamic Casimir effect, where photons are created from vacuum fluctuations due to rapidly moving boundaries. While this doesn't lead directly to energy extraction, it does provide evidence for the reality of vacuum fluctuations.

Via livescience.com: The universe may be dominated by particles that break causality and move faster than light, new paper suggests by Paul Sutter

With the nature of the universe's two most elusive components up for debate, physicists have proposed a radical idea: Invisible particles called tachyons, which break causality and move faster than light, may dominate the cosmos.

Could the cosmos be dominated by particles that move faster than the speed of light? This model of the universe agrees surprisingly well with observations, a pair of physicists has discovered.

The Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin was founded in 1985 by Harold Puthoff, PhD, and later incorporated under EarthTech International, Inc., in 1991 as an innovative research facility with a high‐powered creative staff dedicated to exploring the forefront reaches of science and engineering. Our research interests include theories of spacetime, gravity and cosmology; studies of the quantum vacuum; modifications of standard theories of electrodynamics; interstellar flight science; and the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, specifically as these topics may apply to developing innovative space propulsion and sources of energy. We strive to translate these ideas into laboratory experiments.

Abstract

This paper reports the discovery that water can trigger a peculiar nuclear reaction and produce energy. Cavitation may induce unusual reactions through implosion of water vapor bubbles. Many of this research has been published formally or informally. We have conducted experiments using two reactor types made from multiple-pipe heat exchanger and found that the heat exchange process of water produces peculiar excess heat and abnormally high pressure leading to rupture of the reactor. Recently, we have tested another eight reactors. Interestingly, these reactors produce non-condensable gas.

Axil Axil: All vacuum based reactors will be short lived because of transmutation. It remains to be seen if Rossi or anybody else has or will come up with a solution to mitigate the inevitable destructive and discombobulating nature of transmutation of elements. Every silver lining has a dark cloud to hide it. If the SSM reactor lasts for three years Rossi will be lucky. Think of the SSM as a battery that runs for awhile and then weaken and eventually fails requiring replacement.

The new quantum protocol effectively borrows energy from a distant location and thus violates no sacred physical principles. Kristina Armitage/Quanta Magazine

For their latest magic trick, physicists have done the quantum equivalent of conjuring energy out of thin air. It’s a feat that seems to fly in the face of physical law and common sense.
