In a new study, scientists have now discovered a type of metal where electrons actually do flow in a fluid-like way

This might make sense if its durability is higher in some applications.

Not sure what you’d use it for otherwise. A wire is pretty easy and low tech enough to run through most places.

Electrons moving in single file produce huge amounts of energy.

Now, imagine them in bunches and huge ones!...............

A probalistic fluid?
I doubt this…

Make the electrons bigger. Make the mass of the hydrogen bigger. Make the lattice holding them in smaller or more absorbent of Hydrogen/Deuterium. Ya get more control over the whole interaction, with the probabilistic fusion cross-section growing exponentially.

Electrons flow like a fluid in all metals. Well, a fluid flowing through a column of sand, but still.

Apparently these electrons flow in groups!................

This is interesting.

It’s also interesting that at high frequencies AC travels through a conductor on the outside...it’s called the skin-effect. i.e. The coaxial cable feeding a transmitter need only be copper on the outside of the conductors, cheaper aluminum can be used for the rest...the copper plating carries the load..

If you can get a hydrogen atom to lock electrons with this crystal, then have them stripped away, while simultaneously putting the two protons that are left together....................

Plus, consider their spin. As they bump into each other on a linear string, their spins align. That helps form a high temperature BEC.

they dont really state any clear benefits

i mean do they flow with a lot less friction (heat)

do they flow magnitiudes of times easier through this than regular metal?

is the new metal more durable than standard wires?

can we wrap a saucer in the new metal and spin it and go into orbit in 2 seconds?

it would be nice for some kind of practical ideas how this might be applied.

Bouncing balls in linear alignment: Astroblaster
https://youtu.be/2UHS883_P60

Basically, if a linear “AstroBlaster” tube effect can be in place, then the 1 dimensional collisions are amplified and may be enough to overwhelm the Coulomb barrier and cause Fusion.

How would a linear tube effect happen? By constraining the degrees of motion for Hydrogen trapped in a lattice structure of Nickel, or Deuterium trapped in a lattice structure of Paladium. The atoms will collide on a 1 dimensional path.
