they also used salt water. I am sure that the salt was somehow involved in that reaction.
Soon as I figure out how to program this ATMega168 microcontroller I want to run some frequency sweep tests with distilled water.
There are too many conflicting reports of the resonant frequency of this or that (one google search returned a frequency in excess of 22GHz for a water molecule!)... sometimes you just have to try for yourself.
Once some of the parameters are known, sensors can be used in a feedback loop to adjust the freq. output accordingly.
Also, what would the target of the drequency be? the hydrogen atoms? the oxygen atom? What about the H-O bond itself?
I am going to run with a hypothesis that is based on string theory ...the bosonic energy connecting the H to O might have an actual matter component (fermions) that would be a suitable target. And since no returns on a google search indicate that research is almost non-existant in this area, I would have to assume nothing and start at 1Hz and sweep up in the smallest incrememt I can to as high as my test rig will go (my DMM can only count freq. to 2Mhz so anything over that and I'll be flying blind)... so the first sweep will be 1Hz to 2Mhz. Also, RF is but one of several ways to impart a frequency to the water.
maybe it will work, maybe it won't but finding out is 99% of the fun!
