We report the results of an experiment of cavitation, carried out by means of a sonotrode working at a frequency of 20 kHz and a power of 100 W. The analysis of water was carried out through an ICP mass spectrometer continuously during the cavitation process, in the mass regions from 90 to 150 amu and from 200 to 255 amu, that include also the rare earth elements. We found a significant peak corresponding to a nuclide with atomic mass (137.93 +/- 0.01) amu and a half-life 12 +/- 1 seconds, identified with Eu-138. This result, together with those of two previous experiments (which evidenced changes in concentration of stable elements and production of transuranic elements induced by cavitation), seems to support sononuclear reactions (in particular sononuclear fusion). We propose some possible classical mechanisms for the explanation of these findings
We report the results of a double-slit-like experiment in the infrared range, which confirm those of a previous one by evidencing an anomalous behaviour of photon systems under particular (energy and space) constraints. These outcomes (independently confirmed by crossing photon beam experiments in both the optical and the microwave range) apparently rule out the Copenhagen interpretation of the quantum wave, i.e. the probability wave, by admitting an interpretation in terms of the Einstein-de Broglie-Bohm hollow wave for photons. Moreover, this second experiment further supports the interpretation of the hollow wave as a deformation of the Minkowski spacetime geometry.
We review the results of two double-slit-like experiments in the infrared range, which evidence an anomalous behaviour of photon systems under particular (energy and space) constraints.

Moreover, these experiments support the interpretation of the hollow wave as a deformation of the Minkowski space-time geometry. We stress the implications of these experimental results and of their interpretation for the concept of action-at-a-distance, Einstein's relativistic correlation and Bohr's principle of complementarity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
