Gamma and neutron radiation from condensed matter

TL;DR

This paper proposes new electron states in atoms that exist during high acceleration, leading to high-energy gamma radiation without nuclear processes, explaining certain high-energy phenomena in laboratory conditions.

Contribution

It introduces the concept of anomalous electron states formed during atom acceleration, providing a novel explanation for high-energy emissions unrelated to nuclear reactions.

Findings

Transition to anomalous states emits 33.2 MeV gamma rays in lead.

Anomalous states are formed during rapid atom acceleration, not requiring nuclear energy.

Explains high-energy phenomena in lab lightning and explosions without nuclear involvement.

Abstract

Different electron states in atom are proposed. The states are bound to the electrostatic field of atomic nucleus cut off on its size. The states exist solely during acceleration of the atom exceeding the certain large value. The binding energy of these anomalous states is in the $10\,MeV$ range. In lead atom the transition to the anomalous state is accompanied by $33.2\,MeV$ gamma radiation. This is not nuclear energy. Observed high energy phenomena in lab lightning, electric explosion in liquids, and mechanical stress in solids are paradoxical since they are caused by low energy perturbations. However, these observations are compatible with the electron transitions to the anomalous states since their creation requires just a temporal atom acceleration but not its large kinetic energy.
