New article of the Larin’s together with IFP Energies nouvelles:


Chemical differentiation of planets: a core issue

http://arxiv.org/abs/1208.2909
In this article we demonstrate the physical meaning of the distribution of chemical elements on Earth surface as a function of their first ionization potentials. Accordingly, we show that the reported surface chemical composition of the different planets gathered by different space missions on Venus, Moon and Mars, as well as the chemical composition of chondrites from the asteroid belt are dependent to their distance to central star, the Sun (see Figure 3 in the article). The general tendency lies in the fact that the farther a body is located from the Sun, the smaller amount of easy ionized elements it contains and, vice versa, the closer this body is to the sun, the higher is the amount of such elements in it. This dependency, which is observed on factual data, strongly supports the idea that at the initial stage of formation, the Solar system material was - at least partially- in the state of an ionized gas. This article confirms and supplements the study of Vladimir Larin that is outlined in his book “Hydridic Earth

Knowing the rules of elements distribution in the Solar system, we calculated the original content of elements in the zone of the Earth formation. Accordingly, the Earth at the time of its formation contained up to 18 weight percent of hydrogen. Of course, the main mass of the hydrogen escaped, we have calculated that about one-fifth of the mass may still reside in inner Earth, combined into hydrides of other elements. This hydrogen, is according to our view slowly seeping from the Earth core in different places of our planet, as we are observing in our expeditions http://hydrogen-future.com/en/page-id-18.html
Very modest analysis shows that even 1% of initial natural hydrogen will be enough for humanity for billion years to meet our energy needs in current consumption rate. And such resource will be more ecological than the use of hydrocarbons. This study shows that hydrogen economy is our real future.
Before publication on the arXiv site, this article was submitted to journals with the highest impact factors. And, as too many papers, it does not pass the editorial board: “...although this work is interesting, it does not have the broad appeal needed for the audience of XXX ” is the shared editor answer… We would have preferred something like: “...although this work is interesting, it does not fit the prevalent theories…”.
Yes, we do know that our analysis of data, published on this site http://arxiv.org/abs/1208.2909, challenges the mainstream notions about the formation of the Solar system, and we hope we will be more successful in publishing in more specialized journals to open a scientific dialog on the subject that we imagine will be fascinating.
Famous physicist Louis de Broglie (founder of the quantum mechanics) said: “History shows that science progress was constantly fettered by tyrannical influence of certain concepts, when they began to be regarded as a dogma. For this reason, periodically the statements that were accepted without discussions must fall under deep study

Chemical differentiation of planets: a core issue - new Larin's paper

Chemical differentiation of planets: a core issue

Prevalent theories of the Solar System formation minimize the role of matter ionization and magnetic field in the Solar nebula. Here we propose that a magnetically driven chemical gradient at the scale of the Solar nebula predates radial chemical differentiation of each planet. We report an observed correlation between the first ionization potentials of the elements and their abundances on Earth surface relative to Sun, interpreted as a Boltzmann distribution depending on the distance from the Sun. This predictive model for distribution of the elements in the Solar System is successfully tested for relative abundance data from CI chondrites, Moon, Mars and Venus. Deviations from the proposed law for a given planet correspond to surface segregation of elements following periodic trends. Bulk Earth would have included up to 18%wt H, with definite consequences on theories about inner Earth composition. From this model, a new picture of the Solar System emerges.

Igor Trubin began his engineering career in 1979 as an IBM/370 systems engineer. He earned a Ph.D. in Robotics from St. Petersburg Technical University in 1986 and spent 12 years there as a professor teaching CAD/CAM and Robotics. He has published and presented more than 60 technical papers and conference presentations in robotics, artificial intelligence, IT performance, capacity management, anomaly detection, and FinOps. After moving to the U.S. in 1999, Igor worked at Capital One, IBM, and SunTrust Bank in senior engineering, architecture, and management roles. His 2002 CMG paper on exception detection received a Best Paper Award. He later developed Perfomalist.com, based on his original methods for anomaly, change-point, and trend detection, and created the online course “Performance Anomaly Detection.” At Capital One, he led development of cloud capacity-management and FinOps solutions, including the award-winning OptiCloud application. He has served on the CMG Board of Directors since 2015. Now semi-retired, Igor focuses on research, writing, and consulting. His current work expands his concept of the “Area of Normal Functioning” (ANF) from technical systems to human, orga
