“Apparatus and Method for Absorption of Incident Gamma Radiation and its Conversion to Outgoing Radiation at Less Penetrating, Lower Energies and Frequencies”
Abstract: “Gamma radiation (22) is shielded by producing a region of heavy electrons (4) and receiving incident gamma radiation in such region. The heavy electrons absorb energy from the gamma radiation and re-radiate it as photons (38, 40) at a lower energy and frequency. The heavy electrons may be produced in surface plasmon polaritons. Multiple regions (6) of collectively oscillating protons or deuterons with associated heavy electrons may be provided. Nanoparticles of a target material on a metallic surface capable of supporting surface plasmons may be provided. The region of heavy electrons is associated with that metallic surface. The method induces a breakdown in a Born-Oppenheimer approximation. Apparatus and method are described.”

Quoting some interesting excerpts from the body of this patent (inserts in square brackets added for clarity):
“It must be emphasized that the strength of electric fields just above the patches [of protons or deuterons] is crucial to the production of ultra low momentum neutrons [and dual-use ‘heavy’ mass-renormalized SPP e* electrons which serve as co-located gamma shields as well as a reactant needed to produce neutrons via electroweak e* + p or e* + d reactions]. If the local electric fields are not high enough (e.g., << 10*11 V/m) critical field strength thresholds will not be reached and SPP electrons will be short of the minimum mass [e*] necessary ... to form ... neutrons. It is well known in nanotechnology ... that micron- and nano-scale surface features/topology and the size/geometry/placement of nanoparticles on surfaces can have dramatic effects on local electromagnetic fields ... The implication of these facts is that ... [nanotech device fabrication] techniques must be used that are capable of nanoscale control [over initial surface properties] ...”
