![rife1.gif]() Royal Raymond Rife pictured here
with the Rife Universal Microscope... one of his greatest
inventions! |
- Introduction
- The Rife Beam tube was most probably the
greatest contribution to the field of oncology, and as expected was
completely ignored by the medical community as a whole. Rife was not a
quack, he was an accomplished scientist who practiced both as a
physician and researcher. Single-handedly, Rife discovered the basic
true nature of cancer and eventually arrived at a cure.
Rife
began his research looking for some type of underlying cause of the
carcinomas and sarcomas plaguing both his generation and ours. To aid
him in is quest, he developed many laboratory instruments, such as the
Rife microscope, that have yet to be equaled... even today. The closest
device available to the modern researcher today is the electron
microscope. However, the electron microscope will not image a live virus
as the Rife model would.
As with many great inventors, Rife
found himself persecuted and he died a broken man, leaving behind the
legacy of his great accomplishments for future generations to
rediscover.
- The Rife Microscope
- Rife began his research looking for an
underlying cause for cancer. He postulated that certain types of virus
were pleomorphic, that is to say they possessed the ability to change
form. Further, he postulated that the virus in question were constructed
in ways resembling crystalline lattice, and in certain states were
susceptible to mechanical or electrical vibrations. These virus emanated
frequencies near or at their own internal resonant frequencies and
therefore he concluded that a suitable device could be constructed to
identify these insidious carcinogens.
The first step was to image
the living virus in some way that allowed a magnification great enough
and resolution clear enough that a human eye could perceive the very
mechanisms that were the wheelworks of the cancer process. As the reader
might recall, the problem with normal light optics in magnifying
microscopes is that the wavelength of the source light prohibits the
imaging of items that have a diameter that is smaller. You simply cannot
image an object that is smaller than the source lights wavelength! But
by resonating cells to the point that they became the light source, Rife
was able to construct one his greatest inventions... the Rife
Universal Microscope... a microscope that allowed optical imaging of
living things as small as a virus while they were active and “alive”. He
discovered things never before seen by a human being.
Using
samples from living tumors, Rife was able to identify various cancer
causing virus and he was able to learn to recognize their various forms
as they changed from one form to another. He noticed that each type of
virus had a unique frequency associated with it evidenced by the color
of the light that he saw through the microscope. Rife was able to back
calculate these frequencies and identify what he later termed Mortal
Oscillatory Rates.
- The Rife Beam Tube
- At this point, Rife was to make his single
greatest discovery (not counting the microscope). He constructed a
simple plasma discharge tube that generated a narrow spectrum of light
somewhere in the high visible-low UV area. When he exposed the samples
of the cancer-causing virus to the light, nothing happened. This was the
control experiment. The light alone would not affect the samples. Rife
could verify this by looking through the microscope after each
exposure.
Rife then modulated the light from his tube with a
simple square wave oscillator. The oscillator was set to the mortal
oscillatory rate of the particular virus he was trying to effect. When
he exposed the sample to the modulated light, I imagine even he was
dumbfounded! The crystalline structured virus were completely
obliterated. They were literally shattered to pieces by the force of
resonance. In addition, Rife found that once destroyed, the virus lost
their ability to cause cancers and were inert. To destroy different
carcinomas, Rife simply changed the modulation frequency of the plasma
tube.
He quickly discovered that he could shrink tumors with this
approach also!!! Imagine his excitement upon uncovering one of the most
significant discoveries of the century. Rife continued to experiment
with his smaller tubes and made improvement after improvement until
arriving at the final design that was to become his “treatment” device.
Hundreds of people received treatments from Rife and his amazing beam
tube, the success rate was phenomenal. The Rife Instrument WAS a cure
for Cancer!!
- Not sold ANYWHERE!
- So, here we are in 2003, and there are no
Rife Beam Tubes to be found! Sure, you can buy a Rife generator, half a
dozen companies produce them in one form or another. But, the beam tube,
the true original device created by Rife has not been produced or
redeveloped to this day to my knowledge.
Our intention is to
re-create this amazing device, to explore the theory of its operation,
and bring the technical specifications to light once again. Our aim is
to create the tools for the serious clinical researcher to enable
him/her to continue in Rife’s footsteps and trod the path he
illuminated. If the Rife generators available commercially aren’t like
the original design, what was the original beam tube like?
To
fully understand and appreciate the complex mechanics of an electronic
plasma discharge beam tube, we must first take a brief look into
technical details of the physical properties of these types of devices.
- Four States of Matter
- Truly in a state by itself, plasma is full
of mystery. The least prevalent state of matter on Earth, plasma is the
most abundant state of matter in outer space. Plasma is an embodiment,
readily observable, of both matter and energy in
symbiosis.
Plasma is used in many commercial and industrial
applications. Plasma discharge tubes and their applications touch the
lives of most of us every day from neon signs to X-Rays in clinics and
hospitals to fluorescent lights and television. Before any coherent
discussion of this unique state of matter called plasma, can be
undertaken, we need to be familiar with a few terms and concepts.
- ion ~ An ion is an atom or group of atoms that is
not electrically neutral but instead carries a positive or negative
charge. Positive ions are formed when neutral atoms or molecules lose
valence electrons, Negative ions are formed when neutral atoms or
molecules gain valence electrons.
- valence electrons ~ These are electrons in the outer
shells of the atom, and are also those which are generally more
susceptible to changes (such as removal and addition) when acted upon
by outside forces.
- ionization potential ~ This refers to the work
required to remove a given electron from its atomic orbit and place it
at rest at an infinite distance. The ionization potential is
measured in electron volts (eV).
1 eV = 23.053 calories.This figure can be
misleading as it is based on a static potential measure for any given
material.
- nonlinear ~ This means a one to one
relationship for input to output does not follow.
Another way to describe nonlinear is elastic.
A good example of
nonlinear, elastic plasma behavior is “Negative Resistance”. A circuit
which displays negative resistance behavior operates as follows:
As the voltage across the circuit increases, the current
across the circuit increases; but then as the voltage is further
increased, the current flow becomes less! This area of
negative resistance is a nonlinear property of a given
circuit.
Matter exists in four states: solid, liquid,
gaseous and plasma. The fourth state of matter is plasma. Most of the
matter in the universe is plasma.
- Solids are characterized by definite volumes and
shapes that vary only slightly with environmental changes, provided
they remain solid during those changes.
- Liquids, while possessed of definite volumes, have
no definite shape and take on the shape of their container. Liquids
can exhibit certain gaseous properties as certain liquids are more
compressible than others.
- Gasses exhibit neither definite shape nor definite
volume: they expand to fit large containers, may be compressed to fit
smaller containers, and escape from open containers.
Liquids and gasses are collectively referred to as
fluids as both display the ability to flow from one place to another.
The distinction between fluids and solids is not always clear. Certain
materials exhibit a property known as cold flow, appearing solid yet
changing shape and dimension over time. Advancing glacier ice is an
obvious solid exhibiting fluid properties...
- Plasma is similar to gaseous matter with a main
difference being that plasma is ionized. The constituents of
plasma are atoms or molecules that possess a negative or positive
charge. The behavior of plasma is determined by the characteristics of
the gas and by the characteristics of the electric and magnetic
fields.
Now we are ready to address the generation and
control of certain types of plasma within plasma discharge
tubes.
- Plasma Discharge Tubes
- A gas such as argon or neon or helium may
changed into plasma by several means:
- Heat the gas until it becomes ionized.
- Expose the gas to certain types of radiation until ionization
occurs.
- Expose the gas to nearly any type of radiation at high enough
levels and it will ionize.
- Expose the gas to high intensity electric or magnetic fields.
- Apply an electric potential across the gas.
One of the
most convenient ways to ionize a gas is heat; this is done every time a
flame is created. A more controlled method involves the use of electric
and magnetic fields.
The illustration below of a gas discharge
tube shows some of the major anomalies of a discharge tube operated at
low pressures with direct current. The balance of this article will
address such low pressure systems and some aspects of their control.
Higher pressure systems generate considerable amounts of heat and
complicates a simple description of the phenomena.
![rife2.gif]() Gas Discharge Tube: This figure
shows some of the major anomalies of a discharge tube operated at
low pressures with direct current.
| Fluorescent tubes, used for
lighting purposes, are one of the most common low pressure discharge
tubes in use today. The fluorescent lamp is filled with a low pressure
mixture of inert or noble gasses, sometimes amounts of other more
reactive gasses, and a small amount of metallic mercury. A voltage
sufficient to induce ionization and also high enough to exceed the
negative resistance region is applied for a brief time.
Prior to
the excitation of the lamp, the gasses inside the lamp are fairly good
insulators. During excitation the gasses ionize and then are able to
conduct electricity more readily. The mercury vapor aids in the
conduction and serves to emit light in the visible range, in the long
wave ultraviolet range and in the short wave ultraviolet region. Some
infrared is also emitted. The combination of radiation is allowed to
strike light emitting materials (phosphors) on the inside surface of the
tube, emitting by design white or colored light.
The frequency of
light emitted by fluorescent tubes is determined by the gasses used, the
nature and magnitude of excitation current, and by the phosphors in the
tube. We credit Nikola Tesla for the primary development of this style
of lighting tube.
Luminous tubes employ a mixture
of gasses and sometimes mercury or other metals but no phosphors. The
luminous tube most familiar is neon lighting, although other gasses are
used to obtain different colors. The luminous tube is a nonlinear system
and is affected by internal and external fields, both electric and
magnetic.
The frequencies of light emitted by a luminous tube
are determined by the gasses used, their concentrations, and by the
nature and magnitude of the excitation current and by the effects of
magnetic and electric fields. This type of lighting was widely used for
advertising and especially popular with breweries. It is no accident
that most neon sign manufacturers were located in Milwaukee in the
1940’s.
- Controlling Plasma Tubes
- The myriad effects of fields external to low
pressure tubes with low to moderate power systems will only be briefly
addressed. The actual light frequencies emitted by differing gasses and
phosphors is tabulated in the CRC Handbook of Physics and Chemical
Constants and other texts.
The tube is basically an
insulator until a threshold voltage is reached At this point the tube
becomes a conductor subject to its particular nonlinearities. Once the
threshold voltage is reached and the gas in the tube is ionized,
ionization continues at a reduced voltage. As voltage is further
reduced, ionization is no longer supported and the tube is
extinguished.
A tube can “ignite” or become conducting
below the threshold voltage by several types of external and/or
internal excitations. Brought to a critical voltage level, a tube can
“avalanche” or become conducting with exceedingly small energy inputs.
The Geiger-Muller tube uses this principle to detect
radioactivity.
Some of the critical breakover excitations
include:
- Radiation of various wavelengths, generally the shorter the
wavelength the greater the possibility of ignition.
- Brief voltage excursions, generally in the form of a trigger pulse
such as with a Xenon flash tube.
- Heat in various forms
- Fields, both static and dynamic.
For the modulation of
the gas tube (especially nonlinear), special circuitry is required. The
control element is required to have several times the current and
voltage handling capability of the tube. As the tube generally operates
on a relatively high voltage, control circuitry that may be affected by
the electrostatic and magnetic fields generated should be
shielded.
The greatest linearity is obtained by the use of some
type of feedback loop or reverse non linear compensating circuit. Should
the tube be required to have a range from zero emission to some nominal
level, a pre ionization and/or “keep alive” provision should be made. To
accomplish this function, a radioactive source or emitter has been used
and is still used for cold cathode tubes. Generally, this has been an
isotope of thorium. Highly radioactive substances have been used as a
pre ionization by virtue that energetic particles released produce an
apparent “spontaneous” ionization.
Very high power lasers are
energized by plasma producing chemical reactions. On another scale, the
Gissler tube had no apparent input power and relied on static
electricity generated by metallic mercury rubbing against the
crenellated sides of the tube.
The foregoing has largely
addressed the direct current stimulation of tubes. Alternating current,
throughout and beyond the radio frequency spectrum can be employed with
profound secondary, tertiary and higher order effects. Plasmas can be
induced in the air at normal pressures by this means capable of
depositing atomic metals on the most delicate of substances without
damage, or cutting through the toughest of armor with ease.

- Rife Beam Tube
- In the book “The Cancer Cure that Worked!” a
detailed description of the original Beam Tube can be found. It was
really a straight forward device, simple to construct, and operate. The
essentials were as follows:
- The Beam Tube was constructed from a modified Coolidge X-RAY tube.
The tube was filled with a mixture of noble gasses designed to create
a narrow spectrum of light in the near UV range.
- The Beam Tube was driven by a Radio Frequency transmission source
of approximately 100-500 Watts. This transmitter was tuned to operate
in the 28-35 Mhz band. The transmitter had provisions to be modulated
in a class C configuration (on or off) by a square wave
oscillator.
- A square wave oscillator generated the Mortal Oscillatory Rates
that keyed the transmitter on and off. The transmitter in turn ignited
the plasma inside of the Coolidge tube which radiated the
subject.
Please note that the beam tube actually formed an
RF plasma. The plasma acted like a very special type of radio antenna.
In fact, no good studies exist that explore the radiation
characteristics of an RF plasma device.
![rife4.gif]() Proposed Rife Plasma Beam
Tube consisting of a plasma antenna using a small thin glass
tube cut to 1/4 the wavelength of a RF transmitters resonant
frequency, and wound into a coil that is positioned vertically and
mounted to a suitable insulator, would make efficient use of the
rf supplied. | The subject then was
bathed in these emanations for short periods of time every other day or
every two days... and most importantly, the device worked! It cured
people who were in advanced stages of the disease! Remember, Rife was
their last hope, he only worked with terminally ill
patients.
- Reconstructing the Original Tube
- Our research team has been studying the
means by which a Rife Beam tube might be reconstructed and perhaps made
to be more efficient. One of the principle concerns of anyone using
Radio Frequency (rf) energy is burning effects. Much like the workings
of a microwave oven, rf energy can cause local heating in a subject. The
diathermy machine is based on this premise.
If a beam tube could
be fabricated in such a way that a more efficient use of the RF power
was obtainable, it would certainly make for a safer device. One way to
realize this type instrument, is to create a plasma antenna using a
small thin glass tube cut to 1/4 the wavelength of a RF transmitters
resonant frequency, and wound into a coil that is positioned vertically
and mounted to a suitable insulator. The tube would be closed at both
ends and house two electrodes between which, a plasma would be created
and sustained.
The plasma would be created by a separate high
voltage source such as a neon sign transformer. At one end of this
antenna device, the output of the transmitter would be coupled through a
suitable impedance matching network, so that the transmitter could be
tuned properly and the power would be transmitted to the load. The
transmitter would be keyed on and off by a modulator that was controlled
by an IBM PC.
![rife5.gif]() Proposed Rife Plasma Beam
Tube would make use PC technology to select and control the
Mortal Oscillatory Rates. | The IBM PC
would be responsible for generation the various Mortal Oscillatory Rates
necessary to make the machine operate properly. The computer would be
programmed to function as the Rife square wave generator and would
require custom programming. In all, the unit could be fashioned into a
nice clinical package and could be engineered to be robust, and flexible
enough to allow for software modifications that might greatly enhance
performance.
Once this beam tube is developed, we feel that the
door will be open to a world of exploration and endless
discovery.__BF |
