This was the first time that I remember reading anything similar  
re: the
role of quarks - as in your paper, but it could be a completely  
different
slant since it begins with an examination of quarks in nuclear  
fission -

before trying to tie that into LENR.


Say, thanks for the reference. I had seen it, but it was just a  
distant memory, as are most of my memories are these days.


Here is another Hora et al article along similar lines:

http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/HoraHlowenergyna.pdf

I added them to the references.

Here's a strange one:

RODIONOV, B. and SAVVATIMOVA I.,”UNUSUAL STRUCTURES ON THE MATERIAL  
SURFACES IRRADIATED BY LOW ENERGY IONS”:

http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/RodionovBunusualstr.pdf

Weird tracks, and in metal no less. What kind of matter does THAT??



The quark-connection is intriguing and makes sense (if only by  
default), but
like everyone else who is not a specialist in this stuff, I need to  
study it

more thoroughly.

Keep up the good work.



Thanks!  I'll try.  It may be all wrong, but at least it appears to  
be a novel line of thought, and one that explains a lot.

My paper Cold Fusion Nuclear Reactions is now at Draft #7 status.
Hopefully it is about done.

Any critique appreciated.

One thing I am not clear on - he goes into many gyrations over the magic
numbers and finds new ones, apparently ... but then inexplicably drops the
practical aspect of that finding for LENR. 

Maybe I am misreading the implication, but given Z=180 could be special
for nuclear (quark ?) effects ... then why not consider hafnium as LENR
candidate? That is - since its most prevalent isotope of Hf is Hf-180 ?

... and yes, the major use today for hafnium is nuclear - as control rod
material for fission reactors. IOW Hf has a high cross-section for thermal
neutrons that outweigh its rarity and cost. I suppose that a few grams could
be ground down to nano-particle size range (2-10 nm) and compared against
the Arata-Zhang alloy.

Ya' never know till ya' try ...

Hi,
[snip]
Speaking of real demos of CANR chain reactions ... in fact a very old demo
with a high death toll...
 
IOW, speaking of nuclear triggers in the historical sense ... which could
be exactly on point to this subject - via the uber-secret project that led a
few experts at Los Alamos to the realization that deuterium is chemically
active for nuclear reactions ... i.e. when rapidly mixed with the proper
ingredient (photon activated chlorine) D2 can release copious neutrons,
which can be used (and were) as a trigger... 

...that is the one major secret from the Manhattan project that was fairly
well kept - the  Kistiakowsky trigger, but as I have opined  before, the
[snip]
Note that according to Mills in his paper
http://www.blacklightpower.com/papers/Commercializable%20Paper%20101409.pdf HCl
is a Mills catalyst. The reaction D2 + Cl = D + DCl would produce lots of D
atoms which could then be shrunk with the help of the catalytic DCl. Once
severely shrunken D atoms combined to form shrunken D molecules, the D-D
reaction D + D = He3 + n could produce neutrons.

The photo activation helps by ensuring a large population of D and Cl atoms.

(The reaction D + Cl2 = DCl + Cl also takes place).

Coyote probably has worms.  Animals that eat their food raw and live on
a high meat diet typically do.

Well, you have to give him some credit.  He did define the situation  
rather well: I was an undergraduate physics major and I did a  
master's program in engineering, but it was clear that I wasn't cut  
out, intellectually, for a career in either field.
