Are you familiar with the Hora/ Miley paper from last year? http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/HoraHradiochemi.pdf 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.

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 ... Jones

In reply to Jones Beene's message of Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:05:15 -0800: 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).

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.
