Nothing unusual is going on. The curious semantics is historical. “Low energy 
nuclear reactions” was formerly a reference to devices like the Fusor. In the 
early sixties, Philo Farnsworth invented a branch of plasma physics which was 
employed low energy to produce nuclear reactions. This subfield of physics was 
simply plasma fusion carried out at the lowest possible power (~100 watt 
range). Goggle: “Fusor”.

 

As anyone who has owned a plasma globe lamp knows, impressive plasmas require 
only watts of input. The Fusor was not all that different from a plasma globe 
and it produced helium and gamma radiation from hydrogen. Unfortunately, the 
best Fusor results from ITT were 6 orders of magnitude from breakeven. 

 

In short, conventional hot fusion can be performed at very low input energy but 
has never been made efficient at any input level. The LENR espoused on vortex 
has simply borrowed the old terminology for use with “condensed matter” (solid 
phase) where actual net gain is seen at low input.

Hi all

Suddenly lots of reports with [lexicon]Low Energy Nuclear
Reactions[/lexicon] being discussed.
https://e-reports-ext.llnl.gov/pdf/790602.pdf


Whatever is going on?

I will post up a few more [image: ;)] Keep watching.
