I see that this analysis was carried out in 2012.

Zirconium oxide is isoelectronic with palladium.
Dr. Will Castleman and his team have discovered clusters of atoms that
mimic some of the properties of other elements. Called "superatoms," these
clusters of atoms behave like a single "s

Robin,
My understanding is that the temperature of the exchanger heating the water
is at 300C. If this were the case in a LENR reactor, then the reaction
core would probably have to be substantially hotter to overcome the thermal
resistance and have that operating point. The concern is the tempe

Hi,
Even if 300C were the limit, would that really be a problem? IIRC Jed has
mentioned that 300-350C is the usual working temperature of fission reactors, so
it appears to be a usable temperature range.

This is frequently done with noble metal catalysts. They are mixed with a
thin oxide "wash coat" and applied either to a metal or a ceramic base.
The Ni is tougher to keep from sintering. You want the nano-Ni exposed,
but the nano-features melt at about 600C and will begin sintering at 300C.

The Violante paper was a fine effort; and it clearly identified one source of

Certainly, there could be other channels which were outside the s

I believe why Rossi likes to use Ni64 is because that stable isotope is

To cut to the chase - the gain comes from SPP simulated

there is no gamma. The half-life of the intermediary is a few hour
Not sure if Peter mentioned this rather dated but prescient Violante paper.

Bob,
Obviously there is not enough data. For better or worse, that problem may end
soon.
The dedicated sites are awash with predictions of a TP2 report by the end of
