The surface plasmon polariton (SPP) is first born out of concentrated infrared photons, but it gets to a stage where it can extract nuclear binding energy out of the nucleus. That energy is stored and downshifted through FANO resonance in a soliton until the SPP decays whereupon its EMF energy content now in the XUV and X-ray range is released to the far field.
I have been saying for years now that a cold reactor will cause gamma radiation. IMHO, this is due to the failure to form a Bose condensate among many Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPP)s. Lack of sufficient polariton pumping allows the SPP to initiate the LENR reaction, but not enough thermal pumping to create a bose condensate among the SPPs to spread the radiation around to thermalize or downshift gamma level radiation through super-absorption among many SPPs. Low temperature means many SPP are working alone thereby creating x-rays because no downshifting is possible. High temperatures means many SPPs working together in a BEC to share energy throughout the SPP ensemble through super-absorption. SPP pumping is similar to laser pumping https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_pumping Until the SPP pumping gets to an inversion condition, a SPP bose condensate cannot be formed. Weak pumping means no laser beam is produced. Usually, the x-xay stage lasts only a few seconds during startup on shutdown when the reactor is cold or is getting cold.
