Stephen— I agree that the data from the magnetars are important. It may be important in getting to a unified theory linking gravity and EM fields. The absence of spectra may even identify dark matter—hydrinos for example.

It looks like an interesting paper. It looks like the phenomena on the surface of magnetars is a hot topic this year. I wonder if this can be an effective data source for and analogue for conditions present in LENR? At the very least they should give some insight about the magnetic nature of physical processes involved in particle decays and interactions that may be applicable even in lower magnetic fields. Perhaps the local magnetic field in a nucleus at fm distances has impacts on nucleon stability and decay rates either directly or through resonance phenomena, perhaps at quark level. If so it would be interesting to know if there can still be significant influence say at a few hundred fm if the magnetic moment and available energy states are high. I wonder if their are any other interesting observational indicators on Magnetars it would be interesting maybe to see if the spectra can reveal the isotope ratios of elements. I suppose this might be easily possible for lighter elements and maybe due to the magnetic field from fine structure characteristics of the spectra. UV and X-Ray spectra could also be interesting especially if they can reveal something about the excitation state of the electrons in the atoms and the nucleus excitation states, as well as more macroscopic X-ray and RF radiation effects due to the plasma effects. Even though it's very different place and overall conditions than a LENR device, perhaps there are a lot of LENR physics analogues at macro scale that are applicable to LENR on micro scale that can be observed there.

This adds to the idea of the large magnetic fields created locally by SPP’s on metal surfaces or lattice cavities.

Apart from the interesting effects on the magnetic and electric fields I suppose those high density fluctuations may couple with the soft x-ray radiation through coupling with the plasma frequency if the electron density can get sufficiently high enough to approach that of degenerate matter. I wonder if there is a way we could measure those fluctuations externally would there be apparent signature in the EMF or something? Even though this paper is looking at quite extreme conditions with regards the magnetic field the fact it affects the decay rates seems to indicate something about how that decay works in general. I know similar studies have also been performed on the decay of Neutrons in strong magnetic fields but these would be free neutrons and so would probably align easier with the external field. Has any one identified what kind of magnetic field strengths we get in side a nucleus with in a few fm of a Nucleon? And what its strength would be fort her out at a few hundred fm or more? I do appreciate this question is simplistic as I probably need to consider the wave function in detail to understand the process and the implications of all the possible spin and angular momentum states etc but I'm not up to speed there unfortunately. So this is rather more a conceptual question regarding the dipole magnetic field from a particle.

This is a theoretical paper, apparently working within the current assumptions of physics. In order for most LENR observations to be explained by induced decay, I think that one or more of those assumptions will need to be revisited somewhat. One example: how high the electron density can get for short periods of time in metals under nonequilibrium conditions.
