[snip] This sounds a lot like the http://www.proton21.com.ua/index_en.html work. They talk about a severely compressed shell of charge passing through the material, and suggest that it catalyzes LENR reactions of the severe fusion-fission variety. I also have a vague recollection of about a 10:1 energy ratio being bandied about.
