In reply to Robin's message of Sun, 16 Jan 2011 14:19 Hi [snip]Radioactivity produces fast particles which can trigger an avalanche Hydrino creation mechanism that rapidly converts local H into Hydrinos of whatever size was originally at hand. If these are small enough to result in fusion/fission reactions, then these reactions can in turn create more fast particles..... The process stops when the local micro supply of H is consumed, and the net result is an extremely hot "spot" resulting in melting of the immediate material, hence Mizuno's craters, and Rossi's "zones". [/snip]
I think the radioactive catalyst may also form a gas that works inside the cavity where the relativistic environment has already resulted in dihydrinos - the alpha emissions could disassociate fractional h2 while it is discounted due to changes in Casimir force before the opposition to the h2 bond can translate into a physical repulsion. this would be a runaway ashless oscillation that could quickly melt the geometry into whiskers relieving the stiction forces. This would multiply the radioactive effect because of time dilation similar to reports where half lives are reversibly accelerated inside a catalyst. Regards Fran
