*IMHO, we have been correctly told by DGT that their LENR process is a complex one comprised of many related and interconnected but separable sub-processes which when combined together produce heat without the production of intense and long lasting radiation.*
* * *I believe that their cold fusion process includes one sub-process that removes or greatly lowers the coulomb barrier to allow various neighboring nucleons to come together in a wide assortment of ways to form new types of nuclei. This process not only produces radiation from the nuclear fusion process but also from resulting newly created isotopes.* * * *The other major sub-process is one that overlays this fusion process and thermalizes this radiation production. This process involves the establishment and maintenance of a quantum mechanical coherent environment within in the nuclear active population of nuclei.* * * *What I am saying is that a large amount of radiation will be generated in a fusion system that is not coherent. * * * *A example of such a system that produces radiation and transmutation is the NanoSpire system. This system is not quantum mechanically coherent and as a result it will generated intense radiation from its intense fusion process. * * * *Rossi’s major concern was to eliminate or at least greatly mitigate any radiation produced by his system. He has pulled this off and this is a major accomplishment of both Rossi and DGT in they mostly produce heat and have suppressed radiation from there systems.* * * *Without this radiation suppression mechanism in place and operating AT ALL TIMES, a cold fusion system is of little use.* * * * * * * On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 11:21 AM, Joseph Hao <jth...@hotmail.com> wrote: > ** > Hey Vortex Gang, > > My primary question motivating this post/query is to get a consensus on > whether the presence of radiation is a necessary prerequisite for LENR/Cold > Fusion Effects.
