That idea may explain heat release, however, such a reaction would not
account for the transmutations being seen in Japan and other evidence of
new
nuclear species.
The transmutation seen by Piantelli, Mizuno and many others in Japan is
real, but miniscule - in the comparative picture. We are talking about a
few
thousand counts over hours - which is sub-femtogram level. Tiny levels of
transmutation are expected - and trace levels of gamma - but this is a
side-effect of the occasional higher energy annihilation reaction, which
is
many orders of magnitude too low to account for excess heat.
I doubt such a reaction with small amounts of Ps can
explain the large energy releases associated with explosive reactions,
researchers have incurred.
Why do you say "small amounts"? The vacuum is teeming with quantum foam,
according to Wheeler, Dirac and other who have looked into this. The
energy
which can be seen, in a large release, would be double an explosion of
hydrogen in oxygen. (but non nuclear)
Is there an energy release from the Dirac sea?
Well, there is a long line of reported gain from nascent hydrogen,
starting
with Langmuir. Rossi could be following in this progression, and would be
further evidence. It will be interesting to see what conclusion the Swedes
come up with.
What is the coupling from the sea to the Ps transition.
A bare proton is almost one dimensional - at the interface of 3-space with
reciprocal space (Dirac's term) and it grabs the electron from Ps, leaving
the positron in reciprocal space. The UV photon (6.8 eV) comes along with
the electron some of the time. The coupling is electrostatic and by
proximity at the interface of 3-space to another dimension.
Does something happen to cool the environment?
This would be expected in some circumstances, and Ahern's finding of
anomalous cooling would be an example. In that particular case energy from
3-space transfers into reciprocal space.
Is there any reference concerning the nature of the energy available in a
Dirac sea? I am not familiar with this idea.
Oh yes. Very good references. The cited URL will lead you to many others.

Don Hotson's papers are highly recommended.
