RE: [Vo]:D. Alexandrov, Proposal for the development of an LENR reactor
Robin and Jones— IMHO the use of the term pycno hydrogen refered to a dense lattice of hydrogen –a metallic like crystalline lattice. Arata etal were not referring to a dense hydrogen atom as Mills and Holmlid are. As Robin suggested, I wound not compare Holmlid and Arata theory.

RE: [Vo]:D. Alexandrov, Proposal for the development of an LENR reactor
Two obvious questions avoided by the paper: 1. What is the theory—a reference would normally be included. 1. What is the “/Coating layer/ on the cathode satisfying some special requirements;?” This information is likely a University/researcher trade secret or part of a patent being prepared—more likely a trade secret IMHO. I would guess the coating is a compound that reduces the work function for absorption of H and D into the crystal lattice of the cathode. And that the cathode lattice is composed of atoms heavy enough to entail “heavy electrons” in their atomic electronic structure closest to their nucleus. Electrons that are too heavy will not work to produce LENR, because of a lack of the appropriate energy to allow conservation of energy and angular momentum in one reaction. TOO BAD—SO GOES OPEN SCIENCE. Bob Cook --- From: Andrew Meulenberg<mailto:mules...@gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2019 7:46 PM To: VORTEX<mailto:vortex-l@eskimo.com> Subject: Re: [Vo]:D. Alexandrov, Proposal for the development of an LENR reactor I have rejected the common concept of "heavy" electrons as applicable to LENR by simple reasoning. The definition of electron and hole effective mass in a semiconductor refers to the acceleration in that material from a force applied, m = F/a). This mass increase does not apply within a confinement site and, particularly, not at the nuclear level. Nevertheless, spatial confinement can significantly distort atomic orbital shapes and energy levels and this could lead to unusual effects. Also, confinement allows an increase in electron kinetic-energy levels and thus a decrease in average proximity of the electron to a nucleus. Nevertheless, the increased energy levels are on the eV level, not even at the 10s of eV level. On the other hand, such confinement, while not as great as that produced by the higher mass of a muon, can have a significant effect (nearly an order-of-magnitude) on the number of interactions per second with, and on the tunneling probability of atomic electrons into, nuclei in the confinement region. Unfortunately, any nuclear reaction induced by such electrons will be limited and of the "hot" fusion type. It takes something more to make relativistic electrons. That is where the deep-electron orbits enter the picture. They can have binding energies in the hundreds of keV and kinetic energies in the 100s of MeV. This would not give hot-fusion type results. Strangely enough, the deep orbits are long predicted by relativistic quantum mechanics. They just were not believed because nobody had seen them, or their results. With cold fusion, we can now see their results.

Re: [Vo]:D. Alexandrov, Proposal for the development of an LENR reactor
I have rejected the common concept of "heavy" electrons as applicable to LENR by simple reasoning. The definition of electron and hole effective mass in a semiconductor refers to the acceleration in that material from a force applied, m =* F/a*). This mass increase does not apply *within* a confinement site and, particularly, not at the nuclear level. Nevertheless, spatial confinement can significantly distort atomic orbital shapes and energy levels and this could lead to unusual effects. Also, confinement allows an increase in electron kinetic-energy levels and thus a decrease in average proximity of the electron to a nucleus. Nevertheless, the increased energy levels are on the eV level, not even at the 10s of eV level. On the other hand, such confinement, while not as great as that produced by the higher mass of a muon, can have a significant effect (nearly an order-of-magnitude) on the number of interactions per second with, and on the tunneling probability of atomic electrons into, nuclei in the confinement region. Unfortunately, any nuclear reaction induced by such electrons will be limited and of the "hot" fusion type. It takes something more to make relativistic electrons. That is where the deep-electron orbits enter the picture. They can have binding energies in the hundreds of keV and kinetic energies in the 100s of MeV. This would *not *give hot-fusion type results. Strangely enough, the deep orbits are long predicted by relativistic quantum mechanics. They just were not believed because nobody had seen them, or their results. With cold fusion, we can now see their results.

Several leading questions about “heavy electrons”: * Do heavy electrons fit in the standard Model? * If so, what is their relativistic KE? * If relativistic. What keeps them from leaving the semi conductor surface? Bob Cook From: Jones Beene Sent: Monday, February 25, 2019 6:28:44 PM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [Vo]:D.

Interesting. Alexandrov's concept of providing "heavy electrons" as apparently are seen in semiconductor technology - in order to catalyze the fusion of hydrogen and deuterium sounds a lot like muon catalyzed fusion. In fact the muon is sometimes referred to as a "heavy electron" since it is a heavy lepton. Curious that he does not emphasize that connection as it would add to the credibility of his concept.
