See: http://lenr-canr.org/wordpress/?p=1486 The speed of this project depends on how bored I get copying the information into the EndNote database, and how much other stuff crops up. This calls for a many-to-many relational database. EndNote supports that but my primitive on-line copy does not.

One way to exactly characterize the magnetic fields in the Ni/H reactor is to use neutron scattering as a probe of the magnetic field. The neutrons (a polarized mono-energetic neutron beam) will be unaffected by everything, for example electric charge or plasma reactions but will be affected by th

It certainly would be helpful if DGT supplied supporting evidence of the very large magnetic field. I agree with Jed that it might be premature to jump to conclusions as to the reality of the field, but I also believe that it does little harm for theoretical concepts to be suggested that depend
