There is another plasmon friendly based factor at play here. This factor is
illustrative in the way Mizuno has advanced his thinking and research over
the years in an evolutionary step by step manor. Early on, Mizuno
discovered that his reaction benefited from distressing the surface of
palladium

FWIW. This detail may have relevance to the Mizuno breakthrough (claimed) … or
not.
Surface plasmons are a hot topic in physics these days. If surface plasmons are
important to the new Mizuno results then the resistance heater which he uses
may be an important component, even if it was chosen
Someone wrote to me saying he intends to try to replicate Mizuno's
experiment, but at a much higher temperature. I responded:
"PLEASE do not make any changes until you have tested the same materials in
the same conditions as the original!! Please follow the instructions as
closely as you can, and

I do not think the gasket material is critical to replicating the
experiment.
The reactor definitely uses metal gasket seals. I couldn't remember what
metal, but copper sounds right.
There's all kinds. See:

Hi Dave,
This looks like standard conflat UHV gear to me. The typical gasket used
for conflats is a fairly thick copper ring that is sealed by compression
between knife edges turned into the conflat faces. In absence of a
description of a special gasket material, I would presume it is the

Interesting results. One question I have is what material is used as a gasket

In my opinion, the rate at which heat energy is removed from the casing by the
airflow is a strong controller of the reaction stability. As expected, as long
as the internally generated heat due to the reaction is less than the amount of
heat energy escaping through the case at a given
Interesting results. One question I have is what material is used as a gasket

that nothing is required to prevent leaks.

The huge size of the reactor is an advantage against runaway of the LENR
reaction.
