The wholesale fusion of multiple heavy atoms in their entierty as scene in the LeClair reaction speaks against this idea. Cheers:Axil On Fri, Aug 10, 2012 at 8:58 PM, Harry Veeder wrote: > Similiar to Jones suggestion that the mass of a proton is just an > average, perhaps the charge

Similiar to Jones suggestion that the mass of a proton is just an average, perhaps the charge of a proton is just an average, so what takes place is a momentary reduction of charge instead of charge screening. harry On Fri, Aug 10, 2012 at 8:15 PM, Axil Axil wrote: > For 20 years, most cold f

For 20 years, most cold fusion research was stymied by the traditional belief of how fusion was supposed to work. There were a few others who recognized that electron screening was lowering the coulomb barrier but these workers were in the minority and not influential. Even E. Storms idea has elec

I am sure P&F had hopes of seeing clear signs of fusion by packing as much hydrogen into a sample of palladium as possible but after their initial success it became apparent to them that the process was dicy, as in a collection of samples, some worked and some did not. It should have been obviou
