Hi,

Oh wait a minute, if the electron is inside the proton, doesnt the whole
structure look like a neutron, ie it wont see a coulomb barrier and can
fuse with another hydrogen at will ?
See Horace Heffner's Deflation
Does anyone know how (or if) in theory the proton's radius would
effect rates of fusion?
Would the proton have to be larger or smaller to increase rates of fusion?
A smaller charge radius means less coulomb repulsion.
When enough electrons shield enough positive charge from the proton, two
We've already gone over the new Science paper on muonic hydrogen elsewhere,
but I saw a comment on E-Cat World that I thought was worth bringing up
here. According to a summary of the Science article in Ars Technica [1],
the problem I alluded to in the title is that the charge radius of the

is Mills's fractional hydrogen, or it might be something entirely different.
This is incorrect. The physicists are measuring *muonic*

I am going to play the skeptic on this thread. I have a very strong suspicion
that the accuracy of the proton measurement is most likely not as good as is
thought. Why does
Perhaps the proton's radius can be both increased and descreased under
certain conditions.

effect rates of fusion?
Would the proton have to be larger or smaller to increase rates of fusion?
