Lou Pagnuco on LENR-Forum found an arxiv paper "X-ray laser pulses from solids" …do you think it have connection ? <http://arxiv.org/pdf/1512.08504v1.pdf> http://arxiv.org/pdf/1512.08504v1.pdf Yes, there is a most interesting paper, and with a definite connection to LENR, but it is not what the proponents of “nuclear fusion” want to see or hear. ZPE proponents will be delighted, since it demonstrates gain from the zero point field. In fact, the author repeats several times that the upshifted gain from KeV to MeV is NOT NUCLEAR. Quote: “We emphasize again that those processes, involving the MeV energy range, are not due to nuclear energy source but of the electron-photon origin.” Plus, Ivlev (who appears to be a Russian PhD working in Mexico) states the gain essentially comes from ZPE (i.e. the vacuum). Quote: “Further development of X-ray lasers, which operate consuming vacuum energy, is promising. It would be amazing to accurately measure the energy balance. Nuclear transmutations are possible under the action of high-energy photons emitted from anomalous electron-photon states … but … We emphasize again that those processes, involving the MeV energy range, are not due to nuclear energy source - but of electron-photon origin.
