I have seen some skeptopaths say that an HBomb is an example of Controlled

HBomb is an UNcontrolled reaction. We have pissed hundreds of $billions

I agree that there are a number of alloys that do better at hydrogen
solubility than Ni. However, they may not have the body centered crystal
array and may actually have differing phases, some of which hold the
hydrogen better than others in the same alloy. The simple crystal structu

He achieved better loading than the standard of 1:1 with nickel-palladium
alloy (at low Pd ratio in the alloy).

Its not so difficult if you suspect HD--you need to dissociate the HD molecule
first and then do a mass spec test on the gas coming out of the system.
Neither the H nor the D have a atomic weight (AW) of 3 and a charge of +2. H-3
would be the other most likely AW of 3 and it would be

Perhaps - but misleading. Pure nickel is not a great proton conductor- and one
must pay dearly to get pure nickel. But why?

I watched the Hagelstein 5th day lecture last night. With respect to the
NiH system some of his optic and sonic coupling arguments went over my head.
I did understand the electron shielding argument associated with overcoming
the coulomb repulsion issue in the Ni matrix. Its not appar
Looking deeper into the magnetic coupled positive feedback LENR reaction, I
have a few ideas to pass along. I understand that a magnetic field has
essentially unlimited access to the atomic structure. By this I mean that a

Another factor favoring CNT - as the containment mechanism for hydrogen in
an alternative version of LENR (instead of a metal lattice) is the
similarity to graphene in presence of electrons.
There is every reason to suspect that CNT would support ballistic electrons

Hi Kevin,
I did include two variants of BEC- one is associated with Kim and one with
Takahashi. Neither can adequately explain operation at elevated
temperatures.
This is a list that is continually evolving and I will include a 1D version
in the next go-around.
