Hi Bob, The calculation I was thinking of was this: p+7Li → 2*4He + Q (16.8 MeV) 16.8 MeV / ( 2 * 4He * ( 4 nucleons / 4He ) ) = 16.8 MeV / 8 nucleons = 2.1 MeV / nucleon The per-nucleon calculation just gives one a sense that the 4He are traveling pretty fast. I assume there would be

I think high energy alphas cause lots of lattice damage like happens in fission reactor fuel. Liquid fuel would not be structurally so damaged however. I would expect nano particles would be modified pretty quickly. Fission energy release is around 200 Mev, most of which goes into fission

A muon track could look like a proton track in a cloud chamber. How can you tell the difference? We can use a magnetic field to see which way the particle bends, either positive for the proton or negative for the muon. I don't think that Piantelli has proved the the particle he is seeing is a

Eric-- What about 3 Li-6 going to 3 alphas and 1 D or 1 Li-7 and 2 Li-6 going to 3 alphas and 1 T. Maybe the higher binding energy of the D and/or the T would reduce the high per nucleon energy you are concerned about. Bob Cook From: Eric Walker Sent: Sunday, September 06, 2015 2:42 PM To:
