I agree with Axil’s comments about micro and nano domains. However I would add that the domains are what I call coherent QM systems that can initiate the change of nuclear potential energy/angular momentum to phonic lattice vibrations (thermal energy) of the coherent QM system with minor

IMHO the Holmild reactiom is not LENR—LOW energy nuclear reaction nor a LATTICE assisted nuclear reaction. The high energy particles belie LENR. The key question is: “HOW DO ALL THE NEUTRAL PARTICLES GET THEIR SIGNIFICANT ENERGY”. It seems from Holmild’s description of the experiment that

Does anyone understand how 75% of the particles produced are neutral with significant kinetic energy? It would seem that the neutral particles must come from decay of another particle with significant kinetic energy to start with, and that the neutral particle shares some of that energy and

If the muons are charged, they can be focused and polarized in a magnetic field. Hence they can be made to react more readily with polarized electrons in a lattice and their energy harvested in a cylindrical catching device. ARE THE MUONS NEUTRAL OR CHARGED that Holmlid claims? Bob Cook
