I think you may have negated your original argument
wrt the Arrata experiment.
Fast in this case is 23.8 MeV each (assuming 4 x D
- 2 Alpha), about as fast as it gets.
I will grant that I should have said very few
gammas rather than no gammas
With alphas at that energy, there will

ERGO Arrata did not detect any, and ERGO your
suggested reaction simply cannot be the operative
mechanism in his device.

I prefer to let nature decide the issue.

Rightly or wrongly, that is the only view of fusion
which is accepted by physics, and it can accommodate
all of LENR when properly (re)interpreted.
If you do not need to invent a new model from the
ground up, then why

Robin,

0.04g D2 is 0.04g D, and D is 2g/mol, so that should be 0.04/2 mol * 6E23
atoms/mol = 1.2 E22 atoms

Where are the gammas then?
I see two possibilities (and I suspect Arata of adhering to the first).
1) The cluster of four deuterium atoms creates 2 alphas concurrently (or 1 Be8*
that subsequently fissions).
--- Robin:
This means two fast alphas, with equal energy, and
opposite momentum, and presumably no gammas.
On first read, that is simply impossible, Robin,
unless I am missing something. The nature of fast
alphas is to create copious gammas on interaction with
condensed matter. Unless by fast

So what? The power level of the heat from impure radium is far lower
than most chemical reactions with same mass of fuel. That proves nothing.

I have found the exchange of opinions expressed so far educational.
Let me pose a question I don't think has been explored adequately
Does anyone here imagine it conceivable that Arata's experiment points
to a practical way of scaling up the generation of heat to commercial
and industrial
Good question, Steven. If this method is as good as claimed, it is the
best and only method I believe that can result in a commercial device.
Earlier use of palladium black by Arata showed similar behavior. Using
this material, McKubre (SRI) replicated the claimed heat production and
produced
I read somewhere in his next experiment he plans on boiling water to make a
cup of tea.
