*Piantelli has used both deuterium and nitrogen gas as a means to stop a LENR reaction. Both are NMR active and would be expected to suppress the LENR reaction. DGT has used Argon as a suppressant for their LENR reaction. Argon is NMR quiet and yet does not support the LENR reaction; the reason is not yet known. *
*Spin polarized atomic Deuterium will form a dimer that is similar to cooper pairing. This dimer may be NMR quiet and therefore capable of supporting the LENR reaction. * *http://www2.ju.edu.jo/sites/Academic/humamg/Lists/Published%20Research/Attachments/43/T-matrix_and_effective_scattering_in_spin-polarized_atomic_deuterium.pdf <http://www2.ju.edu.jo/sites/Academic/humamg/Lists/Published%20Research/Attachments/43/T-matrix_and_effective_scattering_in_spin-polarized_atomic_deuterium.pdf>* On Mon, Jun 23, 2014 at 3:17 AM, Axil Axil <[email protected]> wrote: > A cooper pairing of deuterium nuclei with total spin of 0 might be LENR > active. > > > On Mon, Jun 23, 2014 at 3:12 AM, Axil Axil <[email protected]> wrote: > >> deuterium is a NMR active isotope an cannot participate in the LENR >> process. >> >> This still leaves open the possibility that a compound containing >> deuterium with 0 total spin(NMR inactive) may be LENR active. >> >> Could it be that over these 25 years, people have be under an fusion >> inspired illusion that a Deuterium LENR reaction produces helium? >> >> Hard to believe isn't it? >> >> >> On Mon, Jun 23, 2014 at 2:09 AM, Axil Axil <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> *Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a physical phenomenon in which >>> nuclei in a magnetic field absorb and re-emit electromagnetic radiation. >>> This energy is at a specific resonance frequency which depends on the >>> strength of the magnetic field and the magnetic properties of the isotope >>> of the atoms; in practical applications, the frequency is similar to VHF >>> and UHF television broadcasts (60–1000 MHz).
