Good analysis Jones.
What might the natural frequency be? Metallic photons resonate at about 10 exp
12 hertz (tera hertz). A metal highly loaded with hydrogen resonates a bit
higher at about 2X10 exp 13 hertz. 2X10 exp 13 hertz times 50x10 exp -9 (50
nano meters) equals about million meters per second. That speed, according to
my analysis, equals the velocity of sound in the nucleus.
Finally; The constants of the motion converge in a Bose condensate stimulated
at that dimensional frequency (velocity).

Subject: [Vo]:Photon "storage" and quasi-coherence in alumina
A valid question for better understanding the thermodynamics of the dogbone
type of reactor is “why alumina”?
Apparently Parkhomov does not use pure alumina, and his reactor shows the same
kind of optical translucence as do others – which is an intense glow,
especially at the threshold temperature, which appears to be 1050-1100 C. This
temp. corresponds to a wavelength which has been associated with the surface
plasmon phenomenon, so it is no accident that it could also be a threshold
value in LENR.
Perhaps alumina is also used simply because a ceramic is needed to limit
thermal transfer, but there could be a reason related to “photonic storage.”
There are a number of choices for tubes – and the proper optical dynamics of
the tube could make a profound difference in the outcome due to the fact that
photons of light are necessary to produce the surface plasmon phenomenon. These
photons need a level of coherence, but possibly less than full laser-like
coherence. This is where “super-radiance” comes into play.
There is a new and growing field of technology called “slow photons” or photon
storage (not to be confused with optical storage). Essentially some materials –
often based on alumina (since it is translucent for some frequencies of IR)
will store photons for a significant period of delay. The material is
essentially crammed full of photons, which come from incandescence of the
resistance wire and are slowed and stored.
These photons go into the tube and bounce around for long periods of time,
without loss, before emerging as the glow we see. As the photons bounce around
internally, they begin to cohere in wavelength – in a similar way that a gas
laser operates – which is based on rays of light bouncing between mirrors.
The dogbone reactor at about 1100C can be described as an unfocused quasi-laser.
Wiki has a decent reference

BTW – surrounding the dogbone reactor with a steel tube, which has been
polished on the interior surface to a mirror finish – would likely make the
device much more efficient… if… the operative mechanism for gain is SPP.
