One of the major functions that LENR must fulfill is the reception, concentration, and amplification of energy from the external environment and the conversion of that power into magnetism. That external energy is light in one form or another.
In LENR engineering, the structure that first captures the light energy is the lattice substrate. Without this substrate, LENR does not happen unless the source of light is very powerful. Three examples of this substrate and their associated systems are as follows: In the Rossi’s E-Cat, the Lattice is the 100 micron nickel particle that Rossi produces in fuel preprocessing. This particle is an antenna that optimally receives infrared light(heat) and converts this light energy into dipole motion. This electron motion produces an alternating current at high frequency. The next example is Holmlid’s iridium powder holder that holds iron oxide potassium particles. This metal lattice optimally absorbs light in the green-blue to UV range. This lattice will also convert this high frequency light into alternating current. The structure that converts and amplifies this alternating current into magnetism is nano particles of hydrogen, potassium, or lithium. This rydberg matter are nanowires that only allows this alternating current to flow in one direction. This EMF power can only collect into balls of power. These particles also mix electrons and light photons together to form polaritons. At the tips of the nanowires and the points of were they touch each other, vortexes of polaritons form these rings of EMF are call solitons of polaritons (SPP). It is these rings of EMF energy that store large amounts of power and produce magnetic beams that cause the LENR effect. They are black holes of EMF where energy goes in but does not come out. Another antenna method that seems to work is the metal foam powder holders that DGT came up with. This network of fine nickel wires acts like a backplane that caries the received EMF produced by the spark that DGT used to pump EMF power into the 5 micron nickel particles. DGT also produced rydberg matter which generated the SPPs. Without the lattice that receives and directs the EMF into the nanopowder, a powerful light source such as a laser will be powerful enough to produce LENR in just nanopowder alone. This particular behavior was observed in experiments where a laser irradiated gold nanopowder dissolved in water. The uranium and thorium salts that was dissolved in that water underwent a fission reaction. This says that muons where produced to canalize fission instead of neutrons. On the other hand, Holmlid does not need a laser to produce muons because the iridium powder holder is an antenna that is sensitive enough to receive and concentrate light from his lab’s florescent lights. But the gold powder which does not have a lattice substrate to help it, would not react to generate muons using just room lighting; these nanoparticles require a powerful light source like a laser to produce the magnetic power strong enough to generate muons.
