Hi,
This http://www.physorg.com/news9639.html could be used to create
a conducting material with surface holes of 45.58 nm. This size
should act as a resonant cavity for 27.2 eV, making the material a
permanent Mills catalyst, potentially with a power output of kWs /
cm^2.

Awesome! Shows the power of an interdisciplinary team.
Our old associate from vortex, Peter Gluck, has some good ideas along
the lines of interdisciplinary teams. Here is his abstract from
ICCF-12:

Developing Creative Thinking Methodologies for CMNS, aiming Complete
Understanding
and Technology Level Reproducibility

For the time given- autumn 2005, the condensed matter nuclear
phenomena of potential technological interest,
i.e. heat excess, can be characterized as a scientific miracle
(despite the certainty of their existence) because
they cannot be explained completely in the frame of the actual
paradigm of physics, and as a technological
embryo, due to lack of reproducibility. In plain words, CMNS is not
well understood and cannot be controlled
well technologically. A recent survey performed by Steven Krivit and
this author, demonstrates this
convincingly [1] There are some chances that both understanding and
reproducibility will be solved by
serendipity- that is, one of the known or unknown groups doing
systematic experimentation will find by chance
the key, the secrets of practical, usable heat generation, either for
a wet system (electrolysis) or- even better, for
a gas phase system.
However, more than 16 years of such effort and many failures show
that CMNS is a really difficult problem
and for finding a solution we need actually a new level of thinking,
new ideas and concepts, a creative
paradigm.
Some essential features of this thinking are: the acceptance of the
extreme complexity of the phenomena, their
multi-level -phase and -step dynamics including electronic and
nuclear effects- all these leading to the
impossibility to describe CMNS by a single theory. (This situation is
similar to that of photosynthesis or of
nitrogen fixation, that are also not completely understood and can
not be reproduced and industrialized)
An other essential part of the new paradigm is the use of the huge
quantity of negative information accumulated
in the field, by converting it to positive knowledge. Why something
does not work is an information as valuable
as knowing when it works and why.
The author has applied the creative thinking methods as summarized in
[2] and revealed in [3]. as well as his
own original ones, in order to elaborate a new experimental strategy
that will be discussed with the colleagues at
ICCF-12. Besides the creation of active sites, their protection
against destruction is an essential point of the new
strategy.
