That's interesting about the xtal structure. Many sites have it wrong
including:

The AEH theory you present makes some very good points. Most of the
energy in the ZPF lies in the upper frequencies and some mechanism
operating on those small wavelengths is necessary to extract that
energy. You also explain how we can see excess energy from the Ni
lattice, something which has always bothered me. And if atomic H
cannot enter the lattice structure without ionization, your argument
looks quite solid. <g>
It was Penn State who recently manipulted H within the lattice of Pd:

So, one wants to explore the migration of the H nucleus into the
lattice. If we use the forumula R=Ro*A^1/3 assume the proton is a
sphere (although it is really bound quarks) we get a radius of
1.2*10^-18 cm for the nucleus; which certainly fits into the lattice.
Furthering this thought, I see that you used Puthoff's ZPE virtual mass
density of 10^94 g/cm^3 based on the Planck cutoff wavelength. If we
really jump out on a limb here and use the proton mass of 1.6726^10-30
g, we can calculate the mass density of the proton. Clearly the ZPF is
many orders of magnitude higher than the mass density of the proton.
This certainly jives with others concept of the aether at any instant
in time. It also lends justification to Grimer's Beta-atmosphere
analogy.
The current cosmic argument on the ZPF is whether it is dominated by
virtual fermions or virtual bosons. The former would represent "dark
energy" and the latter "dark matter". Their ratio could explain some
recent cosmic anomalies.

However, I noticed in the crystallography page they referred to a CPP
structure, not FCC for Pd. In this structure the atomic "balls" all
push right up against each other.
