Jones— That’s a nice explanation.
But how does the “anomalous heat’ get out of the reaction site? Is it by spin coupling of the reacting coherent system, which includes the metal lattice?

This kind of isotope exchange is energetic and ends up looking like LENR but it relates to the zero point field and is non-nuclear. Actually, this subject area is not covered in the Ukrainian paper specifically, but maybe it should be. To digress further… Many experiments have shown that the (H/D) exchange reaction results in one-time exotherm as the heavier isotope replaces the lighter. The reaction is assumed to be chemical and self-limiting – not sequential and not robust. It would only be robust if it was made to be asymmetric and continuous instead of one-way. Some skeptics of LENR suggest that H/D exchange is the only source of heat of cold fusion and noot anomalous. Yet… they miss the point that the H/D exchange could be the source of anomalous heat in certain situations, and we have a strong hint of this already. When we focus on tight confinement in a metal matrix along with the densification process, we see how net gain can happen in theory. Although two fermions cannot occupy the same quantum state (Pauli exclusion) and two bosons can, fermions can change to become composite bosons and vice-versa. If they can do this very rapidly via fractional electron orbitals, everything becomes clearer. The see-saw change in identity (on fast scale from composite boson to fermion) is the key to anomalous heat. With a mix of dissolved H and D and a catalyst, when going in and out of the fractional state (UDH, UDD) the proton becomes bosonic on fractionalization, since it is bound at nuclear distances to an electron and gains half spin as a composite boson; whereas deuterium will become fermionic in the dense state as it gains spin. This situation will allow for sequential asymmetry when the fractionalization is coincident with the exchange reaction and both are in a rapid (planned) state of flux. Since bosons can occupy the same place, they adapt to moving into tight confinement readily and will displace fermions, but when “reinflated” with a change in identity to fermionic, they will be displaced, ad infinitum. You need both the exchange and the cross-identity due to fractionalization. The system is powered by the zero point field and that is the conceptual problem. At least it is a credibility problem for now. There are few believers in the proposition of zero point energy on a macro scale, since it has not yet been linked to any loading anomaly other this one: Miley’s paper for thermal gain due to heat release on both loading and unloading… http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/nets2012/pdf/3051.pdf Lovely paper … if the results could be trusted. “On the Nuclear Coupling of Proton and Electron” Krasnoholovets et al http://www.hrpub.org/download/20160530/UJPA6-18406680.pdf Abstract -- We study both experimentally and theoretically the creation of a new physical entity, a particle in which the proton and electron form a stable pair with a tiny size typical for a nucleon. This is a version/interpretation of fractional hydrogen in the role of virtual neutron. There are a few errors, and they make reference to some bogus research, but this is a very broad sweep and worth reading. Surprisingly well-written. No mention of W&L. They give Mills most of the credit – which they should. Too bad that Mills turns out to be such a failure as an inventor (as opposed to his success as a theorist) – since he was well-positioned to go down historically as the key figure in the field. His latest effort with the seam welder is ludicrous. Perhaps it will be a Ukrainian or Russian who will succeed with a usable LENR product. They have every incentive to do so, as the short summer will give way to early winter before you can say Buck Turgidson.
