Low gas pressure would also reduce the heat transfer coeff. between the Ni mesh and the wall of the reactor—increasing the thermal gradient and flux of high temperature photons which would increase or reduce resonant phonic vibrations in the Ni lattice and or resonance with spin energy states of the various isotopes present. (Small changes in the B fields at nuclei would change the respective nuclear spin energy states. as occurs in NMR machines, creating coupling to the phonic lattice energy states and allowing a change of nuclear potential to lattice kinetic energy.)

At this stage neither of them was aware of things to come within a few months of time which made a big difference in the ease of going to a robust level of gain. It is very helpful to put the 4+ years of research into historical perspective. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkTwecPeNe4 The most striking thing to me from this presentation is that Mizuno was using the nickel mesh coated with palladium early on with modest success - but did not see the big breakthrough until going to a lower pressure regime (and allowing the reactor itself to heat up.) Jones PS – again it is looking more and more like the low gas pressure could be the most important new parameter for success. To me this has to be related to the mean free path being extended to a resonance level with the IR input. The change to low pressure then favors the plasmon/polariton explanation - which may eventually turn up in hybrid for the mechanism which forms the dense clusters. Note – both Mills and Holmlid have used the low gas pressure regime for two decades or more.
