Harry [snip] Calculation of the energy yield / atom would actually tell us a lot, because there is a considerable difference in yield between the various theories. I.e.
Electron shrinkage (e.g. Mills): ev-keV Fusion: MeV Complete conversion of matter to energy: GeV There is roughly a factor of 1000 between each theory, so the energy / atom could be a good indicator. Even if the measured value lies somewhere in between, it would likely be an indication that the energy is coming from a combination of the above, and even indicate which combination is most likely.
