One observation about an important underlying assumption in Michel's
hypothesis, and that of Horace, which may be false.
Please have a close look at the famous SEM (scanning electron
microscope) image on the cover of Rothwell's translation of Mizuno (or
any SEM image of the active zone in LENR, such as those of Ken Shoulders).
These images are clear proof to me, although others may not agree, of an
implosion, not an explosion.
There is a conical vortex, a deep horn-like cavity and tunnel - NOT the
typical crater of an explosion.
Actual "explosions" never seem to happen in visual documentation of
LENR, as these images demonstrate; or at least there is no SEM image of
any crater AFAIK.
Because the bulk of the force in a real explosion is at the locus, which
rapidly diminishes on expansion - the result is the crater (bowl
cavity) appearance - NOT the horn-and-tunnel (which looks like the
negative of a tornado vortex) - huge difference.
This indicates that the main energy-release component of the LENR or
other supra-chemical reaction is *spin* or angular momentum, and not
spherical expansion.
Unfortunately, I could not find a large jpg image of the Mizuno cover
SEM on Google, but Amazon has a small image.
BTW - on a curious but related note: Dufour is now claiming that the
impetus or driving force for LENR is micro-gravity. That is, at
sub-angstrom dimensions, the force of gravity is massively increased.
The result is similar of perhaps the same as Frank Grimer's beta-aether.
