and tell me what you think. Is the method similar to the one
previously mentioned here with electrostatic methods?

With regards to catalyzing fusion, this is similar to what I have
proposed here:

http://www.mtaonline.net/~hheffner/DeflationFusionExp.pdf
except I suggest loading at extremely high temperatures so the
lattice can be operated at a hot temperature and still achieve the
orbital deformation required - no need then to go cryogenic. The
authors of the above article don't seem to have a very clear concept
as to why orbital compression should work. Magnesium or magnesium
alloys may provide an excellent lattice for that approach because it
requires loading at over 800 C. I also suggested electrostatic,
magnetic and other methods which can be used in combination with high
temperature loading.
