*Temperature regulation mechanism.* * *
High temperature is required to provide a vibrative movement in the walls of the erosive cavities formed on the surface of the nickel oxide nano-powder that are the epicenter of nuclear activity. These holes both open wide to allow the Rydburg hydrogen condensate crystals to enter and constricted to compress them to the state of fusion. The temperature of the metal lattice might well provide a gate keeping function that regulates the flow of ions into the locus of the nuclear reaction. A minimum temperature of the metal lattice is required to allow the smallest sized ions to enter the reaction zone. As the temperature rises and the mouths of the holes open wider, ever larger sized ions would be capable of participating in the reaction. I would speculate that at low temperatures in the metal lattice only small sized ions would enter and very light weight ash elements would be produced. As the average temperature rises the ash content would favor the heavier elements. * *
