Post 11 Under the Rydberg ion theory of cold fusion, Rydberg crystals will be ionized very easily. They are comprised of highly excited and energetic atoms that are all close to large scale group ionization. Because of their collective high excitation level, Rydberg crystals will ionize a lot more readily than ordinary matter. As the ambient temperature increases, the probability of ionization of the crystals also increases.
Because of their electrostatic nature, Rydberg crystal will tend to stick to the lattice surface like lint on your outfit or be integrated into the surface of the lattice near the surface depending on the type of LENR being considered. When the temperature of the lattice rises, more and more Rydberg crystals will become ionized creating a large surplus of electron holes on the surface of the lattice. As the temperature rises, so will the nuclear fusion based heat produced by the ionized Rydberg crystals. At the same time, resistance to electric flow will decrease because of increased “hole conduction”. The surface of the lattice acts as a slowly forming ionizing plasma where the resistance to electric flow is gradually reduced in direct proportion to the ionization level of the Rydberg crystals. Here is some experimental verification of this type of Rydberg crystal behavior See: http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/STAFF/VISITING_FELLOWS&PROFESSORS/pdf/MileyClusterRydbLPBsing.pdf Ultrahigh-density deuterium of Rydberg matter clusters for inertial confinement fusion targets Quoted as follows: *Rydberg matter was predicted and measured in gases where a static clustering of protons or deuterons to comparably high densities is generated with number densities up to 10^^23 cm-3 (Badiei et al. 2006). In contrast to gases, the appearance of ultra-high density clusters in crystal defects in solids were observed in several experiments where such configurations of very high density hydrogen states could be detected from SQUID measurements of magnetic response and conductivity (Lipson et al. 2005) indicating as special state with superconducting properties. These high density clusters have a long life time and with deuterons and – in contrast to protons – as being bosons which should be in a state of Bose-Einstein-Condensation (BEC) at room temperature (Miley et al. 2009,2009a).* What Miley actually saw was a nearly ionized Rydberg crystal that behaves as plasma.
