Please allow me to make two more points. The paper says: *Summing up, we have discovered a new attractive force between two ions that are shielded by degenerate electrons in an unmagnetized quantum plasma.*
Axil says: It could be that when a magnetic field is applied to the plasma, this attractive forse is disrupted and will negate both the proton cooper pairs and the Rydberg ions. When DGT applies a magnetic field the degenerate electrons are disrupted causing a failure of the Rossi reaction. Also, when the pressures of the hydrogen envelop is increased, this enhances the production of degenerate electrons which increases the associated power of the Rossi reaction.
