Not really bad news. Ed Storms came up with a theory that fusion
happen in cracks of the lattice. Summing that, with what I see in the
slides, they are thinking that a BEC of D is forced to be fused by the
fractures. So, LENR is a kind of variation of fractofusion.
D, I happen to be right now editing a video interview with Ed Storms
conducted after his NPA talk - 47 minutes long!
I'm quite sure that he distinguishes fracto-fusion from LENR. They are
not at all related in his mind.
He believes, by definition, any process that emits this type of
radiation is not LENR. If a process releases this type of radiation,
then it is by definition, related to hot fusion.
In *An Explanation of Low-energy Nuclear Reactions (Cold
Fusion)*published in JCMNS #9 and which you can find here
http://coldfusionnow.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Storms-JCMNS-published.pdf,
he writes:
"2.2. Additional requirements for evaluating an explanation
Behavior initiated by hot fusion needs to be identified and not used to
explain LENR. Because both hot fusion and LENR can occur in the same
materials and sometimes at the same time, the results of these two
independent reactions need to be separated. Crack formation is known to
initiate nuclear reactions in material containing deuterium. This
process, called fractofusion [42--45], creates brief high voltage in the
crack that can cause fusion by the hot fusion process with the expected
energetic nuclear products.
Because neutrons result, they are frequently detected as brief pulses,
which must be carefully evaluated before they are attributed to LENR.
Another example of potential hot fusion is obtained when solid materials
are bombarded by energetic deuterons [46--48]. The resulting hot
fusion-like reaction
is sensitive to the electron concentration in the material when applied
energy is low. This is not an example of LENR because the reaction
products are very energetic and are the ones expected to result from
conventional hot fusion, not LENR.A clear separation between how LENR
and hot fusion are caused to happen must be maintained because entirely
different mechanisms are apparently operating."
Holy moly, what's happening to me?
