Thanks Ed, but throughout the papers it refers to temperatures of 773K (500C), and 460C. are not the temps for 'hot' fusion in the 10s of thousands of degs and higher??? Can U explain please.
There is also this statement which seems to indicate that a specific temperature will optimize the reaction rate: "However, the enhancement of chemonuclear reactions depends supersensitively on the temperature of Li-alloy liquid as seen in Eq.(7). -Mark From: Edmund Storms [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 1:23 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Edmund Storms Subject: Re: [Vo]:Chemonuclear Transitions This paper and many others like it describe how HOT fusion is enhanced when it occurs in a chemical lattice. This study has no relationship to cold fusion because the same nuclear products are not formed. While the lattice enhances the hot fusion rate, it does so only at very low energy where the rate is already very small. Here are some other studies. Ed 1.

The abstract for just one section of the book sounds extremely interesting and encouraging: "Our decadal basic research confirmed: Chemonuclear fusion of light nuclei in the metallic Li-liquids hold the common mechanism with pycnonuclear reactions in the metallic-hydrogen liquids in stars e.g. white-dwarf supernova progenitors. Both reactions are incorporated with the ionic reactions forming compressed united atoms and induce enormous rate enhancement caused by the thermodynamic activity of the liquids. For the chemonuclear fusion of hydrogen clusters in the Li permeated metal hydrogen systems, the rate enhancement of 2x10e44 is expected via coherent collapse of hydrogen-hydrogen bonds. Chemonuclear fusion releases a power over one million times as dense as the solar interior power density in the metal hydrogen systems, e.g a 1-mole NiH system is capable of some kW output. The fusion is followed by the successive reactions mostly with Li metal." Some key phrases: - "forming compressed united atoms" [me: perhaps support for hydrinos?] - "induce enormous rate enhancement" - "rate enhancement of 2x10e44 is expected" - "Chemonuclear fusion releases a power over one million times as dense as the solar interior" - "1-mole NiH system is capable of some kW output" Can't wait to read the whole book! -Mark Iverson -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 11:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Vo]:Chemonuclear Transitions Courtesy of http://lenrnews.eu -- The Svedberg Laboratory of Uppsala U. in Sweden recently published - "THE NATURE OF THE CHEMONUCLEAR TRANSITION" - Hidetsugu Ikegami http://www.tsl.uu.se/digitalAssets/142/142245_tsl-note-2012-61.pdf - in which the author proposes that in some environments s-orbital electron dynamics greatly enhance certain fission and fusion reactions. {{ EXTRACT: The Nature of the Chemonuclear Transition In any nuclear transition undergoing gently compared to atomic transitions, e.g. nuclear collisions, in its turn, nuclear fusion or fusion reactions going on more slowly than the gyration speed of electrons ZvB in the 1s-orbital of reactant atoms, the electrons adjust their electronic states continuously and smoothly to the nuclear transitions or reactions. Here Z and vB denote the atomic number of reactant atoms/nuclei colliding with light ions and Bohr speed respectively. Thereby united nuclear and atomic transitions are likely to take place. In fact such united transitions have been observed in the united atom formation in the high energy heavy ion collision experiments through detecting the characteristic X-rays of united atoms in which pairs of colliding nuclei coexist at the center of common 1s-electron orbitals [1].}} -- Lou Pagnucco
