In LENR, there are always nearby bodies to share with.
Typical separation distances within a lattice are on the order of 1 Angstrom. It takes light 3E-19 seconds to travel this distance. Typical nuclear reaction times are order 1E-23 seconds. I.e. 30000 times faster. In short, long before another atom at normal distances could help out (or even knew his brother was in trouble), either T or 3He would have been the result of D-D fusion. In short, in order to make a difference, the "helping-hand" already needs to be "at hand" before the reaction begins. (unless momentum can be "tunneled", and the tunneling process itself is inherently FTL). Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
