I wouldn't be surprised if this compound nanowire produced some LENR activity in the absence of hydrogen went temperatures got above 400C.
The silver would be replaced with nickel, however. http://www.upenn.edu/pennnews/news/penn-researchers-use-nanoplasmonic-whispering-gallery-break-emission-time-record-semiconductors On Mon, Jul 1, 2013 at 2:11 PM, Roarty, Francis X <[email protected] > wrote: > Hi Mark,**** > > Ok not cavities.
