Axil, I am not confident that the fact that there is little kinetic energy remaining after the collision is the reason for the low level of gamma radiation. I understand that many of the productive fusion events associated with hot fusion happen at the tail end of the thermal distributions. In these events there would also be very little excess collision energy available.
I have a feeling that the reason that the energy is released softly is due to the large degree of coupling between the nuclei in a dense metal matrix. A typical plasma gas fusion environment is far, far less dense and the coupling much weaker. The type of soft energy release I am speaking about would occur after the initial fusion while Ed's type of reaction releases the lower energy radiation ahead of the actual fusion event. The two processes are different. My thought process concerning this particular situation is related to the observation that radioactive half life appears to be dependent upon the environment that the energetic nucleus is located within. My hope is that the energy can be extracted slowly instead of in one large burst. I am thinking about sharing among the nearby nuclei. I am seeking other forms of nuclear reactions that demonstrate this slow energy release behavior. LENR might represent the only sample, but I suspect there should be others.

Mixent - kineticenergy of nuclear collision. Axil – EMF- namely charge concentration and anapole magnetism. The defeat of the coulomb barrier can’t be kineticenergy because from the experience gained with the kinetic collisions of nuclei we know that theresultant nucleus would be left excited by the kinetic energy of that nuclear collisionand affect the combined nucleus by exciting it leaving a radioactive isotope as an end product. Internal rearrangement of the combined nuclei byEMF does not carry excess energy of collision into the reaction therefore no radioactive isotope is produced On Fri, Jul 12, 2013 at 7:01 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: In reply to Axil Axil's message of Sun, 7 Jul 2013 02:48:07 -0400: Hi Axil, [snip] >This condition exists when dipole excitation form on the surface of a metal >surrounded by a dielectric material.
