At this early juncture, it looks like the LENR reaction is driven by an electromagnetic force. What is that force. The electromagnetic field can be viewed as the combination of an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by stationary charges, and the magnetic field by moving charges (currents); these two are often described as the sources of the field. The way in which charges and currents interact with the electromagnetic field is described by Maxwell's equations and the Lorentz force law.
But is LENR an electrostatic effect or a magnetic effect? Dr. Kim posits that LENR is basically an electrostatic effect. I have vacillated on this point incessantly and I have changed my opinion often but with the guidance of Nanoplasmonic principles and in the face of strong experimental evidence, I now believe that LENR is a magnetic effect. This belief is not only informed by what I know about the Ni/H reactor, but what has been seen in other types of LENR expressions. This belief is rooted in the suspicion that the ultimate LENR causation must be distilled down to one deeply embedded physical principle. It is informed by the belief that all LENR in its myriad forms are rooted in one common causation mechanism. Ken Shoulders spent his career looking into all things EMF, and as a pioneer and trailbreaker on this subject, he was at the forefront of this subject and was way ahead of his time. The experiments of Ken shoulders led him to the concept of the Exotic Vacuum Objects or EVO. An EVO can be conceived of as an atom without a nucleus, or as a spherical monopole oscillator. EVs exhibit soliton behavior with number densities equal to Avagadro's number. These non-neutral electron plasmoids contain various levels of binding energy which exceed that of atoms, and allows for new types of reactions with matter. I believe that the Ni/H reactor produces EVOs by the trillions when it converts heat into nano-plasmoids. EVOs are a magnetic thing in which electrons flow in a vortex ring. It is clearly not an electrostatic structure which by its very nature must be static and immovable. EVOs can move. This ability to move from its place of creation has been seen in proton-21 experiments, cavitation experiments, and experiments involving exploding metal foils. This particle like concentrations of charged currents have been imaged in a number of LENR experiments. The experimentalists that observed them thought that these strange structures were particles but they were actually long lived dark mode quasiparticles of negative charge contained tightly in a vortex that had traveled far from the place of their creation. See Prof. Alan Tennant discovered magnetic monopoles http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=zgios9zEuJ4 And explanation of this recent work http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=zgios9zEuJ4 The Ni/H reactor provides a mechanism that transforms dipole motion into coherent and entangled magnetic monopole vortex motion. This resonance mechanism supports quantum amplification of this anapole magnetic process because of the regular and globally periodic thermally based motion of the dipoles throughout the volume of the reactor’s reaction chamber. http://phys.org/news/2013-08-skyrmions-electronics.html Controlling skyrmions for better electronics These monopole spin vortexes are known as skyrmions This is a special condition where monopole motion is tremendously enhanced in the Ni/H reactor similar to how specific atomic configuration enhances monopole formation in its lattice. This monopole formation process is essentially unlimited. The Ni/H reactor produces a magnetic anapole singularity in which unimaginable magnetic power is concentrated into a volume that is the size of a molecule. It is this super-strong anapole magnetic field that can disrupt the Higgs superconductor in the subatomic particles that make up the nucleus of the atom.
