Axil The Chinese paper said: >>>The calculated dispersion curves are shown in Fig. 4. Different from that of >>>the planar structure, in the cylindrical case the electron beam line >>>intersects with
dispersion curves at two points of the two modes.<< It seems to say that the SPP phenomenon can occur on plane surface as well as a cylindrical surface. Is this your understanding? It makes CNT even more interesting as a location for SPP to occur.

I have seen in research papers and have posted about 10^15 watts per cm^2 maximum seen in nanoplasmonic research. I suspect that 10^20 watts per cm^2 is produced inside the Ni/H reactor because of the optimized nanoparticle configurations used. This will produce a magnetic field at 10^16 tesla.

Whoa. SPP can produce a radiation power density 100 megawatts per cm^2? Is that a typo? That is quite a shock, in more ways than one .<g> even if the authors had somehow missed it by a factor of 100. the only question we should be asking ourselves is: why isn't everyone in LENR jumping on implementing SPP into their experiments ? Perhaps the reputation of the Terahertz Research Center, School of Physical Electronics, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China is not considered by some to be credible? No. methinks the core problem is plain old inertia and smugness. of the First World variety. BTW - in terms of education, most of the authors of this paper were probably educated here. The State Dept says that of the 1,777 physics doctorates awarded in 2011, a typical year, over a third 743 went to temporary visa holders - most of whom come from Asia. That should come as no surprise to anyone walking around the top University physics departments. From: MarkI-ZeroPoint http://www.ece.umd.edu/~antonsen/Data/IRMMW-THz%202013/Extended%20Abstracts/2013-09-03-Tu/TU12-6.pdf Thanks for posting that reference. And I might draw your attention to my posting a few mins ago. "Of Metronomes and Molecules..." Once again, we find ourselves bumping into each other down in this rabbit hole. ;-) Yes, looks like there is an emergent meme within the vortices of cyberspace which we are tuned into this week . another angle on the metronome effect would a new kind of phonon cooling (as in laser cooling). BTW - if in a nanotube experiment - there does exist a "virtual rabbit hole" for "virtual cooling" in which bosons at high temperature can condense, then the inside diameter of the CNT could be such a space. A Cooper pair of electrons is a composite boson. Thus there could be a hybrid or two step regime for LENR which is based on electron acceleration, via CNT entrapment. (not to mention other possibilities).
