small, between the proton size and the Heisenberg dimension of about 10^-35
cm. It may be that the wave of the proton is such that it can "fit inside"
the dimension of the single line of the Dirac sea and become a virtual
charge, combine with an electron and hence pop out of the constrained sea
(line) as an H with lots of extra energy.
------------------That is an intuitive way to look at the detail of how this extra dimensional modality could happen with protons. With a deuteron instead of a proton, and especially with the Mizuno experiment, the same M.O. seems to be not quite as elegant at first glance - but obviously, having both an electron and a positron transfer into 3-space from the Dirac sea provides a way to have two protons appear in place of one deuteron - and retain conservation of charge at the same time with more net energy. Unlike most observers of LENR, I'm of the firm opinion that there can exist several if not many modalities for gain happening at the same time in any experiment - of which the Dirac sea modality is but one. It seems to work better for hydrogen than for deuterium, on paper- however, the more one thinks about "the sea" in the context of Mizuno - the better the whole hypothesis sounds. There are so few satisfactory ways to explain what looks like deuterium fission, that this one could be the best. It would be very helpful to know that Mizuno's result (of deuterium splitting into two protons) was repeatable by another group - and to know exactly how much radiation is seen. I am assuming that some radiation is seen but that it is highly disproportional to the thermal output. If radiation (or transmutation) is not highly disproportional, then there could be several routes to gain in the Mizuno experiment.
