Nice reference from Berkeley. The Nano Ni in the Rossi system may provide the necessary confinement of electrons to split them into spinons and holons. In the Ni system the low energy (.43 ev and 1.4 ev) may make distribution throughout the matrix possible with a host of split electrons participating in fractionation of the mass energy released in a Ni-H reaction. The energy would be distributed by re-establishment of whole electrons with spin and charge and resulting lattice vibrations. The ash of the reaction would be the new whole electrons along with the copper or whatever was formed from the Ni-H combination.

You can quantify the holon as the mass of the electron but can you quantify the orbiton? Terry, Here is some relevant information. http://www-als.lbl.gov/index.php/ring-leaders/234-first-direct-observation-of-spinons-and-holons.html Not sure if it can be interpreted as bolstering the case for the spinon being relevant to LENR. I wish it were possible to quantify how spin coupling would add thermal energy, since it seems that otherwise there could be some validity to the hypothesis.
