Consider that the DDL state is regarded as being about 511
keV less than H in normal ground state. The mass energy difference between
2 ground state H atoms and a ground state D atom is 1.66 MeV… So, now the
H#2 molecule may only be 1.66 - 2(.511) - (.1) = 538 keV different than the
ground state D. Agreed. This 538 keV is still too large to go unnoticed without a step-down process but it does bring to mind the other possibility which itself is the downshifting mechanism itself – especially if the this DDL state is, in essence – dark matter. Mills and others believe this to be true. The reason that is important for LENR is that there is this emerging meme in mainstream cosmology - that dark matter emits (possibly as a decay) at 3.5 keV. This signal is picked up all over the cosmos as a mystery line, and the emerging view is that it comes from dark matter. If you google [“3.5 keV” “dark matter” ] you will be amazed at the mainline articles out there, not to mention the fringe - or at least I was amazed because of the cross connection to DDL. Of course, almost no one in cosmology has yet made that precise connection. You heard it first on vortex :-) If we consider that a bound pair of DDLs with 538 keV excess can decay by emitting x-rays at 3.5 keV, then either fuse or something else - our problem is solved. Actually the spectra is probably higher energy in condensed matter, higher due to red shift of what is seen in cosmology. But in any case, radiation abound 4 keV is not going to be seen with typical meters, whereas 538 keV would be obvious. Thus the 3.5-4 keV x-ray could be the signature of the Rossi effect, and no one yet realizes it. Jones
