Just a note to some of the newer Vorts who may be wondering how moderation
works in Vortex. Vortex is moderated, but only very lightly. The list
relies heavily upon the self-discipline of members to keep a courteous tone
and to moderate the amount of their own contributions. Ideally the tone of

Looking at the 2013 paper again, that is just one of two possibilities.
One possibility is that

Three additional points to add:
* I'm still waiting for a careful writeup of Mizuno's latest NiH/NiD work.
What we've seen are some slides. It seems premature at this point to draw too
many conclusions.
* We know relatively little about nickel systems compared to palladium systems.

Not if a neutrino is involved. (Not that I'm at all persuaded by the
