Robin, I respectfully disagree... I think the 'norm' is that the different forces do NOT interact, unless under extreme or unusual or specific conditions. I.e., for chemistry (electron-level interactions) and nuclear interactions, the ZPE is pretty much a non-player. But then, wasn't it Puthof

Yes, Piantelli's patent is certainly more "enabling" than Rossi's... I think the most interesting statement in the patent excerpt is: "...heating is needed to cause lattice vibrations, i.e. phonons, whose energy is higher than a first activation energy threshold, through non-linear and an harmon
