Joshua,
If this is a real phenomenon, might it not involve complex many-body
effects that first-order approximations can't capture?
Also, since this is a NASA patent, doesn't it have to go through a fairly
rigorous review process? and have some empirical data backing it?

Sure, but saying it's complex does not make it plausible. WL don't actually
predict any

In this and previous posts I said a few times that the energy needed for
electron capture by a proton is 780 MeV. That would be something, but it's
actually 780 keV, which is still a lot, and is about 10 times bigger than
what's needed for d-d fusion (less than 100 keV). I hope anyone who

I did recognize, but even so, I am not sure what you mean by energy needed
for capture. For example, in large nuclei, the required energy is 0, since
k-capture doesn't need to be induced or stimulated.

IMO, if Rossi feels he has successfully pocketed
a few select corporations who believe in his technology
he would give a fart about trying to appease the
scientific establishment.

He never did a fart about that. If he has customers,
all the more reason to ignore
