It certainly will if you post the cached URL. Here's the link with some staying power. http://xxx.lanl.gov/abs/cond-mat/0505026 With 25 documents already filed, Widom will not be so easy to bump. I do smell a good story for Steve K. in this though *grin* K. -----Original Message----- From: Jed Rothwell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 04, 2005 5:53 PM To: vortex-L@eskimo.com Subject: Windom & Larsen paper David Nagel thinks this paper may be germane to CF, for obvious reasons: http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/cond-mat/pdf/0505/0505026.pdf Ultra Low Momentum Neutron Catalyzed Nuclear Reactions on Metallic Hydride Surfaces A. Widom, L. Larsen Lattice Energy LLC, 175 North Harbor Drive, Chicago IL 60601 ABSTRACT Ultra low momentum neutron catalyzed nuclear reactions in metallic hydride system surfaces are discussed. Weak interaction catalysis initially occurs when neutrons (along with neutrinos) are produced from the protons which capture "heavy" electrons. Surface electron masses are shifted upwards by localized condensed matter electromagnetic fields. Condensed matter quantum electrodynamic processes may also shift the densities of final states allowing an appreciable production of extremely low momentum neutrons which are thereby eciently absorbed by nearby nuclei. No Coulomb barriers exist for the weak interaction neutron production or other resulting catalytic processes. I am surprised they managed to sneak this into the archive. I predicted will soon be yanked out. - Jed
