Hi guys, This discussion gave me a wild general idea for a series of possible experiments. Many folks have talked about the central feature of Lenr maybe involving Casimir cavities, as well as graphene and similar lattice materials. Lots of scientists lately have reported many Casimir like properties of graphene. Now also several groups have not only made macroscopic length graphene films, but also some interesting 3D printed forms (e.g. C. Zhu ..... M. Worsley. Highly compressible 3D periodic graphene aerogel microlattices. Nat. Comm 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms7962; ; J. H. Kim et al 2015. 3D printing of graphene oxide nanowires. Adv. Mtls 27(1):157-61.; Zhang et al 2016. 3D printing of graphene aerogels. Small 12:1702-8.). How about assembling a stack of graphene sheets of various forms, in a 'box' with hydrogen (in some form), along with maybe some of the other catalysts, then compress the hell out of it. And hit it with lasers, or arcs, or high EMF and all the rest too. I'd pay to watch that! regards, ken
