Holmlid has left out the most important experimental detail.
What is the laser like? I suspect it is chirped into the exowatt range where anything can happen. This is a rich field that does not require any suppositions about dense hydrogen. Large accelerators became nearly obsolete by the chirped laser capabilities since 1998. The failure to describe the laser input casts a pall on everything he has posted in the last 20 years. ________________________________ From: Axil Axil <janap...@gmail.com> Sent: Monday, January 23, 2017 12:12 AM To: vortex-l Subject: Re: [Vo]:Fast particles I don.t think that Holmlid is producing a hydrogen plasma at the place where the LASER strikes the collection foil, because the Ultra Dense hydrogen on the collection foil is not ionized as it falls by gravity from the iron oxide catalyst into the collection foil, A plasma would be too energetic to allow that collection process, especially a wakefield energized plasma.

So if one had a cheap and efficient means of producing muons, then muon catalyzed D-D fusion might be economic. It seems you may have built such a particle accelerator, see https://phys.org/news/2015-11-discovery-enable-portable-particle.html The process upon which this is based bombards a very dense plasma, with a pulsed laser which seems to describe your experimental setup quite well. The particle accelerator might explain the energetic particles that you are detecting, while the muon catalyzed fusion may explain the excess energy. I might add that while muons catalyze fusion reactions, the same might also be true of negatively charged mesons, since they are even heavier than muons, so the tunneling time should be even further reduced. True, the lifetime of pions is very short, but this may not matter in a very dense plasma, since the density means that the travel distance to the next atom is also very short.
