Stephen, yes that is interesting, but Gullstrom should have teamed up
with Holmlid, not Rossi.
Holmlid claims to have seen muons, and Rossi's claim is nickel and
lithium isotopic shifts. There is really no similarity. But basically
the paper is a sham, in that it does not present any experimental data
to support the hypothesis.
The paper can only have been presented by Rossi in a last ditch effort
to salvage a legal claim which appears to be dead-in-the-water.

Well one thing I found interesting is the light Sigma Mesons referred
to in this paper is I think around 500MeV.
This is quite close I think to the mass of the Kaons.
Could nucleon resonance of a Sigma Meson some how open the door to
Kaon emission?
There is a nucleon resonance window for Phi meson emission used by
Kaon factories such as Delphi and other such experiments but I suppose
this would require higher energies around 900MeV.

Well, this could actually win a prize - in the existential fiction
category. It is most reminiscent of Sartre's 'Being and Nothingness.'
The "Summary and Discussion" at the end essentially says it all: "The
needed parameters are not known from experiment" ....
This would not be the first time that a decent explanation is
desperately seeking to find a validating experiment, but there is a
logical disconnect midway through, with no attempt to integrate two
distinct topics... indicating that there is no there there.
Possibly a PR event in disguise... aimed at influencing an upcoming
jury trial

If I'm not wrong this coupling of isospin states of the sigma meson
could even have implications at nucleon level. Especially if it
really is the mediator of the strong force as has been speculated
over the last few decades.
If this theory turns out to be correct and if I understood correctly
that there is a long range coupling component under special
conditions I wonder if this could also have implications for
Holmlids ideas and experiments?

Finally a theory coupling electron orbital energy states with
nuclear energy states involving magnetic fields and isotopic shifts
to lower potential energy.
It fits the LENR multibody reaction model and explains the lack of
energetic particles associated with two- body nuclear reactions.
I give it a thumbs up!
And it may be in time for consideration by the distinguished
Swedish Committee that evaluates scientific advances for 2017.
