Jurg— The reaction I had in mind was Be-8 decay as a result of LENR involving Li-7 and a H. The back to back energetic alphas from decay of Be-8 are pretty well validated IMHO,

All nuclear magnetic flux is symmetric! Only in a case where e.g. 3-He 3-H would be produced out of D*-D* there can be a "small" kinetic part. A different case is the Holmlid reaction, where we see a disproportion of D*x clusters with Kaon/Pion/Muon decay of certain protons where as others can go to alphas. Proving LENR with kinetic alpha detection (Mayer Boss) was one of the main historic errors for the failure of the LENR confirmation. Direct measurement of 4-He was always successful. Just forget standard model explanations as it does not account for the nuclear mass being EM mass. J.W.

I can envision a Ni-H base or a Pd base or merely a Ni base particle with layers of a few atoms thickness that are the reactants at the surface of the nano particle which readily emit charged alphas or other charged particles that can facilitate direct electrical current and its energy. Direct electrical conversion may be possible if the particles could be suspended in vacuum in a magnetic field, in a chamber where the resonance frequency = the cyclotron frequency of the alphas in the magnetic field. This would essentially be a sort of magnetron that was "internally" powered, and the EM energy could then be tapped as the radius of the cycling alphas decreased while they delivered their energy to the resonant field. The distance between particles should be kept >> than the diameter of the circle that the alphas make in the field at their most energetic, to ensure that only a tiny percentage impact other particles and lose energy to heat.
