regarding “A “linear BEC” sounds rather like the “hydroton” model of Edmund Storms”
https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3981264/posts?page=15#15 ------------------------------ A Bose Einstein Condensate is when a group of atoms start acting like one atom, in concert. Lots of hints that what’s going on in LENR is BECs. But the drawback is that BECs form at such low temperatures. So the trick is to find how BECs might form at higher temperatures, find evidence for it. That evidence is slowly arriving. A Linear BEC would be a linear formation of perhaps only a few atoms, acting in concert. Here is where I think there might be an intersection with Ed’s model. When that vibrating linear BEC runs into an edge dislocation of the matrix... it BENDS the BEC. It stresses it such that 2 of the captured atoms fuse together because the Coulomb Barrier is so low inside the BEC. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/352900842_Novel_Cold_Fusion_Reactor_with_Deuterium_Supply_from_Backside_and_Metal_Surface_Potential_Control?channel=doi&linkId=60dea792299bf1ea9ed6206f&showFulltext=true Look at Figure 1.
