Nice work!
Let me add one fleeting comment about degenerate matter (dm) which might
or might not be relevant in the big picture (and before I forget it):
(dm) being matter which has sufficiently high density of fermion content
that the dominant contribution to its pressure arises from the Pauli
exclusion principle.
But to be entirely precise, since electrons can pair - we must add
"non-BEC matter". That is normally assumed, since these experiments are
all taking place above the range of 300 K.
However, there is one slim situation which this rule cannot cover: if
degeneracy pressure arises because of Pauli, then that will not fully
apply to a situation in which there is even a transitory BEC state.
From the earliest days of LENR analysis, observers have suggested that
Pd-hydrides, which are superconductive at low temperatures, could become
temporarily superconductive under other circumstances. Ironically,
degeneracy pressure itself could provide one circumstance - since
pressure can have the same effect as cold - in eliminating freedom of
movements.
And visually - every SEM image of an active LENR site, including the
famous one on Rothwell's Mizuno translation, looks exactly like an
*implosion* and definitely less like an *explosion*.
just a passing thought, and I am resisting the temptation to add
something punny to "degenerate" ...
