-----Original Message----- From: Horace Heffner > Cosmic rays are isotropic. At the surface their effect is not isotropic due to a slight east-west bias due perturbation of cosmic rays by the earth's magnetic field, however diurnal *flux* variation is small ...

Yes. Thanks. I'm guilty of lumping the two (neutrinos and cosmic rays) together - both of them being possible triggers for LENR, and yet they are very different... the correction is important as it means a diurnal variation is probably neutrino-based, no? In theory, the solar wind should not be a factor... unless ... Aha! Time to get in the obligatory f/H or fractional hydrogen scenario. There could be a population of f/H from the solar corona, as Mills has claimed - and arriving with solar wind - and having the property of small size and inertness that could make them catalytic...
