Gee, my serendipitous 'webbing' this eve has been quite interesting and fruitful. here's one more.
I promise I'll go to bed after this one! Seeing the "Quantum" in Quantum Zero-Point Fluctuations http://physics.aps.org/articles/v5/8 PDF for actual article being described: http://physics.aps.org/featured-article-pdf/10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.033602 This statement made me think about the problem of how the 'missing' gammas are absorbed into the lattice as phonons: "This approach yields relatively high-frequency mechanical resonances (with gigahertz-scale frequencies), which makes cooling easier and yields well-separated sidebands. The tight localization of modes also yields *very strong optomechanical couplings*. And especially this.. "In addition, this setup allows a single mechanical resonance to be coupled to many distinct optical resonances." Would a gamma be considered 'optical'????? I do not know whether the conditions which were present in the experiment above are present in LENR. so it may not be relevant. G'nite, -Mark
