My thoughts are that if the affected protons march in unison and in one direction vector then a changing magnetic field might be able to vary that direction. I think of these coupled protons as being like bulldozers plowing through the electron clouds of the nickel atoms in the direction of their peers. The nickel target nuclei are tiny but can be impacted by these energetic coupled protons if their directions can be varied. Just the right external field and a direct hit is achieved on one or more nuclei.
This type of activity would suggest a NAE that is of a virtual nature but I am not sure if it would tend to follow cracks, etc. within the crystal. The rarity of the LENR events would be explained by the lack of direct aim that exists unless the right external field vector as reflected within the crystal is achieved. On rare occasions the redirected protons might impact many target nuclei simultaneously if they happen to line up with important crystal directions. Could something such as this explain the mini explosions that are sometimes observed? Also, this type of activity would play well into the observed loading phenomenon. The more protons that are working together, the more likely we are to have a collision. Of course my favorite function is the suppression of gamma emission by the spreading of the binding energy over the large cloud of protons coupled together. Another thought to consider is the tendency for LENR activity to be enhanced by the movement of protons into and out of the nickel matrix. Perhaps this common motion concentrated in one dimension encourages the coupling mechanism. Eric, I tend to think that the protons are not actually in the exact same path but are moving in the exact same direction and coupled to behave as one particle. Hopefully there is enough energy shared between the protons to allow some to breech the coulomb barrier. I would expect a proton cloud such as the one we are thinking of would be confined to travel parallel to a major external crystal surface. This tendency might be reflected in the observation that the major activity seems to be at or near surface features. Additionally, any externally applied field tends to concentrate along the surfaces more than within the crystal.

Is the movement of protons or deuterons thermal (random) or more organized? (I am imagining a cavity, here, and not the confines of the lattice.) If it's more like packed traffic going down the highway way too quickly, the likelihood of an event increases, for example, when there is a slow, lumbering vehicle directly ahead. Or, to use a different analogy, when a school of fish or flock of birds suddenly changes its direction.

When these particles are working as a group are their motions synchronized in space? What I refer to in this question is the orientation of the movements that are organized by the outside source. For instance, are all the entangled particles moving along the same direction vector? If one electron of the group is moving along the X axis does that imply that all of them are? This is a fairly important issue with interesting implications if true. I am assuming that there is spatial distance along the Z axis and Y axis forming the equivalent shape of a cloud in space where the net movement is along the X axis. Dave
