It seems that Ed Storms is not the first worker to speculate about the important roll that cracks play in cold fusion. I ran into another. Here is what Kenneth Shoulders says in this reference
http://www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/mar2/fox.htm about cracks in palladium: *"It is possible that many of the proven over-unity devices and systems depend on the unknown (or known) generation of High Density Charge Clusters (HDCC).* *For example, one possible source of the excess energy and/or new elements found in deuterium/palladium electrochemical cells could be the production of HDCC formed when the palladium lattice cracks.* *It is known that the palladium cathode becomes stressed (from being loaded with deuterium) and brittle (the well-known hydrogen embrittlement). Kenneth Shoulders suggests that the crack severs trillions of ionic bonds which provides a high voltage that quickly shorts out through the conductive palladium.* *This short-duration, high-voltage spike produces a charge cluster from the cathode side and is accelerated to the anode side, but it also picks up deuterons. The end result can be sufficient velocity to cause nuclear reactions when the combined charge cluster strikes the palladium anode side of the crack."* ** ** ** Cheers: Axil On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 12:40 AM, Ruby <r...@hush.com> wrote: > > I have uploaded an interview with Edmund Storms on his new theory of what > starts the cold fusion reaction. > > > http://coldfusionnow.org/an-explanation-of-low-energy-nuclear-reactions-cold-fusion-by-edmund-storms/ > > I'll be on the road, in my truck, headed to the Bay area (San Francisco > California region for you non-left-coasters) for another interview, then up > to Humboldt County to visit my storage unit (next to Hiro's), camp out in > the Redwoods and edit lots more video. > > As such, I won't be monitoring comments on Cold Fusion Now, and I'm going > to send any individuals interested in discussing the work here to this > thread.
