Axil: I acknowledge chemical conditions as follows: a dielectric gas, a transition metal, heat. What else have I said is required? Ed: Too often various esoteric quantum processes are applied that are in basic conflict with the requirements imposed by the chemical structure and by well know laws and observation. Axil: A topological defect in the metal structure provides the quantum environment that supports LENR, even if that environment is complicated. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_quantum_electrodynamics Ed: If the limitations imposed by chemistry are applied to what is actually observed, the explanation becomes much clearer. Axil: One important chemical manifestation that is almost always central to the LENR process is nano-particle production as a condensate of cooling plasma. This is a generalization of the Storms' lattice crack posit. Ed: You in particular, throw any idea that comes to mind at the wall and hope something sticks. Axil: The ideas that hit the wall are all consistent with the ones that have been thrown previously. Each idea is a projection and an implication of the previous material and all ideas are fashioned to answer one ore more LENR characteristics. For example, a standard quantum nanocavity based nanoplasmonic mechanism supports a positive nuclear feedback process while providing both thermalization of gamma radiation and upshift of infrared heat,. . Ed: As a result, your wall makes no sense to you. If you would focus on what is known about LENR, you would find out exactly what the elephant looks like. Axil: The elephant is truly a huge animal and unfortunately the wall is large with a heavy coat of material. Regrettably, LENR is very complicated, interconnected, and obscure.
