QED.
Jones, this statement is not correct. LENR emits photons. These photons are not as energetic as those produced by many normal nuclear reactions, hence most do not escape the apparatus. Nevertheless, the mass-energy is released as photons as is normal and is required of a nuclear reaction. The only unknown is the mechanism causing this process. Obviously, a process is required that does not operate during hot fusion. Nevertheless, nuclear products are formed that can only result from a nuclear reaction having the known and well understood consequences. Ed Storms >
