I would have said that Storms process would have seen an increase in atomic 4 mass in the form of 4He. NRL indicated that there was a production of He in their Pd experiments consistent with Storms proposed process. Storms has long said on this blog that his theory was reflects the data. I would say the Mizuno tests, if the conclusion on the decrease of atomic mass 4 is correct, contradicts Storms theory.

Something very similar could be the case in Mizuno's latest setup (skipping the 1H to 2H step).

The input gas was in fact molecular deuterium. An innovation that they made a big deal of at the meeting was a device placed inside the reactor that allowed them to monitor the composition of the circulating gas in real time, in terms of atomic number. Thus at the beginning of the run they were registering atomic number 4 (molecular deuterium) and during the run there was a progressive decline in 4. A transient rise in 3 occurred (they didn't know if it was tritium or possibly Helium 3) then that level declined again. The item that progressively rose during the run was atomic number 2(they didn't know if that was atomic deuterium or molecular hydrogen). Any speculation from the group as to why that might happen? As an matter of coincidence or god forbid synchronicity the output of Fisher's polyneutron theory was molecular hydrogen (IIRC) The opening slide was an image of Japanese gradeschoolers wearing masks for protection from Fukushimas monstrous effluent. Underscore an enhanced willingness on the part of Japanese government and industry to get behind Mizuno's innovation Steve High
