Jones-- Helium or something like He with Atomic Wt 4 is seen as a relic in the Pd,D reaction. The Dirac sea may be involved as we have discussed.
It remains that gammas from “normal” nuclear transitions is missing. Cravens thinks the24 Mev transition happens . The Navy SPAWARS experience indicates He is formed and they see mostly 24Mev transitions. I tend to believe the Navy statements. The results of the Rossi Third Party test hopefully will resolve the issue with a sound theoretical explanation of the Ni,H reaction. I wonder if there is any testing coming out this year to further explain the Pd-D system?

Hi Bob, In principle this could probably happen, or at least let’s assume that it could happen (realizing however, that in all of physics, it is not known to happen and there is no model to proceed on, for guidance). OK. Even if we accept it can happen, in principle, and I’m willing to concede that it can, my problem is that at best it would be an alternative to a known mechanism to release nuclear energy. As an alternative to a known mechanism, it is most unlikely to happen all the time to the complete exclusion of the known mechanism. There is no gamma radiation in the Cravens experiment. Even if 99.9999999% were excluded by the new and previously unknown mechanism, we should see some relic of the 24 MeV signature. Since none is seen, it is safe to conclude that the new mechanism is imaginary and not a physical reality. Thus nuclear fusion probably is not the source of excess energy in the Cravens experiment. At least that is the logical pathway which forms the basis of my belief that we need to look elsewhere than fusion for the source of the gain. Jones
