“…Under some circumstances, as discussed by Takahashi, Scott and Talbot Chubb and others, there can occur in the lattice the formation of excited helium 4 ( 4 He*). Finally, in the fourth irreversible step there is the de-excitation through the PHUSON coherent particle [161]. These steps, and the energy levels explain the observations of LANR -including the excess heat, and the lack of significant emissions.…”

“…E is the energy per reaction (circa 24 MeV per fusion reaction from the estimations of Miles, McKubre, and Apicella/Violante [6,7,11,114], or perhaps 2 MeV less based on the theoretical considerations [161]). F vol is the functional number of the volume of each site (or layer).…”

“…Unlike fermions, phonons are bosonic quantized lattice vibrations meaning that an arbitrary number of phonons can be excited in each phonon mode. In successful LANR, there are enough phonons (lattice vibrations) to act coherently, to enable coherent energy transfer (from where the excess heat arises for the just-formed high energy helium excited state to shed ∼20+ MeV to the lattice [6,[144][145][146][147]149,[156][157][158][159][160][161][162] as the He 4 * returns to the He 4 ground state. Hence the "excess heat".…”

“…The coherent means of excitation of the lattice, the Phuson [161], enables LANR by coherent transfer of energy from 4 He* to the lattice. Understanding LANR from this point of view requires closely studying the PHUSON, which is the coherent "particle" of the PHUSON theory.…”

Science moves on two legs: experiments and theory. Sometimes theory comes first, but most of the times it is the reverse. In this realm of Condensed Matter Nuclear Science, the well-known theories of nuclear reactions do not explain the experimental observations. One option is to say that experiments are faulty. This is the easiest way to comment. We know that experiments performed by tens of different experimentalists with many different techniques have shown anomalies. They have proven the existence of excess heat, production of helium-4, helium-3, tritium, neutrons, transmutations, and strange radiation. This first option cannot be accepted. The second option remains. We have entered a new field of science, and a lot needs to be done before a valid theory can be developed. We need many more experimental facts, so that a full picture of Low Energy Nuclear Science can be understood, and also developed for the benefit of mankind.Volume 25 is another contribution to our understanding of Condensed Matter Nuclear Science.

Trapping of hydrogen ions released during sodium metal dissolution in a dilute aqueous Epsom solution in cavitation induced nanocrystals could bring about an easy path to controlled nuclear fusion. This type of fusion envisioning has the advantage of keeping the two protons and the electrons in the same vicinity, bonded in the same unit throughout the fusion process unlike the case in Sun. The electrostatic repulsive force between protons which has been a stumbling block so far in achieving a controlled fusion is now turned in its favor by exploiting the fascinating properties of water.

Excess heat release during deuterium sorption-desorption by finely powdered palladium deuteride

Thermal effects have been studied in the course of sorption-desorption of hydrogen isotopes by a finely powdered palladium deuteride using a differential scanning calorimeter DSC-111 SETARAM. During α-β transition an excess heat release is observed in palladium deuteride of about one watt per gram of deuteride. In similar experiments with palladium hydride no anomalous effects have been observed. On the basis of earlier computer modelling, relevant publications and our experimental results, the excess heat release during deuterium sorption-desorption by palladium deuteride is attributed to the fusion reactions of deuterium atoms yielding helium.
