Wonder Warthog is on vacation so I’ll be pinging the list for a couple weeks.

The issue isn’t whether we allow skepticism, it is whether we allow hyperskeptics and skeptopaths to ruin the scientific dialog. Such FReepers as Moonman62, TexasGator, CodeToad, Fireman15 and others who persist in polluting these threads have been asked to leave, and we are asking that they open their own threads if they have comments.
In June 2021, Wonder Warthog took over the Cold Fusion Ping List.

This topic has a following, people who wish to learn and discuss the materials presented.
Please refrain from posting anything that doesn’t legitimately address the issue.
Something is going on in this segment of science. There are a considerable number of research groups studying the matter.

[Vo]:Ferrous alloys and spin energy transfer - mostly overlooked in LENR

There has been recent renewed interest in spin coupling in LENR as the m.o. of
energy transfer at the atomic level.
As it turns out – nickel is not optimum for the spin transfer process - while
iron is the best, but iron is not good for absorption of hydrogen.
In fact Tom Claytor could be several years ahead of the rest of the LENR world
in utilizing spin (and ferrous alloys) but he has been largely ignored since it
is assumed the ferromagnetic elements – iron nickel and cobalt would all
transfer spin energy in the same way - and nickel is a good proton absorber.
If John Wallace is on the right track, he may have provided a QM explanation
of why steel or an iron alloy can transfer spin energy more robustly than
nickel — but they are not optimum without alloying elements which allow high
loading. Iron is notorious for undergoing embrittlement, which is a type of
hydrogen absorption but possibly one which is destructive in the long run and
far from optimum without more…
… which brings to mind Claytor’s statement that the best alloy he has found for
LENR was a Mu metal alloy.
The use of Mu Metal as the active matrix for LENR could turn out to be the most
valuable detail relative to spin and LENR if Claytor is correct … using “
Co-Netic” as the matrix alloy. Mu-metal is a nickel-iron alloy, and the
proprietary alloy in question, Co-Netic - has high added molybdenum.

The high permeability makes mu-metal useful not only for shielding against
static and low-frequency magnetic fields but also in converting most of the
energy of an anomalous self-generated field into heat. This is a “soft”
magnetic material that saturates at low magnetic fields and that is the key to
the coupling magnons into heat. The high number of inherent Rydberg levels in
the ionization potential of this alloy could be the key. BTW – it should be
noted that Molybdenum is the closest Rydberg ionization fit to Mills theory of
all metals. That could be another key to understanding. No other metal is as
close to the precise value.

Wallace’s book can be ordered from his web site but it is not about LENR and is
highly technical.
