Much of the theoretical work that's been done to explain why low-temperature nuclear fusion between hydrogen atoms and between deuterium atoms involves looking at ways hydrogen atoms behave when they're held in close proximity. These experimental results appear to show some attractive behavior between hydrogen atoms when they are adsorbed into a two-dimensional crystal of carbon atoms, a material known as "graphene."
Thus, this could be experimental confirmation of some of the theory that has been developed to explain cold fusion (also sometimes called "LENR").
“...to explain cold fusion (also sometimes called “LENR”).”
Absolutely the first thing I’ve understood in these threads. Thanks.
Is that attractive force what drives H1gas to become H2gas? And by adsorbing into a lattice, does the hydrogen gas in this experiment USE that force to hook up with the lattice atoms? That would point to a separate attractive force.
