---------- Role of nano-particles (deuterium and palladium) hypothesized in cold fusion. Everybody has thought of palladium nano-particles in cold fusion. But when deuterium is adsorbed in palladium, do you get some deuterium in the solid state and therefore --- deuterium nano-particles should be investigated. I and Dr S B Khadkikar (retd. head of theoretical physics group, physics research laboratory, ahmedabad --- now probably prof in space science dept., pune university) had hypothesized the role of palladium nano-particles in cold fusion. but what if a sharp pointy palladium nano-particles sticks into a sharp/pointy or is it round sphere deuterium nano-particle in cold fusion. discovery thought dated 18/Sept/2007. actually, if you think of a deuterium --- palladium alloy WHICH IS THEN MADE INTO NANO-PARTICLES of the alloy, what would happen. Conceptually, this is different from making palladium nano-particles and then absorbing deuterium. Erach
