If they find a way to focus the charged particles into a beam then run it through some conductive coils, that could absorb 90% of the charged particle output into electric current flow.
Some will claim that 'high electron charge density' is an EVO
Some will claim that 'high electron charge density' is an EVO
Yep, I accept that denser matter constructs between nuclear and chemical processes are likely possible and high electron densities would probably play an interesting part. But the energy from vacuum and things that ignore conservation of energy for "stereotypical EVOs" make it sketchy to me. Though I think openess to it's possible reality, if openly proven, is an attractive approach. A miracle truly would always garner appreciation fully to my eyes 😁.
I would say that high electron density isn't what constitutes an EVO but can generate conditions favorable for EVOs to self organize. One of multiple ways which EVOs may be able to induce nuclear reactions is due to their high electric charge due to their density of electrons around themselves. If a high density of electrons produces transmutations that doesn't absolutely mean an EVO was involved. However, I expect that when you suddenly produce spikes of electrons due to surface plasmons that the conditions are favorable for EVOs, even on the nano-scale, to form.
For me the jury is still out on EVOs, at least some of the more outlandish features. More convinced by similar ideas to what R. Mills and such propose.
United States Patent 10,566,094 February 18, 2020 is laser directed at metal hydride with smaller elements doing the real fusion. Hora's recent statement on their approach is two lasers with the net effect of driving hydrogen at boron ( a small element). In my pending patent I indicated that the fusion of small element should be possible by confinement of small elements which have been excited into weak interacting quantum states. The weak interacting quantum states of the target and projectile significantly lower the coulomb barrier.

United States Patent 10,590,966 March 17, 2020
Method for generating mechanical and electrochemical cavitation, method for changing geometric shape and electrochemical properties of substance surface, method for peeling off rare metal, mechanical and electrochemical cavitation generator, and method for generating nuclear fusion reaction of deuterium
Abstract
Provided are a method for generating mechanical and electrochemical cavitation, a method for changing the geometric shape and the electrochemical properties of a surface of a substance, a method for peeling off a rare metal using the generated mechanical and electrochemical cavitation, a mechanical and electrochemical cavitation generator, and a method for generating a nuclear fusion reaction of deuterium. In the method for generating mechanical and electrochemical cavitation, a water jet is jetted from a jetting nozzle immersed in water, and flow cavitation generated by the jetting of the water jet is irradiated with an ultrasonic wave to generate cavitation MFC having both a functional effect and an electrochemical effect.
This is the kind of systems that is more of my interest alley right now as I am (Covid-19 alowing) soon to start some cavitation replications.

From my knowledge most LENR is not table top fusion, even though it should be a real energy phenomina. This is some form of warm fusion if it checks out. Without many 100s of keV to multiple MeV outputs per reaction it just isn't primarily nuclear, period. When about ~100 keV down to 0.5 keV output per reaction shielding isn't a problem. Absorbed with thin sheets of heavy material.
Instantaneous Production of Coherent Deuterons (Received September 14, 1992)
"It is possible to produce coherent deuterons by the incidence of coherent photons on solid
deuterium. The coherent deuterons, once produced, will fuse to release nuclear energy."
METHOD FOR ENHANCED NUCLEAR REACTIONS
US 20200090822 Mar. 19, 2020
Coherent nuclear fusion
"Nuclear fusion reaction is greatly enhanced by the coherent properties of bosons in its product. A simple model calculation yields an enhancement factor m2 for each coherent boson in its product. Explicit calculation is carried out for d+d→α+γ. Its coherent reaction rate is shown to increase as m4, where m is the number of coherent nuclear reactions among deuterons. The number m must be greater than a certain critical value before coherent nuclear fusions occur. Several decoherent effects need to be minimized so that the nuclear reaction can become coherent. Current technical levels for extreme ultraviolet lasers, ultrashort laser pulse, the strongest transient magnetic field and nanotechnology are found sufficient to construct the first nuclear coherent fusion experiment."

100'000keV deuterons... can of course not be patented as this has been done for the last 40 years already... But some details of it might hold...
Does this mean IH are actually getting somewhere with this test reactor design, have they used it to test for excess heat or run any new experiments?
I think it's just astroturfing. There are countless existing reactor designs, and quite honestly I see no point in patenting this particular one. especially if you have no intention or hope of selling them in quantity. It's not a exactly going to be as ubiquitous as a Wok is it? One consolation is that it's unlikely that anyone would want to challenge it on 'prior art' grounds, in fact it might be refused on the grounds of 'obviousness'. But that's just my opinion as a designer of quite a few reactors.
