This mean we can use H2 for muon production but in order to get muon-catalyzed fusion the target must contain Deuterium.
In other words it could be possible to use D2 (for CAT) just during preparation of the fuel but for MOUSE we can use H2.
This could well mean that Rossi is doing so for long time.
Another very important thing is:
This is why usage of deuterium is important to reach very high power output easily.
One Muon from MOUSE can start basically chain reaction in CAT! One event leads to many events - this phenomenon can be also used for making a sensitive Muon detector.
If I am not wrong this is exactly what Russ is observing.
Moreover if Mouse can be stimulated by Cat (maybe by Heat) we have a self-sustaining reaction!
I really think that in the proper conditions, hydrogen will work every bit as effectively as deuterium.
