How might we detect low energy neutrons?
Even Dummies know how to study up.
No?
Absorptive reactions with prompt reactions - low energy neutrons are typically detected indirectly through absorption reactions. Typical absorber materials used have high cross sections for absorption of neutrons and include helium-3, lithium-6, boron-10, and uranium-235.

What might low energy neutrons teach us?
Among the known particles, the neutron takes a special position, as it provides experimental access to all four fundamental forces and a wide range of hypothetical interactions. Despite being unstable, free neutrons live long enough to be used as test particles in interferometric, spectroscopic, and scattering experiments probing low-energy scales.
As was already recognized in the 1970s, fundamental concepts of quantum mechanics can be tested in neutron interferometry using silicon perfect-single-crystals.
Besides allowing for tests of uncertainty relations, Bell inequalities and alike, neutrons offer the opportunity to observe the effects of gravity and hypothetical dark forces acting on extended matter wave functions.
Such tests gain importance in the light of recent discoveries of inconsistencies in our understanding of cosmology as well as the incompatibility between quantum mechanics and general relativity.
Experiments with
low-energy neutrons
are thus indispensable tools for probing fundamental physics and represent a complementary approach to colliders.
In this review we discuss the history and experimental methods used at this low-energy frontier of physics and collect bounds and limits on quantum mechanical relations and dark energy interactions.

ALSO Study
The neutron detection temperature, also called the neutron energy, indicates a free neutron's kinetic energy, usually given in electron volts. The term temperature is used, since hot, thermal and cold neutrons are moderated in a medium with a certain temperature. The neutron energy distribution is then adapted to the Maxwellian distribution known for thermal motion. Qualitatively, the higher the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy of the free neutrons. The momentum and wavelength of the neutron are related through the de Broglie relation. The large wavelength of slow neutrons allows for the large cross section.[1]
The origins of the high-energy cosmic neutrino flux remain largely unknown. Recently, one high-energy neutrino was associated with a tidal disruption event (TDE). Here we present AT2019fdr, an exceptionally luminous TDE candidate, coincident with another high-energy neutrino. Our observations, including a bright dust echo and soft late-time x-ray emission, further support a TDE origin of this flare. The probability of finding two such bright events by chance is just 0.034%. We evaluate several models for neutrino production and show that AT2019fdr is capable of producing the observed high-energy neutrino, reinforcing the case for TDEs as neutrino sources.

"Superionic Ice May Be the Most Common Form of Water in the Solar System"
QuoteIt can be hard to imagine what happens to common molecules under the extreme conditions on other planets. For example, Earthlings know water as an essential ingredient for life that exists as a solid, liquid and gas. However, scientists examining how water behaves under different conditions have identified about 20 different types of ice. The most recent addition to this list is “superionic ice,” which is thought to be the main form of ice on water-rich planets like Uranus and Neptune.
A Solid and a Liquid
QuoteSuperionic ice is unique because the oxygen atoms lock into place like a solid, but the hydrogen atoms give up their electrons to become positively charged ions that flow through the oxygen lattice like a fluid. Because the water molecules break apart — unlike other known types of ice — some scientists consider it a new state of matter rather than a new phase of water.

What Is Physics?
The word physics is derived from the Latin word physica, which means "natural thing."
QuoteDisplay MoreAccording to the Oxford English Dictionary, physics is defined as:
Definition of "Physics" by the Oxford English Dictionary
"The branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. The subject matter of physics includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
Another definition by the digital encyclopedia Microsoft Encarta describes physics as:
“A major science dealing with the fundamental constituents of the universe, the forces they exert on one another, and the results produced by these forces. Sometimes in modern physics a more sophisticated approach is taken that incorporates elements of the three areas listed above; it relates to the laws of symmetry and conservation, such as those pertaining to energy, momentum, charge, and parity."
What these definitions indicate is that physics is a branch of science that deals with the properties of matter and energy and the relationship between them. It also tries to explain the material world and the natural phenomena of the universe.
The scope of physics is very wide and vast. It deals with not only the tinniest particles of atoms, but also natural phenomenon like the galaxy, the milky way, solar and lunar eclipses, and more. While it is true that physics is a branch of science, there are many sub-branches within the field of physics. In this article, we will explore each of them in depth.
What Are the Branches of Physics?
While there are more branches sprouting up as science and technology progresses, there are generally 11 branches of physics. These are as follows.
Branches of Physics
- Classical physics
- Modern physics
- Nuclear physics

"Tritium Measurements by Nuclear Reaction Analysis Using 3He Beam in the Energy Range Between 0.7 MeV and 5.1 MeV"
To read the full-text of this research, you can request a copy directly from the authors.
Abstract
A solid thick tritiated W sample was produced in order to probe the efficiency of detecting tritium via ³He ion beam using nuclear reactions analysis (NRA). Extensive literature search showed that there were only a few measurements done more than sixty years ago using the reaction with ³He. Their aim was mainly to measure the absolute cross section of the reaction. In order to use this reaction as an analysing tool for low level radioactive waste we need the differential cross section at certain angles. Using a thick tritiated W sample we measured the NRA signal in the ³He energy range from 0.7 MeV to 5.1 MeV and we have detected reaction products with energies between 6.5 MeV and 9.75 MeV that were not present on a deuterated W sample prepared in the same manner. This NRA signal proved to be due to deuterium and protons coming from the nuclear reaction between tritium and ³He. The detection signal increased with ³He energy up to 3.4 MeV and decreased with energy at the highest beam energies. At higher energies particles from W and target impurities start to disturb the measurement. Their origin might be due to other nuclear reactions, for example between ³He and W or ³He with ¹³C or ¹⁴N.

Will CMNS research provide clues to better hot fusion targets?
Most likely, yes.
These folks are looking at, not just electron screening, they observe electrons participating in the actual nuclear reaction.
"Catalysis of Nuclear Reactions by Electrons"

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/322285657_Catalysis_of_Nuclear_Reactions_by_Electrons
Abstract
Electron screening enhances nuclear reaction cross sections at low energies. We studied the nuclear reaction 1H(19F,αγ)16O in inverse kinematics in different solid hydrogen targets. Measured resonance strengths differed by up to a factor of 10 in different targets. We also studied the 2H(p,γ)3He fusion reaction and observed electrons emitted as reaction products instead of γ rays. In this case electron screening greatly enhances internal conversion probability.

Fusion is a dish best served cold
DECEMBER 10, 2020
https://forbetterscience.com/2020/12/10/fusion-is-a-dish-best-served-cold/
We are back in congratulating the EU Commission in investing €10 million into the research on Cold Fusion, this time Smut Clyde takes over.
He will introduce you to several quacks and an occasional actual criminal, to complement the learned gentlemen of cold fusion “science” like the EU-funded Francesco Celani whom I introduced before. I am sure the expertise of these characters will be hotly appreciated by the academic partners of the two new FET research projects by the EU Commission (Hermes and CleanHME). Those are about reviving the 1989 discovery of Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons, which was definitely never research fraud but Cold Fusion, or rather low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) or hydrogen–metal energy (HME), as it is called nowadays to avoid ridicule. I personally prefer the acronym “FuF” (pronounced fooff, from Italian “fusione fredda”), which was established by the mitica Sylvie Coyaud. FuF is truly the right way to describe these people.
At the 29 minute mark through to the 31 minute mark Carl Page speaks about a paper he received from a researcher in the Crimea and then talks about how LENR/Solid-State Fusion is taking place deep in the Earth.

ARTICLE
"These Barren Plains Hold a Mystery No One Can Crack"
Out of Eden Walk, National Geographic Magazine
Jun 16, 2016 — Gennadiy Tarasenko says underground lightning strikes created the rock nodules strewn about the steppes. Photograph by Paul Salopek.
A bit of history from the article.
QuoteDisplay MoreMost scientists believe the balls develop over millennia as minerals in liquid solution cement themselves together around a nucleus of debris—a pebble, a fossil—much in the manner of an oyster coating a particle of grit to form a pearl. (This part of Kazakhstan once was an ancient seabed.)
But Gennadiy Tarasenko disagrees.
Tarasenko, a gangly geologist from the regional capital of Aktau, thinks Mangystau’s trademark concretions are the result of electricity in the Earth’s crust. According to his theory, underground lightning strikes many miles long—sparked by volcanism and plate shifts—create “plasma fireballs” that then accrete minerals.
“These balls roll between layers of rock,” Tarasenko says. “They are like millstones grinding the rocks to flour.”
Tarasenko’s hypothesis is complicated and infinitely less boring than the conventional explanation. He also believes the Earth is hollow. In his makeshift lab in Aktau, a gardeners’ shed on the grounds of a local university, he uses salvaged parts from a disassembled Soviet nuclear power plant to test his ideas. Connecting raw copper wires to an aging dynamo—“The whole Earth is a dynamo!”—he fired up his equipment one recent afternoon and made a tiny blue lightning bolt sizzle between steel plates. He warned the university’s maintenance man before throwing the switch in case the demonstration caused a blackout.
Out on the steppes of Mangystau the concretions loom like alien monoliths.
Some are halved like oranges. Others glom together into cartoon heads, into mammoth sexual organs, into fantasy menageries. They are objects of waiting.
I stride among them on my walk to Uzbekistan. I camp in their pale blue spheroid shade. Sometimes, I pause to listen for subterranean rumbling—Tarasenko’s planetary ball bearings on the move—but all I hear is the wind.
Also of relevance to Carl Page's reference paper.

QuoteDisplay MoreGennadiy Tarasenko and a colleague from Caspian State
University of Technologies and Engineering had a poster on
“The Mechanism of Formation of LENR in Earth’s Crust.” It
was a development of Tarasenko’s presentations at earlier
ICCFs. They envision this process: “Rotation of sub-surface
geospheres generates electricity and is responsible for the
dynamo effect of planet Earth.” The large-scale currents are
viewed as the source of the earth’s field with associated dis-
charges that can cause earthquakes and various geological
formations. They wrote, “This LENR process is possible
because of the presence of plasmas of various forms, which
possess both gravitational and magnetic fields and are able
to process the surrounding material into geological bodies of
different types.” The team conducted laboratory experi-
ments to simulate geophysical conditions. These were
described: “Inside a simple reactor chamber, a pressured
environment was created in the presence of a magnetic field
and electric discharges. After the initial excitation of electri-
cal discharges, a voltage appeared on the stator, which sug-
gests the formation of a condenser-like structure inside the
reactor.” That structure is thought to be similar to what
occurs in the earth.

"Future Strategic Issues/Future Warfare [Circa 2025] Dennis Bushnell – NASA – LENR"
Carl says because of the big big BIG money making potential (quote "people act funny") there is a lack of transparency (research and data) about what makes it work. Many examples come to my mind.
Indian Head Division had this to say about the problem of lack of transparency. In their presentation. Indian Head openly admits that even the presentation they are giving has limitations (restrictions) placed upon them.
Obviously a restriction whose goal is to limit transparency will cloud facts and misdirect perceptions, i.e. public opinion.
Who restricts team Google from writing an in depth Nature article about their research into and pursuit of solid state CMNS energy technology patents?
The boss does is my best guess.
This is what Indian Head is allowed to say about the lack of transparency at ARPA-E. A few well known researchers have subsequently made similar commentary.

Electric Propulsion... For decades the daydream of high power electric propulsion has envisioned humans rapid space expansion.
Simply put...
The ability for us to get out there in one fourth the time, or less.
Continuous thrust with a fraction of the fuel weight.
Imagine approximately...
100 Mw LENR Electric could power 1,000 of these100 kW X3 Nested Channel Hall Thrusters delivering 5,400 Newtons of thrust for a long long time.
I'd hope to find someone at the playground who.could estimate some flight times for a Starship so equipped, using total loaded estimated weight by Space X.
QuoteThe highest power Hall-effect thruster in development is the University of Michigan's 100 kW X3 Nested Channel Hall Thruster. The thruster is approximately 80 cm in diameter and weighs 230 kg, and has demonstrated a thrust of 5.4 N. - Wikipedia
"Implementation and Initial Validation of a 100-kW Class Nested-channel Hall Thruster"
The X3 is a 100-kW class nested-channel Hall thruster developed by the Plasmady- namics and Electric Propulsion Laboratory at the University of Michigan in collaboration with the Air Force Research Laboratory and NASA. The cathode, magnetic circuit, boron nitride channel rings, and anodes all required specific design considerations during thruster development. Thermal modeling was used to properly account for thermal growth in material selection and component design. A number of facility upgrades were required at the University of Michigan to facilitate operation of the X3. These upgrades included a modified propellant feed system, a redesigned power and telemetry breakout box, and numerous updates to thruster handling equipment. The X3 was tested on xenon propellant at two current densities, 37% and 73% of the nominal design value. It was operated to a maximum steady-state discharge power of 60.8 kW. The tests presented here served as an initial validation of thruster operation. Thruster behavior was monitored with telemetry, photography and high-speed current probes. The photography showed a uniform plume throughout testing. At constant current density, reductions in necessary mass flow rate of 18% and 26% were observed in the three-channel operating configuration as compared to the superposition of each channel running individually. The high-speed current probes showed that the thruster was stable at all operating points and that the channels influence each other when more than one is operating simultaneously. Additionally, the ratio of peak-to-peak AC-coupled discharge current oscillations to mean discharge current did not exceed 51% for any operating points reported here, and did not exceed 17% at the higher current density. © 2014 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc.

Abstract
Based on our experimental studies of the electron screening effect in the 2H(d,p)3H reaction for five deuteron-implanted solid targets (C,Al,Zr,Pd,Ta), theoretical calculations have been performed within an improved dielectric function theory. The theory describes correctly the observed target material dependence of the screening energies, underestimating, however, the absolute values by about a factor of 2. Applying an effective screening energy approach, the theoretical cross-sections, thick-target yields as well as nuclear reaction rates have been calculated down to the energies corresponding to the conditions of so-called cold-fusion experiments. This allows for a comparison of the experimental results at higher energies with those achieved in the heavy-water electrolysis expericontainment

ISOSPIN SYMMETRY BREAKING AND BRANCHING RATIO IN THE DEUTERON REACTIONS AT VERY LOW ENERGIES
A.I. KILIÇ, K. CZERSKI, P. HEIDE, A. HUKE, G. RUPRECHT and N. TARGOSZ-ŚLȨCZKA
Abstract
The target-material dependence of the neutron-proton branching ratio and breaking of the isospin symmetry in the the 2H(d, n)3He and 2H(d, p)3H reactions at very low deuteron energies have been investigated. Angular distributions and total cross sections of the proton and neutron mirror channels have been measured for nuclear reactions taking place in different metallic environments. For Sr, Li, Na targets, we have found a first evidence for an alteration of the neutron-proton branching ratio and angular anisotropy of the neutron channel. We discuss various theoretical approaches explaining isospin mixing effects both in gas and metallic target experiments including a deuteron polarization in the crystal lattice. Direct reaction contribution has been calculated within the zero range distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA).

Science topic
Low Energy Nuclear Reactions - Science
Publications (3,568)
Cold fusion is a proposed[1] type of nuclear reaction which would occur at relatively low temperatures compared to hot fusion. As a new type of nuclear reaction, it was proposed to explain reports by experimenters of anomalously high energy generation under certain specific laboratory conditions. It has been rejected by the mainstream scientific community because the original experimental results could not be replicated consistently and reliably, and because there is no generally accepted theoretical explanation that accounts for the lack of nuclear byproducts.

I suppose CleanHME EU has it's own thread... this could be moved there or to the ICCF-24 thread...
I intend to research these folks soon,.. papers, patents, companies and skill sets of those involved. With a little help I am certain they could successfully enter the market soon.
CleanHME - US?
Is anyone working on this?
Such a consortium could be created in the US to seek DoE funding. Perhaps Brillouin Energy Corporation, and others deserve ARPA-E funding. Pressure could be put to challenge their (BEC) recent ARPA-E rejection. Seems to me that Larry Page and Lawrence Forsley could act as spokespersons for the group and open some doors into the DoE considering their long-standing CMNS research partnerships with DoE and other US National Laboratories.
