Transient superconductivity in palladium hydrides

For many years, a recurring theme  on vortex involves the idea that a local 
form of high temperature superconductivity could be the hidden  underlying 
modality which was needed to form a BEC condensate in palladium deuteride, and 
that this condensate was necessary as a prerequisite for a nuclear reaction  to 
occur at elevated temperature,, even if the state lasted  only picoseconds, as 
opposed to stability at  cryogenic conditions.
The argument could be worth renewed interest – given that transient HTSC has 
been found and reported in an authoritative study not involving LENR. That 
report turned up on LENR forum from poster Ahlfors  - as the subject of a PhD  
thesis by M. Syed from an Australian University.

“Transient High-Temperature Superconductivity in Palladium Hydride”

The nano-magnetism concept of Ahern, for instance, was  predicated on 
high-temperature local superconductivity for reducing randomness, arguably in 
the form of a ‘transient condensate.’ As to why a pulse of magnetism would be 
important – very simply this gets back to structural uniformity and  Boson 
statistics. 

Two bound deuterons in a cavity exist at identical ‘compreture’ due to the 
cavity containment but that is not enough. Magnetism can thereafter align spin, 
so immediately you have a near-condensate in the sense of extreme DFR 
("Divergence From Randomness") in the physical properties of those atoms in the 
matrix.  From this highly structured but non-cryogenic state – a “virtual BEC” 
need  last only picoseconds if there us sequential recurrence.

This is from one of the earlier threads on vortex - with a SPAWARS citation 
linking to further details on LENR-CANR.org.

Hi Jones,
In an early post on vortex - decades ago, I proposed that the reversion of a
superconducting state to normal, would result in a very fast magnetic field
collapse, which due to V = - L di/dt could produce a local high voltage pulse
that might accelerate particles enough to produce some fusion reactions.
(This is because when a section of the lattice becomes locally superconducting
it forms a local short circuit, and all local current flows through it, rather
than through the surrounding lattice. When it reverts to normal, the resistance
suddenly increases and the current tries to stop, but is forced to continue by
the collapsing magnetic field. High current x R => high voltage; another way of
looking at it.)

If temporary superconducting states cycle frequently enough, and in sufficient
number, then this could be the mechanism behind CF.
