In pursuit of a better understanding of LENR, I wanted to find out what was behind some of the latest ideas about the nucleus as recently developed by orthodox physics. This includes strong and weak force equivalence called in the physics game “S-duality”.
At first glance, it seems to me that the guy who thought this “S-duality” idea up does not believe in quarks.

Electric-Magnetic Duality, Monopole Condensation, And Confinement In N = 2 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
N. Seiberg

N. Seiberg bases his theories on monopoles and Dyons
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyon
“In physics, a dyon is a hypothetical particle in 4-dimensional theories with both electric and magnetic charges. A dyon with a zero electric charge is usually referred to as a magnetic monopole. Many grand unified theories predict the existence of both magnetic monopoles and dyons.
Dyons were first proposed[1] by Julian Schwinger in 1969 as a phenomenological alternative to quarks. He extended the Dirac quantization condition to the dyon and used the model to predict the existence of a particle with the properties of the J/ψ meson prior to its discovery in 1974.”
Schwinger was a true believer in cold fusion and a Nobel Prize winner who was ostracized for that belief by the scientific community.
Schwinger was hands down smarter than Richard Feynman.
After 10 years, these “out of the box” ideas as gaining some traction among the who’s who in physics.
The Higgs theory fits into all this nicely.
IMHO, I think that the roots of LENR and zero point energy lies deep inside this rat’s nest of incomprehensible nuclear concepts and string theory.
One idea that string theory has advanced is equivalence between theories even if the theories all look different mathematically.
Five consistent versions of string theory were developed before it was realized in the mid-1990s that these theories could be obtained as different limits of a conjectured eleven-dimensional theory called M-theory.
In quantum field theory, Seiberg duality, conjectured by Nathan Seiberg, is an S-duality relating two different supersymmetric QCDs. Seiberg was able to put the two theories together into a combined duel theory. The two theories are not identical, but they agree at low energies. More precisely after some math adjustments involving the gauge coupling constant, both theories behave in the same way.
Seiberg has been able to avoid mind lock about his theory from the quark lovers because of the mathematical equivalence mechanism.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seiberg_duality
This also involves an interchange of the electrically charged particles (quarks) and magnetic monopoles.
The roots of these ideas comes from the strong-weak duality derived from the generalization of the electro-magnetic symmetry of Maxwell's equations.

Experimental observation and analysis of action of light magnetic monopoles on multilayer surfaces
I am interested in the similarities between the electromagnetic anomalies that have been reported by the Proton-21 experiment with those reported by LeClair in his cavatation experiment.
This “particle” could well be a magnetic vortex current that is mobile well beyond its location of creation. Like a nano-sized ball lightning, this vortex current is attracted to a solid surface where it induces nuclear reactions as a result of its unique electromagnetic nature.
LeClair may have erroneously connected the water crystal that he sees with the action of this magnetic vortex current.
If this current as large enough, this vortex currents may well be capable of passing though solid obstructions such as reactor walls as has been reported by LeClair and with ball lightning.
The referenced paper shows that these vortexes can travel a considerable distance from there points of creation and are very light in mass and may well be massless.
LeClair has presented clear experimental evidence showing the action and mobility of these vortexes and so have STANISLAV V. ADAMENKO and VLADIMIR I. VYSOTSKII in the above reference.
There is a LENR strength component that changes the character and the types of nuclear processes and transmutation produces that are manifest in various LENR reactor reactions.
In the Rossi reactor, the strength level of the reaction is the weakest in this example. The Rossi reaction only affects transmutation of Ni62 and Ni64 in the nickel powder
There is other transmutations going on but we will keep the discussion about nickel in the Ni/H reactors.
In the DGT reactor, the strength of the LENR reaction is on an intermediate level. The DGT reactor can affect the nuclei of Ni58 and Ni60 as well as Ni62 and Ni64. And the heaviest transmuted element observed is lead.
On the other side of the coin, in the LeClair reactor, the LENR reactor is the strongest reaction observed. This LENR reaction level can affect nuclei with both even and odd number of nucleons. This type of reaction can produce heavy elements well into the transuranic range.
Interestingly, LeClair reports that both the chlorine stable isotopes Cl35 and Cl37 are transmuted into unstable chlorine nuclei Cl39 from LeClair as follows:
“The radiation emitted by the reactor left nuclear tracks, burned the hole pattern of the core into the clear PVC core enclosure, activated high neutron absorption cross-section 39Cl (56 minute half-life) in the chlorine of the PVC core enclosure….”
The LeClair reactor breaks the even nucleon rules where only even nucleons are affected by the reaction.
I don’t buy the LeClair theory of how cavatation produces transmutation from zero point energy.
Transmutation occurs because of Higgs field monopole disruption as anopole magnetism is sufficiently strong to cause the Higgs dual superconductivity in the nucleus to be disrupted with the formation of anapole magnetic nuclear filaments. Quarks tend to realine along these lines of anapole magnetic force. In this way newly configured elements are generated where quarks are reordered and reconfigured.
Cavatation fits into the general whispering wave resonator polariton LENR theory in this way explained as follows:

The Study of Cavitation Bubble- Surface Plasmon Resonance Interaction For LENR and Biochemical processes
All these reactors produce anapole magnetic fields of varying strength that affect the stability of nuclei in close proximity to the anapole current vortex(aka monopole).
There is much randomness in this transmutation process where anopole fields can vary widely in strength. Because of this range in strength, sometimes fusion occurs and sometimes fission occurs as the quarks are rearranged.
This process has nothing to do with high pressures or temperatures; it all comes down simply to the production of ring currents and magnetic disruption of Higgs superconductivity in the nucleus that this anapole magnetic field produces.
In the case of the cavatation bubble, the bubble acts as a micro-whispering gallery resonator where polariton vortex ring currents produce a negatively charged plasmid whose anopole magnetic beam is pointed at the nearby solid surface.
In sonoluminescence, the dark mode cavity confinement of the polariton plasmoid breaks down and energy from the plasmoid escapes to the far field as ultra-violet and deep blue light as the cavatation bubble collapses.
When the dark mode is maintained in the cavatation bubble, the polariton plasmid vortex stays together long enough to affect the atoms on the surface of the solid material being eroded.
The Proton-21 reaction is similar to that produced by LeClair and may well be as strong resulting is similar levels of transmutation.
In closing, please note that both LeClair and Proton-21 observe gamma radiation up to 10 MeV. This indicates that Bose Einstein condensation (BEC) as produced in the Rossi and DGT NI/H reactors is not required for the production of the LENR reaction. Its role is restricted to the thermalization of Gamma radiation.
However, the intrinsic well ordered nature of the LENR reaction does leave the ash produced by the reaction stable without producing radioactive isotopes.
