Simulation of the Nuclear Transmutation Effects in LENR

LENR phenomena begin with a still poorly-understood entrance of a fermion/boson into the nuclear interior. One such mechanism – the thermal neutron-induced fission of uranium – was discovered in 1938 and subsequently revolutionized global military conflict and international politics [1]. Modern research indicates the reality of multiple LENR mechanisms in small and medium-sized nuclei [2], promising another revolution in energy production. Conceptually, LENR implies an expansion of the “central dogma” of the dynamics of atomic systems, ca. 1932, to a dogma that includes a mechanism of nuclear excitation by particles that enter the nucleus through the atom’s own electromagnetic periphery [3] (the solid arrow): Neutrons Protons Electrons
