Avalanche proton fusion (APF): an unlimited Source of energy for the nearest future © Project Avalanche, 2013
LANR: main principles • APF = Avalanche Proton Fusion, a type of LANR (Lattice-Assisted Nuclear Reaction) • Protons fuse in a specific crystal lattice forming heavier elements in an avalanche-type reaction • We call this “Avalanche fusion”. It is a chain-type reaction taking place at (relatively) low temperatures • Each act of fusion releases a portion of energy • Radiation by-products are weak and soft • Reaction of fusion produces light, middle, and heavy stable elements • Energy potential of Avalanchereaction is tremendous. © Project Avalanche, 2013

AF Stage 1. Load of Lattice and orientation of protons. • Early Stage… • 1Н1+ 1Н1=> 2He2(*) + e- =>2D1(*) • 1-st Cascade • 2D1 (*) + 1Н1+ e- => 3T1 (*) (1) • 2D1(*) + 1Н1=> 3Нe2(*) (2) W1+W2+W3 = 100% • 2D1(*) + 2D1=> 4Нe2(*) (3) • 2-nd Cascade • 3He2(*) + 3Нe2=> 6Li3(*) => 6Li3 • 3Нe2(*) + 4He2=> 7Li3(*) => 7Li3 • 4Нe2(*) + 3He2=> 7Li3(*) => 7Li3 © Project Avalanche, 2013

When it happens, long-range attraction force makes them SPONTANEOUSLY fuse with each other into Deuteron. This is the PRIMARY ACT of AVALANCHE NUCLEAR FUSION. © Project Avalanche, 2013

The Principles of Avalanche Fusion (an alternative to Widom-Larsen Theory) • After each act of fusion there are two alternatives: • 1 – continue fusion with a neighbor or • 2 – release heat and become unable to react • 1Н1+ 1Н1=> 2He2 (*) + e- =>2D1(*) • Further stages: Nucleosynthesis of Oxygen © Project Avalanche, 2013
Example with nucleosynthesis of Gold Avalanche fusion channel of Gold { H>He>Li>B>Ne>Ca>Sr>Ag>Au} goes through 109Ag. Participation of 197At is necessary. © Project Avalanche, 2013

Theoria cum Praxis • There are about two hundreds of theories on different stages of development, however… • There is no theory adequately (numerically) explaining or predicting the process – except APF. • Till recently there was no commercially viable prototypes. First appeared Oct. 2011 • While competition is moving mostly intuitively – we’ve got fully-fledged working numerical model. © Project Avalanche, 2013
Experimental Stand • Self-made / self-funded • Able to provide only qualitative results • See separate Experimental Movie (May 2012) © Project Avalanche, 2013
Scientific and Practical Conclusions • Coulomb’s law at small distances works differently depending on spine of Protons orientation in a crystal lattice • Electrical potential is an independent and elementary substance equivalent to the nuclear force at Fermi distances • Spherical symmetry of the electric field is violated in favor of it’s axial symmetry. • Driving force is the aspiration to the minimum of the full energy of the electric field. • Specific spatial distribution of the electric charge density on very small distances leadsto corresponding potential gradients causing forces identical to nuclear forces. © Project Avalanche, 2013
