New approach to cold nuclear transmutation theory

The cold transmutation observed on the surfaces of Sr- or Cs-doped Pd/(CaP + Pd)Pd complexes is interpreted to be a result of virtual fX particle addition by the confinement of four interstitial solute deuterons jumping from four tetragonal sites to octahedral sites along [111] directions in a Pd/CaP lattice and electrostatic attraction due to the charge transfer in the chains of atoms; i.e., an alternating tetrahedral-octahedral site array with the aid of the electron-phonon charge-density wave coupling and electropionic attraction effects due to the capture of excited electrons from Pd and Ca by vacuum pumping: ₃₈⁸⁸Sr + 4₁²[D + 8e* → ₄₂⁹⁶Mo and ₅₅¹³³Cs + 4 ₁²D + 8e* → ₅₉¹⁴¹Pr. The deuterons are a source of supply for reparation for mass balance in the transmutation. The roles of CaP are dissolution of Sr and Cs and the creation of a good route for deuteron rushing.
