The Novel ”controlled Intermediate Nuclear Fusion” and Its Possible Industrial Realization as Predicted by Hadronic Mechanics and Chemistry

In this note, we propose, apparently for the first time, a new type of controlled nuclear fusion called ”intermediate” because occurring at energies intermediate between those of the ”cold” and ”hot” fusions, and propose a specific industrial realization. For this purpose: 1) We show that known limitations of quantum mechanics, quantum chemistry and special relativity cause excessive departures from the conditions occurring for all controlled fusions; 2) We outline the covering hadronic mechanics, hadronic chemistry and isorelativity specifically conceived, constructed and verified during the past two decades for new cleans energies and fuels; 3) We identify seven physical laws predicted by the latter disciplines that have to be verified by all controlled nuclear fusions to occur; 4) We review the industrial research conducted to date in the selection of the most promising engineering realization as well as optimization of said seven laws; and 5) We propose with construction details a specific hadronic reactor (patented and international patents pending), consisting of actual equipment specifically intended for the possible industrial production of the clean energy released by representative cases of controlled intermediate fusions for independent scrutiny by interested colleagues. 1. Limitations of Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Chemistry and Special Relativity. Following the pioneering research by Fleishmann, Pons and Hawkins [1a] of 1989 vast research [1b,1c,1d] has confirmed the existence of Low Energy Controlled Nuclear Fusions (LECNF) popularly called ”Cold Fusion” (CF). Nevertheless, the achievement of an industrially relevant energy output has remained evasive, and none is in sight at the moment on strict scientific grounds. Similarly, additional research supported by a collective international investment of about one billion dollars has shown that the High Energy Controlled Nuclear Fusion (HECNF), popularly called ”Hot Fusion” (HF), can indeed be attained in laboratory, although this research too has not achieved results of industrial significance, and none is in sight at the moment, due to uncontrollable instabilities at the initiation of the fusions and other reasons. In view of the above protracted insufficiencies at high and low energies, in this paper we propose, apparently for the first time, a new type of nuclear synthesis under the name of Intermediate Energy Controlled Nuclear Fusions (IECNF), or ”Intermediate Fusion” (IF) for short.
