Part 2/16:
At the heart of LENR lies a fundamentally coherent matter-driven process. Simply put, LENR involves a collective, organized behavior of matter that results in nuclear-like reactions without the extreme temperatures and pressures typical of mainstream nuclear physics. To initiate LENR, two key conditions must be met:
Charge separation, which creates a potential gradient.
Multi-axis magneto-hydrodynamic shear, which involves complex, fractal-like magnetic and fluid dynamic forces.
This process is rooted in the self-organization of fractal toroidal current structures—an idea supported by natural phenomena like ball lightning, which shows analogous behavior.
