Ok, here's another coincidence. For years I have been using a photopolymer
whose quantum yield is far over unity. This is a formulation I discovered by a
lot of experimenting. I use this in my work, so it remains and will remain a
trade secret. And the preferred wavelength is....wait for it....532 nm. I doubt
if this is a related phenomenon, but who knows?

Holmlid notably uses laser pulses in the 532 nm spectra to form ultra dense
hydrogen or deuterium.
As it turns out, the same greenish spectra of the laser has also been used to
form the breakthrough material which has been called "the first room
temperature superconductor" a few months ago ( Note that there have been
numerous other strong claims for this breakthrough before, but Wiki sez this
one is the first - although it is not clear who has replicated the work).

Anyway ... the point of this post being that laser irradiation at this exact
frequency 532 nm also turns up in another disparate situations where hydrogen
densification is apparent.
Previously with the Holmlid work, observers thought or assumed that the
greenis laser spectra related to irradiation of the catalyst, not the hydrogen
itself.
The RTSC work would seem to indicate that it is the hydrogen which is
responding to the photons not the catalyst, which although coherent (the
wavelength) is spatially way out of proportion to interact with atoms of
hydrogen... many orders of magnitude difference, in fact.
Somehow, I get the strange feeling that this detail - the identical laser
wavelength used to activate hydrogen, is not coincidental...
