One theoretical question about LENR is whether it is an electron-capture process, involving the emission of a neutrino, or not.
Today we have neutrino detectors like Kamiokande, or Daya Bay, working to detect neutrino from sun or nuclear reactors. My question is what should be the power of the LENR reactor required to cause a clear signal on those detectors. If we assume heat in NiH reactors is caused by (endothermic) electron-capture followed by (exothermic) absorption H+n+n+n (or Ni+n+n+n...), then some decay with He4... we could maybe compute roughly the heat produced per electron-capture, thus per neutrino emitted. knowing the required neutrino flux, we could estimate (depending on the distance) the power of the LENR reactor that would be easily detected ? did anyone have done that computation. NB: one trick could be to modulate the power of the reactor so the correlation is more clear in the noise.
