Dear Reader,
I have always been fascinated with physics and I felt like it was impossible that for the Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) no relatively simple, although somehow extraordinary, explanation could be found. So I studied the literature and came up with a “theory” (this term is actually a bit too much for what I propose here) that should not slip outside the accepted basic principles of Physics.
Necessary Premise: during my University studies, MANY years ago, I actually studied Atomic Physics, Solid State Physics, Quantum Electronics, … but I am NOT a Physicist neither a specialist of nuclear or atomic physics. I am just a curious person that earns a living with numerical simulations. In my job I am used to investigate complex problems trying to simplify them as much as possible without loosing any fundamental feature.
Many people have their own theories about LENR. I add myself to the long list with what is not actually a complete and closed theory. The ingredients that I mixed in this “theory” come mainly from what real researchers did put forward in the LENR and other fields, together with some intuition and some calculations.
The fact that no LENR theory has gained definitive success, means that some unusual ingredient that contradicts the so called "standard model" is indeed necessary. My theory in fact requires a single "non-standard ingredient" ...
Essentially I think that the LENR are possible because the force that keeps nucleons together, commonly called nuclear force, is actually a purely electromagnetic effect, which, as such, can, in very special conditions, manifest also between the electron and the hydrogen nuclei. From this coupling a set of three neutral new particles can form. I called them Hydronions.
These neutral particles, which interact with matter only through their large magnetic moment, can then couple through the same electromagnetic mechanism that keeps them together with almost any other nucleus.
The electromagnetic attraction I am talking about is nothing more than what Prof. Valerio Dallacasa and Norman Cook proposed back in the 1980s. It is a magnetic force due to the rotation of the point charges inside nucleons. Since the electron has an intrinsic rotation as well, which is commonly called Zitterbewegung, the magnetic force should manifest as well between nucleons/nuclei and the electron.
With these ingredients free neutrons are produced only under exceptional conditions and the huge nuclear energy quanta fractionate electromagnetically, mainly in the Extreme Ultra Violet range, without any ad hoc mechanism.
If I had to give it all a name I would call it:
"Electron Mediated Nuclear Reactions": EMNR.
Here you can find a presentation that is the most updated material I have now:

In the hope that I can get some comments from you, I prepared a trivial blog. I would appreciate any kind of criticism/comment/suggestion on any part of my theory.
Thank you in advance for your contribution.
