What might have taken place is charge separation…, 50% of the reactions in D+D fusion results in a fast proton, this proton is able to escape the hollow cathode through either of the two appertures, resulting in a diametric ejection of positively charged particles. These 1 Mev particles easily climb up the -50 to -100 Kv potential, and go to ground, thereby leaving the cathode with a negative charge. What I was able to do, was to turn off the power supply that supplied the negative potential to the cathode, and watch as the reaction continued by itself. It should however be noted, that I had a 30 watt ion gun running, which supplied a steady current of ions.

But why were there no bubbles?

Nevertheless, if it is true you have a plausible mechanism for charge separation maybe it is time to write a paper and submit it to a peer reviewed journal/conference? Or perhaps talk to somebody in academia to try and get them to cooperate with you and repeat your experiment?

In the meantime your patent is pending so that should provide adequate protection of your intellectual property.
