Vantasner AG builds a metal hydride plus piezoelectric excess-heat device. These eight cluster files aggregate the body of reported work we build on. Each file is a neutral record table (who, when, venue and digital object identifier (DOI), setup, materials, loading, excitation, conditions, reported outputs) plus a short narrative plus "Carry into device" bullets: the design lesson and the parameter we adopt. Search date for all clusters: 2026-10-21.

File Cluster The design question it answers for the device
01-navy-codeposition.md Navy Pd/D co-deposition (SPAWAR) and China Lake calorimetry How electrochemistry loads palladium with deuterium in situ, and how calorimetry plus track detectors were paired in one cell
02-ultrasound-sonofusion.md Ultrasound, sonofusion and cavitation transmutation What acoustic cavitation does to deuterated matter: hot-spot physics, transients, and the drive hardware it needs
03-excess-heat-programs.md Electrochemical excess-heat programs Loading thresholds, triggering, and the calorimetry discipline the 2019 Google program codified, all carried into our drive schedule
04-heated-hydrides-gas-loading.md Heated hydrides with H2 and D2 gas loading Powder reactors: which host materials, temperatures, pressures and loading ratios produced reported heat, and the hardware class we copy
05-electron-screening.md Electron screening accelerator measurements in metals The quantitative core: screening potentials of tens to hundreds of electronvolts by host metal, structure and temperature, our rate lever
06-pyroelectric-fusion.md Pyroelectric crystal fusion and pyroelectric ion sources Proof that a crystal-built field ionizes and accelerates deuterons to fusion energies: the work we assign to piezoelectric force chains
07-low-energy-yield-plateau.md Low-energy fusion yield plateau (UC Davis / Berkeley, Thunderbird 2025) The 2026 plateau result and its thermal-track rival: the exact disagreement our mechanically driven suspension is built to discriminate
08-piezonuclear-fracto-fusion.md Piezonuclear and fracto-fusion records Fracture and impact as transient deuteron sources: burst kinetics and the detector conditions used when this was tested

How the clusters stack into the device: cluster 05 sets the rate lever (screening), cluster 07 sets the target enhancement and the discriminating measurement, cluster 04 sets the host materials and gas-loading hardware, clusters 01 and 03 set loading and calorimetry discipline, clusters 02 and 08 set the mechanical excitation routes, cluster 06 sets the field-ion-source precedent. Parameter values from all eight converge in SCIENCE-AND-FOUNDATIONS.md; the build order lives in PLAN-12-MONTH.md.
