A soft touch person is easily persuaded or deceived. However, if this gullibility is applied to the electromagnetic field, it can initiate plasma oscillation at the scale of a few femtometers without consequently upsetting the overall integrity of the nucleus. Moreover, if the nucleus in question is the deuteron then oscillating protons and neutrons allows the rearrangements of these nucleons which would enhance the onset of fusion reaction at room temperature. This type of nuclear reactions is called cold fusion. One caveat happens to be a requirement of gamma rays wavelength for the electromagnetic waves in transit.

Presently, it seems no other softer touches are possible which would further shorten the wavelengths of the electromagnetic waves in action. On the contrary harder touches require longer wavelengths and consequently less energy. Unfortunately, long wavelength electromagnetic waves cannot initiate cold fusion by itself. There must be other enhancements that together with long wavelength lasers would effectively allow cold fusion to take place. One possible connection is the external configuration of the magnetic field. Another is the purity of the vacuum. Strong magnetic field would encourage splitting of nuclear energy levels while vacuum purity would allow the participation of virtual photons. However, testing these options requires the handling of different forms of soft touches.
