Indeed, several groups are currently developing commercial products that produce energy using the “cold fusion� phenomena. Ultimately, the reality of cold fusion will be determined by the public acceptance of commercial devices. People and companies who continue to deny the existence of cold fusion will become irrelevant as the applications are placed into service.

Counts were time stamped and 2 million neutrons were counted in a five minute period. Rapid heating is suspected to produce a large pressure inside the crystalline lattice.

Rothwell Year of Conference: 2012 Title: The Future May Be Better Than You Think Conference Name: 17th International Conference on Cold Fusion Conference Location: Daejeon, Korea Short Title: The Future May Be Better Than You Think Keywords: Commercialization Abstract: Cold fusion researchers are prone to be unduly pessimistic about the potential for cold fusion. They know too much; they are too close to the problem. They may also have unexamined assumptions. Researchers feel put-upon because of political opposition. The LENR-CANR.org website log file proves there is a great deal of interest in this field. There is broad, untapped, latent support for it. The log shows that every week scientists and engineers download thousands of papers on cold fusion. Reference Type: Conference Proceedings Record Number: 4086 Author: H. Sakoh, Y. Miyoshi, A.

We have performed hydrogen isotope absorption runs using the Cu-Ni-ZrO2(CNZ) and Ni-ZrO2(NZ) nano-powders. We observed long-lasting temperature change corresponding to astonishingly large output energy of several hundred eV/atom-Ni. Reference Type: Conference Proceedings Record Number: 4063 Author: M.

This is the perfect environment for a measured DD++ fusion event. (D+ -- D+ ) separation is via electron image charge. Reference Type: Conference Proceedings Record Number: 4061 Author: M. R.

This is accompanied by complicated polarization/transconduction phenomena including an avalanche transconduction electrical breakdown, which has a critical role in excess heat generation. This paper presents a new generation of preloaded LANR (CF) activated nanocomposite ZrO2-PdNiD CF/LANR quantum electronic devices capable of energy gain. These devices dry, glued into electrically conductive, sealed, configurations. The core is ZrO2-(PdNiD) with additional D2 and H2. They are self-contained CF/LANR quantum electronic components containing ZrO2-PdNi-D LANR/CF nanostructured materials which generate significant excess heat from applied electric fields. They also feature two terminals and self-contained superior handling properties enabling portability and transportability. Most importantly, the activation of the desired LANR reactions is, for the first time, separated from the loading of the substrate. Although their development has required control of their breakdown states and the quenching tendencies of nanostructured materials, these ZrO2-PdNiD CF/LANR quantum electronic devices are potentially very useful because they are reproducible active nanostructured CF/LANR quantum electronic devices.

Gordon Year of Conference: 2012 Title: Forcing the Pd/^1 H - ^1H2O System into a Nuclear Active State Conference Name: 17th International Conference on Cold Fusion Conference Location: Daejeon, Korea Short Title: Forcing the Pd/^1 H - ^1H2O System into a Nuclear Active State Keywords: electron capture, theory Abstract: In cells employing cathodes prepared by the co-deposition process, the polarized Pd/D - D2O system becomes nuclear active when the concentration of deuterium, expressed as D/Pd atomic ratio, is equal to or greater than one. In contrast, to activate the polarized Pd/H-H2O system, action of an external magnetic field, modulation of cell current or both, are required. Evidence for the nuclear active state in the Pd/H - H2O system, namely deuterium production, particle emission and catastrophic thermal event, is presented. Extension of nuclear active state to the Pd/^1 H - ^1H2O system under the application of an external magnetic field and modulated cell current profile is discussed.

Szumski Year of Conference: 2012 Title: Nickel Transmutation and Excess Heat Model Using Reversible Thermodynamics Conference Name: 17th International Conference on Cold Fusion Conference Location: Daejeon, Korea Short Title: Nickel Transmutation and Excess Heat Model Using Reversible Thermodynamics Keywords: Theory Abstract: This research develops the Least Action Nuclear Process (LANP) model of cold fusion, by assuming that the process is thermodynamically reversible. This requires: 1) one element of new physical theory, a far-from-equilibrium blackbody equation having a second temperature scale, and 2) a nuclear reaction selection method based in the Principle of Least Action. The model appears to predict nuclear transmutations observed in Miley’s nickel microspheres, without false positives, and provides a plausible explanation of loading and ignition processes, excess heat, no excess heat, and the absence of gamma radiation. The model shows how solar core temperatures can exist in a laboratory temperature device. The presentation is abstracted from a larger technical paper.

Using ICP-MS, the amounts of Pr were measured in the range 10E10 atoms/cm2. The amounts of Pr measured in D2 permeated samples were larger than those in non-D2 permeated samples.

Models of TSC formation conditions in condensed matter are first proposed. Secondly formulas for cold fusion rates per D(H)-cluster are explained with typical quantitative results.

Dusty nebulae observed by astronomers in telescopes observatories around the world show their spiral structure, indicating the rotation. This rotation leads to dynamo effect and the accumulation of a huge electrical charge. During the electric discharge (Bang) spherical plasma formation of planets (stars) have a magnetic and gravitational fields due to the rotating plasma. It is processed and all the collected debris and formed the primary lithosphere (crust), which also constantly absorbed by a spiral rotation of the plasma, called subduction on Earth. . . .

By comparing the system constants (k=?T/?P) in both nitrogen and deuterium atmosphere we found an optimum current (8A) and a deuterium pressure (9×104 Pa) in which the system could release a maximum excess power (more than 80W). The reproducibility was 16/16 and the excess energy released in the longest experiment was about 300MJ within 40 days, which was corresponding to 104 eV for each palladium atom. Analysis of the palladium surface with a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) revealed that some new surface topographical feature with concentrations of unexpected elements (such as Ag, Sn, Pb and Ca) appeared after the current triggering. The results implied that the excess heat might come from a nuclear transmutation.

We have considered the peculiarities and investigated the efficiency of the creation of a correlated state under a periodic action on a harmonic oscillator. This method is shown to lead to rapid formation of a strongly correlated particle state that provides an almost complete clearing of the potential barrier even for a narrow range of oscillator frequency variations. Several successful low energy fusion experiments based on usage of correlated states of interacting particles are discussed. Reference Type: Conference Proceedings Record Number: 4098 Author: V.

Arata Year of Conference: 2012 Title: The Possibility of the Reuse of Nano-Pd Particles for Solid Fusion Conference Name: 17th International Conference on Cold Fusion Conference Location: Daejeon, Korea Short Title: The Possibility of the Reuse of Nano-Pd Particles for Solid Fusion Keywords: nano-particles Abstract: According to the measuring results of our paper presented at ICCF15(2009), helium as an important evidence of solid-state fusion has been confirmed clearly by mass analyzer "QMS". It is well known that the D/Pd ratio larger than 0.88 is favorable to observe an excess heat during the loading of Palladium with deuterium. As for our nano-Pd particles, the D/Pd ratio was expected to reach to 200%~400%. However, after a solid fusion recycle, the produced helium remained inside Pd lattice. The residual helium is considered an awful impurity that restricts the absorption rate of deuterium in palladium, and then destroyed the solid fusion reaction. As the nano-Pd particle is expensive material, to realize the practical utility of solid fusion technology, the reuse of the nano-Pd particle is considered to be the most important thing. In this paper, the possible methods to solve the problem of the reuse of the nano-Pd particle are discussed.
