I don't know of any gravitational effects related to actual CF. However, Mitchell Schwartz, who posts here sometimes and is publiher of COLD FUSION TIMES, has published on the existence of *calorimetry anomalies* relating to gravity. Issues related to convection and stratification are important to the design of reliable calorimeters. Improperly designed calorimeters can give false data regarding CF. Calorimetry is vitally important to the study of CF because the heat signature of CF does not appear concurrent with the high energy particle emissions characteristic of hot fusion.
