Is it possible--safe-- to cure the glue under a H2 atmosphere and pressure to
allow the sealing to occur with adequate H2? If O2 is necessary for curing,
maybe a different high temperature cement would work.

Based on analysis of Lugano and Parkhomov work, excess heat begins at about
950C. The MFMP dogbone core was measured to be over 1200C and no excess heat
was found. The likely suspect is that the glue used to seal the reactor tube
failed, allowing a leak of the H2 when the LiAlH4 decomposed. The experiment
was shut down because going higher in temperature risked burnout of the dogbone
heater coil and the excess heat should already have been seen at a lower
temperature than the 1200C core temperature that was achieved.
Ryan Hunt is going to try again. We will try to contact Parkhomov to ask
what cement he used to seal his reactor. We are also looking at ways to test
the seals that we make.

I have a hunch that was too hot. As the proverbial shaggy dog was too
shaggy, since we are using dog-related images here.
