LANL. Workshop on Cold Fusion Phenomena. 1989. Santa Fe, NM: Los Alamos National Laboratory
Program Committee, Agenda and Abstracts https://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/LANLworkshopon.pdf This shows that there was a lot of support for cold fusion research at the DoE initially. A number of these abstracts list DoE grants. In retrospect, I wish they had spread out their support, allocating money in the years that followed, when more was understood. There were a number of researchers here doing the wrong things. Especially, people looking for nuclear effects without first confirming there was excess heat. Without measurable excess heat, there is probably no cold fusion. As Fleischmann said, heat is principal signature of the reaction.
