Abstract
In 1989 Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons
announced to the media that they had discovered
"cold fusion." Immediately, other scientists
around the world tried to replicate their
results. Most failed. Establishment science
eventually dismissed it as an illusion, if not an
outright hoax. "Cold fusion" became the epithet
of choice for unorthodox scientific claims. Yet a
few researchers soldiered on, accumulating an
impressive body of work. To get an overview, I
turned to Dr. Jan Marwan, an independent
researcher in Berlin, who recently organized a
symposium on "cold fusion" for the annual meeting
of the American Chemical Society, and who, with
the ACS, is editing a series of three volumes of
papers on the subject for Oxford University
Press. It's stillcontroversial and why not,
it's practically a new branch of science but
"cold fusion"appears to be gaining legitimacy.
You should listen and decide for yourself. Total
