I assumed Rossi okayed the invitations. Maybe it was his partner.

Levi's labels the horiz part as the reactor, and that of course is where the radiation detector is placed, and he calls the vertical part a pipe. In Villa's report, he writes: "... horizontal metallic tube (...) as the reaction chamber, a vertical tube for steam output" They could be wrong, but that's where it came from.
