-----Original Message----- From: SHIRAKAWA Akira Thank you for posting this but for the record, the conclusions of Kullander are wrong. Not just wrong but irresponsible and foolish.
First he says: "Analyses of the nickel powder used in Rossi's energy catalyzer show that a large amount of copper is formed." The Facts: There is evidence of the presence of copper but that is all. If it were formed by transmutation some of it should be radioactive. In fact there is a mundane explanation for the presence of copper. Sven Kullander considers this to be evidence of a nuclear reaction" "For copper to be formed out of nickel, the nucleus of nickel has to capture a proton. The fact that this possibly occurs in Rossi's reactor is why the concept of cold fusion has been mentioned - it would consist of fusion between nuclei of nickel and hydrogen." The facts: Yes but if this were the case there would be a wide variation in the balance of isotopes. Element and isotopic analysis showed that the isotopic analysis through ICP-MS doesn't show any deviation from the natural isotopic composition of nickel and copper. The mistakes of Kullander are juvenile and silly. There is a mundane explanation for both copper and iron so why invent a reaction that does not exist? Jones
