Alan -
Why would a self-powered experiment of adequate run time not eliminate all possible fakes? Note: the experiment is contained on a moveable cart - no wires, cables, or other connectors going in or out. It can be started from grid power and then moved out of doors if necessary. There can be a flood-light to prove a small excess. How can this be faked if the run time is sufficient ? Jones From: Alan J Fletcher Since we're not going to get a ONE experiment which eliminates ALL Fakes I'm moving towards a slightly more probabilistic approach http://lenr.qumbu.com/rossi_ecat_proof_frames_v501.php I've added a 2x2 evaluation to each method (fake material): We also estimate the Fake's Feasibility (could it be made) and Concealability (could it escape immediate detection). For example, a fake powered by Batteries is both Feasible and Concealable. One powered by Diesel fuel is Feasible, but since its output fumes would instantly be noticed, it is not Concealable. Clearly this ranking is subjective, and would be different for different volumes. This gives a five-step scale (which I display with a color code) : Feasible, Concealable -- RED Feasible, Not Concealable -- PINK Not Feasible, Concealable -- YELLOW Not Feasible, Not Concealable -- PALE GREEN Real (ie all fakes eliminated) -- GREEN These colors are shown both for the materials, and for an experiment in which a fake is not eliminated. I'm also working on an automatic generation of a table of the "best" (and maybe "worst") fakes for each experiment -- but it's in development and not working correctly. Also, I've changed the name of the files to include "proof" rather than "fake".
