I have no problem with the potential feasibility of comparatively low temperature nuclear reactions. Perhaps that's because I am not a nuclear physicist but either way it's fine. I am not looking for information on why it might happen. I am looking for a "killer" paper that proves it *did* happen. I keep hearing from Jed Rothwell and others that such papers are around but whenever I look at something about cold fusion it's usually theoretical. If it's a report of an experiment, it's often unclear what they did and why and how. In other cases it's a very brief run and a very small amount of excess energy measured by a not very good calorimetric methods. In other experiments, there is insufficient control (in the scientific sense) and calibration. I have not found anything compelling to prove that cold fusion has been achieved. A single spectacular or at least very clear and convincing NON THEORETICAL experiment report sort of paper that proves it is all I'm asking for.
