They find reasons to doubt the results. Tritium has another advantage over heat. Some of the calorimetry in this field has been dubious, with amateur do-it-yourself instruments. Whereas I think most of the tritium studies were done by experts at BARC, Los Alamos and TAMU. They use professional grade off-the-shelf instruments. I suppose there is no such thing as a do-it-yourself tritium detector. In discussions with skeptics I have sometimes pointed out that the people in the BARC Safety Division who detected tritium must be good at their jobs because, as they themselves said: "if we could not detect we would be dead." I have also pointed out that the people who detected tritium at Los Alamos are also impressive, such as Jalbert. See p. 13.3: http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/EPRInsfepriwor.pdf QUOTE: Roland A. Jalbert *25 years working with tritium and tritium detection *involved in the development, design, and implementation of tritium instrumentation for 15 years *for 12 years he has had prime responsibility for the design, implementation, and maintainance of all tritium instrumentation at a major fusion technology development facility (Tritium Systems Test Assembly ). *Consultant on tritium instrumentation to other fusion energy facilities for 10 years (Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor at Princton) After I describe the people at BARC and Jalbert, the discussion ends. I do not recall any instances in which the skeptics responded. However, in other venues and discussions they continue to say they do not believe the tritium results. - Jed
