I missed the report of the Cu analysis by the Swedes on their first test. Is
that info in their first report?
If there was 10% Cu in the ash, I would not expect to see an unusual isotopic
composition anyway.
Rossi may not have understood the science but I thin Focardi did.

I am not so sure that Rossi is completely wrong…. If the
first step is to create heavy electrons that facilitate the reaction of a
proton with a Ni nucleus, Rossi may be correct.
Bob,
Normally we expect that the inventor understands his device, but you are
aware of the problems with that view - has anything changed?
There is no known nuclear reaction of nickel which produces only stable
isotopes as ash, and no reaction with a proton to go to copper which matches
the facts- which are no gammas and no radioactive isotopes, and with no
disproportion of isotopes compared to natural ratios.
The Swedes already did isotope analysis of the copper in the ash (which is
definitely there at about 10%) and found the isotope ratio was completely
natural, with no radioactivity and no indication of transmutation. They
concluded that the copper (and iron) was there initially. They found no
light elements.
Of course, one can invent another miracle, besides the first miracle of
nuclear fusion, and assert that not only does proton-addition happen, but it
is a new kind of fusion reaction, previously unknown to physics which
creates only stable isotopes; but then the third miracle is the isotope
ratio, which must remain completely natural. That is three miracles
required.
Many of Rossi’s supporters will not rule out nickel to copper, despite
“conservation of miracles”, since the inventor believes it to be true and he
should be given benefit of doubt. FWIW - my view is that Rossi does not
understand his own invention, nor do the top experts like Ed Storms. It
simply cannot involve transmutation of nickel to copper or the fusion of
protons to deuterium (which will eventually produce tritium, which is
absent). The Swedes ran it for 6 months, and they will have lots of tritium
to show us - if this is what Ed Storms believes it to be.
But after 6 months if there is no substantial tritium then there is no
hydrogen fusion at all, and we must look for other explanations.
I am still optimistic for a Saturday release of the report. It is the
midsummer holiday in Sweden and June 21 was the date in 1633 when Galileo
was forced by the Inquisition to abjure his Copernican views… a fitting day
for any pariah to confront the mainstream stance.
