EE Times: Latest News Cold fusion experimentally confirmed R. Colin Johnson EE Times (03/23/2009 8:43 PM EDT) PORTLAND, Ore. — U.S. Navy researchers claimed to have experimentally confirmed cold fusion in a presentation at the American Chemical Society's annual meeting. "We have compelling evidence that fusion reactions are occurring" at room temperature, said Pamela Mosier-Boss, a scientist with the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (San Diego). The results are "the first scientific report of highly energetic neutrons from low-energy nuclear reactions," she added. Cold fusion was first reported in 1989 by researchers Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons, then with the University of Utah, prompting a global effort to develop the technology. Normal fusion reactions, where hydrogen is fused into helium, occur at millions of degrees inside the Sun. If room temperature fusion reactions could be realized commercially, as Fleishchmann and Pons claimed to have achieved inside an electrolytic cell, it promised to produce abundant nuclear energy from deuterium--heavy hydrogen--extracted from seawater. Other scientists were unable to duplicate the 1989 results, thereby discrediting the work. The theoretical underpinnings of cold fusion have yet to be adequately explained. The hypothesis is that when electrolysis is performed on deuteron, molecules are fused into helium, releasing a high-energy neutron. While excess heat has been detected by researchers, no group had yet been able to detect the missing neutrons. Now, the Naval researchers claim that the problem was instrumentation, which was not up to the task of detecting such small numbers of neutrons. To sense such small quantities, Mosier-Boss used a special plastic detector called CR-39. Using co-deposition with nickel and gold wire electrodes, which were inserted into a mixture of palladium chloride and deutrium, the detector was able to capture and track the high-energy neutrons. Silvered Dewar calorimeter used by Navy researchers to detect neutron emissions from a cold fusion process. The plastic detector captured a pattern of tiny clusters of adjacent pits, called triple tracks, which the researchers claim is evidence of the telltale neutrons. Other presenters at the conference also presented evidence supporting cold fusion, including Antonella De Ninno, a scientist with New Technologies Energy and Environment (Rome), who reported both excess heat and helium gas. "We now have very convincing experimental evidence," De Ninno claimed. Tadahiko Mizuno of Japan's Hokkaido University also reported excess heat generation and gamma-ray emissions. All three research groups are currently exploring both experimental and theoretical studies in hopes of better understanding the cold fusion process well enough to commercialize it. Research funding was provided by the Department of the Navy and JWK International Corp. (Annandale, Va.).
Poster Comment: how about that. some more of that crank science being proven right, only by the military industrial complex.....i guess we can believe it now, since they'll let us.

Skeptical at best, and even practical experience leads me to believe that even such a breakthrough would be rationed, cartelized, regulated, and enforced as to mean little to the average working slob. We need sticks. And Tackle. :)

Actually that is not true. Some window dressing was done to discredit it - but the correct protocols were not followed, and positive results buried, in the so-called experiments aimed at disproving cold fusion. Pons and Fleischman did not originally intend to go public when they did as they wanted to do more lab work. Once "the cat was out of the bag" they were forced by death threats to move to Europe to continue their work. Some of what I have read on it suggested that their was some confirmation of Pons and Fleischman's work. However the the big gun was the faulty experiment conducted by The reality is that the PTB do not want the general public to have energy independence as that is one of their control strings and profit centers. With cheap energy from a safe, reliable, backyard power plant the general public could thumb their nose at the energy biz - including the big oil companies. Every now and then a new breakthrough will get a little reportage, but after the initial report you never hear another peep about it. It is just like the "untimely" death of the editor of "Infinite Energy Magazine" Dr. Eugene Mallove. While evidence suggests that it was not a political murder it was nevertheless bad timing for the alternate energy crowd. Written by Dr. Mallove after he resigned his position at M.I.T. in protest: Dr. Mallove was killed in May of 2004 - apparently when he interupted a burglary.

thats the whole enchilada there....energy. the entire economy, a unit of money, represents energy. if you can find a cheap or 'free' source for it, the whole control game is finished. it will do for the control of energy what the internet did for the control of information.

did you hear about the recent article where scientists actually did create matter from energy, a la holodeck.... combine that tech with a free/cheap energy source and you've got some amazing applications...unlimited energy, unlimited production of whatever for a very small cost.

i think its going to happen someplace no matter what. i wonder what india and china have come up with. steorn out of ireland already has demo'd their magnetic motor, but i really haven't followed that one.

Hell, paying income tax is theoretically voluntary, why wouldn't the same con be in place for unlimited power? It's not about material wealth, it's about control.

Wouldn't that just frost the little bobbers off of our would-be "Lords and Masters"? I think they would kill anyone who succeeded in doing that. It just wouldn't do to have the Proles telling the master class to fuck-off.

"Satan / Cheney in "08" If Cold Fusion is such a threat to the big controllers of energy, it would mean that anyone with the materials could make it happen. If it were possible for the average guy to make coldfusion energy happen in his house, the last thing in the world that the powers that be would want, would be for that little secret to get out. Which leads me to believe that this is something that is very complicated, and not everyone can do, thus takes time and money to develop it into something extraordinary. I'm not sure that it's a grand scheme so much as it is a lack of technical knowledge and access to materials.

The average guy would be able to create lots of neutrons in his house, giving him not just free energy, but ample radioactivity. Considering the PTB don't like the average guy having gunpowder, they probably won't want him storing up isotopes either.

Not that I know of, but we do have our points of correspondence. ;-) I will go further in that I believe people have already been killed to keep technologic breakthroughs off the market. I have related my father's experience before, but in a nut shell he was a garage tinkerer, and built a wheel-like device that would spin continuously with no outside input. The device turned up missing and he would never ever talk about why. Even I have to speculate, but I think he was given a "warning" that to rebuild it would be unhealthy. There are a lot of stories, when you start digging, which hint at suppressed technology that would upset the status quo and potentially, in their psychotic minds, threaten the power of the controlling Banksters. They are ruthless and there are too many instances I am aware of where they will, if necessary, take out several hundred people just to kill one. So, we are not talking about your nice "movie villains".

Sure. take the fun out of everything. An American should be allowed to have isotopes. How else will we be able to see in the dark?

Instead of taking things to the patent office, people who create this sort of thing should keep it to themselves. I know that if I created anything that would harness free energy, the last people I'd tell, are the news media. I'd just take my house off the grid, and move on with my life, never paying another dime to the power company.

Yes, exactly. Though I'd do one more thing. I'd spread the information on how to construct such a device across the internet on every website that would allow me to post. I'd have pamphlets handed out at shopping malls with the instructions, I'd have billboards up and paid for, all in one fell swoop over the course of a day or two (not by me of course, I'd have already high tailed it to Wyoming). It's strange because normally I'm 100% all about profit when it comes to the fruit of my labor, but I really do think that any kind of "free" energy (or easily constructed semi-free energy) would take a lot of power away from the IQ 92 "elite".
MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

CIA M.I.T. which did not follow the correct protocols and seems to have been aimed at preventing people from exploring the concept. With the publication of the M.I.T. hit piece the grant money dried up - which I am sure was the intent. "I was the Chief Science Writer at the MIT news office when the cold fusion story out of Utah broke on March 23, 1989. It turns out the cold fusion effect was real. In fact, what Pons and Fleischmann found was only the tip of an iceberg. There are huge quantities of technical literature published by proponents, and a much smaller amount by the people who found so-called negative results….One day while at MIT, I inadvertently was looking through some piles of paper by physicists doing their repeat of the Pons-Fleischmann experiment. To my utter astonishment, I can remember sitting at my desk and actually seeing two sheets of paper, one dated July 10 and another July 13. The July 10 control experiment showed in the raw data excess heat. But then, on July 13, it was shifted completely. It was altered. Clear fraud—no question. I asked for a review at MIT. I got nowhere. Yet today, MIT data is held up. There has been an extraordinary abrogation of legal responsibility at the Patent Office and the Department of Energy on the matter of cold fusion. There is serious criminal activity going on that ultimately must be rooted out if the cold fusion and new energy revolution are to go forward. "
