Hi all, I wanted to ask you how to best do a test proving LENR. After following this for a short time I would probably try something like this,
I would use two teams 1. The testers, people well versed in LENR and know how to make the classic FP experiment work. 2. The skeptics, a scientific team which task is to observe the testers so that they follow the rules and performs the tests without any dirty trick. 3. To this we need one or two people, the test managers, to administrate the test. The main rule are that no one is allowed to test the water for knowing if it is heavy or not. (appart for the FP effect) Before the testers are asked to prepare say N samples, so that we are pretty sure to see the F & P effect will appear at least n times under the assumption that P(water is heavy) = 1/2 The administrators will randomize the type of water used in the test and hide it for the teams. After all the tests have been performed, one should be able to decide among, H0: the seen effect if it's seen, does not depend on the type of water H1: It does depend on the type of water. Of cause current experience and the help of people well versed in setting up statistical tests should be consulted. Shouldn't this kind of test be possible and wouldn't a rejecting of H0 be a amazing fact for any sceptic? It should show 1. The FP effect is real and 2. The nucleus have to be involved in some way, hence LENR. WDYT?
