Dear Mr. Rossi
I hope that you are well.
I was curious about the timeline for the publication of the third party
report. It is my understanding that publication in a peer reviewed
journal is a very long process, often taking a year between submission to
the journal and actual publication. How is it that they will be able to
publish so quickly? Will they be releasing the report directly? 
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I understand that
you are very busy.

Dear Brian:
I do not know when the publication will be made, but I suppose around the
half of April: the peer reviewing is in course since December, when the
third indipendent tests had begun, remember? Then a second phase has been
made, but the reviewing was already in course and substantially the work
has been the same. The last cycle of 120 hours has been a “replica” to
make sure the results were real.

I wish he would cease the nonsense about snakes, clowns and other irrelevant 
subjects.  He needs to concentrate upon the problems at hand and forget about 
the groups that ridicule him.  If he has a real product and the third party 
tests demonstrate the same then he will come out in good shape and we can all 
celebrate.  I hope the wait is not too long this time.

Rossi uses electrical heating inside its eCats for controlling purpose. He
needs to be sure that the energy produced by LENR reaction inside the eCat
is below the maximum output possible (The coolant). Otherwise, the control
of the reaction will be lost and powder will overheat. If it's happen, the
powder looses its magic and the powder becomes LENR inert. Rossi stayed that
a lot of times.

The way of Rossi has presented the mouse/cat configuration let me think that
there are 2 distinguished parts inside the vessel. I'm not convinced that
Rossi controls subtlety each NAE.

Re: EXTERNAL: Re: [Vo]:Rossi says third party tests concluded

2013-03-26 Thread Axil Axil
Control in Rossi’s reactor is proportional to the COP that it produces. Low
COP provides good control, high COP suffers from poor control.

Now, the Rossi reactor is a two stage process with the mouse providing the
control and the Cat providing the power.

The mouse uses heat at a COP near one to give the Cat something it needs to
operate at high power, and that thing is not heat.

My guess is that the Cat food is electrons. The mouse converts input heat
into electrons that feed the Cat.
The Cat turns these electrons into more heat.

I don't share that conclusion.

First: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and all that.

Second: At some point, you will have to agree there can not reasonably 
be such a thing as half believing Rossi. He is either (roughly) speaking 
the truth, or he isn't. If (and I say: if) as it seems we are now close 
to getting independent validation that he really has a LENR+ device (as 
Peter Gluck calls LENR at practical levels), it does not make much sense 
to *not* believe what he said about COP.

First: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and all that.


I hate that aphorism! I really hate it. Here is what Melich and I wrote
about it, in response to the 2004 DoE reviewer #1:


Claim 1.5. “As many have said, extraordinary results require extraordinary
proof. Such proof is lacking.”

This is not a principle of science. It was coined by Carl Sagan for the
1980 “Cosmos” television series. Conventional scientific standards dictate
that extraordinary claims are best supported with ordinary evidence from
off-the-shelf instruments and standard techniques. All mainstream cold
fusion papers present this kind of evidence.

Conventional standards also dictate that all claims and arguments must be
held to the same standards of rigor. This includes skeptical assertions
that attempt to disprove cold fusion, which have been notably lacking in
rigor.

Laplace asserted that “The weight of evidence for an extraordinary claim
must be proportioned to its strangeness.” “Weight of evidence” is a measure
of how much evidence you have, not how extraordinary it is. There is more
evidence for cold fusion than for previously disputed effects. (For
example, although there were a few hundred papers published about
polywater, most were speculative, and only two labs reported success. [ref
Franks])

 Finally, the quality of being “extraordinary” is subjective. What seems
extraordinary to one person seems ordinary to another. Many scientific
phenomena that experts take for granted, such as quantum effects, seemed
extraordinary when they were discovered, and still seem extraordinary to
non-scientists.

 Claim 1.5. “As many have said, extraordinary results require extraordinary
 proof. Such proof is lacking.”

 This is not a principle of science. It was coined by Carl Sagan for the
 1980 “Cosmos” television series. Conventional scientific standards dictate
 that extraordinary claims are best supported with ordinary evidence from
 off-the-shelf instruments and standard techniques. All mainstream cold
 fusion papers present this kind of evidence.


Sagan's statement clearly places him in the pre-Enlightenment mode of
natural science:  A priest.

e-catworld has this update.
UPDATE: Rossi reports that one of the testers told him: ” ” What we have 
seen is too important, must absolutely be published”. Also, in reference 
to the new design of the hot cat, he states: “Basically, we have no more 
a reactor or a cluster of reactors, but each reactor is coupled with an 
activator: let’s make this model: the activator is the Mouse, which 
makes the Cat run. The Mouse has his own COP which is more than 1, the 
Cat is a surprise.”


I speculate the CAT is heated by the activator and so possibly doesn't 
require further heat input.

Rossi talks about charge. The activator could be a charge amplifier.

I make no predictions about the specifics of this report. But I do predict
three things:

1. It will be positive, as he claims. What possible benefit would he derive
from lying about this? As soon as the report comes out people would see he
is lying.

2. It will be published sooner or later. Probably. Who knows when. It is
already a month late, but in this business things are often 5 years late. I
expect Rossi thought carefully about the timing of this, and he has some
reason to let it out now rather than a year ago. Some reason related to
intellectual property I guess.

3. It really is a third party evaluation.

Rossi often exaggerates about his business and other personal things, but
as I have often said, when it comes to technical claims, he tells the
truth. Also, he does what he says he will do. He said he would make a 1 MW
reactor and by golly he did.  He said he had a factory heater. Focardi said
on video I've seen that heater and shown it to others and by golly he did.

If that 1 MW gadget was fake, it was the most expensive and elaborate fake
in the history of fake energy devices. (Most fake devices are small, cheap
and thrown together. I've seen many of them.)

Despite his flamboyant personality and his irritating habits, Rossi is a
force to be reckoned with. I think it is foolish to dismiss him, or make
fun of him, or assume he is a fraud. I can see why people fall into this
trap. As I have said, I think Rossi *wants* people to think he is a fraud.
Many inventors have wanted this.

I admit I could be wrong about all of this. But history shows you should
not bet against irritating, exploitative, monomaniacal geniuses such as
Edison or Jobs, and Rossi sure looks to me like one of them.

I didn't get that message.

I am not sure who the core fans would be. I guess all these people who
started web sites about Rossi. He sure does generate enthusiasm. I am a
little surprised so many of them are still going on, given the paucity of
information. He does not encourage them, as far as I know. It is a strange
symbiosis.

I am not a core fan even though I predict this report is real and will be
published. You never know, because Rossi often changes his mind and his

making the whole thing up.

He is fun to watch.

Good point. I guess it is one thing to announce vague grand plans to make
200,000 reactors a year. No one takes the grand plans seriously. It seems
more crazy to make a specific announcement about a plausible test . . .
which turns out to be a fiction.



 My worries are about the quality of the report.


Yeah. It could be another cursory test where they do not even list the type
of flowmeter in the report. Let us hope not. We'll see. Or we won't see.

There is no point to getting your hopes up much with Rossi. He may well
announce a drastic change in plans and a two-year delay.

BOLOGNA. Completed the day before the test VALIDATION

of various universities and nationalities. The
official results will be published and made known
in the coming months.
We are happy to announce that, as announced in

whose specific aim was to ascertain, beyond
a reasonable doubt, that the case

Therefore, during the long period of validation, went to

people, including physics professors and experts, belong
containing four universities in different countries.
Independent validators have had a chance

Measuring wanted on their reactors disposizi
one: the only limitation was that it would open the
reactors themselves, in which is contained the secret industrial
strial, and that these were tested at normal
regime of power for its customers, ie not
pushed to the maximum.
The scientists involved have worked in more t
otal autonomy, neither Rossi nor any person
external to the group of validators participated in the
their briefing and planning of their
measurements, and they all wanted to pay him the
travel expenses, room and board.
The test results will be published and made pub
