More rossi-sez : Brian March 29th, 2013 at 9:02 AM 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. Andrea Rossi March 29th, 2013 at 1:01 PM 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. Warm Regards, A.R. And on the cat-and mouse : Paul March 28th, 2013 at 9:35 AM Andrea, Regarding the exploits of mice and cats: I believe the warm feeling the cat has is because it has already swallowed the mouse. There is usually a bias between mice and cats. Can you use this bias to stimulate the mouse to its full potential? Paul Andrea Rossi March 28th, 2013 at 10:32 AM Dear Paul: Yes, giving to the Mouse a snake to eat. Warm Regards, A.R.

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.

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

There is more evidence for cold fusion than for previously disputed effects.

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.

Re: [Vo]:Rossi says third party tests concluded
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. - Jed

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 plans. He may cancel at the last minute.

Re: [Vo]:Rossi says third party tests concluded
As 22 passi writes, if this is false (or made up) this will be proof of crazyness. There are some limits to everything. My worries are about the quality of the report.

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. - Jed

Completed the day before the test VALIDATION and the Hot Cat by third-party independent. Involved more than a dozen experts 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 preview Eng. Andrea Rossi, week just ended were completed test sull'Hot Cat performed by independent third parties , whose specific aim was to ascertain, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the case of a source of energy and non-traditional COP eff ective of the apparatus, that is, substantially the relationship between the output power and that provided the n input. Therefore, during the long period of validation, went to boast for months with repeated tests on the three reactors made available by Leonardo Corp, are stat and accurate measurements made by 11 people, including physics professors and experts, belong containing four universities in different countries. Independent validators have had a chance A to carry out, in recent months, any of 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 ders in the coming months, but it is Rossi himself to leaked the first rumors on his blog: I v alidatori told me that the last test lasted 120 hours of uninterrupted went well and that e ffetto is real beyond a reasonable doubt . He added the commercial director of Prometheus n, Aldo Proia: The validation performed by independent third parties, while being essentially u na confirmation of what the previously measured by Rossi in his test, its purpose is scientific , But it is hard to imagine that it can be soon a major impact on both the world dell'energ ia that the financial markets. Recall that the Hot Cat is a revolutionary reactor King, based on reactions LENR, capable of providing to high temperatures (around 600 ° C) large amounts A thermal energy in the face of modest amounts energy supplied in input, with considerable savings My for the user.
