I do not see any problem with Krivit's characterization of cold fusion. In a sense, all man-made nuclear systems are a hybrid of either chemical or mechanical systems plus nuclear power. In a bomb, a chemical reaction triggers a fission reaction which in turn triggers a fusion reaction. In a

Actually the issue is more complicated than Jed describes. Conventional belief is that the chemical environment has very little or no effect on whether a nuclear reaction will occur. The cold fusion process challenges this belief. Normally, nuclear processes require too much energy to

To our knowledge, this is the first scientific report of the production of highly energetic neutrons from a LENR device, added the study's co-author in a statement. Really? REALLY really? On Wed, Mar 25, 2009 at 2:10 AM, Esa Ruoho esaru...@gmail.com wrote:
