Ø And how do we even know this is cold fusion? I think you are the one that is leaping to conclusions here. Maybe wait for some kind of ash analysis first... Yes that is wise. Any and all pronouncements from the sidelines should await isotope analysis, since that is the way science works. In fact with no radioactivity, this looks as much like a version of a fractional hydrogen reaction - f/H – as nuclear. Isotope analysis could move it into the LENR camp - but as of now, no conclusion is justified. It will be noted by those who have shown a propensity to jump to conclusions, that the Rossi testing (Lugano) did reportedly turn up anomalous isotopes – and thus, the experiment is reputedly LENR. Since the Parkhomov experiment was based on Rossi, then the “expectation” is for the identical anomalous isotopes to turn up – pure Ni-62 and a warped lithium balance. But that is only an expectation. FWIW - my expectation is different. IMHO - isotope testing will turn up no substantial level of isotope imbalance in either nickel or lithium, especially NOT the pure Ni-62 reportedly found in Lugano. But the bottom line is that without isotope data from Parkhomov, no one should jump to conclusions at this early stage. Jones
