Rossi tells IE, “We are making a thorough series of tests with the
University of Bologna, which will be 12 months long with a reactor in
operation 24 hours per day. During this year we will make a long theory
of measurements and tests, also in collaboration with CERN researchers.
A report will be made at the end of the 12 months of measurements.”
To be fair, that is what Rossi says.
Rossi says many things. He's very talkative (excluding technical
details), however what he says does not always turn out to be 100%
accurate. CERN might only be indirectly or very loosely involved with
this matter, if even at all, if the quoted text above is to be taken
very literally (for example, former CERN researchers, or researchers who
happen to work or having recently worked at CERN, but that won't
participate in E-Cat tests/research on behalf of CERN).
Some time back Rossi also said, as far as I remember, that agreements
were made with the Bologna University to test his reactor and perform
related research. However at at that time only proposals were made,
according to a reader of Passerini's "22Passi" blog who contacted them
directly.
I would really prefer to read directly from the interested parties about
their involvement, and not only from A.Rossi.
Cheers,
S.A.
