Horace's comments indicate that a lot of overlapping R&D from many sources can be relevant to LENR, even without Arata's work being specifically featured.
BTW - Takahashi made a presentation on his Arata replications at the American Chemical Society meeting in Anaheim CA recently (last month). The paper is not yet up on the LENR-CANR site, but it probably will be - since others are there . but anyway he stated explicitly in his presentation that Brian Ahern's nanopowders outperformed anything they had tested. These are based on oxidized glassy metals, as in the Arata formula. I doubt seriously that Rossi did this unless it too was inadvertent - which means that his results may be less than optimum - if that is remotely possible. . not to mention that Rossi may indeed be the luckiest man on earth . or else he is the real John Titor, from the year 2036 :-) Na-Nu Na-Nu and Warm Regards, JB From: Horace Heffner Subject: Re: [Vo]:Quality control in cold fusion.
