Rossi would never give the nickel catalyst to anyone if the “secret” could be chemically deduced from the nickel powder.
The “secret” is not associated with the nickel powder. Rossi said: *“I understand you get fun, we don’t: we work on this in a factory totally dedicated to this, and we are pretty good at, as you soon will see. In our team there are Nuclear Physics University professors, with experience from CERN of Geneva, INFN, etc., etc.”* Workers at CERN are expert at producing hydrogen IONs (protons) to fill the CERN acceleration ring. Producing ionized hydrogen (plasma) and accelerating these protons are what atoms smashers are all about. Rossi ionizes hydrogen using current from the PLCs in his control box. Varying the voltage of this current to his internal heater is how he controls his reactor.
