-----Original Message----- From: [email protected] I am totally perplexed by how many reports of anomalous emission of neutrons and/or high energy e-m radiation (with both Pd+D2 and Ni+H2) can go unnoticed, or disproved by university physics labs.
Are there credible reports of significant neutrons with protium? Anything over 1000/sec would be significant. Farnsworth Fusors can get to 10k/sec. and sonofusion goes higher - but these go largely un-noticed too. Many Fusors have been built by teenagers, but the process is closer to hot fusion than to LENR. Often it is called "warm". AFAIK significant neutrons simply do not happen with Ni-H. Prelas used deuterium only. The real travesty here is that Prelas was forced to stop the work when his then-supervisor cut off his funding in 1991 despite the incredible results, and he seems to have been way ahead of anyone else. They reached a million neutrons a second - wow! That is the highest number I remember ever seeing for Pd-D. There are reports of higher with sonofusion. Of course, this was a neutron burst, not steady state, and even the burst is a long way from breakeven. With a Fusor, Farnsworth said 10^10 neutrons/sec would be breakeven IIRC. Essentially 21 years of important R&D was delayed. Isn't this a bit like "justice delayed is justice denied?"
