On April 15th, an update has been made to the Rossi patent application at the European Patent Office - which was mentioned previously here.
https://register.epo.org/espacenet/application?documentId=EUIP5C400118284&nu mber=EP08873805&lng=en&npl=false As you can see, Nickel-62 is featured in Claim One as the active species for the reaction, essentially making this patent very specific. The curious factoid ... or "irony" is that Ni-62 (NOT an iron isotope) - is a singularity in a way, being the isotope with the highest binding energy per nucleon of all known nuclides (~8.8 MeV per) and yet here it is being identified as active for the anomalous energy Rossi claims to have found with hydrogen. Jones On the one hand, if there is true gain in this device primarily due to properties of this isotope - being a singularity could be an important clue. OTOH it is most surprising that the physical property for which it derives its uniqueness - is the opposite of what one logically expects in the situation.
