Cold Fusion Experiment: Major Success Or Complex Hoax? An experimental "cold fusion" device produced this pattern of "triple track" (shown at right), which scientists say is caused by high-energy nuclear particles resulting from a nuclear reaction.Pamela Mosier-Boss, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWAR) A physicist in Italy claims to have demonstrated a new type of power plant that provides safe, cheap and virtually unlimited nuclear power to the world, without fossil fuels or radiation concerns. The only hitch: Scientists say the method -- cold fusion -- is patently impossible. Andrea Rossi doesn't seem to care. “With low energy, it's possible to give a heater a certain amount of energy and to get from the same heater a superior amount of energy,” Rossi explained. Rossi's claims have confounded the scientific community, many of whom have either dismissed the demonstration outright or have questioned whether the E-Cat really works. Koomey explained that cold fusion defies the laws of thermodynamics.
A Week of E-Cat News Flurry It's amazing how much E-Cat cold fusion news is accumulated in just one week, with no less than twelve news sites dedicated to covering it, thus creating these ~37 stories, including news on customers, products, competitor progress, pending scientific validations, and history. Plus compilation showing 1st customer = US Military. By Sterling D. There has been a lot of miscellaneous news items over the past few days. It reminds me of when I'm making hot cereal in the morning. So, without further ado, here are some of the recent news items posted from around the web. Following this compilation is a list of hints about who the first customer is.
