Cold Fusion: Japanese Journal
built 648 days ago
The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry and the journal Fusion Technology, which had previously been willing to accept cold fusion papers both had a change in policy and stopped accepting cold fusion papers. Few journals have taken their place. The Japanese Journal of Applied Physics has been a notable exception.

Many pieces of the cold fusion puzzle have come together as a result of information-sharing. Japanese scientists established an experimental process which could be replicated, and George’s colleague was able to convince them to share the results of their experiments. In seeking out cold fusion experts in the US with whom to share this information, Russ George was led to Ronald Brightsen, formerly a senior executive with the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. For the last 30 years Brightsen has worked on developing a new model of the atom that, he believes, explains nuclear fission more completely than does the traditional model. Upon examining George’s information, Brightsen recognized that his new model of the atomic nucleus might ... explain cold fusion.

The Japanese have more finely attuned the state of the art and have made the most impressive and consistent advances in cold fusion research of all countries. Their research interest was spawned by a successful experiment by Akito Takahashi (1992) at Osaka University who reported that he was able to successfully produce an average of 70% more heat than his device consumed in electric power by "cycling" the input power, alternately running the current at high and lower levels for long periods of time. After Takahashi's experiments, Storms at Los Alamos reported that he was able to operate his device for just under 300 hours ... with an output of excess heat. The best research still goes to the NTT (Nippon Telephone and Telegraph Corporation) experiments by Japan's Eiichi Yamaguchi.

An extensive body of data and information on "cold fusion" resulted from the research following the March 1989 announcement. This information appears in scientific journals as well as the technical and popular press. Several books were published on the subject. Many consider the book "Bad Science - The Short Life and Weird Times of Cold Fusion," by Gary Taubes, to provide an accurate, comprehensive account of the history of "cold fusion."

Most physicists treat claims of cold fusion with derision. However, an underground of enthusiasts has continued performing experiments which, they say, demonstrate that deuterium nuclei can fuse to produce tritium and helium isotopes during the electrolysis of heavy water with palladium electrodes. The few outsiders who have tried to repeat the experiments have failed, and claims for cold fusion have not survived peer review to appear in mainstream journals.

[A] recently published academic paper from the Navy's Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center in San Diego throws cold water on skeptics of cold fusion. Appearing in the respected journal Naturwissenschaften, which counts Albert Einstein among its distinguished authors, the article claims that Spawar scientists Stanislaw Szpak and Pamela Mosier-Boss have achieved a low energy nuclear reaction that can be replicated and verified by the scientific community.
