Many scientists have been working on cold fusion since its discovery in 1989, due to the amount of energy that can be produced per reaction compared with chemical reactions. Some have been able to develop rudimentary prototypes that demonstrate energy production and/or reaction products, such as helium. This blog parallels their path by advocating a […]
Phonons In Cold Fusion
This blog attempts to provide a visual description of cathodes in cold fusion systems loaded with deuterium and/or hydrogen, and discusses the possibility that phonons (i.e., thermal vibrations) produce cold fusion reactions in the loaded material. The fact that atoms in materials vibrate has been known since the late 1800s; the characteristics and effects of […]
Cold Fusion Energy Production
An earlier blog discussed the potential benefits of cold fusion as a green energy source and provided links to several small U.S. companies that are attempting to develop systems to utilize cold fusion or low energy nuclear reactions (LENR). The purpose of this blog is to discuss ideas about possible sources of energy from cold […]
What is Cold Fusion?
Most people are familiar with the various types of renewable energy available today, from solar and wind power to biomass and geothermal. These methods are generally considered safe and effective, and several other methods are being investigated by scientists for generating renewable energy. One of these methods is known as cold fusion, as it involves […]
