Google is spending $10M/year on this program. They have assembled a group of experts on electrochemistry and calorimetry. They have published an article on this project in the prestigious peer reviewed magazine, Nature.

Google, University of Maryland File Patent based on ‘High Density Electron Clouds’
Thanks to Max Nozin for referencing a new patent application (published February 7th, 2019) filed by Google Inc. and the University of Maryland, College Park on Aug 3, 2017.
The title is “Enhanced Electron Screening Through Plasmon Oscillations”.
Here is the abstract:
Enhanced Coulomb repulsion screening around light element nuclei is achieved by way of utilizing electromagnetic (EM) radiation to induce plasmon oscillations in target structures (e.g., nanoparticles) in a way that produces high density electron clouds in localized regions of the target structures, thereby generating charge density variations around light element atoms located in the localized regions. Each target structure includes an electrically conductive body including light elements (e.g., a metal hydride/deuteride/tritide) that is configured to undergo plasmon oscillations in response to the applied EM radiation. The induced oscillations causes free electrons to converge in the localized region, thereby producing transient high electron charge density levels that enhance Coulomb repulsion screening around light element (e.g., deuterium) atoms located in the localized regions. Various systems capable of implementing enhanced Coulomb repulsion screening are described, and various nanostructure compositions and configurations are disclosed that serve to further enhance fusion reaction rates.

The term ‘high density electron clouds’ is familiar in connection with the E-Cat. Rossi’s recent paper “E-Cat SK and long range particle interactions” starts with this sentence in the abstract: “Some theoretical frameworks that explore the possible formation of dense exotic electron clusters in E-Cat SK are presented.”
The Google/U of Maryland Patent talks about ‘low energy fission’ in the ‘Field of Invention’ section:
The present invention relates specifically to the generation of the light-Nuclei elements (LNEs) Lithium, Beryllium and Boron by the process of low energy fission, breaking down, Carbon, Nitrogen, and Oxygen (CNOs) with the introduction of instability to the CNOs heavy stable isotopes through the application high-frequency radio waves at the NMR frequency, in the presence of a strong magnetic field, of the targeted source material.
Coulomb is a unit of charge
Amps is the flow of charge, coulombs per second
Yup. SAFIRE is fascinating, the latest LENR project to get media attention.
Fusion is the energy source of the future.
And always will be.
Solar energy seems to be working just fine.

He’s back with the cold fusion stuff
I’ll wait for single dose thanks!😀
flow of charge/amps delivered
like an ampmeter?
Haven’t seen E-cat mentioned in a couple years .
Unless we have more coming out than going in we have Bupkis.
I’m trying to stay away from it.
Rossi said himself, to judge him on his own results, “In Mercato Veritas.” He aint got nothing in mercato so he aint got no veritas.
Click "Report Abuse" on your own post and ask a mod to change the title.
Yes, and I will be applying on FR for the same status that those qanonsense folks have, some kind of caucus status, so that you guys will behave on these threads. If you wanna toss around snide remarks about cold fusion then open your own threads. In the meantime, please laissez faire.
Cold Fusion II and III.
Well, to be fair, that’s 93 million miles away, give or take.
We’ll have LFTR’s for a hundred years before there’s an economically competitive fusion reactor operating on Earth. Or Mars. Or the Moon.
“If they make a mistake and all of Silicon Valley gets sucked into a mini black hole, how will the Democrats ever win another election? :)”
Seriously?
They may be in another dimension but they will still manage to vote.
“...that’s 93 million miles away...”
A more than fair point, but it IS a pretty large device.
Works pretty well though...and won’t need a refueling for a while.
Inventation only and he kicks off anyone not on his list.
