The Theorist’s Role in Unravelling Cold Fusion Physics #

Daniel S Szumski 1 1 Independent scholar, Davis, CA USA E-mail: Danszumski@gmail.com

If we are to unravel the cold fusion process, we need to comprehend it at a more fundamental level than calorimetry. Consider the possibility that cold fusion might consist of the three sub-processes:

Process Rank------------------ Process Description ------------------- Reference

Tertiary process --------------Excess heat generation---------------- Fleischmann and Pons

Secondary process -----------Nuclear transmutations ---------------Mizuno and Miley

Primary process ---------------Energy accumulation & storage ----LANP model

In this presentation, we develop a methodology for measuring the secondary process, and in particular observing the time history of individual nuclear transmutation events.

The experimental hypothesis is: LANP theory predicts the order in which specific nuclear transmutations occur in a thin film nickel electrode.

The experiment is designed to also answer four questions: • Exactly what types of nuclear transmutations are occuring? Fusion? Fission? Decay? • How are protons and neutrons implicated? Do they participate? Do they catalyse? • Do observed transmutation events support excess heat measurements? • Are both fusion and fission occuring? Can we isolate single transmutation events?

The theorist’s view of nuclear transmutations differs from the experimentalist’s. While the experimentalist focuses on measuring initial electrode composition and the transmutation end products, the theorist is more interested in the story of how the process develops from natural laws. In this paper we develop an experiment that is designed to observe an isolated nuclear transmutation.

The Least Action Nuclear Process theory is used to develop an experimental hypotheses that specifies the time sequence of initial nuclear transmutations in a thin film nickel electrode made from 99.999% fine Ni-58 and a single, mono-isotopic element impurity such as 99.999% fine Sc-45.

The theory provides energetic calculations for the initial fusion transmutation, followed by a decay process along the path having the smallest energy change. The experiment is designed to measure the isotope composition of a thin film (Ni coated glass beads) electrode at intervals determined in pre-experiment trials. The measurements are then compared to LANP model calculations that were prepared during the experiment’s planning phase.

If someone says stop, then stop. Do not enter onto a thread on a topic you don’t like just to disrupt, rattle cages, poke sticks, insult the regulars, or engage in trolling activities, etc. ~Jim Robinson


This topic has a following, people who wish to learn and discuss the materials presented.

Please refrain from posting anything that doesn’t legitimately address the issue.

Something is going on in this segment of science. There are a considerable number of research groups studying the matter. -Sidebar Moderator


The issue isn’t whether we allow skepticism, it is whether we allow hyperskeptics and skeptopaths to ruin the scientific dialog. Civil discussion of the involved science is desired.
