WHAT IS COLD FUSION (LENR, CANR, CMNS)?
Definition is still ambiguous, but every researcher has own view according to his working hypothesis. My view is summarized in Slide No.6 of presentation Main Scenarios of CMN-Effects, February 2005. – A. Takahashi ********* There may be more than one fundamental energy-producing phenomenon involved, so any questions about the “one true nature” of CF will devolve into Swiftian lilliputan battles. – B. Beaty ********* An unproven assertion that several fusion reactions can take place at about room temperatures, without muons present. – D. Britz ********* Cold fusion is a nuclear reaction between two deuterium nuclei with the following characteristics: – It takes place in a dense medium and not in vacuum. Plasmas can be considered as “vacuum” if compared with a number of atoms as high as the Avogadro’s number typical of the condensed matter. – It doesn’t need a critical parameter such as the product of the density by the temperature. In hot plasma the huge repulsive coulomb barrier betwe
