Article in Mitsubishi Estate magazine about Clean Planet:
QuoteIwamura: "Currently, the phenomenon can be reproduced under certain conditions, but if it is to be put into practical use, it must be possible to control it so that it can be reproduced under various circumstances. It must be able to be used in hot and cold places. However, if necessary, it may be necessary to make the device compact. In any case, the basic research is almost over, and the only thing left to do is control the phenomenon. It is just one step before practical use. "
Interesting and promising remark by Iwamura.
The fact that they are able to reproduce is an important milestone to receive further funding.Hopefully their research is supported by interested young students soon.
I recall applying so called "Taguchi methods"to determine optimum performance of complex processes with many (independant) parameters during my own research career. Now, with Artificial Intelligence methods, there should be enough challenges for students to support this kind of research.

Progress towards 'cold fusion,' where nuclear fusion can occur at close to room temperatures, has now been at a standstill for decades. However, an increasing number of studies are now proposing that the reaction could be triggered more easily through a mechanism involving muons -- elementary particles with the same charge as electrons, but with around 200 times their mass. Through a study published in EPJ D, researchers led by Francisco Caruso at the Brazilian Centre for Physical Research have shown theoretically how this process would unfold within 2D systems, without any need for approximations.

Another group similarly does computation on muon - nucleus interaction in 2D, but they stick with the 1/r potential instead of the log(r) potential (as used in Alan's link). The result: Not encouraging for muon catalyzed fusion. Lesson: So much depends on the model! https://www.sciencedirect.com/…abs/pii/S1386947720315897

Neutron emission from fracturing of granite blocks: An experimental revisitation
-
Although the probability of the tunneling through a Coulomb barrier is too small in order to speculate about a possibility of the “cold fusion” and its practical usage, but the problem is still actual and is of interest from the general theoretical point of view. In particular, we will consider the dependence of the transparency of a screened Coulomb barrier on such natural and easily changeable physical parameter, as the temperature varies not within the range of millions of degrees, but from 0 K to the crystal melting point (for definiteness, we take 2000 K).

When they started, as I remember, the sphere was smaller and no lithium. Now it seems that size does matter and they are adding magnetic confinement. The hot mixture of lead and lithium must look mesmerising.
I saw scale model of the reactor in the Canadian museum of tech. few years back. That is when they haven't achieved anything except attracting investors and enlarging hardware.

Imposters hijack journal’s peer review process to publish substandard papers
Scammers infiltrated a chemistry journal’s peer-review system in order to accept and publish low quality papers. The sophisticated operation highlights the lengths to which some dishonest parties will go to undermine the review process.
The Journal of Nanoparticle Research announced that 19 articles were accepted, with some published online, after it fell victim to an attack by ‘an organised rogue editor network’.
Fraudsters impersonating respected academics approached the journal, which is published by Springer Nature, to suggest an idea for a themed issue on ‘the role of nanotechnology and internet of things in healthcare’. The imposters generated fake email addresses that mimicked those of real universities to add credibility to their claims.
‘They contacted us, not just with a fake email address, but also fake domains that were very similar to one university in Germany and one in the UK,’ says Humboldt University chemist Nicola Pinna, who serves as the journal’s executive editor. ‘So we didn’t notice it immediately.’
Pinna notes that the proposal for the special collection was ‘sound and quite detailed’ and even included suggestions for researchers working in appropriate fields, who might wish to submit papers. ‘Everything was carefully done,’ he says.
Once the themed issue was commissioned, the scammers were invited to handle papers and assign referees for them. This enabled them to accept 19 papers that would otherwise have been rejected by the journal for failing to meet its scope and standards for publication.
‘At the beginning it was very quiet, and then we saw a lot of accepted papers popping up. And when we tried immediately to look at quality of these papers, it turned out it was bad,’ says Pinna. ‘At the same time we got contact from the research integrity group from Springer, telling us that there is a problem with this special issue because of suspicious activity and suspicious emails from used referees and so on. So then we started to investigate.’
However, when the journal’s editorial team began investigating the scam, it found that the fake email accounts had expired. ‘There was no way we could even try to contact them back via these domain names – they don’t exist anymore,’ says Pinna.

Several presentations have now been uploaded to the upcoming LENR Workshop in Memory of Dr. M. Srinivasan. You don't have to wait for the Workshop. Some of the slide presentations have a voice-over so you get the whole presentation. Mine does, and so does Frank Gordon's, which is interesting. You can download the presentations and hear them now.
(Maybe they all have voice-overs? I have not downloaded them all.)

Using Palladium Nanocubes on ZnO Nanostructures in Hydrogen Gas Sensor for Fast Response and Recovery Time
https://www.ingentaconnect.com…0000021/00000004/art00046
Quote
We developed a novel sensor structure by synthesizing Pd nanocubes (NCs) decorated on ZnO nanostructures (NSs) applied to resistive-type H2 gas sensor with micro-length in sensing channel. The ZnO NSs were selectively grown between micro-size finger-like interdigital electrodes through microelectromechanical technology. The novel H2 sensor structure with the sensing channel was reduced to micro-size by this proposed method to obtain a sensor with fast response/recovery time. The as-prepared structure exhibited robust sensing performance with a response of 11% at optimal temperature of 150 °C, good linearity, and fast response/recovery time within 10 s. The speed of chemisorption through the diffusion pathway in Pd NCs combined with micro-length in sensing channel in sensor showed fast response and recovery times of 9 and 15 s, respectively, toward 10,000 ppm (1%) H2 at 150 °C. The result showed approximate linearity response in H2 concentration range of 5÷10,000 ppm and a large operating temperature range from room temperature to 200 °C. -
