October 1 [reporting Thursday, September 29] - “Qun Zhong-Tian, the organizer of the conference, greeted us by informing us that a government program was in place with four Chinese universities to study cold fusion.
Peter Hagelstein, MIT in the United States has a historical reminder of all that was done in the early years of the cold fusion. He showed how the already positive results were convincing to prove the reality of the phenomenon. The excess heat were shown with both palladium and heavy water, but with the nickel and ordinary water.
Chen Ping, the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics in China, studied the different metals and alloys for storing hyrogène. Although this topic is not directly of cold fusion, it is still interesting because the hydrogen charging rate is a critical factor in cold fusion.
Melvin Miles from the University of LaVerne in the United States developed the mathematical model allowing Martin Fleischmann to have an accuracy of 0.1% with temperature measurements to a thousandth of a degree, and an understanding of the heat mode dynamic. The calorimeter developed by Fleischmann and Pons was of great simplicity and excellent accuracy, but very few people understood his qualities.
Yasuhiro Iwamura of Tohoku University in Japan has presented four of his team research directions:
1- Excess heat in nano structured materials Pd-Ni obtained by plasma discharge on substrates of nickel and palladium in hydrogen and deuterium. The excess heat is reproducible, albeit not of the same magnitude.
2- Experiments with nano particles of alloy Ni-Pd surrounded ZrO 2 into hydrogen and deuterium.
3- The production of praseodymium scattering on deuterium alternating layers Pd / CaO covered in final layer of cesium. The techniques used to detect the presence of praseodymium are multiple: XPS, ICP-MS, TOF-SIMS SIMS and XRF.
4- transmutations of experiences in order to transmute radioactive nuclear waste.
Hang Zhang, laboratory Quiran, Xi An to ShanXi China studied more nickel hydrogen system and LiAlH 4. He improved the work done previously by Jiang Songsheng who had had problems with the reliability of thermocouples. Its heating system of the reactor making the outside through an oven, when there is no abnormal heat, the cell is cooler than the furnace. From 800 ° C, there is a temperature inversion indicating excess heat. The estimate is 14 Watts with a heating power of 750 watts, or 2% excess.
George Miley, from the University of Illinois at Chicago has developed the results of his work with electrolysis cathode formed multilayer palladium / nickel, and the results with nano palladium particles coated with ZrO 2. He calculated in particular that the binding energy of the atomic defects was 0.65eV. He wants to create defects in the crystal lattice which will be able to accommodate the hydrogen atoms.
Michael Halem, LENR to invest, a company that has invested in the Brillouin company decided to see for himself if the system worked as advertised. The system Brillouin he studied consists of a heated nickel tube having follow a particular processing used to circulate hydrogen. A flow of argon to the outside of the tube in an enclosure containing the tube serves to cool and measure the amount of heat produced. In the system, they also rajoutent an RF signal. Her measurements yielded an excess of 20 watts for a power of 80 Watts. He is personally reassured 90% that its measures are just.
Jian Tian Clean Energy Technology Laboratory of the University of Changchun in China has made a historic reminder of what happened with the nickel hydrogen system. From the beginning of cold fusion, electrolytic nickel system with K 2 CO 3 was positive and reproducible results.
Song Ding Huan of Xiamen University in China developed a theory suggesting that stimulation of surface phonons can contribute to cold fusion reaction.

ICCF-20 Second day of the Satellite Symposium in Xiamen, China - Report by Dr. Jean Paul Biberian
October 1 [reporting Friday, September 30] - "David Nagel, of George Washington University in the US has developed efforts in his university to work on cold fusion. They focused on analyzing means in the experiments, for example by recording the sounds inside of a hollow cathode, by Fourier analysis of the electrolysis current variations, infrared measurements , etc ...
Peter Hagelstein, to MIT in the United States recalled that he, energy nuclear reaction between deuterium nuclei were removed by phonons network. For this he had shown the potential coupling between SD passage to He-4 by issuing a large amount of low energy phonons. Moreover, the work of Karabut and Vysotskii showing the production of X-rays when the vibrations are produced on a metal led him to prepare an experiment where the Ta-181 must excite the W-181 will issue X-rays. The experiment is being prepared.
Wu-Shou Zhang of the Institute of the Academy of Sciences Chemistry Beijing in China built a Seebeck calorimeter, in which he experimented with electrodes in acid palladium in D 2 SO 4. He showed excess heat has low loading rate. Moreover, he found the money on the palladium electrode. In the calorimeter, he made a similar experience to that of Rossi and observed a very low excess heat to 1160 ° C 0.45%.
Jean-François Geneste group of Airbus in Toulouse quoted a sentence of French Nobel Prize: "It is the asymmetry that creates the phenomenon." He developed a non-Archimedean geometry that helps explain why symmetry is not perceived in the same way for one who is in the symmetrical object and an outside observer. Perfection is not symmetry, but the asymmetry. That is why if the crystal is perfect cold fusion does not occur, you have impurities, defects.
Daniel Szumski, independent researcher of Davis in California, developed his theory to produce a cathode which works to give energy. It proposes to add certain metal isotopes to activate the electrode.
Farong Wan of the University of Science and Technology Beijing showed that irradiating aluminum foil with deuterium ions, creating bubbles. Under the effect of 200kV electron bombardment of a transmission microscope was locally melted aluminum, indicating an abnormal phenomenon occurred.
John Paul Biberian Aix-Marseille University reviewed the six experiments in progress: experiments with nickel powders, diffusion of deuterium through the wall of a palladium tube, the excitement of carbon powders with micro- oven, plasma electrolysis high voltage and high current, and the replication of the ICARUS experiment 9 Stanley Pons of the permanent boil. Finally I showed last very promising results obtained with solid electrolytes that produced up to 45% more energy.
Florian Metzler MIT in the United States showed with Peter Hagelstein the development of an apparatus for creating vibrations of various frequencies to generate X-rays. This is the counterpart to the Hagelstein theory mentioned above.
Chang-Lin Liang from Beijing University Tsighua showed excess heat discharge experiments with thin film deposition of palladium on the walls of the glass container.
Melvin Miles from the University of LaVerne in the US has shown a thermodynamic analysis and kinetic parameters of the reaction D + D to He-4. He found a delta G 23 000 GJ / Mole, and entropy of 12.3 J / Mole. And the reaction is zero order.

ICCF-20 - 20th Int. Conf. Cond. Matter Nuclear Science
Monday, October 3, The first day of ICCF20 in Sendai, Japan- Report by Dr. Jean Paul Biberian
More than 130 people came from 17 different countries.
Jirohta Kasagi, presented the conference. He recalled that since the beginning, it was the fourth time that Japan hosted a conference ICCF. The last time it was in Yokohama 11 years ago. He recalled that since that time the research was oriented nano particles with deuterium. There was also the development of torque nickel / hydrogen, because of Rossi's work, whatever one thinks of its results.
Ms. Emiko Okuyama, Mayor of Sendai fully supported the conference fully supporting Cold Fusion, and the work being done in Sendai.
Mike McKubre, could not come physically to the conference for health reasons that prevented him from flying, sent a video, and his speech was read by one of his colleagues. His presentation was focused on the past, present and future. He recalled that from the beginning, tritium was detected. First it was John Bockris and Ed Storms and Mahadeva Srinavasan. This proves that the reaction was nuclear. It was also noticed that when there is tritium, there is no energy release. SRI then showed the helium-3 forming with the dual cathode Arata. Moreover, as soon ICCF2, Mel Miles showed the correlation between helium-4 formation and excess energy. At the theoretical level, the Nobel laureate Julian and Julian Shwinger Teller, father of the atomic bomb have supported the Cold Fusion. Mike McKubre proposed that ICCF21 to be held in North America, three or four experiments are proposed that could be carried by several laboratories with a special session during ICCF21.
Takao Kashiwagi, professor and director of Advanced Energy Systems for Sustainability, detailed the current situation of electric power in Japan, and the forecast for 2030. For now the Cold Fusion is not planned, but according him, this could soon change in light of the results obtained.
Akito Takahashi Technova the company developed the results obtained with palladium nano particles in the meso porous silica materials. They got the excess energy as well with the deuterium-hydrogen. He also showed that the absorption of energy is greater than that of desorption. The loading of deuterium is very high, more than three. Of excess heat between 200 and 300 ° C was produced over several days. According to him, the reaction occurs when the deuterium moved into and out of the surface.
Francesco Celani INFN in Italy continued to work with the son of constantan Cu (55%) Ni (44%) Mo (1%). He noted that the reaction occurs in non-equilibrium conditions. Vacuum heat destroys the material must be heated in hydrogen or deuterium to avoid sintering. It is important that the heating and cooling will make very quickly. The glass is also important, alumina does not. To improve performance, it is up to 41 knots on the constantan wire. In this case, excess heat of 25 W was measured.
Bob Greenyer of MLF, detailed the work they have done to try to verify the experience of Lugano Rossi. Through their actions with the Glow Stick they were able to show that the measures Lugano were wrong. The COP is certainly much lower than that which was announced. At best, it would be a COP of 1.13. It seems the optimum for the excess heat occurs in the range 305-315 ° C.
Fran Tanzella SRI in Mountain View United States detailed the results of the audit experiences of the Brillouin society. It seems that the reaction proceeds by an electron capture with formation of a neutron (p + e = n). This is possible due to electrical impulses. An excess of 100% was observed. The pulses are of several hundred volts, over periods of a few hundred nanoseconds. The best COP is detected at 300 ° C.
Michael Halem, of LENR Invest presented the same conference in China.
Takahiko Itoh of Tohoku University in Sendai Mizuno has replicated the experience of training palladium nano materials made of nickel and plasma discharge. The best results were obtained at 300 ° C.
Jacques Dufour of Paris has a personal theory in which a hydrogen atom in the form of dipole is entrapped within an iron atom. This is the pico chemistry. This reaction is 1000 times more energy than a chemical reaction. He did an installation in an oven with two symmetrical cells of which serves as a reference. It places a mixture containing iron, sodium and SiC. The reaction occurs at 1075 ° C with an excess of 1 Watt. Furthermore an analysis by mass spectrometry shows a peak at mass 55 which corresponds to the mass of the iron 54 with a hydrogen dipole in its electron cloud.
Olafson Stein of the University of Iceland has developed the role of Rydberg atoms in excess heat. Rydberg atoms under the effect of laser beam approaching to 2 or 3 microns. The radiation measurements observed suggest production Kaons, Pawns of muons and electrons.
George Miley of the University of Illinois introduced the same conference in China.
Mitchell Swartz Nanotech in the United States whose presentation was made by Peter Hagelstein has done an outstanding job on Raman spectroscopy on Nanors giving excess energy. As when sending a laser beam on a surface, the beam returns to reflection without loss of energy, but also a loss of energy or an energy gain due to the loss or gain of a phonon. Interestingly, when there is no power, there is the peak of loss of energy, but when there is excess energy, there is also a peak corresponding to the gain of energy with absorption of a phonon.
Sangho Bok Clean Planet have developed a new method of temperature measurement using fluorescent film temperature sensitive. The idea is to use these fluorescent dyes such as sensor locations where the heat is generated on an electrode. This will have a spatial resolution of 40 nm, which depends on the resolution of the microscope used. The first results are encouraging and the temperature range can be changed by changing the composition of the fluorescent dye.
