Cold fusion researcher Yoshiaki Arata died on June 5, 2018, at age 94. See:

Hopefully he was aware before passing, that at ICCF 21, Beiting from: "The Aerospace Corporation", announced he had replicated his results.

Many who knew and worked with Arata San will shed no tears at his passing, save for the secrets he now guards in his grave. He was a brilliant man with a ruthless ego. I learned a great deal from him working cheek to jowl in his lab in Osaka but it took quite some time for the narrow scars on my back to fade away. The field of cold fusion/lenr has never been any different from most of science, it is an environment populated by men and only superficially does not appear like a Roman colesseum. My sympathies to Yuku who was a fine and gracious host and lady.

Thanks Russ
I always wondered why nothing much has happened with Arata's stuff...perhaps now that he is dead the spirit of Faraday can do something with it.. in London?

Just recently his observations were confirmed: Lattice Energy LLC - LENR experiment conducted by The Aerospace Corporation repeated Japanese NEDO projects reported excess heat results - June 6 2018
20 grams of Ni:Pd nanoparticles has been embedded in μ-sized ZrO2 particles. After conditioning the cells, both were heated to near 300°C in the hydrogen atmosphere for a period of 1000 hours (40 days). During this period, the test cell registered 7.5% more power (approximately 1 W) than the input power. The control cell measured approximately 0.05 W of excess power. The error in the excess power measurement was ± 0.05 W. Assuming that the active material is the 5.44 g of Ni+Pd yields a specific energy of 635 MJ/kg. For comparison, the highest specific energy of a hydrocarbon fuel (methane) is 55.5 MJ/kg. The highest chemical specific energy listed (see Energy Density topic in Wikipedia) is 142 MJ/kg for hydrogen compressed to 700 bar. Based on these results, it is unlikely that the source of heat energy was chemical in origin.

Zephir_AWT : LL is just selling others work. He never had something nor has he ever understood anything. This is just a sales pitch of a widely overestimated poster.
