RIP Dr Hiroo Numata

Spotted by JedRothwell

I am sorry to report that Dr, Hiroo Numata died 0n October the 2nd 2021, Doctor of Engineering and affiliated with Tokyo Tech for most jf not all his career.

He presented at ICCF-12 and also at a half-dozen Japanese cold fusion society conferences. The formidable list of his publications- with links is below.

A 'Who Was Who' in fact. Since the history is long, and the information not always easy to find I (and Shane) would be most appreciative if anyone would care to help by posting suggestions for entries into this thread. Shane and I will create…
