Ed has asked me to point out that his other book, also now only available in Kindle format (The Science of LENR) needs to be ordered from World Scientific

Hi Mum is very old, but still a big reader. Just that she has a bad memory these days.

I suppose this thread will crank along now along in a predictably lachrymose fashion. In fact here is a prediction ... I predict that we will soon we see posts here whose logic is that because LENR faces a lack of acceptance from mainstream science it must therefore be true! But that reasoning is fallacious.
If you wish to make a mountain out of a molehill, then do so. However, please don't make it everybody else's fault.

A 10 minute Video published in 2011 but very relevant to the problem of opposition to scientific progress that is discussed in here from time to time. Daniel Shechtman overcame huge scepticism about the existence of quasicrystals to win the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Islamic artisans constructed similar Exotic Nonrepeating Patterns 500 Years before modern mathematicians re-created them. From 6 minutes on he talks about the opposition to his discovery, and about its affects on his life and career. Thanks to member 'Director' for the tip-off.

Members will I am sure noticed that Dr. Edmund Storms has posted some observations on Mizuno's experiment in our forum based on his huge experience in the cold fusion field. It occurs to me that Ed's book on the 'nuts and bolts' of LENR might be of interest. Now only available as a $22 Kindle book, (or an $800 paperback!) it covers a lot of ground on the topic.
One reviewer who bought the Amazon Kindle version said:- 'Not a light read, but a thorough examination of the experimental evidence for a new form of energy. It is not hot fusion at a lower temperature, but a different reaction altogether.
Storms then goes on to look at existing explanations and goes on to expand his own possible explanation. If you seriously want to know more about this subject, settle down to read this, with pencil and paper to make notes.'In the book’s Foreword, Dr. Michael McKubre, (Formerly) Director, Energy Research Lab at SRI International, writes: “The opportunity to learn directly from the most knowledgeable person in arguably the most important emerging field, and to share his concise and well considered condensation of a difficult and scattered literature, are not the only or primary reasons to comprehend The Explanation of Low Energy Nuclear Reaction. Laid out clearly and gently in Chapter 5, ‘Description of an Explanation,’ is the first physical science based description of a potential explanation for cold fusion.”

,... sealing is done with red loctite suggested by french CEA
Unless you are thinking of something else, this is better than any loctite compound. The high-temperature ones fail at 250+

There are sapphire windows that go up to 450 C.
The limit here is not the Sapphire, but the glass-to-metal seals. You should look for a Kovar sealed port.

The 2 posts above have been moved from the Mizuno thread-
-
2 posts moved to clearance (sadly). This is not a rossi thread, nor a psychiatrists couch.

'Loose talk' perhaps?
-
Not sure if i understand you correctly, but who (besides the IH affiliates) left according to you?
It doesn't really matter- nobody has said a word, beyond Rossi's old gardener. Who may in actual fact be a hoaxer.

suggested price was US$ 400 plus shipping per sheet
I that 'per sheet' or for a set of 3?

Thanks to our member SERGEI for giving us a link to this journal- papers by Vysotsky, Parkhomov in others. However I have picked out a paper on a theme developed here by Ed Lewis on the health effects of strange radiation- a particular interest of his.
A.L. Shishkin, V.Yu. Tatur. Evaluation of the effects of strange radiation on biological objects.

Title: Evaluation of the effects of strange radiation on biological objects.

On the basis of experimental data, an attempt was made to estimate the level of the damaging effects of strange radiation. Attention is drawn to the fact that in the human body this agent will cause damage to “loose” organs, such as the lungs, alimentary canal, joints, bone cavities, red blood cells, white blood cells, as well as affect the surface of the eyes, mouth, nose and ears. It is shown that this exposure with a high degree of probability leads to the destruction of red blood cells, and damage to leukocytes can lead to leukemia.

Cheapest D2O in the USA is from Cambridge Isotopes. I have smaller amounts of high-putiry D2O from Goss UK for $100 per 100 grams shipped anywhere.

I think it is time I reminded certain posters in this thread (and we know who that is) to 'keep it grown up' and not to descend into making what apeear to me to be childish and/or petulant comments. The debate itself is both useful and interesting, but unless you are all very careful it will soon get 'old' and we will close the thread.

It is one of the mysteries here how Rossi obtains apparent loyalty from any of his co-workers.
And continued silence after they leave, which moves the correct adjective from 'apparent' to 'self-evident'.

Ni mesh: hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
I just have one piece left now- all the rest has gone. If I can find people who want a total of 10 pieces ~I'll order some more- by the time I pay freight to me and to users and what anmounts to about 25% duty the minimum order of 20 pieces works out pretty expensive.

This is another picture from the same source- and this definitely looks like a different rod. And it also shows the supplier Alfa Aesar, which is the most useful thing.
