Mary, Brillouin was tested by SRI, McKubre and tanzella.
It is clear that McKubre is competent, because when Garwin and Lewis tried to put their nose in their lab, a rare even when skeptic go to the lab far from TV and armchairs, they found nothing to criticize except "it is not possible" wildcard answer.So you accuse McKubre, Tanzella, Godes, of fraud in front of US congress ?
Sure girls have balls. -
Note that the parer of Stepanov cited in the article have been previously translated in English

on Slice of MIT Alumni blog, Jill Hetch Maxell compare the difficulty to tell you support nuclear energy, citing Sam Briton
“The challenge of coming out as LGBT sure gives you a lot of practice for coming out for nuclear energy.”.Carl Page, known for his participation to ICCF19 and a recent article on EDGE.ORG, comment this article adding that coming out on LENr is even more controversial, giving among other insightful sentences, this quote:
"However Science is not a consensus sport. It is a dictatorship. All humans can be wrong. Only nature’s vote counts. And nature speaks regularly."[news=100,meta][/news]

Teraflop was the dream of my generation (first to simulate nuclear test).
Today it is petaflop that raise expectations, and budgets in Grid computing. -
-
In my worst nightmare I dream Orbo is a conspiracy by skeptics to make people still dubious on LENr for few more years...
But reality is probably much simpler.
Anyway until you have tested, you never know, but you can bet. I won't bet a cent, but I won't bet my payroll against either.
Another mystery is what is their plan to avoid the unavoidable conclusion. -

Paul Mahler found this document:
"FOCAL THEME : BUILDING AN ECOLOGICALLY SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY" (Social Science Abstracts - Volume XXXVII, 2013 )
by INDIAN ACADEMY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES INDIA
it is the papers of the "XXXVII Indian Social Science Congress"http://www.amu.ac.in/newevent/event/9861.pdf
and page 61-63 there is an article by Mahadeva Srinivasan on LENRQuote
...
The ongoing "Silent Revolution in Nuclear Science" is thus on the verge of making available to mankind, a new and practical “Third Route to Nuclear Energy”, through clean and portable nuclear power packs. The most remarkable aspect of these LENR reactors is that they are “clean” in the sense there is very little nuclear radiation emitted and no radioactivity is involved. Fuel is plentifully available Nickel and ordinary Hydrogen gas. Although the actual integration of such heat sources to an electricity generator has not yet been demonstrated in public, it is only a matter of time before that happens, since the technology for converting heat into electricity is readily available. (Rossi is already working on coupling his 10KWth E-cat heater unit to a Thermoelectric generator module to obtain a few KWe home power pack which can run nonstop without refueling for upto 6 months.) Well before 2020 private industry worldwide is expected to mass manufacture and market portable LENR “nuclear gensets” in the 1 to 300 KWe range. LENR power packs have all the advantages of Nuclear and Solar power, without their respective disadvantages. The following is a sample of the many websites which have cropped up during the last couple of years, to document the progress of the Ni-H reactor technology : www.ecat.com, www.ecatreport.com; www.e-catsite.com, www.e-catworld.com, www.andrearossiecat.com, www.lenrnews.eu, www.ecatfusion.com, www.nickelpower.org, www.lenrproof.com, www.lenrftw.net.Mainstream Physicists find it very difficult to believe that it is possible to have nuclear energy without the accompanying hazardous nuclear radiation and so they have continued to decry and boycott this development. Historically there are many instances when new discoveries were at first intensely opposed and criticized, including the invention of the airplane by the Wright brothers who were just a pair of bicycle mechanics with no college degrees! The talk will present an overview of this breakthrough development and discuss its implications to both the Indian and Global Energy scenarios.

As I remember reading article (lost them) the period of disbelief and drawer storage was in the 1920-30s about PN parasitic junctions (in Germanium).
*Hard to find data on that period as officially nothing happened.there was one patent for a FET transistor in the 30s, and it have been replicated painfully recently while most believed it was not working. il lost the details...

Peter Gluck have found a meetup in Ottawa.
http://www.meetup.com/en-US/Ottawa-LENR-Meetup/Quote
This meetup is for people interested in the subject of LENR (cold fusion) to get together to discuss results in the field. No metaphysical or pseudoscientific discussions; this meetup is for productive conversations about real science in the field of LENR.Upcoming:
University of Ottawa
800 King Edward Drive, Ottawa, ON (map)Sadly it seems a bit abandoned at birth, who want to adopt it?

US legal culture is different from French one, and they exploit common knowledge on Legal problems.
Best it to have a degree in law but this is harder.Anyway my point is that the F9 game is clearly linked to a NDA.
-
F9 is just a legal umbrella. he plays the NDA game. He cannot even say it have worked.
Just watch attorney TV series, and you will understand his game.Nobody dishonest will care if the E-cat produce COP>6 for 300/400 days, it will have failed.
Just watch Darden, Woodford, Blackrock...

Until now, there is no artifact that explain the finding of F&P, nor of most serious LENr experiments.
It is only disproven arguments, of Lewis and Hansen, which at least were published so they could be proposed to competent electrochemist who like Wilson said it was wrong.
Others claims like Morrison and Shanahan are full of basic errors .Rest is conspiracy, innuendo, insults, racism, ignorance, self-reference (like when Baron of Munchausen pull on his own boots to fly).
-
This patent is really not like what we usually see in LENR.
I don't understand the final application, but why not.About "Open", note that to allow Open Patent, Open IP, Free/Open Software, it is essential to protect it with IP (patent, copyright, Trade Secret), so you can share it with who it want , typically anyone who play the rules, and more than that to block pirates to hijack the freedom by derivating the subject of the open license.
You can only enforce a free license if you own the subject.
-
To be sincere, I don't follow Rossi says so much. It may be interesting as "hypothesis" , but most he says is not proven, and sometimes either wrong or simply misunderstood...
However I follow what is around, and this is amazing, far from a scam artist theory.Saying Rossi is a human being, with ego, is basic psychology. You cannot say Scientific Community get caught in groupthink by a handful of big ego and a crowd of conservative followers, without accepting there is hysterical priests of new reality, strong ego, ambitious entrepreneurs, would-be "heroes of the world", stubborn realists...
The world is symmetrical, and the human factors which ruined Cold Fusion beginnings have also supported it's development in the underground and now in Fortune and FT.

Raising some questions, more than answers.
EDIT: it seems Antoine is many level above me on the subject so my question may just be naive and redundant.Does the color change with emissivity ?
If it is flat in the visible range, only effect of emissivity is to change the dissipation, thus the temperature indirectly. however given a temperature, flat emissivity should only change emitted power? is it?Axil raise the point that nickel was melted. Maybe a slow process can do that (slow viscosity?) ?
Note also that high temperature in the reactor may be compatible with modest temperature outside, and outside is responsible of the emissivity induced part of radiation.
However transparency may allow internal blackbody, eventually hotter, to radiate some more.add to that that fins and surface roughness should reduce effective reflectivity, thus increase emissivity, and it is very complex...
Anyway color as propose antoine may give a hint on the temperature of the core, which is probably not far from a blackbody in the visible spectrum (is it?).
all i say to be confirmed or refuted.
