In the past couple of years cold fusion has received renewed attention, though it's now been renamed to "low energy nuclear reactions" or LENR for short. In this video I look at what we know and don't know, and how promising it is. The early papers on muon catalyzed fusion that I mention are here: https://www.nature.com/articles/160525a0 https://journals.aps.org/pr/abstract/10.1103/PhysRev.106.330 The papers about electron shielding in lattices are here: https://www.publish.csiro.au/ph/PH540373 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF01289572 The references for the early cold fusion papers from the 1920s are Paneth & Peters, Naturwissenschaften, 14(43), 956–962 (1926) Wendt & Irion, JACS, 44(9), 1887–1894 (1922) Huw Price has a paper about the entire cold fusion story here https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.03776 If you want to get started with reading about the topic, I suggest you start with Huw's paper. The paper with the laser modulation is this: https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/71612 The report from the follow-up experiment that failed to reproduce the laser modulation results is here: http://coldfusioncommunity.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/1_JCMNS-Vol20.pdf The paper from Edmund Storms is here: https://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/BiberianJPjcondenseds.pdf#page=86 Arvin Ash's video about the strong nuclear force is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WF2c_jzefKc The recent paper with hypotheses for how low energy nuclear reactions might come about is here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.07245 💌 Sign up for my weekly science newsletter.
