Physicist Joshua Pearce of Clarion University of Pennsylvania has attempted to balance the nuclear books and finds the bottom line simply does not add up. There [...]

 In the MSR reactor fission occurs in a circulating molten salt fuel mixture in a neutron stingy reactor that permits a full actinide burn fuel cycle. In the MSR system, the fuel, a circulating liquid mixture of sodium, zirconium and uranium fluorides, flows through graphite core channels in the reactor chamber where it undergoes fission. [...]

For the record, the term “cold fusion” was never chosen by Fleischmann and Pons; it was wished on them [...]

“Fire from Water”. The fuel is water. not regular water, but a highly refined and pure source such as “ultrapure reagent grade water” or alike,with concentrations of hydrogen isotopes in order for a plasma to resonate. The fuel is 2 parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. The “trick” to make the nuclear reactions are the [...]
