“If someone says stop, then stop. Do not enter onto a thread on a topic you don’t like just to disrupt, rattle cages, poke sticks, insult the regulars, or engage in trolling activities, etc.” ~Jim Robinson
The issue isn’t whether we allow skepticism, it is whether we allow hyperskeptics and skeptopaths to ruin the scientific dialog. Such FReepers who persist in polluting these threads have been asked to leave, and we are asking that they open their own threads if they have comments.
“This topic has a following, people who wish to learn and discuss the materials presented. Please refrain from posting anything that doesn’t legitimately address the issue. Something is going on in this segment of science. There are a considerable number of research groups studying the matter.” ~ Sidebar Moderator https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3977426/posts?page=19#19 —————————————————————————————————————
I calculate that Arata's results generate the thermal energy equivalent of 529 grams of gasoline for each gram of deuterium. I'm assuming the "Material" column indicates the mass of deuterium used, not the mass of palladium nanopowder, which is not consumed.
Way to much to be an accident, experimental error, or to be the result of chemical processes.
Even so, only a tiny fraction of the deuterium would have undergone fusion, which would release something like one hundred million times more energy per gram than would gasoline. Only a few micrograms of D2 would have actually fused.
