LENR Presentation by Joseph Zawodny, NASA Langley Research Center by admin Published on 12-05-2011 12:35 AM On September of 2011, NASA Glen Research Center held a LENR Workshop at GRC on LENR. The notes are not currently available on NASA's site, but ecatplanet obtained the presentation notes from Dr. Dennis Bushnell and Dr. Joseph Zawodny via FOIA request. Zawodny's presentation includes 35 pages of slides and includes a historical overview, theory, and implications for aerospace and beyond. The powerpoint slides is available as a download at ZawodnyLENR for GRC.ppt or slightly modified with some NASA acronyms defined here. Theory...

At the meeting, Bushnell also spoke about Andrea Rossi, the inventor of the Energy Catalyzer. “We intend to core down on the Rossi stuff and find out what’s real and what’s not,” Bushnell said. “But Rossi’s business is hard to explain other than with some kind of LENR. The Rossi stuff is probably wholly Edisonian and not totally understood, which is an understatement. But we can probably understand it at some point.” Bushnell failed to mention that NASA had already made attempts to perform due diligence on the Rossi device. Some of the people involved in those attempts were in...

Peak Spoilers December 4, 2011 tags: Energy Bulletin, Peak Oil by Ruby Carat Palms – so narrow and closed in – have been poured over people’s limbs. But countless worthless things keep crashing in, blunting their cares. During their lifetimes they see such a little part of life and then they are off: short-lived, flying up and away like smoke, totally persuaded by whatever each of them happened to bump into while being driven one way, another way, all over the place. And they claim in vain that they have found the whole. Like this, there is no way...

NASA’s Bushnell: BTW LENR Solves Global Climate and Energy admin on December 2, 2011 — 9 Comments The long-awaited details from Dennis Bushnell’s Sep 22, 2011 presentation have surfaced. They are still not on the official site (bottom of page) and I can’t find the original through Google, so I put a slight cautionary note here that the contents have yet to be verified. Believe it or not, these are just some of the points he makes. None of them will surprise many of you reading this but even so and coming from someone famed for sticking his neck...

It seems that Dr Rossi and Defkalion agree about something. The Greek company is at pains to say that Hyperion is absolutely their technology and nothing to do with the eCat. While some may find this an Alice-in-Wonderland statement, the Italian inventor does not. He accuses them – without naming – of operating a scam. Andrea Rossi December 1st, 2011 at 12:44 AM WARNING: SOMEBODY IS ON THE ROAD SAYING THEY HAVE SUCCEEDED IN STEALING OUR TECHNOLOGY ( WHOSE PATENT HAS BEEN GRANTED IN ITALY AND IS PENDING IN THE WORLD) AND ARE TRYING TO SELL A MOCK UP SAYING...

Defkalion: “We have Rossi’s formula” Av: Mats Lewan Publicerad igår, 10:13 4 kommentarer Tomorrow on Wednesday the Greek company Defkalion will present products similar to Andrea Rossi’s 'E-cat', claiming that the technology is developed in-house. But Defkalion earlier told Ny Teknik that it has 'the formula of Rossi' . “Let’s say I have the formula of Rossi, but I’m not saying it officially. My scientists found a way to make it. They need three months.” That is what Alexandros Xanthoulis, representative of Defkalion Green Technology’s owners, told Ny Teknik in a telephone conversation on August 5, 2011 . “I...

Mats Lewan of Ny Teknik, the Swedish tech magazine at the forefront of reporting on Rossi’s eCat has an interesting article this morning. It notes the disparity between the recent pronouncement by Defkalion GT’s Alexandros Xanthoulis dissociating the Hyperion from Rossi’s eCat. According to the publication, back in August 5, 2011, Xanthoulis said the following over the phone: “Let’s say I have the formula of Rossi, but I’m not saying it officially. My scientists found a way to make it. They need three months.” Rossi has been consistent in his assertion that they have nothing despite the company’s public stance...

New eCat Customer To Be Public admin on November 29, 2011 — 7 Comments Herb Gillis November 28th, 2011 at 12:42 PM Andrea Rossi: How long do you think it will be before there is a 1MW customer that is willing to talk about their experiences with the product and act as a reference? Having another customer out there who is willing to act as a reference could provide tremendous leverage. This would be far more valuable than any public test. It would silence the skeptics forever. Andrea Rossi November 28th, 2011 at 6:48 PM Dear Herb Gills: Today...

Rossi... visited the State House last week ... Andrea Rossi made the trip at the invitation of the Senate’s minority leader, Bruce Tarr, a Republican from Gloucester, and met on Tuesday with representatives from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Northeastern University, and the University of Massachusetts. .... At this point, however, the E-Cat is widely considered to be unproven. Tests have been scarce and secretive, perhaps because Rossi has said that his technology is still unpatented. Andrea Rossi was invited to Massachusetts by the Senate’s minority leader, Bruce Tarr (left), a Republican from Gloucester. ‘‘If it works, I want this...

If anyone is going to buy an E-Cat now might be just the time before the claims for its excess power output declines even further. Some background: Writes Krivit, "On Feb. 28, 2010, Sergio Focardi, a retired physics professor from the University of Bologna, along with inventor Rossi published “A New Energy Source From Nuclear Fusion” on Rossi’s blog called the “Journal of Nuclear Physics.” In their paper, they claim an energy gain of 213 times heat output compared with the electrical input.".................... Writing further, "According to Hampus Ericsson, who also attended the Kullander lecture, Kullander’s message was that “you...

Andrea Rossi Replies to Brian Josephson 26 novembre 2011 By Cold Fusion News Andrea Rossi has replied to Nobel Prize winning Cambridge Physicist Brian Josephson’s demands for a scientific test of the e-cat cold fusion device.

According to Francesco Celani, a physicist...

So begins the article, "Not sure what to make of this. Talking of Defkalion, Andrea Rossi says that he led the company a false trail. They took the bait, thinking that he would be selling small eCats in October. In doing so, it wrong-footed them and upset their plans to present a fake version of the same" Read more: http://www.ecatnews.net/#ixzz1eegcEqDj

Sven Kullander On Rossi And eCat admin on November 23, 2011 — 6 Comments http://ecatnews.com/?p=1409 The following was posted on the Facebook Energy Catalyzer page. It comes from Hampus Ericsson who attended Sven Kullander’s Örebro talk today. Kullander has been a key player in gaining Rossi credibility in the past few months. Taken in the sweep, it appears to me that he believes in Rossi and his claims but reserves the right to be wrong until definitive independent tests drive the nail home. His comment about AR’s prickly response to anyone who distrusts him is interesting. This flies counter...

Andrea Rossi November 21st, 2011 at 11:25 PM Dear Felipe From Chile: You are right, we are organizing this.

Rossi’s erstwhile partner, Defkalion Green Technologies recently announced that within the month they will be providing more details about their Hyperion products, which they say will be running on a different technology to Rossi’s energy catalyzer. Alexandros Xanthoulis, DGT’s CEO told the Greek publication Tovima last week that, “within the next...

Defkalion Nearly Ready, NASA Files Patent, Piantelli Silent Posted on November 21, 2011 http://e-catsite.com/2011/11/21/defkalion-nearly-ready-nasa-files-patent-piantelli-silent/ Defkalion Green Technologies of Greece continues to publicly speak as if their version of Andrea Rossi’s e-Cat will soon ready for the market. For those new to the story, or just as a refresher, Defkalion was Andrea Rossi’s original business partner but there was a sudden and quite public break with Rossi in August. At that the time both sides claimed that the split was over a financial dispute but, accordingly to a news article in a Greek publication, Tovima, there was more to the...

Acland quotes another cold fusion researcher at the E-Cat World page: "“In the last 8 weeks I have been astounded by a superior nanotechnology that will capture the imagination of even the greatest foes of LENR. I believe all of LENR is just a new and unanticipated form of nanomagnetism.”

We Have Our Own eCat Says Defkalion November 20, 2011 | Author: admin An article in the Greek publication Tovima quotes Defkalion’s Alexander Xanthoulis as saying that the company has the eCat technology independent of Rossi and is almost ready to roll. They claim that their system is stable and that Rossi’s is not. According to their version of the split, that instability was at its centre and that AR did not demonstrate the eCat to the required specification – that of a stable run lasting at least 48 hours. Tovima Googlated: “We not only continue our program and we...

Swedish physicists run the site Ecat.com Av: Mats Lewan Publicerad igår, 14:04 UPDATED. Four Swedish entrepreneurs, two of them particle physicists, run the site Ecat.com which since a couple of days takes pre-orders for Andrea Rossi’s E-cat. Ny Teknik got an interview”. Ny Teknik can now confirm that a British company, Hydrofusion, is behind the website Ecat.com which launched with full content on November 16, 2011”. The site was anonymous at launch, but Andrea Rossi, the inventor of the E-cat, stated that the website represented his North Europe commercial branch”. Hydrofusion is run by four Swedish entrepreneurs – CEO...

Two European Web Sites Confirmed By Rossi as Legitimate Partners November 17, 2011 For a number of weeks now the website www.ecat.com has been posting videos filmed at the October 6th demonstration on Bologna, but the site’s relationship with Andrea Rossi has not been clear. Yesterday the site was updated significantly, and now appears to be a full service site dealing with E-Cat technology stating that it is “In Association with Andrea Rossi”. The site includes sections on science, business, patents and products, and on the front page is a form which can be used by potential customers to get...

The Peak Oil Crisis: Transitioning to Cold Fusion By Tom Whipple Wednesday, November 16 2011 02:45:44 PM Events move quickly these days. Two weeks ago we were watching Bologna, Italy where an entrepreneur and a retired physics professor claimed to have discovered the Holy Grail of energy - cold fusion or as it is now known: Low Energy Nuclear Reactions. At the time, there was (and still is) widespread concern that the various demonstrations of an energy-producing devices were a scam as the developers, for commercial reasons, refused to give outsiders access to their inner workings . If you...

The Fusion Revolution When the first human animal figured out how to make fire at will, life on earth changed forever. The fictional character Sherlock Holmes once said that "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." Using that logic, I have come to the conclusion that fossil fuels will soon become obsolete, and human history will again be dramatically altered. A total switchover to fusion power will take decades, but basic economics tells us that fusion reactors will win in the marketplace over their more costly competitors. Imagine a clean new world...

From an aticle at Free Energy Truth that appeared at E-Cat News "Andrea Rossi has made a great choice in asking NI to help design and build the eCat control systems and this is YET ANOTHER VALIDATION that Rossi's eCat technology is the real thing. The statement from NI is very reassuring. It confirms that there is the beginnings of a positive relationship between one of the worlds best companies and Andrea Rossi's Leonardo Corporation." (NI is National Instruments)

NI And The eCat Money Trail admin on November 11, 2011 — 68 Comments Peswiki’s scoop on the National Instruments relationship with Rossi is a left-field slam that forces you to think anew. I have a feeling that AR has more of the same in store. He is doing things his own way, sticking a finger to those who tie themselves in knots trying to figure the trick, the small army with big voices who attack anyone associated with the inventor as in-on-the-scam or incompetent. Poor NI do not know what they have let themselves in for. They will...

E-Cat Technology by Andrea Rossi of Leonardo Corporation

Italian scientist Andrea Rossi has spent the past year giving demonstrations of a device that he claims can generate large amounts of energy due to a little-understood nuclear process. His latest demonstration, performed on October 28th, has attracted some of the most mainstream media attention yet, with coverage by outlets including Fox News, Forbes, and MSNBC, among others. But the big question still seems to be whether Rossi’s E-Cat (energy catalyzer) device is a huge breakthrough or a huge scam. What’s making the answer so difficult to determine is the lack of a clear, scientific explanation of what exactly is...

National Instruments to Make Instrumentation for E-Cat Plants November 11, 2011 PESWiki is reporting that Andrea Rossi’s Leonardo Corporation has signed an agreement with National Instruments of Austin, Texas for NI to provide all the instrumentation for the E-Cat plants that Leonardo Corp will be manufacturing. Sterling D. Allan of PESN reports that he learned of the agreement during a conference call with Rossi, and that NI’s Director of Physics, Stefano Concezzi confirmed to him (Allan) that Rossi was a customer. National Intstruments is a leading provider of advanced hardware and software that is used in industrial and scientific applications...

According to a slide presentation given by NASA engineer Michael A. Nelson, which New Energy Times obtained under a FOIA request, “Energy Catalyzer” inventor Andrea Rossi failed to conclusively show that his device produced excess heat from a nuclear energy source. According to Nelson, a NASA engineer who investigates low-energy nuclear reactions and space applications, Rossi did not run his demonstration long enough to prove his extraordinary claim. At the Sept. 22, 2011 LENR Workshop at NASA Glenn Research Center, Nelson explained that Rossi “would need to run [his experiment] for eight hours or more with a small E-Cat and...

eCat: A Week In The Media Reviewed MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 2011 Well, that was quite a week. After over 10 months we've now seen the eCat break through into the mainstream awareness. In the past week alone, we've seen the eCat go from relative obscurity to being covered in some of the larger and well-known mainstream press. It's still not on the 6 o'clock news, but it's a start. MSNBC wrote a brilliant article "Italian cold fusion machine passes another test". http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45153076/ns/technology_and_science-science/#.Trb9qnIrySo Fox News were fairly unbalanced when they finally got their teeth into the story, but they still...

Andrea Rossi’s Ecat featured on Bloomberg TV! WRITTEN BY ECATREPORT MONDAY, 07 NOVEMBER 2011 13:46 Very interesting. This weekend Bloomberg TV aired a clip from Ecat.com‘s video footage taken from the 6th of October event. The TV-show energyNOW! have a special feature each week they call “The Hot Zone” which brings up new energy developments around the world. Andrea Rossi’s Ecat was apparently interesting enough to air on US national TV during last week’s program “Nuclear waste and the race for resources” for almost one minute. energyNOW! is a new half-hour weekly TV news-magazine and opinion program designed to...

Media eCat Story Evolves admin on November 6, 2011 — 27 Comments The number of media organisations dipping toes into the eCat story continues to grow. From Fox to MSNBC and the UK’s Daily Mail to Wired UK, Forbes and more. Wired was there before most and now they’ve updated their view, mirroring many of the questions informed skeptics have been asking for some time. Reserving judgement, they nevertheless note that much of the coverage appears to be softening and wonder if AP is holding back for the bigger story to come. They note the dearth of substantial coverage in...

The Science Behind the E-Cat Cold Fusion Reactor I was initially very dubious when hearing about E-Cat, a cold fusion reactor supposedly invented by Andrea Rossi. The first 1 megawatt unit was reportedly sold to a secret customer two days ago. Mainstream press has mostly ignored the invention so far. However, I found out there is a surprisingly rich history of scientific research and experiments about the mechanism it employs, nickel–hydrogen fusion. Evidence proving that the device is working keeps piling up and up. This is to a point that I am now personally convinced that this is one...

Andrea Rossi says his new machine fuses nickel and hydrogen at room temperature creating almost unlimited energy . But there is one problem - many scientists claim it defies the very laws of physics. Several high-profile demonstrations of 'cold fusion' have been proven to be hoaxes in the past - and no one can adequately explain how or why it might work . The United States Department of Energy the U.S. Patent Office say the process is impossible because physics rules out the possibility of room-temperature nuclear fusion . But Rossi's E-Cat machine can allegedly do it, and he...

• Cold fusion debate heats up after latest demo By Natalie Wolchover (Livescience.com) Italian physicist and inventor Andrea Rossi has conducted a public demonstration of his "cold fusion" machine, the E-Cat, at the University of Bologna, showing that a small amount of input energy drives an unexplained reaction between atoms of hydrogen and nickel that leads to a large outpouring of energy, more than 10 times what was put in . The first successful cold fusion experiment was reported two decades ago, but the process has forever been met with heavy skepticism. It's a seemingly impossible process in which two...

• Cold Fusion as a technology Haiko Lietz 03.11.2011 Part 10: The Italian engineer Andrea Rossi has reportedly sold a 1-megawatt generator In January 2011, at the University of Bologna, a generator has been presented which allegedly generated at the push clean energy from the cold fusion of nickel and hydrogen ( cold fusion in the Black Box? ). Ever since the Internet was tracked as a potential breakthrough in energy production moves in circles. Now, obviously is a reactor that can produce one megawatt of thermal power on the market. The estimates range from plain fraud and the beginning...

Mr. Rossi Goes to Market, Dr. Miley and Others Hope to Follow Posted on November 3, 2011 by ecatsite Italian inventor Andrea Rossi continues with commercialization of his e-Cat (energy catalyzer). In addition to the 1MW plant he tested and reportedly sold to an unnamed customer, he also reports already having sold two or more additional units. He reports that these were to customers in the USA and Europe. While he states that the new customers are not requesting the same level of secrecy, a certain amount of discretion will still be exercised, adding that eventually the identity of...

Despite a world of skepticism about E-Cat and other devices, proof is adding up Italian physicist and inventor Andrea Rossi has conducted a public demonstration of his "cold fusion" machine, the E-Cat, at the University of Bologna, showing that a small amount of input energy drives an unexplained reaction between atoms of hydrogen and nickel that leads to a large outpouring of energy, more than 10 times what was put in.

So who bought the world’s first fully operational fusion reactor? Was it a straw buyer arranged by inventor Andrea Rossi as part of a larger fraud to entice gullible investors or buyers? While we have no proof yet, several interesting pieces of evidence have come to light. The first line of evidence came after the October 28 test when Rossi released an Excel spreadsheet of test data. The properties section embedded in the file identified it as coming from a computer owned by “Manutencoop Facility Management.” This is a large (16,000 employee) Italian company with a range of services including...

The Peak Oil Crisis: Cold Fusion Redux By Tom Whipple Wednesday, November 02 2011 01:19:52 PM There is a fascinating drama taking place over in Bologna, Italy involving an engineer by the name of Andrea Rossi and a physicist, Sergio Focardi, who say they have developed an entirely new source of cheap, clean, energy. This energy is said to be produced by fusing nickel and hydrogen inside a low-cost, table-top-sized reactor. Moreover, the inventors say this device is already in limited commercial production and is being sold to customers with the first delivery being made to an unknown American...

A physicist in Italy claims to have demonstrated a new type of power plant that provides safe, cheap and virtually unlimited nuclear power to the world, without fossil fuels or radiation concerns. The only hitch: Scientists say the method -- cold fusion -- is patently impossible. They say it defies the laws of physics. Andrea Rossi doesn't seem to care. He told FoxNews.com that his new device takes in nickel and hydrogen and fuses them in a low-grade nuclear reaction that essentially spits out sheer power, validating the strange science.

Does Rossi's E-Cat Work? There is Only One Way to Find Out Written by Brian Westenhaus Wednesday, 02 November 2011 13:38 Message : The past few days have seen the Rossi E-Cat reported in both news and blogs, with still no definitive answer if the device actually works. The process of introducing the device to the market is stirring up lots of controversy . So, how does one decide if the device is for real or not? Go to Bologna with money in hand and buy one. If you need heat production cheap that’s a palatable answer. Chances are...

Andrea Rossi May Sell eCat Shares admin on November 2, 2011 — 5 Comments Andrea Rossi has always indicated that he would only use his own money until he was selling eCat products on the open market. It should be no surprise then that the possibility of opening up investment opportunities to the public looms now that the 1MW plant has shipped. Of course, without knowledge of the customer’s identity or verifiable scientific proof, any such venture at this time would be high risk. If you assume for now that the eCat is real, AR has money coming in...

As everyone following the saga of Andrea Rossi and his Energy Catalyzer knows, October 28 reputedly saw the successful testing of his '1 megawatt' cold fusion plant and the first sale. Now Rossi has reported the sale of 'more than 2' such ECAT units, with rumors on the net indicating 13 sales. It is unclear whether this involves the sudden physical transfer of twelve more completed ECATS (unlikely), or that money has changed hands and sales agreements have been concluded for delivery of such units. Rossi has indicated first-year production of 30-100 such units, so a dozen ECATS represents a...

Rebuttal to Krivit's Accusation that Andrea Rossi is a Fraudster LENR Expert, Steven Krivit, who traveled to Bologna in June, was not impressed with Andrea Rossi's E-Cat reactor technology, and has been highly critical ever since. He has now crossed a line to actually accusing Rossi of running an intentional scam. We don't buy it. (See also our Oct. 28 coverage: 1 MW E-Cat Cold Fusion Device Test Successful) Steven Krivit, right, arrived in Bologna on June 15, 2011 to interview Mr. Rossi (left) and to have a look to the E-Cat . By Sterling D. Allan with Hank...

how could something like the E-Cat work in defiance of known science? Even so, to be completely dismissive of Rossi’s claims would seem to be foolish as it is one thing to *believe* something is false based on your assumptions and quite another to be able to *prove* beyond a reasonable doubt that it is false. So, before we look at the results of the E-Cat test on the 28th, what of Rossi and the E-Cat? Why has he been so cagey and secretive about the E-Cat and not permitted a reputable third party to conduct an objective performance test?...
