From Robert Park's What's New

WHAT'S NEW, Friday, 5 May 1989 Washington, DC

1. THE CORPSE OF COLD FUSION WILL PROBABLY CONTINUE TO TWITCH for awhile, even after two nights of unrelenting assaults at the APS Baltimore Meeting. Perhaps the most devastating paper was by Cal Tech chemist Nathan Lewis. Scientists attempting to replicate the Pons-Fleishmann experiment reconstructed the Utah "fusion" cell from press photographs, calibrating by the width of Pon's wrist. It is at the same time amusing and outrageous. The details have presumably been shared only with companies that sign a contract with the University of Utah. Pons and Fleishmann said they were too busy preparing for a Congressional visit (WN 28 Apr 89) to speak in Baltimore. However, Pons was rumored to be in Washington this week to meet with White House Chief of Staff John Sununu. A call to Sununu's office to check out the rumor produced one of those exquisite exchanges that make life in Washington enjoyable: "Is Gov. Sununu to meet with Professor Pons?" we asked, "I cannot confirm that," the voice replied, "since the meeting is private." But when the time came, Sununu stood Pons up. Fortunes change.

4. THE CORPSE OF COLD FUSION FINALLY STOPPED TWITCHING THIS WEEK when the DOE Cold Fusion Panel drafted its interim report. It took only four pages to establish that no persuasive evidence of cold fusion exists and that new efforts to find cold fusion are not justified. The panel carefully distinguished between reports of cold fusion at very low levels, which might justify modest support, and claims of cold fusion producing measurable excess energy, for which no substantial expenditure is recommended.

3. BUBBLE FUSION: CORPSE OF "SONOFUSION" IS SAID TO BE TWITCHING. A new claim of desktop fusion from collapsing bubbles is coming out. It¹s been two years since Taleyarken et al. at Oak Ridge National Laboratory reported in Science magazine that they had observed 2.5 MeV neutron peaks correlated with sonoluminescence from collapsing bubbles (WN 01 Mar 02), but others could not confirm their results. By mid summer the bubble had burst (WN 26 Jul 02). That was remarkably similar to the lifetime of cold fusion. But now Taleyarken has new results that some say are more convincing. Perhaps we should wait for independent confirmation. Cold fusion, of course, still has believers, but not much confirmation.
