• Resumen

  • This article focuses on research into cold fusion. After 15 years, cold fusion got a second chance at legitimacy from the U.S. Department of Energy, often seen by cold fusion advocates as their greatest enemy. Repeated experiments led to unpredictable results, and in November 1989 a special DOE panel found no convincing evidence for cold fusion. Cold fusion investigations continued sporadically around the world in industry, university and government labs. After the 10th International Conference on Cold Fusion, physicist Peter Hagelstein of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology thought research had progressed far enough to request an update on the first review.
