General Requirements for productive Cold fusion study
If you are about to study up on cold fusion you'll need some prior
knowledge of or time to become knowledgable in fields of
electrochemistry, nuclear physics, mass spectroscopy, quantum physics,
nuclear chemistry, metallurgy, plasma physics, and more....
Critical
study by leading experimentalists and technologists in this field
includes ultra precise calorimetry, helium mass spectroscopy for both
isotopes of helium, isotope ratio studies of both low and high mass
species, neutron activation analysis, energetic radiation emission
detection for alphas, betas, gammas, neutrons, and soft x-rays by
various prompt and time integrating methods.
You'll also
need a thick skin, including or perhaps especially on your back, as
many people who call themselves scientists are wanton skeptics and
trolls with regard to cold fusion. They don't bother with reading and
understanding the plethora of outstanding science in this field, rather
they simply shreik at any and all who dare work in the field as if
there is nothing left unknown in thier world. The thick hide on
your back will also come in handy when other cold fusion researchers
start shootin arrows into you from behind if you should pull ahead of
them in your understanding of the field.
All in all however this is a fascinating field of science which holds immeasurable promise for society and the planet.
