Brief Summary Of Important Scientific Results Presentedat The 8th International Workshop On Anomalies Inrnhydrogen/deuterium Loaded Metals

摘要

The 8th International Workshop on Anomalies in Hydrogen/Deuterium Loaded Metals was held at the Sheraton Catania Hotel in Catania, Sicily, Italy, from October 13 through October 18, 2007. The workshop, which was sponsored by the Japan Cold Fusion Society, the Fulvio Frisone Foundation, Infinite Energy Magazine, the Sheraton Catania Hotel, and the International Society of Condensed Matter Nuclear Science, is the eighth in a series (since 1997), that has evolved out of an earlier conference series (referred to as the Asti conferences) that have been officially held in Italy since 1993. Fausto Lanfranco of Fiat organized the initial series of conferences. In 1997, Bill Collis took over this responsibility when the emphasis of the work presented shifted from general cold fusion phenomena to anomalies in hydrogen- and deuterium-loaded metals. A potentially important development in the organizational structure or sponsorship of these workshops is the fact that political support has recently been extended by the local (Regione Siciliana) government, through its support of the conference via a key sponsor, an evolving, non-profit organization, the Fulvio Frisone Foundation.
