Description

Since its discovery by Stanley Pons & Martin Fleischmann in 1989, cold nuclear fusion has been a controversial area of research. Today, twenty-four years on, many within the scientific community still regard cold fusion as an impossible dream. However, some scientists are convinced of the opposite:

"Cold fusion is a scientific revolution of unimaginable impact"
- Dr Frank Gordon, former head of US SPAWAR group, Aug 2012

An excellent topic to delve deeper into....

The Technical University Eindhoven, in cooperation with KIVI NIRIA, is therefore pleased to host a colloquium (in English) to be held by Prof Jean-Paul Biberian, an expert or the field of cold nuclear fusion at the University of Marseille. In about an hour, Prof Biberian will give a recent overview of the state of science in the field of cold fusion, focusing on experimental results from institutes such as MIT, the US Naval Research Laboratory, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and many others. He will explain key experiments, many of which have been published in scientific journals.

Following the presentation, there will be plenty of opportunity for questions and discussion, which promises to make this an interesting session with informal drinks afterwards

Speaker(s)

Jean-Paul Biberian, former professor at the University of Marseille, is one of the few French scientists active in the field of cold fusion since the 1990s. He is a member of the board of the International Society of Condensed Matter Nuclear Science and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Condensed Matter Nuclear Science. Besides his scientific contributions, Prof Biberian is the public face of cold nuclear fusion in France and has several popular science articles and films to his credit. His most recent contribution is a book: "La fusion dans tous ses états", with an introduction written by Dr Stanley Pons
