Taleyarkhan, R.P., West, C.D., Lahey, Jr., R.T., Block, R.C., "Comments On The Shapira And Saltmarsh Report ," (March 2, 2002)
"An internal audit of our Bubble Fusion experiment was performed by ORNL. It was concluded that both our tritium[7] and neutron[8] measurements were valid. However, some additional experiments were performed by the Physics Department and these measurements initially appeared to yield results which were different from ours (e.g., a lower fusion neutron yield). The resultant internal ORNL report[2]...was unfortunately widely disseminated and this has led to a lot of controversy concerning our experimental findings. Indeed, some people may have reached conclusions concerning the validity of our findings prior to the publication of our paper. This is truly unfortunate and is very unprofessional." |
