Mr. Beaudette reviews the key claims of two historic papers which "were published in peer-reviewed journals and stand today in the annals of science as unmitigated, compelling evidence that a new natural phenomenon called 'excess heat' exists. This phenomenon carries with it vast implications."
The first is a seminal paper by Fleischmann, Pons, Anderson, Li, and Hawkins, "Calorimetry of the Palladium - Deuterium - Heavy Water System," which describes a table-top chemistry experiment wherein heavy water was electrolyzed using a palladium cathode. This paper was published in the Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry, (287 (1990) 293, July 25, 1990). Two claims were made:
- The generation of high levels of inexplicable heat energy, and
- The absence of neutron radiation at levels proportional to the energy generated.
The second historically significant paper was written by Richard Oriani and corroborated the Utah team's heat energy claims: "Calorimetric Measurements of Excess Power Output During the Cathodic Charging of Deuterium into Palladium," published in Fusion Technology, 1990, 18: p. 652.
