More Evidence for Tabletop Fusion

heptapod writes "Researchers at Purdue University have statistically significant evidence that their tabletop fusion experiments were successful. Yiban Xu's experiment different from an earlier Oak Ridge experiment using a different and cheaper source of neutrons than Oak Ridge's pulse neutron generator. Surpassing break-even point still eludes the grasp of science."

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., July. 12 (AScribe Newswire) -- Researchers at Purdue University have new evidence supporting earlier findings by other scientists who designed an inexpensive "tabletop" device that uses sound waves to produce nuclear fusion reactions.

The technology shows great promise, but critics have claimed that the tabletop device is just an iPod, and that the reactions it produces are not nuclear fusion, but Jazz fusion.

"Bop Shop doo Wop", said Purdue Prof. Miles Davis in support of the technology.

Truly an expert opinion.
