Is nuclear fusion a sustainable energy form?

Nuclear Energy in a Sustainable Development Perspective

Pursuant to Article 1 of the Convention signed in Paris on 14th December 1960, and which came into force on 30th September 1961, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) shall promote policies designed: − to achieve the highest sustainable economic growth and employment and a rising standard of living in Member countries, while maintaining financial stability, and thus t...

Nuclear Energy in a Sustainable Development Perspective

A new energy source from nuclear fusion

A process (international patent publication N. WO 2009/125444 A1) capable of producing large amounts of energy by a nuclear fusion process between nickel and hydrogen, occurring below 1000 K, is described. Experimental values of the ratios between output and input energies obtained in a certain number of experiments are reported. The occurrence of the e¤ect is justi…ed on the basis of existing ...

Low Energy Nuclear Fusion Reactions in Solids

The DD fusion reactions in various materials have been studied, and enhancements in the rate of the D(d,p)T fusion reaction over the Gamow function were clearly seen in the materials. Of particular interest is the fact that the reaction rate of the D+D reactions at 2.5 keV in PdO is 60 times (and in Pd 10 times) larger than in Ti, and the deduced screening energy amounts to 600 eV (300 eV). Fur...

Dark Energy is Stellar Nuclear Fusion Replicated in a Mirrored Universe

From a Twin Universe perspective, it is proposed that stellar nuclear fusion can account for the negative-energy pressure (Dark Energy) that drives our present-day accelerated cosmic expansion. In the mirror twinned universe all processes are duplicated but with reverse negative polarity. Both the Positive and Negative Universes exist on the opposing surfaces of a topological two-dimensional me...
