...solar observations should provide clues to many of the still unanswered or only partly resolved questions about the sun: Does the solar cycle affect terrestrial weather? What internal mechanisms control the cycle? Is the sun growing cooler? Hotter? Is there a basic flaw in the current theory about the fusion process that powers the solar furnace...
...claim is so dramatic and startling that some biologists, perhaps mindful of the recent flap over test-tube atomic fusion, have been wary of taking it at face value. But an experiment reported by researchers at the University of Rome and at that city's Institute of Biomedical Technology may mean that the genetic engineering of animals -- grafting characteristics from one organism onto another -- has taken a major step forward...
...scientists at the conference also supported the cold fusion findings of Brigham Young University professor Steven Jones, who detected neutron emission in small quantities. That discovery suggests that there are minute amounts of fusion occurring inside the palladium, a discovery which has few commercial applications but is of great scientific interest...
...looking at the cold fusion reaction, in particular the Brigham Young phenomenon rather than that other one," Jones said. "That is, we'll be looking for neutrons rather than heat...
...fusion confusion also continues outside of Utah. According to a Stanford University spokeperson, Stanford professor of Materials Science Robert A. Huggins insists that the heat energy released in his experiment could only be caused by fusion...
