The course runs from Tuesday, January 22 through Wednesday, January 30, 2013 from 11AM-1PM in Room 4-153 and 66-144 on the MIT campus.

Peter Hagelstein Cold Fusion 101 in 2012Participants in the course will learn about cold fusion from a top theorist in the field, as well as one of the industry’s leading technologists.
The cold fusion energy cell built by Dr. Mitchell Swartz of JET Energy produced excess heat continuously for months on the MIT campus. Described as a zirconium-oxide nanostructured quantum electronic device, the phenomenon was observed by both students and the condensed matter nuclear science (CMNS) community as well as members of the general public.
From “Demonstration of Excess Power from the JET Energy NANOR at MIT” by M.Swartz and P HagelsteinMitchell Swartz and Peter Hagelstein released Demonstration of Excess Heat from a JET Energy NANOR at MIT[.pdf], a report summarizing their excess heat results from the cell.
