What do they mean by cold fussion?

Cold fusion is a nuclear fusion reaction which its proponents claim occurs well below the temperature required for thermonuclear reactions (millions of degrees Celsius) in a relatively small "table top" apparatus. A variety of experimental methods are used; originally electrolytic cells. The idea was first brought into popular consciousness by the Fleischmann-Pons experiment in March of 1989, which was front-page news for some time, and has been controversial ever since. Cold fusion is sometimes referred to as low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) or chemically-assisted nuclear reactions (CANR).\n\nThe subject has been of scientific interest since nuclear fusion was first understood. Hot nuclear fusion using deuterium has the potential to yield large amounts of energy, uses an abundant fuel source, and produces only small amounts of manageable waste; thus a cheap and simple process of nuclear fusion would have great economic impact. Cold fusion is especially attractive because proponents claim that it produces very little nuclear radiation, and can be scaled down to small devices such as vehicle engines.\n\nThe existence of cold fusion has been a controversial issue. It has been dismissed by some as an example of pathological science, and an idea that would not go away, long after the majority of scientists in the field dismissed it as wrong. Despite this opposition, researchers continue to report results. While there is little mainstream acceptance of the field today, over 3,000 cold fusion papers have been published including about 1,000 in mainstream, peer-reviewed journals. Despite opposition and ridicule by mainstream journals, several peer-reviewed papers continue to be published every year.  Mainstream journals such as Scientific American and Nature have often attacked the subject, for example in March and October 2005 respectively, and most other journals reject papers on the subject without reviewing them. In January 2006, the Washington Post, Time magazine, the Guardian, and other major newspapers and magazines attacked cold fusion, claiming it was a "scientific misdeed" debunked in 1989. \n\nThe term "cold nuclear fusion" was first used in the scientific literature by Johann Rafelski and Steven E. Jones of Brigham Young University in 1986 in an investigation of what is today referred to as muon-catalyzed fusion. This research was generally unrelated; however, the distinction was not immediately understood by the press in 1989. Consequently, the term "cold fusion" became associated with the Fleischmann-Pons experiment and with other experiments involving metallic catalysts (and particularly electrolysis).The idea that palladium or titanium might catalyze fusion stems from the special ability of these metals to absorb large quantities of hydrogen (including its deuterium isotope). The hydrogen or deuterium disassociate with the respective positive ions but remain in an anomalously mobile state inside the metal lattice, exhibiting rapid diffusion and high electrical conductivity. The special ability of palladium to absorb hydrogen was recognized in the nineteenth century. In the late nineteen-twenties, two German scientists, F. Paneth and K. Peters, reported the transformation of hydrogen into helium by spontaneous nuclear catalysis when hydrogen is absorbed by finely divided palladium at room temperature. These authors later acknowledged that the helium they measured was due to background from the air.\n\nIn 1927, Swedish scientist J. Tandberg said that he had fused hydrogen into helium in an electrolytic cell with palladium electrodes. On the basis of his work he applied for a Swedish patent for "a method to produce helium and useful reaction energy". After deuterium was discovered in 1932, Tandberg continued his experiments with heavy water. Due to Paneth and Peters' retraction, Tandberg's patent application was eventually denied.On March 23, 1989, the chemists

It can mean a number or things.  It can mean you are cold (working in the same way a goose bump does), it could mean you are aroused, or it can just mean nothing at all, some women just have harder nipples than other.... but its NORMAL :)

not if you have a cold.

*raises her hand*\n\nMe!\n\n---------\n\nOh well,.. it means things you are saying may take a turn for the grim, sick, twisted,.. undead,...   Not the kind of things that are like Sunshine, Lolipops, and Puppies,...  But maybe your laughing at someone getting hurt or your jokes contain such out come.\n\nIt may seem funny to you but not some thing other people notice,.. because they are busy being as much like the Average Joe as posible.

Liquid nitrogen surely feels very cold. If u want to know how cold is it, try to dip your finger into a bottle of PURE alcohol. You will feel that your finger is very numb and you cant feel anything eventhough you try to poke yourself with a needle. You feel cold is because liquid nitrogen vapourized very quickly. To vapourize, the liquid nitrogen will absorb heat from your body(finger) so that the molecules of the liquid nitrogen will have sufficient energy to 'brake away' and vapourize. Thats why it feels really cold and numb.

Not trying to be rude , but I don't need your cold.\nI need to work as much as possible because my finances are as bad as you feel... kind of laugh and say I hope you feel better soon.

A cold front is the boundary between two different air masses where cold air pushes warm air out of the way and brings colder weather, or just simply a gust of cool air.\n\nhope it helps. =]

I am afraid of people who are afraid of cold things.\noops should have said one with frigaphobia is afraid of cold things...

blow it.you may have a cold coming.

When your sick and you are shivering, generally it means you are running a fever - take your temperature....\nNormally when you begin to sweat, it can mean that your fever is breaking (going away...take your temp to check it)...\nDon't freak out unless your temp gets to 102 or 103 and you can't get it to go down on its own ...drink lots of clear liquids and get plenty of rest...\nGet better soon....

'Wrap up' advice to stop colds\nScientists say cold noses reduce ability to fight virus attacks\n\nMonday, November 14, 2005; Posted: 4:47 p.m. EST (21:47 GMT) \n\nLONDON, England (CNN) -- British researchers into the common cold say "catching a chill" really does help colds develop -- and are advising to "wrap up warm" to keep viruses at bay.\n\nMothers and grandmothers have long warned that chilling the surface of the body, through wet clothes, feet and hair, causes common cold symptoms to develop. \n\nBut much previous research has dismissed any link between chilling and viral infection as having no scientific basis. \n\nNow researchers in Cardiff, Wales, say they can prove drops in temperature to the body really can cause a cold to develop. (Watch what they did to 'chill' people in the study -- 3:24)\n\nClaire Johnson and Professor Ron Eccles, from Cardiff University's Common Cold Center, recruited 180 volunteers, half of whom they got to immerse their feet in ice and cold water for 20 minutes.\n\nThe other 90 in tests during the common cold "season" sat with their feet in an empty bowl. \n\nDuring the next four or five days, almost a third (29 percent) of the chilled volunteers developed cold symptoms -- compared to just 9 percent in the control group, the scientists said. \n\nProfessor Eccles said there was a simple explanation as to why chilly feet could lead to the development of cold virus symptoms. \n\n"When colds are circulating in the community many people are mildly infected but show no symptoms," he said, according to the UK's Press Association. \n\n"If they become chilled this causes a pronounced constriction of the blood vessels in the nose and shuts off the warm blood that supplies the white cells that fight infection. \n\n"The reduced defences in the nose allow the virus to get stronger and common cold symptoms develop. \n\n"Although the chilled subject believes they have `caught a cold' what has in fact happened is that the dormant infection has taken hold." \n\nThe researchers, writing in the UK medical journal Family Practice, said that common colds were more prevalent in the winter than the summer, and this could be related to an increased incidence of chilling causing more clinical colds. \n\nBut they also suggested that another explanation could be that our noses are colder in the winter. \n\nProfessor Eccles added: "A cold nose may be one of the major factors that causes common colds to be seasonal. \n\n"When the cold weather comes we wrap ourselves up in winter coats to keep warm but our nose is directly exposed to the cold air. \n\n"Cooling of the nose slows down clearance of viruses from the nose and slows down the white cells that fight infection. \n\n"Mothers can now be confident in their advice to children to wrap up well in winter." \n\nCardiff's Common Cold Center says it is the world's only center dedicated to researching and testing new medicines for the treatment of flu and the common cold.

Cold temperatures- like that of ice- slow down molecules and keep them closer together.  Higher temperatures- like that of gases- speed up molecules and let them get lose and fly wherever they want.
