It would be nice if they did, but I would not be sure about that.
A theoretical model is just like the word says, theoretical, hence can also be developed without new experimental data but simply with a new hypothesis.

Before thinking to production we will have to wait until there will be a replication of results and indipendent validation for this class of materials.

If you are practical with Finite Element Analysis and able to use COMSOL or similar (plus having some free time to spare) join FF volunteers team:

You are making an hell of a work ladajo.
Thanks from everyone and even if no big info will come out of all of this work you deserve our outmost gratitude for the time you are spending into this.

Wow. Bussard is looking more like a scientific Bernie Madoff every day. While I understand your logic in this assertion, the example you make does not fit. Science is about trying new and different roads and get a potential huge return if you succeed. You can compare money invested in this type of ...

True, with actual economic situation it could have been much worst....

The "Non Iter" refers to funds for alternate fusion research or is a bigger voice compromising different research fields?

Everyone, take 30 mins of time and get a good read to the paper. Apart from being an interesting mathematical speculation, I can consider it at maximum to be a special case of E=mc2 transformation. Their working hypothesis will have to undergo some tough experimental checks. Lukily SWCNT are not tha...

Famulus, go on like that, every day more near to the goal

Can't wait when you will actually be able to crunch out some polywell data... drooooolling.....

What is that supposed to mean??

GIThruster, What is required rather, is for BLP to have a continuous process, one where their supposed catalyst is thermally replenished just as they say, so that we can see whether this is a continuous process with commercial application, or if it's something else, like a Raney Ni reaction, or a LE...

No Giorgio. You linked to an ignorant blogspot with no real math and worse, a bunch of guesswork, then called it "proof". Right, that blog was so ignorant and guessed that the patent examiner had to report it in his rebuttal as an evidence... you have a weird idea about the definition of the word i...

Good find. :-) Tell me if I'm characterizing the arguments properly: the patent examiner is saying that a Ni reaction can occur and account for the heat generated. The Rowan examiner is saying that because there is insufficient Ni found in the reactants, no Ni reaction could have occurred. Is this ...

I took a while digging out those patent sheets and then turning them into jpegs for you to see. Please look back up and see the equations the examiner has worked out for Randell, marked as 'Appendix C' in the document. Have you read that document that I took the trouble to find for you to read? Of ...

Giorgio, there is no such thing as "proof" in science. If you understood how science works, you'd know this. I think we have nothing else to discuss. You can spare me that "Philosophy of Science" crap. It might probably be considered interesting from a 6th grader, but won't work on me. I'll quote y...
