The Rossi Effect Explained From Ecat.com — Official E-Cat Site (Update: Rossi Calls it ‘Very Superficial’)

Thanks to a reader for sending a link that I had not seen before. This comes from ecat.com, which is an official E-Cat site, run by Hydro Fusion, an E-Cat licensee based in Sweden.

The title of the page is “The Rossi Effect”, and it’s an attempt to explain the Rossi effect in a simple manner. I am not sure if this is Andrea Rossi’s own explanation (it does not read in his style), perhaps it is an attempt by Hydro Fusion to interpret the Rossi effect, based on the recently approved patent, and the paper he authored with Norman Cook.

Here is the link: http://ecat.com/ecat-science/the-rossi-effect

Here’s one excerpt that explains why there is no gamma radiation emitted from the E-Cats.

Especially beneficial is that gamma radiation is naturally absent in the Rossi Effect because the energy is only released as kinetic energy through thermal Helium nuclei which later thermalize the Nickel Lattice and the inner walls of the ECAT reactor core, under impact, turning kinetic energy into thermal energy. This makes the Rossi Effect ideal for utilizing nuclear sized energy in the complete absence of both radioactive materials and radiation.

UPDATE: I sent a question to Andrea Rossi on the Journal of Nuclear Physics, and asked if he had written this, and if it was a complete description of the Rossi Effect. He responded:

Frank Acland:
It is not a complete description, nor it is a consolidated idea about a theory of which I am preparing together with Prof Norman Cook something more structured under a mathematical point of view. Call it a first approach, very superficial. Much deeper considerations are coming, albeit I don’t know how much soon.
Warm Regards,
