ICCF9 (May 19 – 24, 2002, Beijing, China) Was Successfully Held in Hot Peking

   After 13 years from declaration of discovery of the cold fusion phenomenon, the Ninth International Conference on Cold Fusion chaired by X.Z. Li of Tsinghua University was held in Peking under construction. More than 100 papers were presented at the Conference with more than 200 participants. Proceedings of ICCF9 will be published from Springer-Verlag in near future. Following is my subjective edition of Abstract of papers presented at the Conference.

 

Contents of Abstracts

 

Private gAbstracts of Papersh presented at ICCF9 are edited based on the Official gAbstractsh of the Conference and information obtained by the present editor (H.K.) for readersf convenience.

Presentations are grouped according to affiliations of the authors listed in the gAbstractsh and are arranged alphabetically by one of the names in the co-authors arbitrary chosen by the editor. The original numbering and the page of a presentation in the gAbstractsh are shown in a square bracket following the title as [38, p.3].

 The notation without page as [83, ] shows there is no abstract in the gAbstracts.h An asterisk on the author as gChicea*, D.h shows that the author did not present the paper and as gChubb*, S. (Chubb, T)h shows that the paper was presented by Chubb, T at the Conference.

Some presentations were not printed in the gList of Papersh in gAbstractsh but their abstracts are printed in them and included in this list without signification of the numbering as [ , p.93].
