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.
Private “Abstracts
of Papers” presented at ICCF9 are edited based on the Official “Abstracts” of
the Conference and information obtained by the present editor (H.K.) for
readers’ convenience.
Presentations
are grouped according to affiliations of the authors listed in the “Abstracts”
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 “Abstracts” 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 “Abstracts.” An asterisk on the author as “Chicea*,
D.” shows that the author did not present the paper and as “Chubb*, S. (Chubb,
T)” shows that the paper was presented by Chubb, T at the Conference.
Some
presentations were not printed in the “List of Papers” in “Abstracts” but their
abstracts are printed in them and included in this list without signification
of the numbering as [ , p.93].
