"In March 1989, Roger Stringham of First Gate Energies, in Hawaii, USA pioneered the method of using acoustic cavitation to produce the cold fusion effect. Acoustic cavitation uses ultrasonic waves to create gas bubbles within the heavy water. Stringham was the first to use the term "sonofusion" to describe how this phenomenon creates energy in cold fusion experiments.

This work is not be confused with other experiments in the hot fusion field which also use a form of acoustic cavitation, called "acoustic inertial confinement fusion." The two types of research are markedly different.

The key differences with the cold fusion method, sonofusion, is that the effect is directly related to an as-yet-unknown interaction between heavy water and a host metal, such as palladium. The hot fusion method does not employ a host metal. The other key distinction between the cold fusion and hot fusion method is that the cold fusion method produces no deadly neutron radiation, as occurs in hot fusion." (Steven B. Krivit,New Energy Times; 2005)

How it Works

  • Sonofusion Jets - Sonofusion energy is harvested from many billions of TCBs, transient cavitation bubbles, produced/sec in 1 cc of D2O, the volume of the device that experimentally produces around 40 watts of sonofusion heat.

  • When Bubble Cavitation becomes Sonofusion - Remembering Fleischman and Pons - Roger Sherman Stringham discusses the sonofusion reactor bubble cavitation process he helped patent years ago at the American Chemical Society in Salt Lake City, UT, March 2009. Experimentally, heat and helium are the sonofusion's fusion products. Sonofusion controls a naturally occurring phenomenon with cavitation-induced bubbles and their high energy density transfered to transient jets that implant deuteron clusters into a matrix lattice. The Sonofusion path to clusters can be extrapolated from high-density experiments of inertial confined fusion, Bose Einstein Condensates, muon fusion and astrophysical phenomena, to explain our ejecta sites, heat, helium and no measureable long range radiation results. The fusion events emanate from deuteron clusters implanted into target foils. Clusters are squeezed and cooled via electromagnetic, compression pressures and endothermic deuteron atom recombination producing the fusion environment. Evidence of these cluster fusion events are found in the millions of target foil ejecta sites in Sonofusion target foils. Video produced by Dr. Robert Zelkovsky. (Google Video; April 2, 2009)

Coverage

In the News

  • Research into sonofusion continues to attract attention - In 2002, nuclear engineers Rusi P. Taleyarkhan of Purdue University and Richard T. Lahey Jr. of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute announced that they had produced thermonuclear fusion by imploding tiny deuterium-rich gas bubbles with sound waves and neutrons. The news about their fusion method — dubbed sonofusion — made headlines worldwide. (Rensselaer Research Quarterly; Spring 2005)
  • Sonofusion Research Reactor Now Available from Impulse Devices - Using proprietary technology, the IDI reactor is a stainless steel sphere filled with heavy water and, at its center, a small bubble of deuterium (heavy hydrogen). Sound waves cause the bubble, first to expand greatly, followed by its collapse to a fraction of its original size, all at the rate of thousands of times a second. (SpaceWar; Dec. 14, 2004)
  • Sonofusion Claims in "Science" - Sonofusion (and sonoluminescence) is an area in which Infinite Energy has published since its inception in 1995. In fact, our first issue, March/April 1995, had Roger Stringham (now of First Gate Energies, Inc.) on the cover, cradling his sonofusion reactor. The cover story, "A 'Micro-Fusion' Reactor: Nuclear Reactions 'In the Cold' by Ultrasonic Cavitation," was by Tom Benson, Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 33-37. (Infinite Energy; March 2002)
  • First Gate Energies’ Sonofusion Reactor: Initial Validation at 50% Excess Heat - Success is especially sweet when one has been trying for a long time, without much success, to identify and develop a robust demonstration device for cold fusion phenomena— excess heat and nuclear effects. Such a device now appears to be close at hand in the sonofusion reactor of Roger Stringham and his colleagues at First Gate Energies. (Infinite Energy; March/April 2001)
