A method and apparatus for experimenting and testing cold fusion or other solid state nuclear reaction processes by means of achieving high pressures of solubilized light fusion elements in solid metal lattices from the gas phase. The apparatus uses an anode (70) and cathode (50) positioned in a chamber (12) receptive of the fusion element gases to produce controlled conditions compatible with postulated cold fusion for laboratory and reactor purposes. Two electrode (40) embodiments are disclosed for use in a glow discharge mode of operation. The electrodes (40) are thoroughly scrubbed of impurities by heating and sputtering prior to experimenting on cold fusion processes. The results of cold fusion experimentation are then monitored and controlled. |
