Cold fusion (disambiguation)

Cold fusion is a hypothesized type of nuclear reaction that would occur at or near room temperature.

Cold fusion may also refer to:

In science

  • Muon-catalyzed fusion, before Fleischmann and Pons, was sometimes called cold fusion
  • Pyroelectric fusion, first achieved in 2005, uses a pyroelectric crystal to accelerate ions to fusion energies with room temperature equipment
  • Polywell fusion, uses inertial electrostatic confinement to attract and confine ions so densely that they fuse
  • Nuclear fusion where the product nuclei have a relatively low excitation energy of around 10 to 20 MeV (used with this definition mostly in the field of the synthesis of superheavy elements)

In culture

  • Cold Fusion (novel), 1996 novel by Lance Parkin, based on the sci-fi TV series Doctor Who
  • "Cold Fusion" (The Twilight Zone), an episode of the 2002 TV series
  • Cold Fusion (2001 film), a documentary film about skiing and snowboarding by Warren Miller
  • Cold Fusion (2011 film), a sci-fi film starring Adrian Paul and William Hope
