DOE-EM issues draft RFP for Hanford lab work, awards WIPP monitoring grant
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management issued a draft request for proposals on June 25 for the Hanford Site’s 222-S Laboratory contract. The 222-S Laboratory is the primary on-site laboratory for analysis of highly radioactive samples in support of all projects at the DOE’s Hanford Site in Washington state.

Experimental reports continue to suggest that the crystalline solid state may present a unique environment for deuteron-deuteron (d-d) fusion at ambient temperature (cold fusion). The analysis herein shows that newly reported cluster-impact d-d fusion at energies ∼100 eV has much in common with coldfusion and might appropriately be called lukewarm fusion. Both phenomena evidently need a novel theoretical approach for their understanding. A deuteron effective mass approach is proposed as a possible explanation of the reported experimental results.
