Eugene F. Mallove (June 9, 1947 - May 14, 2004) was the publisher and editor of the science magazine Infinite Energy, founder and President of the non-profit New Energy Foundation,a strong proponent of cold fusion and the science and technology of massfree energy or Aether energy (also called 'vacuum energy' and mistakenly confused with zero-point energy), and an active supporter of research into alternative-energy systems.
Dr. Mallove authored the Pulitzer Prize nominated Fire from Ice, a book detailing the 1989 report of table-top cold fusion from Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann at the University of Utah. Among other things, he claims the team did produce "greater-than-unity" output energy in an experiment successfully replicated on several occasions, but that the results were suppressed through an organized campaign of ridicule from mainstream physicists and hot fusioneers trying to protect their research and funding.
Dr. Mallove held a B.S. and M.S. in aeronautics and astronomy from the MIT and a Ph.D in environmental health sciences from Harvard University. He had worked for technology engineering firms such as Hughes Research Laboratories, the Analytic Science Corporation, and MIT's Lincoln Laboratory, and he consulted in research and development of new energies.
Dr. Mallove was the first scientist to confirm the reproduction and subsequent improvement of Dr. W. Reich's Orgone Motor by Dr. Paulo Correa and Alexandra Correa, and the first scientist to confirm the existence of the anomalous evolution of heat in the Reich-Einstein experiment replicated by the Correas. He was among the scientists and engineers who confirmed the output of excess electric energy from tuned pulsed plasmas in vacuum arc discharges.
Dr. Mallove was an intimate collaborator of the Correas, an active member of the Aurora Biophysics Research Institute, one of the founders of the International Society of the Friends of Aetherometry, a member of its Organizing Committee, a co-inventor of the HYBORAC technology and the main evaluator of ABRI technologies.
He was a frequent guest on the American radio program Coast-to-Coast AM because of his work with unorthodox energy sources.
Dr. Mallove taught science journalism at MIT and Boston University and was chief science writer at MIT's news office. He was a top science writer and broadcaster with the Voice of America radio service and author of three science books: The Quickening Universe: Cosmic Evolution and Human Destiny (1987, St. Martin’s Press), The Starflight Handbook: A Pioneer’s Guide to Interstellar Travel (1989, John Wiley & Sons, with co-author Dr. Gregory Matloff), and the above-noted Fire from Ice: Searching for the Truth Behind the Cold Fusion Furor (1991, John Wiley & Sons). He also published articles for MIT Technology Review, the Washington Post, the New York Times, Popular Science, Wired Magazine, the (now defunct) in-flight magazine TWA Ambassador, and New Hampshire Magazine.
Mallove was murdered May 14, 2004 in Norwich, Connecticut, while cleaning a recently vacated rental property owned by his parents, the home he grew up in. Police suspect robbery was the motive, although Mallove's role in the contentious history of cold fusion has resulted in some conspiracy theories about the killing. In 2005, on the first anniversary of the killing, police asked for help from Henry Lee, a high-profile forensic expert who has worked on cases of national renown.
