Muon-catalyzed fusion
Corrected an egregious physics error in the introduction--ever since Jackson's pioneering work in 1957 it has been known that the 2 microsecond half-life of muons is irrelevant!

Muon-catalyzed fusion
Corrected the physics of how and why each muon can only catalyze a few hundred nuclear fusion reactions without going into unnecessary details about the "alpha-sticking" problem.

Muon-catalyzed fusion
Withdrew the assertion that "cool fusion" would be a better name "for obvious reasons" since there was no citation for such a claim, an objection that's ridiculous, by the way!

Since I've cleaned this page up and added plentiful references and citations to original sources, I've removed both the "clean up" and the "unreferenced" tags, and made a few minor stylistic edits.

In an effort to slim the body of the article down significantly and to make it more readily readable, I've relegated most of the tangential asides to the footnotes.

Muon-catalyzed fusion
Moved some of the interesting, but less essential, commentary to references and notes section to improve the flow of the article; also repaired some of the edits made by others!
