Study of cold nuclear fusion with electrolysis at low-temperature range

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

We carried out an electrolysis by changing the temperature from −80°C to room temperature in order to create a dynamic condition in the electrode. No neutron emission was observed from the palladium and the titanium electrodes in counting intervals from 28.6 ms to 267 h. The upper limit on neutron emission we obtained in palladium was 3.1·10−24 counts/d-d pairs/s for the counting interval of 124 h at 99.7% confidence level.
