Search for neutrons from 'cold nuclear fission'

Description

We have searched for neutrons from a Pd-electrode loaded with deuterium in electrolysis setups similar to those of Fleischmann and Pons and Jones et al. Within the sensitivity of our neutron detection system corresponding to a neutron source strength of 5x10-2 neutrons/s we did not find any neutrons due to 'cold nuclear fusion'. We emphasize the necessity of using several independent neutron detectors. (orig.)
