Anomalous isotopic distribution of elements deposited on palladium induced by cathodic electrolysis

Abstract

It was confirmed by several analytic methods that reaction products with atomic number ranging from 20 to 28, 46 to 54, and 72 to 82 are detected in palladium cathodes subjected to elctrolysis in a heavy water solution at high pressure, high temperature and by high current density for one month. Isotopic distributions were radically different from the natural ones.
