By comparing the system constants （k = AT//kP） in both nitrogen and deuterium atmosphere we found an optimum current （8 A） and a deuterium pressure （9 x 104 Pa） in which the system could release a maximum excess power （more than 80 W）. The reproducibility was 16/16 and the excess energy released in the longest experiment was about 300 MJ within 40 days, which was corresponding to 104 eV for each palladium atom. Analysis of the palladium surface with a SEM （scanning electron microscopy） and an EDS （energy dispersive spectrometer） revealed that some new surface topographical feature with concentrations of unexpected elements （such as Ag, Sn, Pb and Ca） appeared after the current triggering. The results implied that the excess heat might come from a nuclear transmutation.展开更多
