ANOMALOUS ISOTOPIC DISTRIBUTION IN PALLADIUM CATHODE AFTER ELECTROLYSIS 1 2 3 T. Mizuno , T.Ohmori , and M. Enyo ABSTRACT It was confirmed by several analytic methods that reaction products with mass number ranging from 20 to 28, 46 to 54, and 72 to 82 are produced in palladium cathodes subjected to electrolysis in a heavy water solution at high pressure, high temperature, and high current density for one month. Isotopic distributions were radically different from the natural ones. INTRODUCTION Nuclear reactions in a solid electrode at ordinary temperatures have been reported by many experimenters since 1989. However, this phenomenon is still not well accepted among researchers because of poor reproducibility and control. What is urgently needed now is to obtain precise and quantitative relationships between potential nuclear reactions and their corresponding reaction products. If nuclear reactions induced by electrochemical reaction occur in solid electrodes, there must be clear evidence such as the evolution of radioisotopes and radiation. Moreover, the evolution of the reaction products should be explained in terms of the nuclear mechanisms. In this work, evidence which indicates the occurrence of some nuclear reactions is presented, in the form of transmuted elements within the cathode and on the cathode surface. The anomalous isotopic distribution of these elements shows they do not come from contamination. For example, natural copper is 70% 63Cu, and 30% 65Cu. But the copper found in th
