Bob, In addition to gamma rays from those two daughters you mentioned, one must also include the branching intensity of radon itself. Often with high energy alpha decay, as in radon – the alpha is accompanied by a gamma ray which shares a fraction of the net energy released. The

I stand corrected. It appears that 214Bi and 214Pb are gamma emitters in the radon daughter chain. Most of the signatures are between 100keV and 1MeV with a few above. On Sat, Mar 5, 2016 at 9:29 AM, Jones Beene wrote: > Bob, > > > > All three radon isotopes have gamma

Bob, All three radon isotopes have gamma decay channels in addition to alpha. The signatures are well known (around 6 MeV). Radon detection is a cottage industry in silicon valley From: Bob Higgins Jeff's setup may be more sensitive to radon than Alan's. The NaI detector that

Jeff's setup may be more sensitive to radon than Alan's. The NaI detector that Alan used is only sensitive to gamma, and not beta. Radon decay chains are primarily alpha and beta emissions. With the foil wrapped around Jeff's GM detector, he probably does not have much alpha sensitivity, but he

Radiation seems to show up when the power is low... the pumping is below the threshold for the LENR reaction to fully establish itself. There is a sweet spot in the power applied that jeff might have hit where the LENR reaction is just about there but not quite there, MFMP sees this in their gamma

Jeff Morriss has just published a nice study showing radiation of 7x background. He did several things to verify (moving the detector, turning off the power to the cell, and so forth). It seems pretty convincing. I am unable to think of any alternative explanations. If it were me, I'd try 4
