I see the experiment Bill Beaty participated in was reported by
poster at ICCF15. It would be nice see something more than an
abstract. Will something be published?

According to Richard Oriani, production of nuclear projectiles due to
electrolysis, using
his protocol (1), is highly reproducible. The Curie Project was
organized to verify this
claim. The electrolyte is a solution of Li2SO4 in light water. The
cathode is nickel and
the anode is platinum. Nuclear projectiles are detected with CR-39
chips (2,3,4,5)
protected from the electrolyte by a thin Mylar film. The work is in
progress. Preliminary
results confirm emission of nuclear projectiles, similar to alpha
particles. But the effect
does not seem to be reproducible.
