… A di-deuterino molecule could contribute 1 D to the reaction, with the other
absorbing the reaction energy as kinetic energy. Deuterons are about 4000 more
massive than electrons, so one might expect very little of no bremsstrahlung.
Most of the kinetic energy would

Oops again. Where is Robin when we need him?
.
A. Mass of palladium-105 104.905 amu
B. Mass of deuteron 2.014 amu
C. Mass of silver-107 106.905 amu
Excess mass of fusion of A and B 14 amu or about 13 MeV
Oops. My bad.
Substituted the wrong values. Should never drink decaf.
Here is a corrected version, assuming there is no further mistake.
BTW – here are some numbers suggesting why there was no radiation signature
from the Pons cathode when it was producing excess heat from cold fusion.
A. Mas

As a point of historical reference, a cursory search was done wrt the isotope
Pd-105 and its relevance to cold fusion, which turns up many hits including a
very old and very provocative detail (patent application) – which only now is
coming to light via the Biberian disclosure. AFAIK this info

This has interesting graphs of coal use. The number of coal plants in
operation has fallen from 580 in 2010 to 350 today. CO2 emissions from the
U.S. power generating sector have fallen by 27% since 2005.
