Furthermore, consider the fusion process: d + d --> He + gamma When deuterium fuses in a vacuum the wavelength of resulting gamma radiation is relatively short. If deuterium is able fuse in a Pd matrix because it periodically experiences a charge reduction (not charge shielding) the wavelength of the radiation will be longer. If a CF cell produces longer wavelength emissions, it might be evidence that subatomic charge is variable (not conserved) in some contexts. Harry
