On further examination, Ken may be on to an important insight here which is relevant to LENR. Here is another reference with more detail.
“Single-Atom Catalysts: A New Frontier in Heterogeneous Catalysis” YANG, et al. When read in the context of the recently mentioned Szpak interview, where we see the highly credible report of 3 out of 10 meltdown events, using only plain water but with palladium chloride in the electrolyte – this makes me think that the magnetic field facilitated single atom palladium to first densify and accumulate, and then after 3-4 days to react in bulk. From: Ken Deboer … most recently JM Thomas (Nature 17 Sept 2015) showed that single atoms, of Pd especially, make better catalysts than nanoparticles. super catalysts, in fact. Now that you mention it – if you look back at Pd-D cold fusion, one of the most effective techniques is “co-dep” or co-deposition. In co-dep, palladium chloride is in the electrolyte, which means essentially that individual ions of palladium are present.
