First off, there's a difference between Bohr radius and the Covalent
radius:

Second, I can now tell you that I am Terry Blanton since my boss is
under the knife for an aortal valve replacement and will likely not see
these posts. I had to go under cover because an irate AA who had
worked with me on some CF projects revealed all when she was released.
(She had all the Vortex posts on her computer.) My boss chastised me
for spending too much time trying to save his grandchildren (energy).
In case you don't recognize the name, we looked at a lot of 3D Mars
blue berries. <g>
Regarding your AEH, I am over 1/3 through it and agree with many
aspects. I have always believed ionization in general could be ou. Do
you think H2 is dissociated *and* ionized in electrolysis? BTW, I can
find no information on the web which tells me if it is molecular,
atomic, or ionized H that is deposited in Pd.
My data is on my office computer. It is damned hard to find the unit
cell length of Pd!! I have a NRL report which shows 4% swelling of the
Pd lattice during hydridization (made that word up!). I'll give you
those refs tomorrow.

It does seem to me that if your data shown above is assumed then there
is no way to account for the lattice swelling that occurs prior to full
loading, and it would be difficult to account for diffusion rate
observations. The hydrogen would go through the lattice like food
through a goose.
It would be good to find some reliable data.
