Pd has a large magnetic susceptibility and under an external field produces a considerably larger B internal magnetic field. The high B field reduces the allowable points a positively charged particle can occupy per the wave function describing those allowable positions. Thus the probability of finding two 2 charged particles at the same point increases.
If angular momentum can be conserved and a new coherent system of particles can exist at a lower potential energy and a new (higher) kinetic energy, the reaction happens. The coherent system for Pd is the crystal Pd lattice with D dissolved or otherwise contained within the interstitial fcc sites. 4 D’s react to form 2 He-4 nuclei in separate interstitial sites within the coherent crystal lattice. The coherent system is large enough to accept the new kinetic (phonic) energy without melting the crystal. No extra neutrons happen in this reactions unless a muon happens into a lattice site and causes a separate single fusion between 2 confined D’s or other H isotopes present.

Yet that "lack" is not accurate. As it turns out, 15 years ago Mizuno and others performed a defining experiment. Problem is... almost nobody quotes it today, or even knows about it. "Neutron emission from D2 gas in magnetic fields under low temperature" is the paper from 2004. Mizuno, Akimoto, Takahashi and Francesco Celani http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/MizunoTneutronemi.pdf Summary "We observed neutron emissions from pure deuterium gas after it was cooled in liquid nitrogen and placed in a magnetic field. Neutron emissions were observed in ten out of ten test cases. Neutron burst ... were 1000 times higher than the background counts....We observed a clear neutron energy peak at 2.5MeV." (indicates d-d nuclear fusion) Comment: why is this study not given the credit it deserves? The authors are top notch. The results are astounding. The experiment was partially replicated by Ahern at MIT. The neutron bursts align with cosmic ray bursts (which create muons which then catalyze fusion). The solenoid magnetic field of .8 T is large, but could be obtained using permanent magnets. This experiment begs to be replicated today using permanent magnets and a tiny muon source using laser irradiation.
