That would be evidence of hydrogen relaxing below the ground state. The probability of the formation of hydrinos in an ideal gas would be very low.. However, I think the probability might increase as the gas got cooler. This would be in contrast with the probability of fusion increasing as the temperature of the gas increased. Harry Harry
