Jones,
The treatment given the Pd is designed to achieve a high composition. In
addition, the treatment would be expected to reduce crack formation.
Unfortunately, it is too bad that the studies have not included a
measurement of crack formation, especially in view of my work showing
the negative role of cracks. Nevertheless, they have had good success in
achieving high compositions and improved rates of heat production. Still
unanswered is what process is improved by the high composition.

The paper you quote is pure
speculation that has no basis
in reality.
I must say that the both the papers, and the visual
images of FF do not convey the same sense of trust of,
say, Stephen Hawking. Looks can be deceiving, however.
There are some good images of treating Pd in the issue
of NET below, and that info which should be of
particular interest to Horace is down in topic #11 on
ENEA Frascati.
This is a very well-equiped and impressive operation -
and some of the ways that they surface treat Pd are
shown.
