For experiments that attempt to measure both heat and neutrons, there are hundreds of examples in which heat was detected but neutrons were not. I know of only a few examples when neutrons were detected but heat was not. In most cases when neutrons alone were detected, such as Takahashi, heat was also detected in the same run, only at different times. Both were intermittent. This could be caused by the relative insensitivity of the neutron detection techniques, or perhaps calorimetry interferes in neutron detection more than the other way around. - Jed
