ABSTRACT. We report the results obtained by cavitating water solutions
of iron salts (Fe(Cl)3 and Fe(NO3)3) with different concentrations
at different ultrasound powers. In all cases we detected a
neutron radiation well higher than the background level. The neutron
production is perfectly reproducible and can at some extent be controlled.
These evidences for neutron emission generated by cavitation
support some preliminary clues for the possibility of piezonuclear reactions
(namely nuclear reactions induced by pressure and shock waves)
obtained in the last ten years. We have been able for the first time to
state some basic features of such a neutron emission induced by cavitation,
namely: 1) a marked threshold behavior in power, energy and
time; 2) its apparent occurring without a concomitant production of 
radiation.
(They used passive neutron detectors made by BTI.)
