Would the 'Ion implant' be that accurate since the hydrogen diffuses so rapidly through the target material?

There are certain lines of research that have been suggested that might be involved. But they are not, or are not clearly, direct investigation of the reactions, as implied by the article. They could, for example, be looking for the velocity distribution of deuterons in PdD, or investigating fusion cross-section in the low energy range and under confinement (Takahashi developed his theory from evidence from such bombardment, finding evidence for multibody reactions at 10^26 more frequently than naive expectation under plasma conditions). Or they might be looking for evidence of gamma screening from Widom-Larsen's "heavy electron patches." Or using "Ion implant" techniques (very common in Semiconductor rocesses) to get a very controlled loading.
