Lewis, N.S., et al., Searches for low-temperature nuclear fusion of
deuterium in palladium. Nature (London), 1989. 340(6234): p. 525

Well, it was more a report on Lewis' own work. It was a pretty good paper
except of the conclusion. I learned a lot from it. It had a lot of valid
information about what can go wrong with calorimetry. I can't upload it,
but I wrote about it here, and you can get the gist of it:

Beaudette discussed this in detail in a chapter at the end of the book.

I guess this refers to:

Morrison, D.R.O., Comments on claims of excess enthalpy by Fleischmann and
Pons using simple cells made to boil. Phys. Lett. A, 1994. 185: p. 498
