You can do better with a Farnsworth Fusor.
Or better with a real cat!

This is about the same neutron flux that every passenger on a Jet is exposed
to.
IOW - it means there is a low grade nuclear reaction - probably neutron
stripping and that is the good news, but the energy content is absurdly
low. I suspect they are a factor of 10^7 away from breakeven.
Maybe purrratio relates to the energy content of a cat's purr. You can do
better with a Farnsworth Fusor.
A neutron detector was installed in about 1m distance from the plasma to
detect neutrons. As detector a commercially available instrument from
Berthold Technologies LB 123 with a read out electronic LB 6411 was used.
The detector measures a constant back-ground radiation of about 0,010uSv/h
without plasma jet operation. At appropriate experimental conditions a
neutron signal of 3uSv/h can be generated during burning of the plasma in
95% D2O vapour.
