In particular, this paragraph seems to support my Balloon analogy for absorbing most of the high energy emissions into the lattice.
"...as in the Mossbauer effect, through a real effect, implicit in the symmetry associated with rigid lattice translations that preserve periodic order, it is possible for a lattice to “recoil” elastically, as a whole, in response to a collision at a point. In the generalization of band theory [19] to many-body, finite systems, the same symmetry is invoked and leads to a huge degeneracy. Because indistinguishable particles are involved in these systems, implicitly, additional degeneracies are also present. The combined effects provide a means for particles to have appreciable overlap at many, periodically displaced “points” (as discussed below), simultaneously, for finite periods of time, in a manner that can result in new forms of collisions in which momentum is transferred from the locations where overlap can occur, rigidly to the lattice as a whole. When these idealized forms of motion are initiated by collisions resulting from the overlap between d’s in IBS’s, they can result in forms of coupling that can cause nuclear fusion to take place in which small amounts of momentum and energy from many different locations are transferred coherently to the solid as a whole and subsequently transferred to many different particles in a cooperative fashion. As a consequence, in agreement with experiment, the associated nuclear energy is predicted to be released without high-energy particles.
