People should pay more attention to this.
I added two more papers about it. See Section B, here:

There are some interesting comments about this
work in Russ George's interview of Srinivasan
(http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/GeorgeRthecoldfus.pdf):
". . . So we made fresh [Ti] targets, and we
looked at them on X-ray film and we saw
beautiful spots. And the same thing, placed in
front of our germanium detector, gave us K-alpha
4.5 keV and K-beta 4.9 keV peaks, a clear signal of tritium in the material.
. . . Finally, we were able to show that four out
of 1000 chips had very high activity at the microcuries level.
Those chips are still preserved by us and they
still give this signal. For instance, when
Douglas Morrison visited us at the time around
August 1990, I showed him that. The moment we
loaded one of those chips into the detector, the
count rate indicated a very high level of
activity, giving a beautiful beta [electron
energy] spectrum. I showed him this beta
spectrum, and asked him to speculate as to where
it could come from. I even gave him copies of the
spectrum. He has never talked about it anywhere,
or mentioned it in any of his writings."
