Mmm, I doubt this, since the radiation doesn't
cross the film as they say quite explicitly in
the paper (in the two-sided film they find that
only the top emulsion is impressed).

Quotes:
"In order to achieve good resolution of the
image, the sample was kept very close to the
X-ray film. Standard medical X-ray film of medium grain size (10 to 15 ยต
m in diameter) on cellulose triacetate base was
used for this purpose. The exposure time used for
the deuterated samples varied from 18 hours to a
few days. At times a stack of several films was
used. In some cases films were placed on both sides of the sample.
. . .
The fact that the second film of a stack of films
exposed to the target also indicates similar
though less intense spots, rules out the
possibility of any kind of chemical reduction
reaction caused by the deuterium or hydrogen in
the target being responsible for causing the spots."
Some of the autoradiographs are beautiful. Here
is a scan of one of the titanium cathode x-rays:
