On March 2010 they correct it and say that isotopic ration of Cu is different from background. http://www.nyteknik.se/incoming/article3080659.ece/BINARY/Rossi- Focardi_paper.pdf



I see their paper has the same typo mine did, namely:

  p + e --> n + v'

which should read:

   p + e --> n + v

It is a natural mistake to make and overlook, partly because the reverse reaction creates an antineutrino.

The important statement referenced must be: "These allowed us the determination of the ratio Cu63/Cu65=1,6 different from the value (2,24) relative to the copper isotopic natural composition."

This shows an enrichment in Cu65 abundance over natural abundance.

The article seems to ignore the huge signatures of radioactive products that should be in the ash.
