Let me add my speculation to the collection of explanations sure to
follow. I propose the CaO layer forces the thin Pd layer to form
cracks when D is added to the Pd, which creates the NAE in which the
transmutation reaction occurs. The D-D fusion reaction also takes
place in the crack and the mechanism releasing energy from this
reaction also releases mass-energy from the transmutation reaction.
You heard it first here. The proof will come later.

OBSERVATION OF NUCLEAR TRANSMUTATION REACTIONS INDUCED BY D2 GAS
PERMEATION THROUGH PD COMPLEXES
Excerpt:
At present the authors do not have definite explanation for the role
of the CaO layers. We cannot perfectly exclude out the possibility
that CaO layers modified the electronic state of top Pd layer.
This experiment might well demonstrate the nanoplasmonic cause of
LENR.
The nanoscopic layer of calcium oxide will confine EMF concentrated
by 70C heat photons in the transition region between the metallic
conductive layer of Pd and the dielectric layer of CaO.
This EMF confinement will produce strong magnetic fields at the
surface of the Pd causing transmutation of elements Ba, Cs, Sr into
elements with higher atomic numbers through hydrogen fusion as
follows: Cs into Pr, Sr into Mo, and Ba into Sm.
The surface of the Pd in the interface layer with the deuterium
should be tested for a magnetic field using Hall Nano probes to
verify the existence of anomalous electromagnetic conditions at the
Pd to D2 interface layer.
Merry Christmas to all
