This is apparently a test of the Widom-Larsen theory. This theory
seems to be the vampire of LENR theories - it can not be killed.
Neutrons have been known not be be involved in LENR since 1990 after
hundreds of attempts were made to detect the required number of
neutrons with no success. The very few neutrons that are detected can
be explained to result from fractofusion, a hot fusion process.

Description
After an introduction to the controversial problem of Low Energy
Nuclear Reactions (LENR) catalyzed by neutrons on metallic hydride
surfaces we present the results of an experiment, made in
collaboration with ENEA Labs in Frascati, to search neutrons from
plasma discharges in electrolytic cells.
The negative outcome of our experiment goes in the direction of
ruling out those theoretical models expecting LENR to occur in
condensed matter systems under specific conditions.
Our criticism on the theoretical foundations of such models will
also be presented.
