Comments on Summary of Condensed Matter Nuclear Science

Research involving investigations of the production of tritium in electrolytic cells was a topic that was recommended by the Energy Research Advisory Board(ERAB) report of the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) in November, 1989. Fifteen years later, the evolution of related research has proven that this was an important recommendation. In the talk, a selective resonant tunneling model is used to attempt to explain the initial discoveries of tritium production. Deuterium flux might play a key role for solving the problem of reproducibility. A further investigation is suggested, based on this model.
