One of the things not sampled in the Lugano experiment is the product gas or gas ash. This may have very important clues to the nature of the reaction. In my replication (under construction), I intend to be able to collect the product gas for analysis off-site. We could find enhanced deuterium, tritium, and helium as a result of the process. The HotCat was not outfitted to be able to collect this gas - when they opened it, they just had to let it go "woosh" into the air.
