Might I make a suggestion? Since diamond possesses pyroelectric properties some pyroelectric fusion events might be expected on increasing or decreasing the temperature in the LION experiment. Seth Puttermann's group published a paper on pyroelectric fusion using Ca titanate crystal to accelerate D ions with keV fields to fuse with target D ions, releasing measurable neutrons in Nature in 2005 (but was observed previously by some Russian scientists, I think). Anyway its not known whether this could also occur on the nanoscale level, in diamond crystals the size used in the LION experiments, but it is a possibility. This could account for neutron tracks, high temperature localized Ni spheres and the other strange structures Bob Greenyer observed in the SEMs in LION2.
So on raising the temperature at the beginning of the test run there should be a pyroelectric fusion based rise in neutron count (could this be the "strange radiation"), then cycling the temperature up and down should lead to correlated bursts on the rising and falling phases. This was (partially) observed in Alan Smith & Co's replication. Allowing the temperature to drop at the end of the experiment would also release neutron radiation, as found. Surely all we have to do now is engineer the diamond/Ni nanostucture to optimize the diamond D acceleration sites with the Ni lattice D target sites? Play around with other Pyroelectric Stuff like tourmaline/quartz/magnetite/titanates/perovskites and Bob's your uncle we might have a cold fusion system that actually works repeatably for once! -and a PS, the pyroelectric crystals are also usually ferroelectric too-so the fusion reaction could theoretically be maintained by applying a powerful AC electric field. Hopefully somewhere along this process we'll generate energy in the form of excess heat!
There is not fusion going on in cold fusion. The reaction is more properly described as elemental rearrangement.

A deuterium entity is created in the month long soak of the diamond that remains dormant until that entity is activated by heating. That entity is called the active agent (AA). When active, the AA move inside the diamond and consumes the diamond leaving a cavity inside the diamond. When deactivated, the AA deposits a residual ash at the farthermost extent of the excavation. All AA entries move when activated. All AA that has been activated excavate a cavity and when the AA deactivate they all deposit the identical ash at the farthermost extent of their particular excavations.
There was three separate instances of AA activation, each activation period resulted in the same process with the exception that the ash deposited was all the same and was made up from a differing elemental composition as compared to the last episode from the previous activation cycle.
