That paper from RNBE 2016 (above) is very interesting
It was a one-off mini-explosion..apparently Didier Grass after several years thought it might be
caused by LENR

Is ther any relation with "cathodic sputtering" ?
Didier Gras observed an extreme reaction that looks like a LENR burst with ZrO2 powder cathodic sputtered with Ni (0.1µm), then electrolysed as cathode (with Ni anode) with nickel sulfamate
Another key idea seems that he used a setup similar to "hollow cathode" , said to enforce higher than normal compression of deposited Ni...(I don't understand well what it means)
