Abstract:We carried out light water electrolysis with Pd cathode and Pt anode. The composition of both electrodes and the electrolytes were analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry to search for the evidence of the nuclear transmutation. In the light water electrolysis experiment, various elements have been observed on the metallic electrodes and in the solution after the electrolysis. In particular, amount of Pb increased remarkably after the electrolysis, and this result gave good reproducibility. There was no difference between the isotopic ratio of Pb detected and natural one.
