Abstract:Results of correct identification of energetic alpha and proton tracks, observed after hydrogen desorption from Pd/PdO:Hx samples, are presented. Using CR-39 plastic track detector we unambiguously identified tracks of as minimum two groups of alpha particles with energies 10–13 and 15–17.5 MeV. It was also confirmed the emission of protons with energies ~1.7–1.9 MeV.
