This paper reports on a search conducted for neutrons, protons, tritons, {sup 3}He ions, gamma rays, and ion-induced X-rays from deuterium-deuterium (D-D) fusion in cast (36-g), annealed (4-g), and cold-rolled (16-g) palladium specimens and a palladium hydrogen thermal valve (11 g) electrochemically charged with deuterium. The palladium cathodes were charged in an electrolytic cell (0.1 M LiOD (99.8% deuterium), platinum anode) at a current density of 25 mA/cm{sup 2} from 20 to 140 h.
