Abstract
In an attempt to study the claim of deuterium-deuterium fusions result ing from redox reactions involving deuterium, it has been discovered t hat in the control reaction D+ + H- --> HD (where the reaction takes p lace in a condensed phase, either homogeneously or heterogeneously), a compound is formed that can reduce the neutron background count rate by an amount higher than that produced by the most efficient neutron a bsorbers.
