The different mass-spectrometry and gamma spectrometry methods show, that low-energy nuclear reactions may be achieved by glow discharge (GD) support that leads to: numerous increase of additional elements from 10 to 1,000 times; shift of isotopic ratios; element transmutation and deviation from natural isotopic abundance during and after the GD experimental support within a timeframe of 3-5 months; weak gamma/X-ray emission after the experiment; alpha-, beta- and gamma emission enhanced when exposing the system to GD; heat effects were observed too. Gamma/X-ray spectrometry and thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) confirmed the decay of heavy isotopes (W, Ta) into the same but lighter isotopes for the same deuterium GD experiments. It allows the assumption that heavy isotopes decay in the process of low-energy nuclear reactions supported by glow discharge.
