CR-39 plastic detector chips suspended in the vapor over the electrolytic solution during electrolysis record the tracks of highly energetic charged particles. The probability that the track densities found in these detector chips and the generally smaller track densities found in controls belong to a common population is 3 × 10-10 by the Mann-Whitney statistical test. It is therefore concluded that a nuclear reaction that originates in the vapor phase can accompany electrolysis. Occasionally huge numbers of nuclear tracks are recorded by detector chips in the vapor over active electrolysis cells. One such experiment is analyzed in which two contiguous detector chips recorded approximately 40,000 tracks. Analysis of track orientations shows that the shower of charged particles originated in a compact source in the vapor between the chips at about 2 mm from one of the chips. A new type of nuclear reaction is indicated.
