Abstract
In a recent Letter to PRL, Taleyarkhan and coauthors claim to observe DD fusion produced by acoustic cavitation. Among other evidence, they provide a proton recoil spectrum that they interpret as arising from 2.45 MeV DD fusion neutrons. My analysis concludes the spectrum is inconsistent with 2.45 MeV neutrons, cosmic background, or a PuBe source, but it is consistent with a Cf-252 source.
