Wow. Triple alpha tracks are a discovery. My first thought is that they might have some unusual radioactivity in their sample or lab, so a replication of this experiment is (obviously) in order.
One wonders why they haven't measured the neutron flux more, directly, though. They could locate a carbon sample further away, and look for the same track patterns there: some of the neutrons should go across.
