It's more accurate to say that the this is a paper on the experimental setup with which they claim to have achieved low temperature Ni-H fusion.

A plausible mechanism for the supposed fusion itself has yet to make an appearance.

There actually is a theory that seems to have some credibility: http://nextbigfuture.com/2011/05/nasa-confirms-widom-larsen-...

According to the theory, it's not actually fusion, it's some kind of new reaction involving the weak nuclear force. (Rossi's not a fan of the idea.)
