I know that theory. What they found was a little bit of Tritium (Hydrogen with 2 neutrons). And a whole theory was developed around it.

Tritium glows. It is legally used in self-illuminated exit-signs. Buy here. And it is safer than radium, which was used to illuminate old clocks.

The mini-nuke theory is that this tritium was part of an atomic bomb. But it is missing all other elements. And the hydrogen-bomb needs to be started with a normal Uranium (or Plutonium) based atomic bomb. A nuclear reaction also causes gamma-rays and x-rays to most of the environment. Which leaves clear traces that can be spotted with (or in) our technology.

So it is either technology that we don't know about, like science fiction.
Or it is exit-signs and well known thermite of which we can see lots of evidence in the dust and remains.
