‘Colliding beam’ enhancement mechanism of deuteron–deuteron fusion reactions in matter

‘Colliding beam’ enhancement mechanism of deuteron–deuteron fusion reactions in matter

We consider a 'ping-pong' mechanism of enhancement for fusion reactions between a low-energy external deuteron beam and the deuterons in a condensed matter or molecular target. This would effectively convert the fixed target process into a colliding beam reaction. In a limiting case this reduces the negative penetrability exponent by …
