Low-energy nuclear reactions boosted by collisions with environment (Carambole collisions)
Low-energy nuclear reactions boosted by collisions with environment (Carambole collisions)
In conventional nuclear experiments a beam of accelerated nuclei collides with a target nucleus that is surrounded by other nuclei in a molecule, in condensed matter, or in a plasma environment. It is shown that for low collision energies possible nuclear reactions (including deuterium fusion) are strongly boosted by the …
