Neutron Production Rates by Inverse-Beta Decay in Fully Ionized Plasmas

Abstract
Recently we showed that the nuclear transmutation rates are largely overestimated in the Widom-Larsen theory of the so called `Low Energy Nuclear Reactions'. Here we show that unbound plasma electrons are even less likely to initiate nuclear transmutations.
