Quantum-tail effect in low energy d+d reaction in deuterated metals
arXiv:nucl-th/0401043 · doi:10.1016/j.physa.2004.04.045
Abstract
The Bochum experimental enhancement of the d+d fusion rate in a deuterated metal matrix at low incident energies is explained by the quantum broadening of the momentum-energy dispersion relation and consequent modification of the high-momentum tail of the distribution function from an exponential to a power-law.
