Reaction of deuteron with a heavy nucleus at low energies
Pankaj Jain, Harishyam Kumar, K. Ramkumar
We extend the recently proposed mechanism for inducing low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) to compute the reaction rate of deuteron with a heavy nucleus. The process gets dominant…

Low Energy Nuclear Reactions Through Weak Interactions
K. Ramkumar, Harishyam Kumar, Pankaj Jain
We consider the possibility that low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) arise due to the conversion of proton to neutron through weak interactions. The resulting neutron forms a short…
