摘要
Theory is developed for dd fusion resulting from the impact of accelerated clusters of D2O on deuterated solid targets. Sequences of collisions between D atoms and heavy atoms of the beam and target are studied as a mechanism for quickly increasing the relative velocities of pairs of deuterons. Fusion yields are calculated as a sum over 10 such sequences. Calculated yields are many orders of magnitude smaller than the results reported by Beuhler, Friedlander, and Friedman. Implications of these differences are discussed. © 1991, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
