Measurement of two products of a fusion reaction in coincidence is proposed. Possible detector arrays and sample count rates have been evaluated for reactions in the Fontenay-aux-Roses tokamak (TFR) and the Texas experimental tokamak (TEXT) and in the tokamak fusion test reactor (TFTR) neutral beam lines. The count rates indicate that this method is feasible on existing devices.
