Muonic molecular formation under laser irradiation and in the clustered ion molecule (The effect of protonium additive on the muon catalyzed fusion cycle)

Conference · · AIP Conf. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6433121

The fast resonance formation of the muonic molecule in muon-catalyzed fusion due to the shallow binding energy of (J = 1, v = 1) state produces more than 140 fusions per muon for a liquid hydrogen density DT target. By using laser radiation the resonance formation can be increased. In this paper the enhancement of the dt..mu.. formation rate by the strong laser irradiation is studied, taking into account the laser electron interaction. (AIP)
