Experimental Evidence of a Variant Neutron Spectrum from the Reaction at Center-of-Mass Energies in the Range of 16–50 keV Open
Full calculations of six-nucleon reactions with a three-body final state have been elusive and a long-standing issue. We present neutron spectra from the T(t,2n)α (TT) reaction measured in inertial confinement fusion experiments at the OME…

Proton Spectra from and Fusion at Low Center-of-Mass Energy, with Potential Implications for Solar Fusion Cross Sections Open
Few-body nuclear physics often relies upon phenomenological models, with new efforts at the ab initio theory reported recently; both need high-quality benchmark data, particularly at low center-of-mass energies. We use high-energy-density …
