Low Energy Nuclear Reactions and Sub-Barrier Neutron Transfers
The problem of anomalous heat production by hydrogenated metals is analysed in the light of deep sub-barrier nucleon transfer reactions. Consideration of the phenomena of condensed matter low energy nuclear reactions and in-vacuum few-body nuclear transfer reactions suggests that LENRs could be due to interactions among the isotopes of hydrogen and certain metals. It is postulated that hydrogen...
متن کاملStochastic semi-classical description of sub-barrier fusion reactions
A semi-classical method that incorporates the quantum effects of the low-lying vibrational modes is applied to fusion reactions. The quantum effect is simulated by stochastic sampling of initial zero-point fluctuations of the surface modes. In this model, dissipation of the relative energy into non-collective excitations of nuclei can be included straightforwardly. The inclusion of dissipation ...
متن کاملStrong correlations in actinide redox reactions.
Reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions of the redox couples An(VI)/An(V), An(V)/An(IV), and An(IV)/An(III), where An is an element in the family of early actinides (U, Np, and Pu), as well as Am(VI)/Am(V) and Am(V)/Am(III), are modeled by combining density functional theory with a generalized Anderson impurity model that accounts for the strong correlations between the 5f electrons. Diagonalizat...
متن کاملContents of the section: Periodic reactions and quantum diffusion TRANSPORT CONSTITUTIVE RELATIONS, QUANTUM DIFFUSION AND PERIODIC REACTIONS
The present paper deals with an interesting problem, unresolved for more than 70 years, concerning class of diffusion-controlled periodic chemical reactions, where macroscopically observed diffusion action attains, with appreciable accuracy, the value of Planck’s quantum _. Starting from the classical Einstein–von Smoluchowski theory of Brownian movement and making use of a significant fact tha...
متن کاملAdiabatic quantum tunneling in heavy-ion sub-barrier fusion
High precision measurements of the fusion excitation functions for the reactions Ca + Pt, Os clearly demonstrate that projectile excitation significantly modifies the potential barrier distribution. In sharp contrast, fusion of O + Sm appears to show no influence of the projectile excitation on the shape of the barrier distribution. These apparently conflicting conclusions are reconciled in thi...
