The role of electron-screening deformations in solar nuclear fusion reactions and the solar neutrino puzzle [PDF]
Thermonuclear fusion reaction rates in the solar plasma are enhanced by the presence of the electron cloud that screens fusing nuclei. The present work studies the influence of electron screening deformations on solar reaction rates in the framework of ...

Achieving Anti-Disproportionation Performance Enhancement and Distorted Inverse-Disproportionation Reaction Correction of Zr<sub>2</sub>Fe-Based Hydrogen Isotope Storage Alloys via Element Substitution. [PDF]
Undesirable phase transition behavior and anti‐disproportionation performance limit the hydrogen isotope storage of Zr2Fe alloy. With theoretical screening and experiments, partial Cu/Ni substitutions achieve full reversibility and significantly improve anti‐disproportionation properties.

Important problems of future thermonuclear reactors*
This paper concerns important and difficult problems connected with a design and construction of thermonuclear reactors, which have to use nuclear fusion reactions of heavy isotopes of hydrogen, i.e., deuterium (D) and tritium (T).

Non-linear screening corrections of stellar nuclear reaction rates and their effects on solar neutrino fluxes [PDF]
Non-linear electron screening corrections of stellar nuclear fusion rates are calculated analytically in the framework of the Debye-Huckel model and compared with the respective ones of Salpeter's weak screening approximation. In typical solar conditions,
