Possible nuclear fusion of deuteron in the cores of Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, and brown dwarfs
Many brown dwarfs have recently been discovered as sub-stellar objects in which deuteron thermonuclear fusion is taking place. Although Jupiter and Saturn emit nearly twice as much heat as they absorb from the Sun, their internal heat-generation ...

Formation of the BeH+ and BeD+ Molecules in Be+ + H/D Collisions Through Radiative Association
Cross sections and rate coefficients for the formation of BeH+ and BeD+ molecules in Be+ + H/D collisions through radiative association are calculated using quantum mechanical perturbation theory and Breit-Wigner theory.

Laser-driven Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) relies on the use of high-energy laser beams to compress and ignite a thermonuclear fuel with the ultimate goal of producing energy. Fusion is the holy grail of energy sources–combining abundant fuel with no

Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Physical design of fusion target with edge computing
The physical design of the fusion target is an important part of controlled thermonuclear fusion, and the geometric model and material selection of the target is also critical to achieving fusion ignition.

Abstract The high voltage Padova test facility (HVPTF) is an experiment set in Padova, Italy, operating in the framework of the Neutral Beam Test Facility project of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). One of the purposes of HVPTF is to study the phenomenology of discharge events occurring between electrodes at high voltage ...

Abstract We introduce a fast and invertible approximation for fusion plasma simulation data represented as 2D planar meshes with connectivities approximating magnetic field lines along the toroidal dimension in deformed 3D toroidal spaces. Scientific variables (e.g., density and temperature) in these fusion data are interpolated following a complex ...

Solar Cycle Detected in Natural Tritium of Ice Layers Before the Nuclear Era
Abstract The 11‐year cycle of the solar activity affects the production rate of cosmogenic isotopes. For tritium in precipitation, it has been just recently proven that this link exists. Here we show, for the first time, a tritium ice core time series which extends back to 1923, covering a time period that avoids the presence of artificial tritium from
