On extended thermonuclear functions through pathway model
The major problem in the cosmological nucleosynthesis is the evaluation of the reaction rate. The present scenario is that the standard thermonuclear function in the Maxwell-Boltzmann form is evaluated by using various techniques.

Type Ia Supernova Explosion Models: Homogeneity versus Diversity [PDF]
Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) are generally believed to be the result of the thermonuclear disruption of Chandrasekhar-mass carbon-oxygen white dwarfs, mainly because such thermonuclear explosions can account for the right amount of Ni-56, which is needed ...

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 ...

Neutron time-of-flight measurements of charged-particle energy loss in inertial confinement fusion plasmas [PDF]
Neutron spectra from secondary ^{3}H(d,n)α reactions produced by an implosion of a deuterium-gas capsule at the National Ignition Facility have been measured with order-of-magnitude improvements in statistics and resolution over past experiments.

Testing 3D Printed Carbon Fiber Durability for Next‐Gen Fusion Reactors via Proton Irradiation
Schematic of proton irradiation effects on carbon fiber samples evaluated via nanoindentation and Raman spectroscopy. ABSTRACT Carbon fiber‐reinforced composites are promising candidates for plasma‐facing components (PFCs) in next‐generation fusion reactors due to their high strength‐to‐weight ratio, thermal stability, and radiation resistance. However,

Heat Transfer of Viscous MHD Nanofluid Flow in the Presence of Solar Radiation With Entropy
To satisfy the power needs of human beings without affecting the environment, scientists have been working on the efficient practices of renewable energy sources such as solar, water, and wind. As a source of energy resources, solar radiation is preferred because of its unlimited availability and low ecological impact.
