Computer Simulation of a Muon Catalyzed Fusion Experiment

将在TRIUMF实验室研究介子氢与氢、氘和氚的反应作为能量的函数。这些反应与介子催化核聚变有关。这个实验将首次把介子分子的形成从完整聚变周期中更复杂的过程中分离出来。截面和反应速率将使用蒙特卡罗技术获得，具体责任是开发蒙特卡罗计算机代码，该代码与目前的Gustavus Adolphus组有关。

Reactions of muonic hydrogen with hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium will be studied as a function of energy at the TRIUMF laboratory. These reactions are of relevance to muon catalyzed fusion. This experiment will isolate, for the first time, the formation of muonic molecules from the more complex processes present in the full fusion cycle. Cross sections and reaction rates will be obtained using Monte Carlo techniques, with specific responsibilities for developing the Monte Carlo computer codes resting with the present Gustavus Adolphus group.
