Nuclear reactions in plasmas

Very interesting.
The figure 4 verifies me one apect I have figure out my self by observing thermosphere.

The number of ions is important. You can express this number also as a pressure.
As everything is finally only kinetic movement, the pressure in constant temperature means lower number of particles.

This low number is needed, that have time for the particles which are fusioning to rearrange to a stabile form.
My work is not yet so ordered, cause I don't have too much time to put in to it; but if interest, here is it;

Quote from Lou Pagnucco

By using laser-driven counter-streaming collisionless plasmas, we studied the fusion D+ D→n+ 3 He in a Gamow-like window around 27 keV.

Nice to see that also the classical physicists start to make more useful experiments. But as said: The experiment is classical and produces a lot of neutrons, we don't like to see and also tritium will be one of the results - we definitely don't like.
But if they can improve Gammov theory by adding something like an incident frequency term, then its certainly of some use!

Oh. wow. Thanks! I didn't even knew about this before;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…shortcoming_of_the_theory

But it's exactly my thought, and I added just only one new -and simple- aspect, and I got over the main shortcoming; that there isn't any "five" or "eight"!

I even wen't further, and made all too-short-lived "forbidden", like Di-proton or what ever having less than 1^-15 sec half life.

And I got the whole nuclesynthesis-chain to work. Up to Plutonium.
Well, there was few interesting things, like I even found an simple Idea to explain the isomer Tantalum-180-m1,
.. and other problematic isotopes like Na-22, Al-26, Mn-53, V-50.

Here's my working paper of the whole nucleosynthesis-chain;

And here's the text draft;
https://www.researchgate.net/p…ory_of_everything_-Chemie

So. the new aspect, is a simple rule of Newtonian collision;
If two objects of a same mass and velocity collide, the collision angle can be anything, and these two objects always continues to move in same direction with same velocity.
-> They remain "attached".

This means only nucleis with same Mass number can have fusion without excessive free neutron/proton produktion.

The Last aspect needed, is that the "Pressure" must be low. This simply means that the two particles requires a certain time to go through "transition" to really produce a stabile structure of the bundle of protons and neutrons which have found their way togehter. So in some time after the first collision, there can't be second collision, or the process is disturbed. -> low pressure is needed.

And this explains the wierd isotopes; if they decay through neutron capture during this transition time, the product is "wierd" I mean there is no way you can produce V-50 through a simple Gammov-theory. Cause it's surrounded by stabile isotopes.
