Vm. Bystritsky et Fm. Pen'Kov, Method for experimentally determining the features of nuclear fusion from mu-molecular resonance states, PHYS ATOM N, 62(2), 1999, pp. 281-290
Charge-asymmetric deuterium-helium muonic complexes (d mu He) have been stu
died. A method is proposed for experimentally determining the rates of nucl
ear fusion in the J = 0 and J = 1 states of d mu He molecules (J is the orb
ital angular momentum of the system) and the partial rates of the radiative
decays of the above complexes in those states. It is suggested that the co
rresponding experimental program will be performed at meson factories with
gas and cryogenic targets filled with a mixture of deuterium and helium.
