Abstract
Nuclear fusion reactions in hydrogen-lithium muonic molecules, h mu(6, 7)Li (where h = p, d, t) are considered and fusion rates from rotation al states J = 0 of the molecules are presented. Results obtained depen d on the isotopic composition of the molecules and range between 10(3) s(-1) and 10(7)s(-1). The upper limit for fusion rates from rotationa l states J = 0 of hydrogen-helium muonic molecules, d mu(3,4)He and t mu(3.4)He, equal 10(6) s(-1), is also found.
