Detailed Description

Muon-catalyzed fusion of \( (dd)_\mu \) molecules.

Fusion channels:

• \( ^3\text{He} + \mu + n \)
• \( (^3\text{He})_\mu + n \)
• \( t + \mu + p \)

The mass ratios between \( ^3\text{He} \) and the neutron, and between tritium and the proton, are both about 3:1. This leads to the neutron and proton kinetic energies being 3/4 of the total kinetic energy available in their respective channels.

Note

This interactor has a similar implementation as DTMucfInteractor , where energy is not fully conserved. See its documentation for details.
