- 摘要：
- A novel method of initiating nuclear fusion reactions in a full plasma environment was suggested, and a proof-of-concept experiment was carried out with the D + D -> n + He-3 reaction. In this new approach, two plasma jets generated by high-intensity lasers collide head-on-head. The center-of-mass energy of the nuclei increases accordingly, and therefore, reaction products can be significantly enhanced, especially in the sub-Coulomb barrier ranges. As a result of the fusion reaction, up to similar to 7.6 x 10(5) neutrons had been observed. This new type of 'plasma collider' could provide an innovative tool to study nuclear reactions under astrophysical conditions.
