A New Quantization of Hadron System and Ultra-Low Energy Nuclear Fusion

Abstract

A new quantization is proposed for an energy-dependent particle exchange potential. The quantum number corresponds not only to the branch point of the potential cut, but also to the index of a long-range hadron potential. By using the long-range potential, an ultra-low energy nuclear (ULEN) reaction is investigated. It was found that a three-body Cs + H + H plasma in a Pd\(_{12}\) cage could be excited to \(1.36\times 10^{-4}\) eV \(\sim 300\) eV by an electric current where the long-range potential gives one or two order larger reaction probability than the others. A ULEN reaction was compared with the thermo-nuclear fusion by using well-known critical fusion constant defined by \(C_{high/low}\) = (a duration time) \(\times \) (a plasma density) \(\times \) (a temperature). We found that \(C_{low}\) is almost the same as \(C_{high}\) or more. We concluded that the ULEN synthesis could occur with a high-pressure hydrogen circumstance and a high-density CsH\(_2\)Pd\(_{12}\) cluster.
