Muon catalysed fusion: the present status
Description
The present status of muon catalysed fusion is reviewed. Starting with the description of characteristics of muon, the physics of the negative muons in matter and the physics of the process of fusion catalysed by muons are discussed. The dynamics of the reactions and associated physics after the fusion act are considered. Utilization prospects and the experimental status of this phenomenon are discussed.
