Description

New developments on the field of catalyzed nuclear fusion processes are presented in particular the one in the Soviet Union. The author discusses the possibility of muon-catalyzed chain reactions in cold hydrogen as well as the suggestion, to use the muonic catalysis in connection with laser fusion. He also deals with the speculations on the existence of new stable particles and their significance for the fusion catalysis. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Neue Entwicklungen, insbesondere in der Sowjetunion, auf dem Gebiet der katalysierten Kernfusionsprozesse werden dargestellt. Wir eroertern die Moeglichkeit mueon-katalysierter Kettenreaktionen in kaltem Wasserstoff sowie Vorschlaege, die mueonische Katalyse in Kombination mit Laserfusion zu nutzen, und gehen auch auf die Spekulationen ueber die Existenz neuer stabiler Teilchen und deren Bedeutung fuer die Fusionskatalyse ein.
