Description

We consider peculiarities of the formation of a coherent correlated state (CCS) of a low-energy particle under frequency modulation of parameters of a harmonic oscillator that contains this particle by a broadband nonmonochromatic or asymmetric pulsed action. It is shown that in the case of modulation with frequency-normalized intensity, the maximum efficiency of CCS formation corresponds to a narrow-band action, while broadband modulation is optimal for the action with a constant spectral density. As in the case of monochromatic modulation, the maximum correlation coefficient, |r|max, under the nonmonochromatic action corresponds to parametric resonance at frequency Ω ≈ 2ω0. Under a pulsed action, the maximum efficiency of CCS formation and, hence, the maximum probability of the tunnel effect, correspond to pulsed modulation with a short leading edge and a long trailing edge. In particular, under the action of a pulsed magnetic field with an amplitude of 10 kOe and the leading edge duration of 2 × 10–7 s on a gas with deuterium ions, a CCS can be formed with the correlation coefficient |r|max ≈ 0.9998, for which the tunneling effect probability under the dd interaction at temperature T ≈ 300–500 K increases from Dr=0 ≈ 10−80 to D|r|max=0.99980.1. This process can occur in a gas with particle number density n < ncr ≈ 1017 cm−3. The method of CCS formation makes it possible to explain the results of an experiment in which substantial isotope changes were detected when a pulsed electric current and magnetic-field generation occurred.
