A note on the quantum-tail effect on fusion reaction rate

Astrophysics 2008-05-29 v1

Abstract

A study is made of the power-law tail effect in the quantum particle distribution over momentum on the nuclear fusion reactions. Our results do not support the idea of averaging the fusion reaction cross-section over the momentum distribution postulated and used in many publications.
