The feasibility of measuring the nuclear reaction cross sections at energies of several KeV in a target under laser compression
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Abstract
The work proposes a straightforward method for determining the nuclear reaction cross sections at extremely low energies (E ≃ 1–100 keV) on the basis of the measurements of the relative yield of fast particles which are products of the nuclear reactions in a target under laser compression. On the other hand, the proposed method makes it possible to find the averaged form of the ion velocity distribution function if the low-energy behaviour of the respective cross sections is known.
