Reactivities for two-component fusion calculations
Abstract
Tables and graphs of fusion reactivities (broken bracket sigma v broken bracket) are readily available for fusion in thermalized (Maxwellian) plasma using common fuels. However, plans to construct the Two-Component Torus (TCT) have created a need for reactivities to characterize fusion via high-energy beams interacting with low-temperature target plasmas. Such reactivities are derived for a variety of fuels including D yields T, D yields He-3, D yields D, T yields T, T yields He-3, and p yields B-11. Some examples of the use of these reactivities in two-component calculations are also described.
