Chemonuclear Transmutation and Noble Metal Synthesis

In the system of metallike hydride-electron donor mixtures, adsorbed hydrogen atoms are transformed into metallic states and alloyed. Dense itinerary s-electrons supplied by the electron donor cause a drop in the melting point of metallic hydrogen. As a result, this system reveals thermodynamical liquid activity. The coherent D2-D2 fusion and the D3-D3 chemonuclear fusion are enhanced with factors of 20 to 30 and 30 to 46 figures of magnitude respectively at T=460 K, hence the production of intense He ions of 23.8 MeV kinetic energy. The ions or alpha-particles induce enhanced cascade chemonuclear reactions towards diverse and useful element synthesis. This phenomenon is in the nature of the Big Bang nucleosynthesis that takes place in an inhomogeneous universe. An application of the alpha-induced chemonuclear reaction - i.e., the transmutation of 90Sr and 137Cs - is prescribed in this chapter. This system of metallike hydride-electron donor mixtures raises the possibility of radioactive waste vanishment. Stimulated by alpha-particle irradiation, trans-gold nuclei undergo exothermic alpha-cluster emissions, producing coherently line-up alpha-clusters. In the chemonuclear D-D fusion, the 4alpha-cluster reveals the thermodynamical activity of oxygen atoms. In the hydrogen-Ni nanopowder-Li mixtures, dispersively charged trans-gold atoms undergo enhanced chemonuclear alpha-cluster emissions, hence the mass synthesis of noble metals. The case of chemonuclear pion production is presented at the end of this chapter.

The Nature of the Chemonuclear Reaction

In the chemonuclear reaction, the bulk of itinerant s-electrons revealing thermodynamical liquid activity in metallic systems undergo contact interaction with atomic nuclei and nucleons, thereby inducing contagiously thermodynamical liquid activity among the bulk of nuclei towards the chemical potential minimum, hence the united spontaneous, irreversible atomic and nuclear reactions. The chemonuclear reaction is enhanced with astronomical figures beyond the enhancement of few particle processes (e.g., in the electron-screened pycnonuclear fusion). In the systems of metallike hydride/deuteride and electron donor mixtures, self-sustained H-H and D-D chemonuclear fusion reactions take place. Unforeseen phenomena are observed, e.g., radiationless fusion and gamma-ray missing positron annihilation. In addition, the coherent D2-D2 and D3-D3 fusion reactions take place with enhancement factors over 20 to 30 and 30 to 46 figures of magnitude respectively. Through electron density correction on the chemical potential of reactants, the enhancement of chemonuclear fusion approaches to that of enhanced pycnonuclear fusion in astrophysical condensed plasma in the white dwarf progenitors of supernovae. In essence, chemonuclear fusion in condensed matters revealing thermo-dynamical liquid activity is identical to enhanced pycnonuclear fusion in astrophysical condensed plasma.

Cyclotron Maser Cooling towards Coherent Particle Beams

This article presents a new particle beam cooling scheme, namely cyclotron maser cooling (CMC). Relativistic gyrating particles, forced by a solenoidal magnetic field over some length of their trajectory, move in a helical path and undergo emission or absorption of radiations stimulated by a resonance RF field. Theoretical and experimental investigations on electron beams indicate that when the action of the RF field exceeds a critical value the beam jumps abruptly to a coherent radiative system undergoing CMC in which most electrons are accumulated to a discrete energy with the same gyration phase. The mechanism of CMC was proved to be an elementary cooling process that is common to dissipative systems consisting of a driving field and oscillators with a stable energy. It leads to the generation of a coherent beam of particles that provides means to control miscellaneous particle induced reactions. For example, CMC electrons would generate coherent X-ray and gamma-ray photons through coherent inverse Compton scattering of laser radiation.

Super-enhanced Nuclear Fusion in Metal-like Systems and in Condensed Plasmas of Supernova Progenitors

In the scheme of chemonuclear reaction, bulk of itinerant s-electrons revealing the thermodynamical liquid activity in metallic systems undergo contact interaction with atomic nuclei and therein nucleons, inducing contagiously thermodynamical liquid activity among the bulk of nuclei under the irreversible action of Nature towards the chemical potential minimum resulting in the united spontaneous, irreversible atomic and nuclear reactions. The chemonuclear reaction, moreover, is enhanced with astronomical figures besides the enhancement of few particle processes (e.g., in the electron-screened pycnonuclear fusion). In the systems of metal-like hydride/deuteride and electron donor mixtures, self-sustained H-H and D-D chemonuclear fusion may take place. In these systems, however, some unforeseen phenomena are induced, e.g., radiation-less fusion and $γ$-ray missing positron annihilation.
