On the role of deformed Coulomb potential in fusion using energy density formalism

Abstract

Using the Skyrme energy density formalism, the effect of deformed Coulomb potential on fusion barriers and fusion cross-sections is studied. Our detailed study reveals that the fusion barriers as well as fusion probabilities depend on the shape deformation (due to deformed Coulomb potential) of the colliding nuclei. However, this dependence due to deformed Coulomb potential is found to be very weak.

“…With the rapid development of technology and economy after the industrial revolution, environmental pollution and energy shortage have gradually been exposed to the public and become a problem that cannot be ignored and urgently needs to be solved in various countries. , In the past few decades, people have tried to replace nonrenewable fossil fuels with new energy sources, such as wind energy, geothermal energy, ocean energy, and nuclear fusion energy. − The common problems of these methods are high cost, immature technology, and secondary pollution. Solar energy as the largest source of energy is inexhaustible, and thus the splitting of water into clean hydrogen energy by solar energy has recently been widely concerned. − The development of semiconductor photocatalysts with high efficiency and low cost is the key to realize solar-driven photocatalytic water splitting. − …”
