A number of popular extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics predict the existence of doubly charged scalar particles . Such particles may be long lived or even stable. If they exist, could form atomic bound states with light nuclei and catalyze their fusion by essentially eliminating the Coulomb barrier between them. Such an -catalyzed fusion () process does not require high temperatures or pressure and may have important applications for energy production. A similar process of muon-catalyzed fusion has been shown not to be a viable source of energy because of the sticking of negative muons to helium nuclei produced in the fusion of hydrogen isotopes, which stops the catalytic process. We analyze in deuterium environments and show that the particles can only stick to nuclei, which are produced in the third-stage reactions downstream in the catalytic cycle. The corresponding sticking probability is very low and, before getting bound to , each particle can catalyze fusion cycles, producing of energy. We also discuss the ways of reactivating the particles from the Coulomb-bound () states, which would allow reusing them in reactions.

双电荷标量催化的核聚变:对能源生产的影响
粒子物理学标准模型的一些流行扩展预测了双电荷标量粒子的存在. 这样的粒子可能是长寿的,甚至是稳定的。如果它们存在,可以与轻核形成原子束缚态,并通过基本上消除它们之间的库仑势垒来催化它们的融合。这样一个-催化融合() 过程不需要高温或高压,可能对能源生产有重要应用。类似的介子催化聚变过程已被证明不是可行的能源来源,因为负介子粘附在氢同位素聚变中产生的氦核上,从而停止了催化过程。我们分析在氘环境中,并表明粒子只能粘在核,在催化循环下游的第三阶段反应中产生。相应的粘着概率非常低,并且在绑定之前, 每个粒子可以催化聚变循环,产生的能量。我们还讨论了重新激活来自库仑束缚的粒子() 状态,这将允许在反应。
