For interpreting fusion rate measurements in present fusion experiments and predicting the fusion performance of future devices or of d-t experiments in present devices, it is important to know the fusion cross-sections as precisely as possible. Usually, it is not measured data that are used, but parametrizations of the cross-section as a function of the ion energy and parametrizations of the Maxwellian reactivity as a function of the ion-temperature. Since the publication of the…

TLDR
First-principles predictions of the enhanced DT fusion rate are reported using chiral effective field theory and ab initio calculations, which accurately determine the enhanced fusion rate and angular distribution of the emitted neutron and 4He.
