| Abstract: | Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) is one of the candidates to induce the nuclear fusions in solids, because d–d repulsions are screened by conduction electrons and deuterons can be condensed at defects in solids. In this work, d–d fusion rate in Pd induced by BEC is estimated. The equivalent linear two-body method, which is based on an approximate reduction of many-body problems by variational principle, is used for the calculation. Thomas–Fermi and nonlinear screening potentials are used as d–d interactions. |
