| Abstract: | The purpose of this study is to give a theoretical explanation for the mechanism of cold fusion. In the beginning, a Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) in solid is considered and introduced into our theory because deuterons are highly condensed at defects in some metals. Using the Kim–Zubarev theory, the wave function, the DD fusion rate of condensed deuterons in crystalline solid and critical temperature Tc of BEC are obtained. Furthermore, by solving the equations of thermal conduction, the temperature around the reaction center as a function of position and time is obtained. The calculated results show that temperature falls lower than Tc and leads to the initial temperature earlier than the inverse of the reaction rate. This means that continuous reactions do not produce any explosions. |
