Can Deuterium Formation Be Measured?
Abstract
The fundamental PP reaction has never been attempted in the laboratory as theory states it cannot be measured within the human life span. This forms the foundation of stellar nucleosynthesis and the standard solar model. Yet numerous observations including the Sun's obvious variability argue the theory is flawed and the reaction occurs in times many orders of magnitude shorter than prediction. Considering the consequence to accepted models and controlled fusion, testing is warranted.
