Design of a 400 kV deep underground, high detector efficiency, high target density, high beam intensity accelerator facility
Thermonuclear reaction cross sections of astrophysical interest decrease exponentially with energy, approaching the level of femtobarn or less at the Gamow window. Experimental investigations of such small reaction rates in laboratories at the earth’s surface are hampered by the cosmic-ray backgroun...
