Abstract

All available data of the mirror fusion reactions D(d, n)3He and D(d, p)3H have been subjected to a new analysis in order to extract the matrix elements of all 16 transitions necessary for inclusion of alll≤2 waves. Their energy dependence was assumed to be governed solely by Coulomb penetrabilities. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was used to fit all experimental data. The experimental data are reproduced satisfactorily. The results compare well with anR-matrix analysis and with refined resonating group calculations. No suppression of quintet entrance-state transitions and therefore no neutron suppression in “polarized fusion” can be derived from this analysis.
