Abstract
Calculations of the number of deuterium-tritium fusions a muon might catalyze in temperature and density conditions found in moderate fuel compressions are examined. Analytic models of muon catalyzed fusion reactions including muon sticking suggest that a deuterium-tritium fuel target with injected muons achieves an energetically viable number of fusions per muon only at fuel temperatures less than about 5 eV and fuel densities greater than 100 times LHD.
