Abstract
Fleischmann and Pons have reported the astonishing results of watts of power from cold deuteron fusion without large amounts of radiation. We present a scenario in which small numbers of free stable\(\bar u\bar u = Q\) anti-diquarks (electric charge of −4/3, mass of a few GeV, and short-range strong repulsion with hadrons) catalyze the deuteron fusion. The reaction channel4He+Q dominates. We predict bursts of neutrons with a 3-body energy spectrum. However, independently of the findings of these experiments, the Q catalysis is attractive in that it could provide large power production, with relatively low radioactivity, if this kind of matter is found and accumulated.
