Abstract

We present a theoretical study of the processes d(d,p)^{3}H and d(d,n)^{3}He at energies of interest for energy production and for big-bang nucleosynthesis. We accurately solve the four body scattering problem using the abinitio hyperspherical harmonics method, starting from nuclear Hamiltonians which include modern two- and three-nucleon interactions, derived in chiral effective field theory. We report results for the astrophysical S factor, the quintet suppression factor, and various single and double polarized observables. A first estimate of the theoretical uncertainty for all these quantities is provided by varying the cutoff parameter used to regularize the chiral interactions at high momentum.
