Abstract

A general coherent control scheme for speeding up quantum tunneling of proton transfer through Coulombic barriers is analysed. The quantum control scenario is based on repetitive electron impact ionization pulses that affect the ensuing interference phenomena responsible for quantum dynamics and force the proton to tunnel into classically forbidden regions of configuration space. The scheme is demonstrated for the simplest model of nuclear fusion, hinting at the possible enhancement of reactive scattering based on low energy collisions.
