Hot fusion is difficult because of the high temperatures required, whereas cold fusion is more attainable and relies on nanoscopic particle sizes. The study proposes new theoretical relationships for cold fusion, aiming to calculate the moving particle radius, interparticle potential energy, and the collision speed needed to initiate fusion. The authors determine the radius of a moving elementary particle, compute the potential energy between adjacent particles, and calculate the necessary acceleration speed for collision. Dynamic nanoparticles were found to have dimensions significantly smaller than when at rest.
Hot fusion is currently a difficult goal to accomplish due to the high temperatures required, which are difficult to achieve and also to be maintained. For these reason, it is much easier to try to achieve cold fusion, or a combined method. In this paper, the author will briefly present some original relationships for setting up a theoretical model for cold fusion. It will be determined the radius of a moving elementary particle and will be calculated the potential energy of the two adjacent particles. In addition, the necessary speed of the accelerated particles when they will collide to start cold fusion will be determined. The radius of an electron or a nucleus at rest is close to nano sizes. Because of this, static, the fusion working with nanoparticles. It was evaluated that dynamic nanoparticles dimensions are much smaller than when they are at rest.
