Key Points

  • Reduction in the Coulomb barrier tunneling exponent from ~2800 to ~23.4 has potential applications in nuclear fusion.
  • This analysis presents a tunneling probability enhancement of 10⁷-10⁹×, indicating feasibility in engineered environments.
  • Theoretical framework supports the implications of lattice-confined phonon-enhanced quantum tunneling in nuclear fusion systems.
  • Significance lies in bridging condensed matter and nuclear physics through novel mechanisms of quantum tunneling.

Abstract

We propose a novel mechanism called Lattice-Confined Phonon-Enhanced Quantum Tunneling (LCPEQT), that combines three established quantum phenomena to enable nuclear fusion at approximately 100°C in engineered metal hydride lattices. By using enhanced electron screening in metallic environments, coherent phonon-mediated energy transfer, and lattice-confined quantum tunneling, we predicted a reduction in the Coulomb barrier tunneling exponent from ~2800 (essentially impossible) to ~23.4 (measurable). This represents a 10⁷-10⁹× enhancement in tunneling probability while respecting fundamental physics principles. We present the theoretical framework, detailed experimental protocols, and testable predictions for validating or falsifying this hypothesis. This work bridges condensed matter physics, nuclear physics, and materials science to explore fundamental limits of quantum tunneling in confined system. only visualization guide is made using taking help of ai .
