Abstract
Experimental study on muon catalyzed dtfusion in a triple mixture of hydrogen isotopes (H/D/T) was carried out at the JINR phasotron. The measurements have been performed at various temperatures and densities with liquid and gaseous H/D/T mixtures. Results are presented for the main characteristics of the dtμ cycle. A reduction of the number of dtfusions is observed when hydrogen is added to the D/T mixture, This is mainly due to muon loss to the ptand pdcycles, which have a high sticking probability. We also observe an increase of the cycle rate when the temperature of the H/D/T mixture rises. This confirms the theoretical prediction.
