1202.2669 (Koichi Hamaguchi et al.)

Stau-catalyzed d-t Nuclear Fusion    [PDF]

Koichi Hamaguchi, Tetsuo Hatsuda, Masayasu Kamimura, Tsutomu T. Yanagida
The gravitino of mass 10-100 GeV is a well motivated scenario in
supergravity. If the stau is the next lightest supersymmetry particle, its
life-time becomes order of $10^{6-8}$ sec. If it is the case the stau makes a
big impact on the nuclear fusion, since it is a charged particle. In this paper
we perform a detailed calculation of a stau-catalyzed d-t fusion. We find that
if certain technical conditions are satisfied, it is not hopeless to use the
nuclear fusion as a source of energy.
