Ø Ø Jones, you seem to suggest that the muons carry the excess energy away from a fusion of 2 D or 2 H in the form of kinetic energy and at the same time conserve linear momentum. However, that is inconsistent with their characteristic of not being slowed downed (shielded) very well by ordinary matter and leaving that energy in the material near the fusion reaction. Bob, I agree this does not make complete sense. Nor is it easy to explain how a massive particle can travel so close to lightspeed. The two points are probably related. It could also be true that more energy is available than has been captured, so far.
