Astrophysical S-factor Calculation for p-p Fusion Reaction
This paper presents a new calculation of the astrophysical S-factor for the p-p fusion reaction, yielding a value approximately one order of magnitude lower than accepted standards by utilizing a genetic algorithm-optimized inverse scattering potential and an exact WKB action integral that accounts for the specific shape of the interaction rather than relying on the bare Coulomb approximation.
