Design and Commissioning of a Deuterium-Tritium Gas Delivery System for Muon-Catalyzed Fusion in a Diamond Anvil Cell

We report the design, commissioning, and operation of deuterium-deuterium (DD) and deuterium-tritium (DT) gas delivery systems developed to load a diamond anvil cell (DAC) beam target for muon-catalyzed fusion (µCF). The DAC approach enables DT fuel to be compressed to gigapascal...
