Abstract: Results of numerical simulations of fusion rate d(d,p)t, for low-energy deuteron beam, colliding with deuterated metallic matrix (Phys. Lett. B 547 (2002) 193; Eur. Phys. J. A 13 (2002) 377) confirm analytical estimates given in M. Coraddu et al. (Quantum-tail effect in low energy d+d reaction in deuterated metals, Physica A, this issue), taking into account quantum tails in the momentum distribution function of target particles, and predict an enhanced astrophysical factor in the 1keV region in qualitative agreement with experiments.
