Abstract: Muon cycling dynamics for muon catalyzed fusion in heterogeneous solid layers are considered through decay of complex molecule$[(dt\mu)_{\nu, J}^* dee]_{v, k}$. The suggested fusion system consists of three layers which are alternatively repeated. The first layer isD/T(deuterium, tritium) which provides$[(dt\mu)_{\nu, J}^* dee]_{v, k}$molecules. The second layer isT2molecules which are used to slow down the muonic atoms and the third layer isD2molecules. The design is in a way in whichdtμ, muonic deuterium and tritium molecules, are produced in resonance. It is shown, by considering muonic dynamics theoretically in a suggested heterogeneous system and determining its cycling rate by using a more advanced calculational method, that for equal deuterium, tritium concentration(Cd=Ct=0.5)inD/Tlayer andϕ'=ϕ0=ϕ=1(relative density for each layer respectively and given in liquid hydrogen densityLHD=4.25×1022cm-3), the muon cycling rate is optimum for the suggested heterogeneous system and has 15% enhancement with respect to the conventionalD/Tsystem. It is also shown that forϕ0
