Abstract
The sticking probability for the μdt molecular ion is estimated with the help of directly calculated nonvariational wave functions obtained by the correlation function hyperspherical harmonic method. The method generates an accurate, locally correct μdt wave function which leads to precise estimates of the partial-wave sticking coefficients and the fusion rate. Our calculations are compared with other precision computations.
