[0002] Nuclear fusion energy, as a highly valuable future energy source, boasts numerous advantages, including high energy density, abundant raw material reserves, and excellent safety. In modern society, with its ever-increasing energy consumption and the advancement of science and technology, humanity's demand for energy is growing. At the same time, the environmental damage caused by traditional fossil fuels is receiving increasing attention.

[0003] For the reasons mentioned above, it is essential for humanity to conduct relevant scientific research on nuclear fusion energy to promote its commercialization. In current nuclear fusion research, tokamak devices, considered highly feasible magnetic confinement thermonuclear fusion experimental devices, are being widely used. In tokamak devices, deuterium-tritium fusion produces high-energy neutrons and alpha particles as products of the fusion reaction. Both fusion reaction products possess enormous energy, which can be converted into heat and then further into electricity, realizing the complete process of nuclear fusion power generation. Therefore, calculating the energy spectrum of the fusion reaction products is crucial. The initial stage of the tokamak device heating process typically employs ohmic heating. However, ohmic heating has drawbacks such as decreased heating efficiency above a certain temperature, low heating efficiency for ions during the heating process, and unsuitability for the pulsed operation of a fusion reactor in steady-state operation. Therefore, in addition to ohmic heating, neutral beam injection is also required as an auxiliary heating method. Traditional calculation methods lack research on the energy spectrum of fusion products under neutral beam injection conditions, and due to limitations in experimental conditions, there are few research results on the energy spectrum of deuterium-tritium fusion under neutral beam injection conditions. Therefore, it is essential to develop a new calculation method applicable to the energy spectrum of fusion products under neutral beam injection conditions.

[0004] The method for calculating the energy spectrum of nuclear fusion products under neutral beam injection conditions has significant research value and broad future research prospects. It provides important reference and practical value for subsequent research on nuclear fusion-related topics based on tokamak devices. The calculation results of the energy spectrum of nuclear fusion products under neutral beam injection conditions obtained based on this method can serve as an important reference for improving reaction conditions and achieving steady-state operation in tokamak devices.
