Assume a temperature of 2.0 × 108 K in a controlled thermonuclear reactor. (a) Calculate the most probable energy of deuterons at this temperature. (b) Use the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution from Chapter 9 to determine the fraction of deuterons having an energy that is 2, 5, and 10 times the most probable energy.
