real(dp), intent(in) :: u
! Local variables
real(dp) :: t1,t2,xvc,xvcs

t1 = (u**3)/(1.0D0+u**3)
! vcritx : critical velocity for electron/ion slowing down of beam ion (m/s)
xvc = vcritx*u
xvcs = xvc * xvc * mproton/(echarge * 1000.0D0)
t2 = sigbmfus(xvcs)

function sigbmfus(vrelsq)
!! Fusion reaction cross-section
!! author: P J Knight, CCFE, Culham Science Centre
!! vrelsq : input real : square of the speed of the beam ion (keV/amu)
!! This function evaluates the fusion reaction cross-section as a
!! function of beam ion velocity (squared).
!! The functional form of the cross-section is in terms of the equivalent
!! deuterium energy, i.e. for a tritium beam at 500 keV the energy
!! used in the cross-section function is 333 keV.
