The 16th US-Japan Workshop on IEC Fusion will be held in Madison, Wisconsin
on October 1-3, 2014. The conference web page is found at http://fti.neep.wisc.edu/iec2014.

The talks are now up on the website at http://www.iae.kyoto-u.ac.jp/beam/iec2013/program.html.
There is lots of interesting stuff there.

LPP has conducted an external review by Robert L. Hirsch Stephen O. Dean, Gerald L. Kulcinski and Dennis Papadopoulos.

I guess that document is mostly of historical interest, because EMC2 has built WB7 to reproduce the WB6 results and WB8 to achieve significantly better performance than WB6. The interesting question is not how well WB6 performed, but rather how did WB7 and WB8 perform? That is of course not known. I...

This years Nobel Week Dialogue programme has the title Exploring The Future of Energy. The programme can be seen here http://www.nobelweekdialogue.org/programme/programme/ .

There is a book published in 2013 by G. Miley: "Life at the Center of the Energy Crisis: A Technologist's Search for a Black Swan". Life at the Center of the Energy Crisis: A Technologist's Search for a Black Swan describes the story of the author's work and struggles in the field of energy research...

Uhm, I think you are confused. General Fusion does not do colliding beam. That would be MSNW and Tri Alpha. These use magnetic fields to do the compression. Besides Sorlox only has one plasmoid, not two. If you take a look on the General Fusions FPA presentation from last year on page 4 of this lin...

There is this text on the website:

Proceedings from the meeting will soon be summarized in a report that will be available on the ARPA-E public website.

Did anyone go to this event?

Is there any 3rd party review to back up the claims these guys are making? Unfortunately not. But if you look on the other projects that are using colliding compact toroids (CT), like General Fusion they basically are trying to do the same thing as Sorllox, that is to create a CT and shoot it into ...

This topic was discussed a lot in this thread on this forum, so you should check it out. h...

Carl, I have no idea how much we'll know. Tri Alpha and EMC2 (Polywell) are certainly keeping quiet. I can only guess that GF is following suit. I would disagree with that Tri Alpha Energy is keeping quiet. As I posted earlier they have a massive amount of contributions at next weeks 55th Annual Me...

Yes, this is interesting indeed. The contents seems to be unchanged, if one compares with the archived website at
