They should get in contact with Avalanche fusion and discuss about using their feedthrough technology.
They could than expand their working parameters space to a degree where practical tests would make more sense than investing into simulations.

Re: ZAP Energy News
They are doing both, but I assume that they want to get simulations in line with the practical results to have a more solid theoretical base.

Anyone have access to the full article? They mention they have a "basis" for scaling laws now, curious to know their scaling laws for Zap.

I do not have the paper and I could not find it so far, but the Fusion power was expected to scale to the 11th power of the pinch current.bennmann wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 2:15 pmhttps://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.132.155101

If they got confirmation on that is indeed pretty interesting.
I will try to look more deep for someone that has a copy to share.

Re: ZAP Energy News
I saw that their scaling laws were indeed confirmed at the > 11th power. The 11th power is what their simulations predict. Their experiments show a somewhat higher scaling, actually, which is interesting in itself (and a reason why they keep working on their simulations).Giorgio wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 7:17 pmI do not have the paper and I could not find it so far, but the Fusion power was expected to scale to the 11th power of the pinch current.bennmann wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 2:15 pmhttps://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.132.155101

Re: ZAP Energy News
True, I remember seeing a paper where they actually was speaking of scaling to the 12th power.Skipjack wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 6:03 amI saw that their scaling laws were indeed confirmed at the > 11th power.
