====
If you like, you can just watch the mechanism portion (6 minutes). The mechanism has been broken down into 6 steps:


I. 0:10 -- Electrons are emitted, fall to rings
II. 0:45 -- Electrons caught by rings
III. 0:56 -- Electrons trapped by rings
IV. 2:12 -- Cloud of electrons trapped
V. 3:17 -- Deuterium puffed in, ionizes
VI. 4:11 -- Ions fall towards cloud, hit, fuse
