Check it OUT! Fusion Family Tree...
Hey Guys,
Are there things you would add to this? Changes you would make?

A Penning trap uses both electric and magnetic fields.
I believe the Riggatron is a variant on the Tokomak.

Sonoluminesence supposedly produces copious neutrons from H2 bubbles, but far too few for possible net gain.
Although I don't know if anyone has tried the right, or any, liquid metal mediums.
What are the reflective--neutron and otherwise--properties of melted berylium?

Focus Fusion (or the plasma focus/dense plasma focus device) is a development of the Z-pinch, I believe.
Temperature, density, confinement time: pick any two.

Re: Check it OUT! Fusion Family Tree...
Where would Migma be on that tree?
Re: Check it OUT! Fusion Family Tree...
As I understand Migma it's related to Penning Trap.

Re: Check it OUT! Fusion Family Tree...
You need the whole magnetized target fusion family:
MagLIF (Z-pinch liner implosion plus laser pre-heating of target in an axial B-field)
General Fusion (colliding spheromaks+delightful steampunk--a variant of LINUS)
Helion (colliding FRCs with liner implosion)
Slough's fusion-driven rocket (single FRC with liner implosion)
BTW, I wouldn't put spheromaks over in the "rings" category, which I'd rename something like "toroidal MCF". A spheromak's a compact torus (as is an FRC). But I would add the spherical tokamak (cf. MAST) over there.
You need to add fast ignition to the ICF node. You probably need heavy ion fusion over there, too.
I guess you could put levitated dipole (LDX) under "toroidal MCF" (although it's inside-out!).
And where are you going to put muon-catalyzed fusion?

I Just saw this, I will see what I can do to add all that and get back to you.
