Thanks KitemanSA, glad to be corrected. I have to think carefully to keep all the interactions straight in my head. KitemanSA The "electron guns" on the WB6 and I suppose the WB7 were filiments from truck lamps without the glass Is the electron source in WB8 so simple, if anyone outside EMC2 knows? ...

This post should have been posted after chrismb Posted: Thu Jul 16, 2009 4:23 pm Please view it that way. The inside of the polywell has to be negative otherwise the positive ions will not accelerate to the middle, collide and fuse. The electrons are fired out the E guns on the wall of the vacuum ch...

First of all I must say I'm not a physicist so sorry if my questions are elementary. TomB: I've read that electrons must first be fired with E guns into the polywell to create the wiffleball. The -ve electrons are trapped inside the polywell by the the +ve charge on the polywell and are prevented fr...

Polywell Electrical System
Hi Everyone This is my first post, I discovered this technology a month ago and have been reading up and watching videos on it since then. I think it looks very promising and I really hope WB8 lives up to everyones hopes. I am especially interested in the direct conversion of the power to electricit...
