That is my estimate too. That would be a fairly small budget compared to the 100 to 200 million dollar that Dr. Bussard estimated for the large version. This way a steady state Polywell can be tested and the concept can be proven for a tenth of the budget. If this one works, and fusion output is hig...

Polywell 3D model

I am following the Polywell since 2007, when I have first seen the google tech talk held by the late Dr. Bussard. I have modelled a polywell with the 3D CAD system Pro/ENGINEER. The magrid has a diameter of approximately 1m, which in my opinion should be enough to use superconducting coils, hence th...
