Re: Realta Fusion - Mirrors with HTS end plugging - another startup
Looks a bit like what Lockheed Martin was doing a few years back.

Re: Polywell: "Final nail?"
Yeah, but I did a quick search on T-P and didn't see anything about it. Maybe it was discussed, maybe not, been so long.

Re: Polywell: "Final nail?"
The article talks a lot about computer simulation with an ITER sized Polywell reactor, 75 meter outer wall running PB11 steady state having Pout/Pin at 0.13, and how only a slight scale up would make it over unity.

Re: Polywell: "Final nail?"
Did a little internet search on Polywell for the first time in a while and noticed this publication. It talks about Diocotron Pumping to remove cold electrons. Has this been covered before? https://www.researchgate.net/publication/321453672_A_Polywell_Fusion_Reactor_Designed_for_Net_Power_Generation

Re: Polywell: "Final nail?"
If it's the final nail in the coffin for the Polywell, is it also the final nail for Lockheed Martins experiment, they have a lot in common. Did the paper also look at the results from the last EMC2 WB-X device?

There's a new competitor to Concorde.

Re: Signs of life on Venus
Even if it's a microbial life form, it has to eat something in order to survive. What would that be?

Re: I Have Been Occupied
Glad to hear your feeling better Mike, didn't know. Last word was that Dr. Park was doing computer simulations and might do another small scale Polywell just to confirm the results.

George Floyd might be alive and well today if he had been armed with a gun on the day Derek Chauvin arrested him.

Re: Apologies for the long down time
Thankful just to see the site back, world changed a bit while it was gone, what with the plague and all. Now all we need are results from Dr. Parks polywell computer simulations.

Re: That Salvatore Pais again... Fusion Reactor Patent
The Pais design looks a little bit like Nebel's new design with all the rotation. So, if it were possible to take the Polywell design, and cause the magrids to spin at a high speed, you could conceivably attain both high temperatures in the plasma and a high beta magnetic field via induction. Nebel'...
