Malaysian government invests in Burnaby fusion energy company
Vancouver Metro News Emily Jackson, May 18 2015 Malaysia’s state-owned energy company may be dragging its feet when it comes to investing in B.C.’s liquefied natural gas industry, but the country is bankrolling another type of energy being developed in the province. The Malaysian government’s strategic investment fund was the largest investor in the latest … Read moreMalaysian government invests in Burnaby fusion energy company

PJMIF Concept Tutorial
A presentation by October 4, 2011 Outline • Discuss the fusion power flow chart to determine the fusion gain required by any given inertial fusion scheme in order to produce net power on the grid – Compare PJMIF against laser ICF • Explain the fusion burn configuration for PJMIF • Explain how this is achieved … Read morePJMIF Concept Tutorial
Plasma Liners and the Potential for a Standoff Magneto-Inertial Fusion Reactor
This is the Power Point presentation given by Dr. Scott C. Hsu of the Los Alamos National Laboratories, NM at the ARPA-E Fusion Workshop in Berkeley, CA, in 2013. It explains what a Standoff Magneto-Inertial Fusion Reactor is, how it would work, what are the advantages of that design, what the design and maintenance challenges … Read morePlasma Liners and the Potential for a Standoff Magneto-Inertial Fusion Reactor

MagLIF with DT cryo layer could achieve ten thousand times net gain nuclear fusion and it would be very good for fusion space propulsion
NextBigFuture.com The cheapest, smallest reactors will emerge from the so-called magneto-inertial fusion (MIF) parameter space. This physics regime is a hybrid between the low density magnetic confinement and beyond solid density inertial confinement. Many of the smallest proposed fusion propulsion systems are in fact MIF systems, consistent with this recent study. (The Case and Development … Read moreMagLIF with DT cryo layer could achieve ten thousand times net gain nuclear fusion and it would be very good for fusion space propulsion
Polywell Nuclear Fusion, Boston
BostonCommons.net When the head of the Atomic Energy Commission at the time, Lewis Strauss, infamously quipped in 1954 that electricity would become “too cheap to meter,” he was likely referring to nuclear fusion, not nuclear fission, the atom-splitting reaction that powers conventional nuclear power plants today. [1] I think that nuclear fission plant should be … Read morePolywell Nuclear Fusion, Boston
