Magneto-inertial fusion research in the united states: A promising prospect

Summary form only given. Most fusion research has focused on magnetic confinement fusion with densities of ~1014 ions/cm3 and confinement times of >10 s, or pulsed inertial confinement fusion (ICF) with densities ~1025 ion/cm3 with confinement times 100 MJ fusion yields per pulse on higher-curren...

Description
Summary:Summary form only given. Most fusion research has focused on magnetic confinement fusion with densities of ~1014 ions/cm3 and confinement times of >10 s, or pulsed inertial confinement fusion (ICF) with densities ~1025 ion/cm3 with confinement times 100 MJ fusion yields per pulse on higher-current, next-generation pulsed power facilities [5].
