摘要:
A fusion reactor includes an improved ability to modulate a plasma for specific purposes. The reactor operates on the ability to change at least four separate variables in each of a plurality of lenses that are independent of the other lenses. This allows for the generation of Alfvén waves and modulation of the internal plasma dynamics, actively leading to higher states of efficiency. By combining modulation of a plasma in the form of an ion beam with a solid state metal target, an efficient fast neutron source can be produced. This can lead to industrial applications such as energy generation, nuclear clean-up, the production of rare earth metals out of semi-rare ones, and helium production.
