摘要: We apply a few simple first-principles equations to identify the parameter space in which controlled fusion might be possible. Fundamental physical parameters such as minimum size, energy, and power well cost are estimated. explain why fuel density inertial confinement is more than 1011 times larger magnetic fusion. introduce magnetized target one possible way of accessing regime that intermediate between two extremes potentially lower either these two.
