Description

Recent developments in accelerator physics and technology have led to lower cost estimates for a heavy-ion induction linac driver. Studies show that the cost of electricity produced using such a driver are competitive with other fusion systems at a plant capacity of 1.2 GW/sub e/ and are competitive with projected fission power costs at less than 4 GW/sub e/
