Laser-induced thermonuclear fusion
Creators
Description
Laser-induced fusion has recently joined magnetic-confinement fusion as a prime prospect for generating controlled thermonuclear power. During the past three years, the Atomic Energy Commission has accelerated the national laser-fusion program more than tenfold, to about $30 million annually, and the Soviet Union has a program of comparable size.
