The Magnetically Insulated Inertial Confinement Fusion: A novel approach
Description
This report summarizes the results of a three-year investigation of the Magnetically Inertial Confinement Fusion (MICF) concept. Although the details of the investigation will not be presented here and will be left to the publications generated by the study, the main results and potential applications will be highlighted. The most important conclusion of the study is that MICF does present a very promising approach to fusion power, and that no serious physics issues appear to stand in the way of its eventual utilization as a fusion reactor
