Hello Carter, Thank you for deciding to make your code open source. Hopefully it will allow better bug detection. If you can include as many details of your development environment that would be very helpful. - Libraries (location and contents) - makefile - how the output is organised etc etc Regard...

I've spent a little while chatting to various greens in the UK and they are in simple terms against any kind of development. Even if you want to put up a windmill, no they don't want that ... Hello Nanos, A wise Buddhist doctor once discussed this with me, and pointed out that in such a world-view ...

Hello Dr. Mike, Thank you for the sim results. I have Blender running OK on my Mac and I can visualise the field vectors. I am still learning Blender, so I have yet to work out sections ... Would it be possible to you to publish two sections through your dataset? Both along the polar axis. One runni...

Hello icarus, Welcome to Talk-Polywell. Analytical work is always welcome. May I ask how your dataset is structured so that visualising it might be undertaken? How do you presently visualise your data? Currently Dr. Mike Rosen is using Blender as his visualising tool for a sim he has undertaken. Thi...

Hello Art, Speculative? Yes. Can it be tested to see if it can work for less than 1e9 US dollars? Definitely. Worthwhile? That's a personal decision, but I think so. I am not a physicist, (I work in medical research) so I have some experience of promising ideas that don't pan out (and some that do)....

A lot of us thought so too, but it turns out the fields actually wrap pretty tightly because of the way four coils interact. There's a picture of this counter-intuitive result somewhere. Also, notice that WB-7 in the pic at EMC is very close to the wall. Hello Dave, Your image is here:- http://www....

This one floored me. I was worried about whether there was published data on the scaling of confinement time with density, and then I discover that Bussard didn't even measure the density. No interferometry. No Langmuir probes. No spectroscopic methods. No Thomson scattering. Just the assumption of...

Hello Art, Bussard produced a report on the final runs of WB-6, which for a time was hosted on the UniWisc website, and is mentioned on Joe Strout's index page . While not exactly a peer-reviewed paper, it might give you some food for thought. You can now find it on Mark Duncan's excellent fusion pa...
