Or perhabs an hitherto unknown instability?

Their recent papers have not shown that from what I can remember.

I wonder if this is a matter of ready to confirm & publish as it seems their FuseQ device test amps is high enough? From what I understand, they have the input current, but the pinch current did not increase as much yet. Could be a lot of reasons for that. Looking at what LPPF has been going throug...

Business Insider article: https://www.businessinsider.com/zap-energy-fusion-power-plant-z-pinch-2023-12 There are some mistakes like The company has yet to generate fusion reactions with its device This is wrong. They have created lots of fusion reactions and have the neutrons to prove it. In order ...

Just wanted to wish everyone here Happy Holidays, if you celebrate.

Eh?
According to this "Jon Beam, Chief Operating Officer, praised the Mission Operations team for their exceptional work and agility, advancing ahead of schedule toward completing primary mission objectives by year's end."

Either they have not turned it on yet, or it is not working...

Very happy for them. It is not a lot of money, but hopefully enough to get them started.

2.5’ thick borated concrete shielding walls are going up in Ursa. These walls will shield the rest of the facility from neutrons generated during Polaris operations.

of course they probably won't need to ship nearly as much tritium as coal

Yeah and the Tritium will be leaving the plants, not going there.

yes Kirtley says in the last video they are focusing on making modular components small enough to fit through a train tunnel, and mentions Falcon in that context as well so apparently rail transport is the plan, but he does not mention the vacuum chamber specifically, so that might only cover the o...

Helion seems to be playing their cards very close to the vest, it's surprising how little information there is in about them in many common resources They have been a lot more open recently (though still keeping a few things secret). They have a few interviews and stuff with various engineering cha...

Having worked in heavy industry, I've seen things much bigger than 3m transported by road. Let's consider too, the current Helion facility won't be the only production facility, if for no other reason than there's a much larger manufacturing base on the other side of the Rockies from them, with far...

With Starship using steel for the structure, I wonder how many tiles it can lose before catastrophic failure.
