That is all.
I wrote:I suspect L's description is a bit simplistic. All you have to do it introduce electrons "with a radial energy ~equal to the desired potential well depth" inside the MaGrid. However, he is still correct that no "beam" behavior is needed.
I don't see how those statements are equal at all. So how can I be wrong for not writing something I didn't write?You said I wrote:it does not matter how electrons are distributed in reactor once the enter inside it.
But just as a set ot thoughts, does a Polywell NEED to have two beams of plasma opposing each other? No.
How bout 4 beams? Nope, not that either.
Is absolutely uniform distribution about the sphere needed. Nope,
How bout an icosadodecahedral pattern. Nope, doesn't need that either.
I fail to see how the Polywell NEEDs ANY specific distribution except that the distribution should include as great a percentage of radial energy as practical. I also suspect that it will approximate sphericity as well as the MaGrid shape will allow. But "beam" behavior? Nope.
