Really? Examples please.
And you can begin from here - this thread.
What potential difference passes copper ion till hit window?

As I have a doubt that you could not answer on this very simple question and then began attack me personally.

I am not willing to loose more time. Since long I understood that you like to enter into such discussion just to please your ego.
Reply to your questions by yourself, as hearing your voice is clearly the only thing that interest you.

No, I do not want to enter in such discussion. As from the beginning I know that you have nothing to answer. As I am right that copper ions have kinetic energy aliquot to 45keV: 45keV, 90keV, ... and you have only doubts without any knowledge.

LPPX- Twittered:
11 shots yesterday, good times
Focus Fusion Twittered:
Fired some cleaning shots at the lab yesterday (just enough plasma to clear chambers) then battened down the hatches. Come on Irene!

If these guys will indeed demo Boron within this year I will be in bliss!

I would already settle for them getting results according to predictions...
PB11 would be awesome though.

Will you not be in bliss if they will indeed "only" much easier D-T?

The final aim of FF1 is to attempt PB11 aneutronic fusion.
If they will succeed in D-T fusion I will be excited because they will be almost at the end of demonstrating their theory.
If the succeed in pB11 fusion I will be in bliss because they have reached their research goal.

And will be in bliss only if both of those two goals will be achieved in one year?
As people working on controlled fusion even on D-T fuel could not reach breakeven during for about 60 years.
Thanks. :)

You wait confirmation of two big events in one year: FF works on D-T and FF works on pB.
People working 60 years including Focus Fusion experiment (as this is not a new idea and not only of Dr. Lerner or not his at all) could not achieve anything promising till now.
Smoking marihuana+drinking also may be blissed. Some people know other ways to be in bliss too. :)

There is some probability for you to be excited. Though Focus Fusion experiments were conducted in USA and Soviet Union about 30 years ago and then haven’t found continuation. Till now I do not know what the key improvement has Dr. Lerner together with his team made in the concept.

You do not know simply because you do not care to inform yourself.
On FF website there is a clear description of what you want to know.
The innovations are:

1) A Gigagauss magnetic field effect to reduce bremsstrahlung cooling.
2) The formation of a stable plasmoid to increase fusion yield.

If these two effect can be mastered (and used to transform a DPF machine in a commercial reactor) is exactly the research goal of FF1.

Really?
Do you think that the stabilizing effect of stronger mag field was not known 30 years ago?
This is not key improvement. As I understand, they produce that Gigagauss magnetic field by increasing of discharge voltage to up to 45kV and only that increases the current. Also we can see that as one of results they have got the anode erosion.
So, I very doubt on bremsstrahlung's reducing. Actually, the declared by them plasma contamination "with hydrocarbons of grease" (with carbon ions as I understand) may be from Mylar insulator 100% contacting with hot and partially ionized gas. This would be the second source of bremsstrahlung's increasing.
