Laser Fusion Gets a New Take On Heating Fuel

January 29, 2020 | Leave a Comment

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… A research team at Osaka University has investigated a new method for generating nuclear fusion power. They are showing that the relativistic effect of ultra-intense laser light improves upon current “fast ignition” methods in laser-fusion research to heat the fuel long enough to generate electrical power. These findings could provide another spark for laser […]
