The problem with fusion energy is simple: how to control 150 million degrees plasma?

The AI can control fusion. And the Princeton researchers made a big work with the AI and its ability to control high-temperature systems. AI is a tool that can control the magnetic fields and plasma-energy interactions with a very high accuracy. The form of fusion reactor is forming. The most promising version is the Tokamak. The Tokamak reactor is a donut-shaped accelerator. In that reactor, magnetic field and laser rays push plasma into high pressure and raise its temperature to 150 million degrees Celsius. 

The problem is this. The system must compensate for the pressure in the sun's nucleus. The system raises plasma temperature higher than in the sun's core. That reactor must keep plasma hovering in the reactor because if plasma touches the reactor shell, it burns a hole in the reactor, causing an explosion. 

Another problem is this: how to keep plasma in form? The answer could be that the system starts a fusion reaction at the plasma-ring outer shell. That presses energy in the plasma. If a reaction happens in the middle of the plasma ring, that flash destroys the entirety. It's a big problem to control the high-energy plasma in temperature. That is higher than in the sun's nucleus. 

The new wave-based theory of heat transport can make a revolution in the fusion tests. The idea is that the system creates a wave-based thermal pump, that transports energy out from the plasma. This system can make the cooler point in the plasma ring, and that helps high-temperature ion or anion particle impact. 

And for controlling the system, researchers need all the information about it. And that means they must know precisely how heat moves in complex structures. The heat transporting theory is important when a system tries to predict a point, where too high an energy level in the wrong point destroys the structure. 

The photon polarization means that certain wavelengths can removed from radiation. If the system can polarize infrared radiation, that can deny the infrared impact to the reactor. The problem is, how to make that thing in 150 million degrees. 

One solution that can control temperature is infrared lasers that shoot counterwaves against infrared radiation. That comes out from the plasma.  If that counterwave system is powerful enough, that system can push all infrared radiation back into the system.






The answer could be the cold fusion. 

Originally cold fusion meant thermonuclear bombs where plutonium shell surrounds the fusion stage. In the regular Teller-Ulam construction, the fission stage that ignites the fusion is in the middle of the fusion stage. That causes the effect, that fission breaks the fusion structure. When the fission starts at the bomb's outer shell, it keeps the fusion material in its form longer than in the original solution. 

So. 

In hot fusion, the fission stage is in the middle of the fusion stage. 

In cold fusion, the fission is around the fusion stage. 


The other version of cold fusion is that the particle accelerators shoot ions and anions together. 


Today, cold fusion means the fusion where particle accelerators shoot ions and anions together. The system is hard to make in Tokamak. The system requires the ability to control plasma. And if the system injects anions into the ion ring, that will begin fusion. But the problem is that the same magnets that push ion plasma in the middle of the torus pull the anions to its shell. 

The cold fusion requires an "Y" shape reactor. There are two accelerator lines. That shoots ions and anions into the same point. One version is to use sodium and chloride ions and anions. Then those ions and anions will make the fusion reaction. This system can operate, as a pulsed plasma fusion engine in a futuristic interplanetary spacecraft. 

The other version is that the Tokamak creates the ion or anion plasma ring. And then the system brings an object with opposite polarity in the middle of the plasma ring. That thing should pull the plasma ring in that particle beam. The system creates a ring-shaped anion plasma ring. And then it shoots that ring to the particle accelerator. In that structure is a proton beam that pulls anion plasma in it.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
