America's nuclear fusion 'breakthrough' is super-hot ... yet far from practical
"Crossing this threshold is the vision that has driven 60 years of dedicated pursuit—a continual process of learning, building, expanding knowledge and capability, and then finding ways to overcome the new challenges that emerged."
Where the magic happens ... The hohlraum holding the pellet of fusion fuel, a frozen mix of hydrogen isotopes "The laser team recently completed an upgrade to enable increasing the delivered energy by eight per cent," Alex Zylstra, a principal experimentalist at LLNL, told"We then developed a modified design that uses this extra energy to implode thicker fuel pellets, which leads to increased performance with the fusion output exceeding the laser energy."
