NUCLEAR FUSION REACTOR
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4069198
An apparatus is described for heating a gas to thermonuclear reaction temperatures by compression. The apparatus comprises a toroidal tube of quartz or some other material of low electric conductivity enclosed in a copper envelope. Means are provided for a build-up of current in the theta direction of rate>10/ sup 11/ amp/sec cm and to induce another current in the Z direction before or after the theta current is produced. Using this apparatus, temperatures of >3 x 10/sup 4/ deg C were achieved in an air discharge. (D.L.C.)
