From NewCandleAdmin at ipdiscover.com Thu May 28 13:18:20 2009 From: NewCandleAdmin at ipdiscover.com (Keith Nagel) Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 10:18:20 -0700 Subject: [NewCandle] New research on D2 fusion with Marx Generator Message-ID: Hi All, Just noticed this story, quite interesting but lacking detail. http://www.unr.edu/nevadanews/templates/details.aspx?articleid=5045&zoneid=1 4 A billion volt Marx Generator would not be something one could construct in the garage, but arguably somewhat easier than the lasers typically considered for fusion work. The talk in question is listed here. http://eis.jpl.nasa.gov/sec353/aspw2008/Schedule.html "Pure Nuclear Fusion Bomb Propulsion," F. Winterberg (U. of Nevada, Reno) and the published paper is here. http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/0803/0803.3636.pdf Yet no mention of the Marx generator idea is contained therein. ??? K.
