    Hi Guys,

    I am new to the forum, but not new to fusion, I have been doing fusion experiments since 2005, and have two patents in progress. I am really interested in the latest specs on focus fusion, is there somewhere I can get the data from your experiments?

    Unlike focus fusion, my effort at the moment, is on a steady state fusion (not pulsed) reaction. My experimental work has been on hold for the last 18 months, but I hope to start up again soon, with much work to do, as soon as I find a new location for my lab.

    I watched the latest video on the Focus Fusion home page, and I see that you are producing neutrons, your bubble detector looked as if it had around 20-25 bubbles in it, how many shots was this from, and what was the distance from the core?

    Do you know what the Q is?

    What is the shot repetition rate and how does this translate to isotropic neutron emission?

    or How many reactions per shot?

    By the way, my Q calculator here might be of help.

    Hi Steve,

    At their curent locations, one detector gets 2.2X10^9 neutrons per bubbble and the other half that. Our best shots so far are at 1.5 x10^11 neutrons per shot. The wall-plug effiency is 1/250,000 at best.

    This experimental device is not meant for rapid pulsing. A generator would pulse at about 500 Hz.

    Eric,

    Not bad at all, if you don’t mind me asking, what is the radius to the BTI, and what calibration are they?

    At 500 Hz you would be cooking away quite nicely.

    Is my bubble calculator of any use, can you use it to get a Q?
