As far as I can tell, in the next year or two, LPP will be in the process of finding the optimal magnetic field strength, and the optimal plasmoid diameter for energy generation. Determining the reliability of shots in terms of spark-gaps all firing at the same time is a preliminary challenge before focus fusion optimization for energy generation can be fully explored. LPP might also be having some in-depth conversations with the manufacturer to verify whether the spark-gap components are actually up to the necessary timing precision (if this was the case, then it wouldn’t be a theoretical challenge as much as an technical/engineering one).
