If 45 KV is not high enough, can we use a 30 to 50 KV deuterium particle beam to bombard a 45 KV pinch? Would that provide the 75 to 95 KV energy to probe the voltage levels that would be effective?
Not really, because what causes the fusion is the dense current of the pinch.
Looks like it has already been tried with an electron beam: Neutron enhancement
