    I’m a layman and new to the forum and but I have a couple quick questions…

    1. Is there there the potential to demonstrate net energy production with tungsten? Is it likely in your opinion? If you had to give it a % chance of happening, what would it be?
    2. Beryllim has a melting point much lower than tungsten… will this cause contamination of the plasma like LPP experienced with the old electrode?
    3. What do the timelines currently look like for testing on both tungsten and beryllium?

    Thanks!
