"Let me know in the comments" Just use compressed air to drive the machine. Air circulating at hypersonic speeds cam seriously decrease the pressure at the center of a cone.

total fantasy

Please ask someone at Thales how to pronounce their company name!

Aside from growing bank accounts and egos, realistically how is this tech any good for God given life and bio rhythms on earth?

The South Korean magnetic fusion device KSTAR is valued at over $1.2 trillion. Why isn't it mentioned anywhere in any of the Fusion Industry Association podcasts or reports?

Amazing progress for fusion this year! The world is truly waking up to the promise of fusion energy, which is no longer a "forever away"- thing but is becoming tangible in the very near future. Helion is leading the charge right now but many others are right behind. Not everyone will make it, but if only one of the teams succeeds, the world will change dramatically! Btw, always love to see people with an "alternative" style in science (like Dr Kesler). I think it makes the field feel more accessible to the general public.

What about Helion? ruclips.net/video/_bDXXWQxK38/видео.html

Happy New Year!

8.92k subscribers - 274 views - 56 thumbs up. Are these good numbers? It doesn't seem so. The material will change the world. Why is it so invisible? Keep up the good work, though!

Great presenters. Happy New Year!

The FIA exists to promote fusion energy and it’s clearly rather successful but this presentation reported nothing new. Where are for example the reports on DT experiments, methods of enriching lithium, high energy neutron irradiation experiments and tritium breeding experiments - all absolutely essential before any fusion reactor can be built. The only result mentioned was the irrelevant NIF ‘more energy out than in’ work - irrelevant since it ignores the massive energy used to put the energy into the target.

Before the end of the 2030s we will need geoengineering to stop a climate catastrophe, that's too late to use it to do direct carbon capture which would take massive amounts of energy.

Long before fusion gets onto the grid, a fusion machine that drives a HEAT EXCHANGER will need to demonstrate it can operate for months at a time with reasonably low maintenance. I am very suspicious, because no one has talked about this. Only a sustained heat-exchanger demonstration will prove the thermodynamic gain, reliability, and running costs.

Excellent summary, thanks for an eventful 2024. Lets have a brilliant 2025!

The phenomenon of nuclear fusion does not have any reasonable theory; the mechanism of fusion is unknown to now. The present theories of quantum mechanics, quantum chromodynamics, electroweak theory and nuclear forces are unable to explain reactions of nuclear fusion. Until there is a clear theory of this phenomenon, there will be no reliable experiment focused on an industrial result, that is, a continuous nuclear fusion reaction of light elements. So, where is the theory? Are leading journals capable of publishing such a theory, as it would certainly bring a significant revision to the existing theories listed above?..

Our reactor uses ion pressure instead of heat and we use an electromagnetic piston to compress the ions that are made by passing a small current through the neutral gas. we are looking for funding. The three prototypes cost us about £500 each. lit a 3 watt m.e.s lamp.

thanks for the udates

nice

Thanks for the update! much love :)

When we transition to fussion energy and start generating enough to do some serious terofforming. Is all the excess energy being created expected to cause any global heating problems?

Fusion will never work and it is a total scam and a swindle that will always be just around the corner and anyone who believes the propaganda is a sucker and a fool!

Fusion... yes... when I was recent engineering grad, like yourself, there was equally optimistic news on fusion. Since then (40 years) we have managed to harness energy from the only, 'local', working, fusion reactor. And now we're creating a terawatt+ of power every day - pollution-free. Over the years it has become abundantly obvious that even if net power-positive fusion is ever created, the power will be far from pollution-free. In fact things are going to get radioactive pretty quickly and we'll be back to the fission nightmare were the instant a power plant is started, that is the last time that piece of land will be used for farming, housing or indeed anything other than a pit in to which vast quantities of money are poured for a hundred plus years (see Sellafield). To power our civilization on this planet, we only have to look to the sun, the wind and the inexhaustible supply of heat beneath our feet to supply every kWh of energy we will ever need.

OK you’re using panels anyway which means segmented and you can have sensors watching the plasma in each area. It looks like the wave of energy travels around the reactor, and you can use a feedback loop to control the magnetic containment field. The feedback from panel one is fed into panel two so as the energy wave arrives, it can use the magnetic field to choke the energy.

What did they go looking around for the cutest engineer to put on RUclips? The rest of them are out in the lab or behind a computer. Lol., The entire industry had a meeting and they voted you to represent them. Lol

Sound was nearly unintelligible.

Hello, thank you for your explanation, also in seawater as new fuel resource can produce minerals Iones, "ruclips.net/video/sBO1ghQO4VA/видео.htmlsi=ccXDCv-9jAdocKQI"

The reports provided by the FIA all suffer from a conflict of interest. The fans tend to have no interest in critically examining the field that they have fallen in love with and tend to immerse themselves in echo chambers that reinforce what they prefer to believe in. Most can’t even understand the technical jargon in the peer reviewed papers that they cite. The ITER project was mentioned above. Conveniently some key issues were not mentioned. One is it is grossly over its original budget. Two is it is well over a decade behind its original schedule. It has encountered major problems with major component assembly. Its first deuterium-tritium fusion experiments are not expected to begin until 2039. The tritium breeding blanket experiments will likely not happen until 2040 at the earliest. The current commercial price for the radioactive tritium gas fuel component is more than $30,000 USD per gram. All promoters of nuclear energy are in line with the vast majority of the Earth’s 8.0+ billion humans who have masterfully excluded the following warnings from their consciousness. They continue to assume that we have at least 20 years left to turn this ‘Titanic’ around, through the use of their favorite technology. I urge readers to search for the following two article titles. IPCC report: ‘now or never’ if world is to stave off climate disaster (TheGuardian) UN chief: World has less than 2 years to avoid 'runaway climate change' (TheHill) * This statement was made 5.8 years ago.

Fusion news with a smile. Well said and done.

we found a simple arrangement of a coil and tube by chance that starts by itself and changes deuterium to helium. Stop wasting money on the Tokomaks. I wish I understood them!

Thanks Jasmine and team for all the fusion news this year, much appreciated!

Thanks. But please get a boom mike or a röde clip-on mike. Too much echo when listening on large av system.

General Fusion’s neutron yields are impressive, but when they turn to DT plasmas, will they be able to breed tritium without the presently difficult (and perhaps impossible) step of isotopically enriching the lithium to increase the Li6 content.

I love all the narrators updates on nuclear fusion, you benefit the whole world... These are the chats that I like....

I love the shorts. Perfect amount of detail for me!

che los re banco pero se me hace dificil sostener la atencion cuando hablan sin mirar a la camara.. ¿no hay manera de ajustar el teleprompter para q les quede a la altura correcta?

Thanks for the update - much appreciated.

This is such a race!

Eric Lerner at LPPFusion, and Eric Lander at Pacific Fusion sound like they should meet! I am certain pulsed fusion reactors are the correct answer.

So, When we getting it down the wires?

These sales hype presentations are intended to attract massive investment funding into the scores of nuclear fusion energy experimental projects to allow the experimenters to continue their play that has been going on since the 1950s. It relies upon gross deceptions that have become institutionalized in the field that aims to snow journalists, the general public and clueless investors who rely upon critical assessments provided by the fans in this community. These hype reports are based upon the hype that appears in popular publications. The editors and presenters tend to make no efforts to review the peer reviewed technical papers and likely wouldn't understand them if they even tried. The fans tend to immerse themselves in echo chamber information sources to reinforce what they prefer to believe in. Typically they have zero interest in seeking out critical assessments of the technologies that they have come to love and assume will save us all from the dire warnings regarding Anthropogenic Climate Disruption (ACD) effects. Here is my recap of the presentations made in this video. 1) Nuclear Startup Pacific Fusion Nabs $900 Million in Funding Generating promotional hype that attracts investors is one thing. Delivering practical results is extremely different. This startup has not demonstrated any fusion level compression parameters. It hasn't employed D-T fuel in its experiments, or produced any results suggesting the production of even one watt-hour of fusion energy. It is experimenting with a very short pulsed device where the Q-plasma value only applies to the extremely short 'ON' time of well under 150 nanoseconds. The recovery time is likely to be substantially longer than that. It doesn't include any provision for tritium breading. 2) Japan launches FAST fusion power project This is a proposed project that has yet to demonstrate a use of D-T fuel, or the production of a single watt-hour of fusion energy. It will be a pulsed device so all mention of Q-plasma values achieved will only apply to conditions during the 'ON' time and recovery periods could be substantial. 3) The Quest to Build a star on Earth Only a tiny fraction of the scores of experimental nuclear fusion experimental programs employ D-T fusion fuel and have produced more than a watt-hour of fusion thermal energy generation. In most cases the demonstrated fusion has been extremely brief during the days the experimental shots were conducted. No experiment has yet demonstrated a self-sustaining reaction without massive quantities of input power supplied to such facilities. 4) Limitless fusion power: Tokamak Energy heats up with $125M from investors including British Patient Capital This company has not employed D-T fusion fuel but has only demonstrated fusion level plasm temperatures at the cost of large amounts of energy feeding their facility. The experiments are done with the ST40 high-field compact spherical tokamak. It has been two years since they achieved the goal of a plasma temperature in excess of 100 million degrees Celsius. 5) Nuclear fusion start-up claims milestone with unconventional reactor OpenStar Technologies LTD achieved 300,000 °C for 20 seconds. No D-T fusion fuel was employed so it is unlikely it generated anything above a milliwatt-hour of fusion thermal energy despite a large input of energy to power the experimental facility. It is likely to be a pulsed experimental reactor with lengthy recovery time between shots so the Q-plasma value will only apply to the 'ON' period of time for the device. See the Wikipedia article titled 'List of fusion experiments.' There is a massive market for hopeful presentations and numerous opportunists have learned how to capitalize upon those cravings. Many of these privately and federally funded startups claim that they can create a commercially practical nuclear fusion energy electricity generating pilot power plant by the end of the 1930s. Currently, the most advanced ones remain many orders of magnitude away from such a technical goal. Their entire schtick is based upon a state of denial of the following warnings. The tens-of-billions, worth of invested USD, would be better applied to constructing solar and wind farm based energy sources. Virtually all nuclear energy promoters, are in line with the vast majority of Earth's other 8.0+ billion humans, who continue to assume that we still have at least 20 years left to turn this 'Titanic' around using their favorite nuclear technology. They have become masterful in excluding the following warnings from their consciousness. I urge readers to search for the following two article titles. IPCC report: ‘now or never’ if world is to stave off climate disaster (TheGuardian) UN chief: World has less than 2 years to avoid 'runaway climate change' (TheHill) * This statement was made 5.8 years ago.

What a beautiful human

fusion is life😊

In Cyd's 3rd story, The Quest to Build a Star on Earth, Dr. Cowley commented about fusion start-ups, "there's an awful lot of supercharged hype." When people don't deliver, the consequences will be worrisome. 😞

We're all so excited. We'll have fusion 25 years from now.

Fusion energy is cool.

In other not-covered news, Lawrenceville Plasma started Proton-Boron fusion tests.

2:51 Considering ITER won't be achieving Q>1 before 2035, and it isn't designed to produce electric power, FAST shows Japan (and others) have convinced themselves that we can't wait for the ITER-DEMO roadmap.

Cold Fusion is the way. It is what Helion is based off of. Compressed plasmoids or exotic vacuum objects. It has been proven over and over again if you pay attention to the right areas, for example, The Martin Fleischmann Memorial Project. One project specifically is by Bin Juine Huang in Taiwan who put out a paper at beginning of the year in Nature SR regarding his cavitation based reactor.. He is currently in the process of scaling to a commercial plant.

Dr. Cyd Cowley's podcasts are a breath of fresh air in the world that is speeding toward gloom and doom. His enthusiasm is infectious, and his presentations are always uplifting and bubbling over with optimism. ☢

And where do all these amazing finance boosted firms plan to source their tritium to get their marvellous reactors started?
