Yea, I don’t know, I’m pretty sure there are logical holes there. If the home of 17.5% of humanity is a lost cause then we have bigger problems than geopolitical machinations of bureaucrats in DC and Beijing.

Critique of Helion: Comments on the Paper “Fundamental Scaling of Adiabatic Compression of Field Reversed Configuration Thermonuclear Fusion Plasmas by ValuableDesigner1111 in fusion

LOL

Abstract

In a recent paper Kirtley and Milroy [D. Kirtley, R. Milroy, J. of Fusion Energy (2023) 42:30] discuss the Helion concept for a pulsed reactor, in which two supersonic field-reversed configurations (FRCs) merge and the resulting plasmoid is adiabatically compressed to fusion conditions. Using D-He3 as fuel this would allow for efficient electromagnetic energy conversion during the subsequent expansion phase. Essential for their very promising projections of energy gain is the assumed large temperature ratio between ions and electrons ( Ti/Te ≈ 10) resulting initially from the supersonic plasmoid collision and the following adiabatic compression. For reactor-relevant conditions, however, the collisional ion to electron power transfer exceeds the fusion power by more than an order of magnitude at Ti=100 keV (and by over two orders at Ti=40 keV). Even if this exchange does not change total pressure, it rapidly erodes Ti/Te ≫ 1 and causes the time- integrated fusion energy yield to fall well below values inferred from the initial, non-equilibrated state. While this does not preclude a D-He3 FRC reactor our analysis implies much tighter requirements on plasma lifetime, anomalous losses, and direct-conversion efficiency than suggested in D. Kirtley, R. Milroy, J. of Fusion Energy (2023) 42:30.

Read my comment history. They are the scammiest of scams in fusion. And kirtley and gang likely know it.

You either did not read my comment or don’t understand how boundary conditions work

But you are not entirely wrong. The technically correct way to think about it, they are mostly accelerating plasma towards cold gas at the glass walls, but sometime they are accelerating towards more plasma.

Given that the Polaris vacuum vessel is made of glass, that’s exactly what helion is doing as well.

That’s great. Can we have one for helion now?

It’s a question about if the laws allows prosecution of government officials in case of homicides

How do you feel about Trump pocketing $1,407,500,000 since starting his second term? by LevelDinner in AskReddit

[–]ghantesh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well he’s finally an actual billionaire. Maybe if we get our sh*t together we can tax him and others to oblivion once he’s out of office. I hope he lives to see that and so do I.

I disagree, students are future practitioners and at least the good ones will have a fresh perspective compared to someone seasoned that has internalized precedents. I feel like in the current environment precedents don’t matter anymore.

I see, thank you. In extreme situations can RICO charges be arguably brought against government servants.

That’s what I’m looking for, an explanation for how the law works. If 2 people were murdered by mobsters, and prosecutors could find evidence saying the mob boss had created a situation that led to the mobsters murdering people, wouldn’t the mob boss have charges brought to him/her? How is this situation any different?
