  1. He's not the only Proton-Boron fusion act in town on Should Google Go Nuclear? · · Score: 1
    This post on the focus fusion site says:
    The theory makes sense. They are building an electrostatic machine, but using magnetic fields to make the charged particles miss the electrically charged grid. I think they are at about the same point focus fusion is. They have done an experiment that agrees with their calculations at a lower energy than would be required to generate power. Their scaling laws require that their machine be larger than a DPF so they will need 150-200 million dollars to do the proof of concept experiment at full energy.
    The focus fusion folks claim to need considerably less funding. Also at that site, a fusion shop promoting the boron-proton fusion reaction and "nuclear peace."
