Mitigation of the Stopping Power Effect on Proton-Boron11 Nuclear Fusion Chain Reactions
A proton beam with a velocity of the order of 109 cm/s is generated to interact with a charge neutral hydrogen-boron medium such as H3B. The created charged particles are confined by magnetic fields. This concept was the basis for a novel non-thermal fusion reactor, published recently in Laser and P...
