Fusor examples

Professional

Fusors have been theoretically studied at multiple institutions, including: Kyoto University,[1] and Kyushu University.[2] Researchers meet annually at the US-Japan Workshop on Inertial Electrostatic Confinement Fusion. Listed here, are actual machines built.

  • Tokyo Institute of Technology has four IEC devices of different shapes: a spherical machine, a cylindrical device, a co-axial double cylinder and a magnetically assisted device.[3]
  • University of Wisconsin-Madison A group at Wisconsin-Madison has been running a very large, funded, fusor program since 1991.[4]
  • Turkish Atomic Energy Authority In 2013 this team built a 30 cm fusor at the Saraykoy Nuclear Research and Training center in Turkey. This fusor can reach 85 Kv and do deuterium fusion, producing {{val|2.4|e=4}} neutrons per second.[5]
  • University of Illinois Dr. George Miley's team at the fusion studies laboratory has built a ~25 cm fusor which has produced {{val|1|e=7}} neutrons using deuterium gas.[6]
  • University of Sydney Dr. Joseph Khachan's group in the Department of Physics has built a variety of IEC devices in both positive and negative polarities and spherical and cylindrical geometries.[7]
  • Atomic Energy Organization of Iran Researchers at Shahid Beheshti University in Iran have built a 60 cm diameter fusor which can produce {{val|1|e=7}} neutrons per second at 140 kilovolts using deuterium gas.[8]
  • Los Alamos National Laboratory In the late nineties, researchers purposed[9] and built a fusor-like system for oscillating plasma, inside a fusor. This device is known as the Periodically Oscillating Plasma Sphere or POPS.[10]
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology For his doctoral thesis in 2007, Carl Dietrich built a fusor and studied its potential use in spacecraft propulsion.[11] In addition, Tom McGuire did his thesis[12][13] on fusors with multiple cages and ion guns.
  • ITT Corporation Hirschs original machine was a 17.8 cm diameter machine with 150 Kv voltage drop across it. This machine used ion beams.
  • Phoenix Nuclear Labs Has developed a commercial neutron source based off a fusor, achieving {{val|3|e=11}} neutrons per second with the deuterium-deuterium fusion reaction.

Amateur

A number of amateurs have built working fusors and detected neutrons. Many fusor enthusiasts connect on forums[14] and message boards online. Below are some examples of working fusors.

  • Richard Hull Since the late nineties, Richard Hull has built several fusors in his home in Richmond, Virginia.[15] In March 1999, he achieved a neutron rate of {{val|10|e=5}} neutrons per second.[16] Hull maintains a list of amateurs who have gotten neutrons from fusors.
  • Carl Greninger Founded the Northwest Nuclear Consortium,[17] an organization in Washington state which teaches a class of a dozen high school students nuclear engineering principles using a 60 kV fusor.[18]
  • Taylor Wilson built a Fusor at 14 years old.[19][20]
  • Matthew Honickman Was a high school student who built a working fusor in his basement in Rochester, New York.[21]
  • Michael Li In 2003, Michael Li became the youngest person to build a fusor and won second place[22] in the US's Intel Science Talent Search winning a $75,000 college scholarship.[23]
  • Mark Suppes A web designer for Gucci in Brooklyn New York, built a working fusor on a path to building the first amateur Polywell.[24][25]
  • Thiago David Olson Built a 40 kV fusor at age 17, in his home in Rochester, Michigan and placed second in the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in 2007.[26][27][28]
  • Jamie Edwards who fused the atom at 13, at his middle school in England [29]. He received a letter from HRH the Duke of York, was invited on The David Letterman Show and gave a TED talk [30].
  • Conrad Farnsworth of Newcastle, Wyoming produced fusion in 2011 at 17[31][32] and used this to win a regional and state science fair.
  • Jackson Oswalt First kid to build a fusor at age 12. [33][34]
