Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I love this YouTube channel.
Good series. Things I would like to see added: Alternative confinement concepts such a FRCs (which are lately making great progress) or a Sheared Flow Stabilized Z- Pinch (maybe also how it is different from a regular Z- Pinch)? Those are good candidates for relatively compact power plants (when compared to toroids like Tokamaks and Stellerators) . The former is very high Beta, the latter can be super compact. For FRCs I like the work Helion Energy and PPPL have been doing. Those two are unfortunately often overlooked. Also missing was Helium3 boosted Deuterium - Deuterium- Fusion, which is interesting, because it does not need an external source of He3 (He3 being a product of D+D along Tritium, which eventually decays into more He3). I think it is a great intermediate step towards PB11 fusion.
I started getting flooded by this guy's stuff last week. What does the algorithm see in this?
