Abstract

Apparatus for heating plasmas, ions, and/or nuclei to high kinetic energies by entraining the plasmas, ions, and/or nuclei into a fluid and utilizing any combination of the following: (1) an electrically conductive and/or electrically charged fluid to suspend the plasmas, ions, and/or nuclei, (2) hydraulically/hydrostically compressing the fluid, and/or (3) applying a frequency/frequency overlay(s) to the fluid and/or plasma. Means is provided to exhaust the plasmas, ions, nuclei and/or nuclear products from the fluid.
