Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil amélioré conçu pour utiliser les combustibles et les composants disponibles pour produire une fusion nucléaire pratique dans un espace relativement confiné. Par exemple, dans un mode de réalisation, on utilise une ou plusieurs fibres de verre comme milieu de confinement pour le combustible nucléaire (par exemple le deutérium ou le lithium). Les fibres sont également éventuellement effilées et poreuses pour faciliter l'introduction d'un combustible gazeux sur une partie de leur longueur. On utilise une source d'énergie d'intensité élevée (par exemple le laser femtoseconde pulsé) pour exciter et confiner le combustible à une température de fusion par le biais notamment de forces pondéromotives générées dans les fibres. L'effluent émanant du dispositif peut servir dans diverses applications, par exemple entraîner un générateur magnétohydrodynamique destiné à produire de l'électricité.
