From my posts on LinkedIn Hydrogen/Boron11 fusion by Chirped Pulse Amplification laser technology (en.wikipedia.org) is now a "leading contender" for energy. A laser-driven technique for creating a fusion that dispenses with the need for radioactive fuel elements and leaves no toxic radioactive waste is now within reach, says a UNSW physicist. The proposed method of producing proton-boron fusion uses one laser to create a boron-11 plasma and another to create a stream of protons that smash into the plasma. Dramatic advances in powerful, high-intensity lasers are making it viable for scientists to pursue what was once thought impossible: creating fusion energy based on hydrogen-boron reactions. Australian physicists are in the lead armed with a patented design and working with international collaborators on the remaining scientific challenges. In a paper in the scientific journal Laser and Particle Beams, lead author Heinrich Hora from UNSW Sydney and international colleagues argue that the path to hydrogen-boron fusion is now viable and maybe closer to realization than other approaches, such as the deuterium-tritium fusion approach being pursued by US National Ignition Facility and the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor under construction in France #energy hashtag#hydrogen hashtag#fusionenergy hashtag#radioactive hashtag#boron hashtag#reactors
