On the Possibility of Building a Controlled Nuclear Fusion Facility in Russia

Abstract

The design of a reactor to implement a controlled nuclear fusion reaction is considered. The reactor operation is based on the principle of a counter-beam system using the guiding phenomenon, a noncontact sliding interaction of beams of accelerated charged particles with a dielectric wall, for the isolation of beams from the wall. The equipment required for the construction of such a reactor is currently manufactured industrially and is used in radio electronics. As an example, the d–t reaction is considered. In the proposed installation, the expected surface power density of the energy release of this reaction should be ~10⁴ W/m².
