Recirculating induction accelerators for heavy-ion fusion

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

A two-year study of recirculating induction heavy-ion accelerators (recirculators) as low-cost drivers for inertial-fusion energy power plants has recently been completed. A summary of that study and other recent work on recirculators is presented.
