Wish List

Donation Wish List

LPP needs your help!!!  Our quest for Focus Fusion and X-Scan would be accelerated by some equipment items for which we don't have the funding.  Perhaps you or a company you know about has these pieces of equipment sitting around or being thrown out.  We'd love to have them!  We have already received some great used equipment from a local company, based on the suggestion from a fusion fan, so we thought we'd put together a wish list and see what else we could get in this way.  It never hurts to ask!

   - Oscilloscopes

      - 2 LeCroy Wavepro 960 or similar: 4-channel

      - 1 Tektronix MSO4104B or similar: 1 GHz, 4-channel, semi-portable for checking things in the reactor room

   - Mass Spectrometer

   - UV-VIS Spectrometer

   - Neutron Detector with associated equipment

   - X-Ray Source (like used by dentists) for calibrating our X-ray detectors

   - Small Lathe for those small jobs that we don't want to send to the machinist

   - Digital Geiger Counter for, you know, measuring any radioactivity

   - BIG Capacitors: must handle 45 kV, 9-10 microfarads (perhaps sitting around in a hospital or research lab basement somewhere)

   - Framing Camera: for capturing "video" of the of the plasmoid formation process (this is our dream camera that costs about $500K)

I think that the “Focus Fusion” approach of Lawrenceville Plasma Physics, Inc. should be funded as the science behind it is very interesting. Even if this approach does not succeed in producing fusion energy, the research will produce valuable technology in the near term. - Bruno Coppi, Professor of Physics and Senior Fusion Researcher, MIT

The experimental program that LPP plans to carry out has great potential to show how the plasma focus can be used to generate fusion energy and to demonstrate the feasibility of hydrogen-boron fusion. In addition, the experiments will investigate the magnetic effect, which will be very exciting. Achieving giga-gauss magnetic fields with the plasma focus, getting gyro-radii of the order of the electron Compton wavelength, will certainly be new physics and will open up large new possibilities for energy production. - Dr. Julio Herrera, Professor of Physics, National Autonomous University of Mexico
