Recent results for side-on ignition of uncompressed proton-boron (HB 11) fusion that use the Chu-Bobin side-on ignition with petawatt-picosecond laser pulses is extended to the reaction of helium 3-helium 3 (He3)....Recent results for side-on ignition of uncompressed proton-boron (HB 11) fusion that use the Chu-Bobin side-on ignition with petawatt-picosecond laser pulses is extended to the reaction of helium 3-helium 3 (He3). The HBll reaction resulted in radioactivity is lower values than from burning coal per generated energy. This was based on the very rare experiments with extreme suppression ofpre-pulses in order to suppress relativistic self-focusing. Subsequently, acceleration of highly directed plasma blocks of modest temperature and ultra-high ion current densities above 10H Amps/cm2 were measured in agreement with earlier derived theory. This permits the conditions of the Chu-Bobin for side-on ignition of solid density fusion. Results for similar neutron lean He3 are reported. A detailed comparison with the usual spherical laser compression and ignition of fusion is given for clarifying the basic differences of the ignition process.展开更多

Sect. 1 of this paper reviews the historical development of gravitational wave astronomy from Einstein's first prediction to our current understanding the spectrum. It is shown that detection of signals in the audio frequency spectrum can be expected very soon, and that a north-south pair of next generation detectors would provide large scientific benefits. Sect. 2 reviews the theory of gravitational waves and the principles of detection using laser interferometry. The state of the art Advanced LIGO detectors are then described. These detectors have a high chance of detecting the first events in the near future. Sect. 3 reviews the KAGRA detector currently under development in Japan,which will be the first laser interferometer detector to use cryogenic test masses. Sect. 4 of this paper reviews gravitational wave detection in the nanohertz frequency band using the technique of pulsar timing. Sect. 5 reviews the status of gravitational wave detection in the attohertz frequency band, detectable in the polarisation of the cosmic microwave background, and discusses the prospects for detection of primordial waves from the big bang. The techniques described in sects. 1–5 have already placed significant limits on the strength of gravitational wave sources. Sects. 6 and 7 review ambitious plans for future space based gravitational wave detectors in the millihertz frequency band. Sect. 6 presents a roadmap for development of space based gravitational wave detectors by China while sect. 7 discusses a key enabling technology for space interferometry known as time delay interferometry.展开更多
