Huntsville AL (SPX) Jul 29, 2013 - University of Alabama in Huntsville is conducting pulsed fusion propulsion research with the Charger-1 device. The Charger-1 is a ~500 kJ pulsed power facility capable of 2 MA discharges at 3 TW of instantaneous power. For comparison, the electrical power in the entire global grid is 15 TW. The Charger-1 will be used to research pertinent technologies for pulsed z-pinch fusion propulsion. In z-p ... morehttp://www.energy-daily.com/reports/Support_Fusion_Propulsion_Research_999.html
