LLNL and Pacific Fusion achieve 3,000-shot milestone with Sirius pulsed-power prototype
Researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Pacific Fusion have surpassed 3,000 “shots” with Sirius, a four-stage prototype impedance-matched Marx generator (IMG) of the type that can provide pulsed power to an inertial confinement fusion machine. The team characterized this achievement as a “key milestone in the development of high-gain fusion and a practical example of government-industry partnership at work.”
