Values of fusion energy multiplication >1 have been shown to be possible during energetic deuterium injection into high-electron-temperature (Te > 3 keV), quasi-neutral tritium plasmas. The high-temperature requirement is eliminated when a nonneutral plasma is the beam's target. Fusion energy multiplication factors >1 can be obtained in a low-temperature (<100 eV), nonneutral tritium plasma.
