Technology Assessment & Commercial Milestones
University of New South Wales spin-out using non-thermal, ultra-short-pulse lasers and avalanche reactions to ignite p-¹¹B without bulk plasma heating.
Thesis: If avalanche multiplication of p-¹¹B is real, ignition energy collapses by orders of magnitude — true table-top fusion becomes possible.
Key engineering bottlenecks: Independent reproduction of avalanche fusion claims; Driver wall-plug efficiency.
Recent milestones: 2022 — Reported avalanche p-¹¹B fusion reactions at PALS, Prague.
