This topic has come to mind in instances of descriptive nomenclature about
the essentials of why "This Should Work".  As a title, we feel that it is
necessary to develop the capital relationships of an essential reaction that

Are there any applications for fusion in the Bose condensate technology?

I see that a fission reactor has ~intimate physical contact with some
substance to get the heat out and use it to run a classic steam
turbine.
What is the equivalent mechanism in all the proposed fusion reactors?

As we improve our nanoscopic manufacturing skills, is there a chance
that we will start to be able to focus particle beams to the point that
collider fusion might become feasable?

I once worked for Professor Rotblat who never forgave himself for being a
project leader for the Los Alamos Project and had the original notes in his
book case. I pinched these priceless documents because the files were nice
but looked at these pages and soon realised they gave ...

It does sound like the Koreans are using the new technology electrically
ignited "hydrogen" bomb.
These can be made from a yield of a few pounds of TNT to megatons of TNT for
less than $10 and are only a few grams. A 1 KT bomb would be made from about

A few years before 1900, the French scientist Branly has discovered a
phenomenon that has been used sometimes in radio communications. This
phenomenon is the change of electric conductivity of a metallic powder by an
electric current or an electromagnetic wave. The effect is ...
