President and Chief Scientist at LPPFusion, the company behind Focus Fusion.
I have been active in dense plasma focus (DPF) research for 30 years. Beginning in 1984, I developed a detailed quantitative theory of the functioning of DPF. Based on this theory, I proposed that the DPF could achieve high ion and electron energies at high densities, suitable for advanced fuel fusion and space propulsion. Focus Fusion is the fruit of decades of labor by a team of scientists and my hope for a more prosperous world.
