WAFER FUSION: Ultra-Compact Distributed Proton-Boron Power from Thin-Wire Arrays

The reactor is built as a thin wafer through which a diborane-bearing gas flows. If the predicted alignment, reciprocal recognition, facelock capture and nuclear retiling occur, fusion produces three charged alpha particles whose motion could be collected directly as electricity, avoiding a steam cycle.

The book develops the physical mechanism, wafer geometry, alignment statistics, output scaling, direct electrical collection, fuel handling, manufacturing routes, commercial costs and deployment from 10 kW modules to 10 GW plants. It estimates a mature lifetime-averaged reactor-to-bus cost of about £0.05–£0.20 per megawatt-hour, (not kilowatt-hour) subject to experimental confirmation. The concept remains unverified, so the book defines staged tests, safety limits and falsification routes.
