FUSOR

What is a Farnsworth Fusor?

A fusor is a small device capable of fusing small amounts of deuterium ions. It does so by heating up these ions using an electric field inside a vacuum. As the ions are accelerated towards the center, the chances of two ions colliding and producing fusion increases.
