The funding proposal also includes money for a
neutral particle beam effort which will "design, develop and conduct a feasibility demonstration for a space-based directed energy intercept layer," the documents said.

neutral particle inside a two-dimensional quantum ring," The European Physical Journal Plus, vol.
Every time we find a hint of a new
neutral particle that could account for this missing energy-or a new search method-it offers us a window into the universe that we must explore."
In the vacuum vessel, the fuel which is deuterium and tritium, will be heated with microwaves, electricity and
neutral particle beams from neutral beam injector.
He suggested that there must be an undetected
neutral particle that was being produced by the decay.
A
neutral particle such as a neutron, photon, or neutrino has only a real energy.
Petersburg, Russia has developed and offers to others a range of plasma diagnostics and
neutral particle analyzers.
The topics covered include neoclassical transport,
neutral particle transport, power balance, and fusion reactors and neutron sources.
If such a
neutral particle existed, however, it would be difficult to detect, for the various devices for detecting subatomic particles all depended on the electric charge these particles carried.
Existing fusion experiments have reached record-high temperatures using large
neutral particle beam injectors running for several seconds at power levels up to 30 MW and energies up to 120 kV.
High-power microwaves, "several flavors of lasers" and
neutral particle beam weapons are also on his shopping list.
Shinichi Ishida, Head of Tokamak Program Division at JAERI said, "This means an important technical accomplishment for continuous injection of a negative-ion based
neutral particle beam in the fusion reactors." Such beams are planned for use on ITER.
