Abstract
The experimental observation of a laser‐driven spherical implosion has been reported by a group at KMS Fusion, Inc. in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The KMS group has observed what they believe to be thermonuclear neutrons produced in pellets of both deuterium and deuterium–tritium. Results were announced by KMS Industries in a press release on 13 May; subsequent experiments were discussed with PHYSICS TODAY by Keith Brueckner (who had been serving as chief scientist at KMS Fusion and is now returning to the University of California, La Jolla) and Robert Hofstadter (who is now chief scientist at KMS Fusion but will return to Stanford University in the fall).
