The entire controllable fusion battery project was broken into thirteen sub-projects, and this covered everything from laser ignition to electric generators. A total of six research institutes participated in the project.
Due to the success of the Pangu fusion reactor, Lu Zhou felt quite confident regarding this project.
However, there had been disagreement during the discussion regarding the fusion battery nuclear fuel.
As Sheng Xianfu listened to Lu Zhou's crazy plan, his mouth was wide open with amazement. After a while, he spoke in disbelief.
"Are you sure you want to use helium-3 as fuel? The reaction cross-section of helium-3 and deuterium is one-tenth of the deuterium-tritium reaction, but the difficulty of ignition is ten times more difficult than deuterium-tritium!"
He wasn't the only one that held this viewpoint. The chief engineer from the China National Nuclear Corporation, Academician Wang Zengguang, also nodded.
