The Secret Force for Limitless Energy? Lasers | Tammy Ma | TED

In 2022, physicist Tammy Ma and the team at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory achieved a scientific breakthrough decades in the making: fusion ignition, or the combining of two atoms to generate more energy out of a reaction than was put in - recreating on Earth the same process that powers the Sun. She explains how they used a giant laser (way, way bigger than you're thinking) to catalyze this reaction and shares a vision for how this technology could change the world by creating limitless clean energy.

they didn't get more energy out than they put in, they are only counting the laser power hitting the target. if you count the energy required to create the laser pulse they got way less than 1% back. also each fuel pellet costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to make and produces enough energy to make a pot of coffee

[@bartroberts1514]

2024 marks the 42nd anniversary of my involvement in a laser-initiated fusion research project, and is also the 90th anniversary of laboratory fusion, by Rutherford and Oliphant. This TED talk is saying exactly what my project team was discussing over four decades ago, with zero actual progress toward practical commercial fusion electricity generation. Optimum fusion reactions require 1:1 D-T ratio to reduce initiation temperature to 100 million K, and pressures of only 10 atmospheres; this produces 17.6 MeV raw power (~14.1:3.5 neutron:alpha particle), or ~2.8 x 10^-12J. Each D-T pair requires in excess of 10^-9 J to produce from water and Lithium, including mining and transportation (almost all of that on the Tritium side). Now, in case you're not good at engineering math, that means it takes almost three thousand times as much energy to fuel each fusion reaction as you get out of the reaction. The energy created eclipses -- if done right -- the 100 million K and 10 atmosphere initiation condition, but not by so much that containment is lost. Why does this matter? Because researchers hope somehow to get conditions that sustain H-H fusion or some combination of other fusions that make closer to 100% of available atoms give up their energy in the contained reaction. That would be great. It is also nothing anyone knows how to do, or has the least empirical evidence can be done. All available theory and evidence suggests it's impossible. And that's before the capture efficiency of about 6:1 and the energy it takes to create the 100 million K and 10 atmospheres of pressure. Sure, a cunning Physicist could then use the reaction for D-D fusion by some kind of bootstrapping, in which case almost 100 times as much energy could theoretically be gotten out per atom as goes into the fuel, but that rapidly reduces to net energy deficit, too. You have to get virtually every atom involved fused. You have to do it without higher containment or sustainment energy costs. You have to convert that heat from fusion into electricity. And if the flame goes out, you have to restart it. We have the solutions to none of these problems. Commercial electric production by fusion under the conditions we have on Earth will never be feasible. We've known this for nine decades.

One of the points she's been skipping over is that the required pressure and temperature for a fusion between hydrogen and deuterium are pretty extreme. Most research is concentrating on different fusion reactions for example with tritium which would require significantly less pressure and temperature Which itself is radioactive and only exists in minuscule amounts on earth. Further fusion reactions have been recently suggested and are being researched. It's exciting research. Super expensive - but the reward would be valuable beyond turning lead into gold.

[@nicolasmaldonado1428]

It's not even close, she didn't account for laser efficiency, which is something around 10%. This means the output needs to be 10x what they put in. And that doesn't even include the efficiency of the electric grid.

[@nicolasmaldonado1428]

You were very careful to point out that the energy that comes out was twice the energy put in by the laser. But totally forgot to mention the efficiency of the laser itself, which I think is something around 10%. This is why it doesn't work right now. It stills needs to produce 10x more energy than the laser to break even the electric input, and this is not even counting the efficiency of the electric grid. We are not even close. It's a goal worth pursuing but it's very disingenuous to picture it like this. We are going to learn a lot during this process which is by itself a worthy goal, but I don't see fusion as a viable energy source. All this money should be going to geothermal research.

[@balasubr2252]

We already have enough solar energy that is unused for doing vertical farming or desalination. Physicists are not interested in improving the standard of living of the poor or feeding the poor. They are on an ego trip with no purpose whatsoever.

[@Ghost-pb4ts]

Money could go to both. In a free country, you're allowed to do research with your own money. Solar panels and wind energy will outcompete fusion and fission in my opinion. If someone found a way to store the excess energy generated during peak times, that would be valuable. Also, consider the return on investment. Fusion technology doesn't exist yet and who knows how expensive it's going to be. Fission has a poor return on investment, while solar panels have a return on investment of 4-5 years. Many windmills and solar panels are actually stopped during peak power generation because the grid can't handle that much energy

[@TheTruthAccordingToMe]

Awesome news!!

[@SeanLumly]

I think fusion is critical, and will be transformative in enabling new expressions in developed society. Yes. 100%. However our current problems are those with the allocation of resources, not the requirement of MORE energy. For example, desalination is talked about, not because of direct human consumption, or industry, but the demands of animal agriculture. And yes, this can be alleviated by desalination, but not the ravaging, downstream effects of animal agriculture (eg. deforestation, carbon release, etc). Not so ironically, today's problems are already trivially solvable, but the capitalist class are making money with the status quo and show little motivation to change. Another example: most energy needed is for heating, and it's not close. Dig holes. Shallow geothermal has been known for 100 years, is virtually free (after installation -- which itself can be optimized) and can be deployed anywhere. But we're hooked on oil. Similar can be said about transportation, cars being particularly inefficient, dangerous, loud, expensive, and require exorbitant land use. We have solutions for that too, and have had for well over 100 years.

[@nicolasmaldonado1428]

Fusion is BS. She didn't mention the efficiency of the laser itself or the power grid. The laser has an efficiency of 10%, that means they need to produce 10x more energy than they put in (plus whatever the power grid efficiency is). Capitalists such as google are investigating heavily in geothermal which is the only good renewable power source. And capitalists such as Bill Gates are investing heavily in fusion, which is our mid term solution.

[@julesvandijck5022]

In theory this sounds perfect, but in practice there are many downsides, like safety, costs and scalibility. This technology will only be implemented on a large scale in 30-40 years, and in that period the world must already be energy neutral. Also, the costs/kwh are 3-4x higher than of solar and wind, which are easily scalable and intergratable in the current energy grid. It was just announced that Europe generated more electricity using wind and solar compared with fossil fuels, and this only seems to grow exponentially. I believe focusing on wind and solar will provide for most of our energy needs in the future. The only thing we need to fix is their intermittency through the use of batteries. This technology is also growing rapidly, and I believe in 5-10 years there will be cheap batteries on the market, enough to convince households to invest in such batteries, in turn reducing the problems of intermittency.

[@ctcboater]

It's highly unlikely that Fusion research will ever find a "game changing" process, so they will be ever-chasing other advanced energy technologies. Maybe it could be useful for interstellar travel, but I can't buy a ticket for that yet.

[@millmaster413]

Safety and costs are definitely not true. It is much safer than coal or other fossil fuels and it has a is cheaper than fossil fuels and only expensive in the fact that it’s more expensive than the rest of the renewable energy sources. However, unlike those other renewable sources, it is not variable. So overall it is actually cheaper(well at least fission is).

hard to put a price tag on the literal definition of unlimited energy in my opinion.

[@TheNickoslicK]

@@abigailandino6251 Fission is colliding Atoms, separating the protons and neutrons that make up the neucleus of the Atom and releasing the relatively tiny amount of energy which held them together, relative to the combined energy or mass of the full Atom. Fusion is orders of magnitude greater in energy released. It is the same process that happens inside a star where the huge gravitational force pushing in is met by the huge outward pressure of fusion within. So great is the aggregate pressure that at the smallest scale it causes 2 Atoms of Hydrogen to fuse together creating 1 new lighter Atom of Helium. The excess energy released is more or less equivalent to the difference in mass of the new single lighter atom and the two previous heavier atoms. For simplicity if hydrogen is 10 units of energy and helium is 6 units of energy that would be 20 (2x10) - 6 = 14. So we started with 20 units of locked up Hydrogen energy but released 14 units of excess energy (heat, light and radiation) leaving behind a single 6 unit of energy Helium Atom. Long winded, but it’s no problem at all on my part and hope it helps. In simplistic terms it’s the same process we would achieve, just with 2 atoms of Deuterium instead of hydrogen!

Here's a thought: however much energy you create, people will find a way to waste. Even if you got fusion energy working, there would still be the problem of waste heat unless it's 100% efficient. The key to limitless energy: It's to use LESS. Become more energy efficient. There's limitless energy if you just use less. No matter how efficient you are, you can always be more efficient. So really, you are concentrating on the wrong science. We need regulations forcing energy efficiency, not more money thrown at generating more electricity that will be wasted. And honestly there should be an energy tax (I'm thinking 1000% ought to do it) on frivolous uses of electricity such as AI and blockchain.

God loves you and cares for you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this large universe and controls it completely. The greatest loss a person loses in this life is that he lives without knowing God who created him and knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. Great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and after that you have the choice to believe in it or not to believe in it. I advise you to do this now, before you no longer have time to do so. Life is very short. It is just a test, just a passage to eternal life. Great advice to those who... Understands
