History
Perhapsatron
Videos
Page
The Perhapsatron was an early fusion power device based on the pinch concept in the 1950s. Conceived by James (Jim) Tuck while working at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), he whimsically named the device on the chance that it might be able to create fusion reactions.
The Lorentz force created by a lightning strike crushed this hollow lightning rod and led to the discovery of the pinch technique.
