- px43 4y agoI'm not really seeing any convincing numbers there. Mercury lasers seem to only be 10% efficient. I get that this is better than the lasers that were just used at NIF, but that still seems pretty far from useful.
- Robotbeat 4y agoIt’s useful enough to produce significant net energy if they continue with the gain scaling that ignition allows.
