Inertial Confinement

Description

Inertial confinement fusion is one possibility for energy production in the future. Hydrogen isotopes would be packaged into a tiny fuel pellet, which is fired into the fusion chamber. Here, intense laser beams would heat the pellet walls, making them implode and compress the hydrogen to make it fuse into heavier elements. This releases a blast of energy in the form of photons and neutrons, which can be captured and converted to electricity.

Modeled and rendered in Blender (using cycles).
