Where Can I Find Serious Resources on Building a Neutron Producing Fusor Device?

[terryphi]

Hello,

I'm finishing my degree in nuclear engineering and I'm talking to one of my profs about building a neutron producing fusor device as my thesis project. Can anyone please recommend me some good, serious resources on how to actually build these things and how they work.

Hi there,

Congratulations on finishing your degree in nuclear engineering! Building a neutron producing fusor device sounds like an interesting and challenging thesis project.

As for resources, I would recommend starting with some basic research on the principles of nuclear fusion and how fusor devices work. Some good sources for this information include textbooks on nuclear engineering or physics, as well as online articles and videos from reputable sources.

In terms of actually building the device, it would be helpful to consult with experts in the field or reach out to other students who have worked on similar projects. You can also check out online forums and discussion groups specifically for nuclear engineering or fusor enthusiasts.

Additionally, make sure to thoroughly research safety protocols and regulations for handling nuclear materials before starting your project. Safety should always be a top priority in any nuclear engineering endeavor.

Best of luck with your project!
