Fusion with help of accelerators?

[Velikovsky]

If this is for real why is not used to generate power?Could you give some ref. on such experiments?

Hi Stanley, I found this link on Ion Beam Fusion at Berkeley National Laboratory, University of California. Very promising work by the look of things!

Because it doesn't generate net power. It uses more than it produces.
