Here is a question for you Jürg.
You mention the tabletop chirped laser, which is becoming commonplace in labs.
Holmlid does not use a particularly robust or chirped laser so this looks like
a grand way to proceed to get better results.
Have you modeled the hydrogen-boron reaction which Miley et al have been
suggesting?
If so, has a tabletop chirped laser experiment been designed to explore and
characterize this reaction? Presumably it would be neutron-free. Seems
reasonable that this can be scaled down to where almost good lab could do it,
yet there are few reports of successful efforts.

The laser setup at Livermore is a dead dinosaur. Today tabletop chirp pulsed
lasers can get the 1000 fold energy density of LL ignition factory with a
fraction of the input energy. The EU will soon be ready with such an laser.
But this will not change the result of the alleged confinement fusion as
fusion is not a function of confinement only. Somebody should tell these folks
that in fact the Hydrogen (deuterium) bomb is a Lithium bomb and thus still
fission not fusion...First think then understand then design experiments.

Miley and other respected experts have been pushing for this kind of
implementation - for some dozen or more years. It could allow for a factor of
several orders of magnitude reduction in laser energy needed and be far cleaner
(almost neutron-free).
