The creation of this high flux of photons is
associated with release of large numbers of neutrons within the
tungsten target....
... what is a "large numbers of neutrons"? Rather subjective, no?
At the same voltage, a Farnsworth Fusor can produce about a
hundred thousand neutrons per second. That sounds "large", but it
is at least five orders of magnitude below breakeven.
Given that the Fusor results are rock solid, going back thirty
years, those numbers can be used as an objective basis for
determining "how large is large" ... so the statement could be
true, if the acutal numbers are in the same range as the Fusor,
yet still be not even close to breakeven - if that was an intended
implication. Half-full or half-empty?
