    Research paper as in published in a physics journal? Good for you. It means you were a visionary person.

    What made you change your mind then?

    ~20 years ago is when I studied fusion at uni

      How could you have studied a field that you’re claiming essentially didn’t exist and nobody thought would exist? The first working Tokamak was build in 1958. There’s no way you studied this in any capacity and came away not knowing this.

      Fusion is a boondoggle, and will never be used to generate electricity outside of using the effects of the sun.

        I studied fusion as million of people around the world, as it is part of the standard curriculum of physics, theoretical chemistry, many branches of engineering. It is one of the most common topic in science. I did not specialized on nuclear fusion.
