Fusion power is usually associated with the Tokamak design for plasma confinement. Recent Tokamak studies on plasma confinement suggest that an alternative, the colliding beam fusion reactor, is feasible as a small reactor. Rostoker et al. outline this idea for the reaction of protons with boron-11, which would have the advantages of producing all charged particles that could be directly converted to electricity and low fluxes of neutrons that normally lead to materials fatigue.
