The WARP Reactor Concept

The WARP Reactor Concept promises orders of magnitude increase of intense ion beam energies and respective radiation yields at a fraction of the size and cost over existing z-pinch class accelerators allowing the economically viable study of new Relativistic High Energy Density Physics regimes for probing the intersection between General Relativity and Quantum Field Theory along with game-changing direct applications from reprated Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion devices for energy production and advanced propulsion to multi-pulse compact flash x-ray/neutron radiography sources for assessing our Nation’s aging nuclear weapons stockpile. A brief overview of the WARP Reactor Concept is provided here with more in-depth treatment with additional figures and tables provided in the companion PPC2023 conference presentation.
