Introduction

I believe I have solved the major problem that has haunted scientists in their quest for creating commercial electric power via nuclear fusion. I am so certain of this, I have spent tens of thousands of dollars and years of work on the project. What is the key? The Ball-of-Light Particle Model explains how spherical waves electric, magnetic, and gravitational fields work. Fusion scientists have been trying to create cylindrical plasmas -- or quasi-cylindrical plasmas in donut-shaped "tokamaks." Every time the plasma follows its natural tendency to form a spherical wave pattern, the fusion scientists find another "instability." The key is to stop fighting the spherical patterns and to use them for our advantage.
