Halve That

There may be a misunderstanding derived from the piece below that the density of the centre of the sun must be achieved by the acclerated plasma for the fusion to work.

In fact the final density recquired to be achieved for each plasma jet is half the density of the centre of the sun. When the plasma jets hit each other and combine, after the plasma jets hit each other head on, the density achieved is double the density of the individual plasma jets. Thus the final density achieved will be the density at the centre of the sun if the final density achieved for each plasma jet is only half the density of the centre of the sun.

Achieving a density of half the density of the centre of the sun by acceleration is far more easy to achieve. Only half the acceleration is required.

Similarly the relative velocity calculated to penetrate the coulomb barrier is double the velocity which is required the be achieved for each plasma jet. The velocity required for each plasma jet is half the relative velocity required to penetrate the coulomb barrier.
