subcritical fission blanket design

Cortex Fusion Systems develops nuclear energy technology using ultrafast lasers. Its work spans fusion energy, hybrid fusion-fission reactors, and laser uranium enrichment. The company states its fusion approach uses ultrafast lasers with underdense targets, direct laser acceleration, and Laguerre-Gauss beams with orbital angular momentum. Its hybrid fusion-fission reactor is described as a subcritical assembly that cannot sustain criticality. It also claims laser uranium enrichment using commodity broadband lasers with single-pass high assay. The compan
