This make it possible to obtain fusion of the nuclei. A new method of producing energy made its appearance. A proposal to undertake research in order to reach this objective was transmitted to General de Gaulle on November 26, 1962. He approved the idea, and work began immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAndré Brin, Director of the Département de Physique Générale de Limeil of the \u003ci\u003eDirection des Applications Militaires\u003c\/i\u003e (DAM) of the \u003ci\u003eCommissariat à l'Energie Atomique\u003c\/i\u003e (CEA) was in charge of this task. The research centre of CGE, at Marcoussis had to make the lasers for the experiments carried out at Limeil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1967, the lasers built at Marcoussis were thirty times more powerful than those in the rest of the world. The President of the United States asked France for help in this area, and the General immediately agreed. This was the start of a co-operative relationship that continues to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1969 Limeil achieved a laser fusion experiment which had a great importance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJean Robieux shows why it is practically certain that towards 2080, laser nuclear fusion will enable us to produce abundant pollution-free electrical energy at a reasonable cost. If the crucial decisions are taken rapidly and at a high enough level, this objective could probably be reached a bit sooner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe action of this electrical energy on matter, for example a mixture of CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e and H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e, would enable us to produce liquid or easily liquefiable fuels. We would not have to use oil or gas and the greenhouse effect would cease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis energy would also enable us to produce great quantities of food. Today this is done with using energy from the sun. Laser fusion would use the energy contained in the mass of Deuterium, an element found everywhere. Obtaining energy from such a common source could lead to the end of hunger in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n      \u003cb\u003eLaser nuclear fusion would enable mankind to live for countless millennia without having to worry about global warming or hunger.\u003c\/b\u003e\n    \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Editions Louis de Broglie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53841045881174,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9782953099218_1.jpg?v=1781836005","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/jean-robieux-laser-nuclear-fusion-towards-the-end-of-global-warming-abondant-energy-without-pollution-9782953099218","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
