【美国《纽约时报》1988年3月21日第一版报道】在绝密的试验中,美国研究人员已经完成该国费用最高而且十分神秘的科学目标之一:在极小的氢球丸内点燃核聚变反应,同时爆发出巨大能量。据不愿透露姓名的美国科学家和官员们说,这是两年前在内华达沙漠地下核试验基地的非正式试验中获得成功的。这一结果已经引起对小型聚变领域应该如何发展这个问 [The New York Times, March 21, 1988, first edition] In a top-secret experiment, American researchers have completed one of the country’s most expensive and mysterious scientific goals: lighting in tiny hydrogen pellets. Nuclear fusion reaction, at the same time bursting out of great energy. According to an American scientists and officials who did not want to be named, this was an unofficial experiment that was successful two years ago in the underground nuclear test site in the desert of Nevada. This result has caused this question about how small fusion fields should develop.
