Speculative Plasma Physics
Tubular Pinch
A dynamic pinch with unusual geometry where plasma is compressed into a hollow cylindrical shape for greater stability. Deuterium gas is distributed between end electrodes and insulating walls, with current flowing through plasma to metal walls, creating a magnetic field that pinches and heats the plasma.

Pais Equations Enable Trivial Fusion
Forbes argues Salvatore Pais's equations 7, 8 and 9 match the Navier-Stokes equations and allow magnetic field strength to explode to infinity, which would make fusion trivial.
