HB11 Energy's radiationless hydrogen-boron fusion looks simple but requires extreme lasers

https://www.intelligentliving.co/amp/future-fusion-radiationless-hydrogen-boron/

A large empty metal sphere with a hydrogen-boron pellet at the center. Laser 1 sends a pulse to turn the pellet into a plasma. This pulse also creates a magnetic containment field for the plasma. Laser 2 then sends a pulse to trigger an “avalanche” fusion chain reaction. Almost no neutrons emitted and temperatures far lower than other approaches (no steam turbines). High speed alpha particles emerge in a tight beam and pass through coils of wire, moving electrons and producing electricity.

Update: HB11 Energy raised $A 4.6M in an over-subscribed pre-seed financing round
