The Alpha-E Particle Accelerator
Alpha-E is a compact particle accelerator system designed for R&D laboratories and universities. The modular, low-energy system combines the reliability of classical beam-target fusion with the convenience and safety of a household appliance to become a truly unique platform for fusion related research and instruction.
Fusion energy has seen incredible growth as an industry in recent years, and holds the potential to revolutionize our world by providing clean, limitless energy. Yet today, most university students learn about fusion in theory only.
This leaves many graduates with little or no hands-on experience, especially at the undergraduate level. At the same time, while AI has the power to transform fusion technology, its potential remains largely untapped.
Alpha Ring has developed Alpha-E, the world’s first and only affordable, compact, and safe tabletop device that integrates AI and machine learning with fusion research. This breakthrough makes fusion more accessible than ever, empowering the next generation of innovators.
A Complete Turnkey System
The Alpha-E system can be fully operational within hours of delivery and easily integrates with both standard and custom laboratory equipment for a wide range of applications.
The fusion products produced by the Alpha-E depend on the gas supplied and the target material. Standard operating conditions are optimized for low flux for user safety, without sacrificing signal-to-noise.
