In the middle of moving my filming studio, i've been building a nuclear fusion chamber. You know, for science and stuff.

Be careful!! 50kV is MUCH too high. At 50kV it will absolutely blast you with x rays! Usually 10-15kV is totally enough. Unfortunately I see a lot of people use those high voltages in their fusors, even though theyre not necessary. Also it looks like your vacuum is really bad. To me this looks like still 10-100Pa. You need to get to at max 1 Pa (better 0.05) to get a decently shaped Plasma. If your pessure is too high, the atoms' free path is not long enough and they will not concentrate/focus in the middle. I used a two stage professional pump and it is just good enough (bout 7*10^-6bar). You should also watch out for bleeding gasses from the gauge. A gauge like this has oil inside, wich can pollute your vacuum really bad. They dont work in those vacuum levels anyway (you cant tell if its 10Pa or 0.1Pa with them, wich is necessary though).
Furthermore, your vacuum adapter hole is way too small and the tube/hose to the pump is too long.
I worked with mass spectrometers for a few years as a chemist, after that time you get a good feeling for vacuum requirements and neccessary acceleration voltages.
I hope you have a Geiger-Müller counter. I turned mine into a neutron detector (you should have one if your fusor works. Neutrons are even more dangerous than the x Rays in this setup). But that is a long story.

In all seriousness though, this looks cool as hell, and I'm excited to see what comes of it! Keep up the great work, my dude

Awesome work, congrats on joining the fusor club! The power of the sun in the palm of your hand, baby! Stand well back if you try adding deuterium though...not even lead can decently stop neutron radiation. I'd be curious to see what a Geiger counter says the x-ray count is, it might be pretty high with 50kV...maybe a homemade x-ray machine is in order if the fusor falls through, haha!

Personal tip from my experience: if you have trouble with maintaining a vacuum, try using clear JB-Weld epoxy. After letting it cure and warming it up for a while to drive off residual volatiles, it does a great job at sealing! I've gotten below the sacred 30 micron threshold with a single rotary vane pump like yours thanks to that stuff. Good luck man!

Fun fact for all you who didn't know: Nuclear fusion is actually quite easy to achieve (at least in comparison to fission lol), and we have known how to do it for a long time. The hardest part is creating a fusion reaction efficient enough that you actually get energy back out of it. Right now, fusion reactors use more energy than we can feasibly get out of them. Which is why they aren't hooked up to our power grids.

My dude. Use Jb weld to seal any leak points in the line or the connections because the th vacuum seem low, additionally make sure the gaskets in your chamber aren't made of a material that out gasses when under higher fusor level vacuums. Good luck, can't wait to see your first light.

At least for testing, make all tubes as short as possible, minimise all outgassing materials. check the outgassing properties of every component you have. Even a gasket of the wrong material can not let you get within an order of magnitude of an adequate vacuum for a fusor. If the attempt you showed is with it pumped down, seems like you do have way too much gas left in there
Also kinda interested where you'll get the fuel, unless it's only a mock one and you just want to fill the chamber with plasma and have pretty much no actual fusion going on, then you also won't need a vacuum as good.

Thought emporium and applied science in some of their videos (mainly on sputtering) explore the deep vacuum systems, fusors generally work an order of magnitude deeper than sputtering systems.

Hi, a suggestion, could you also try some cold fusion experiments? you do have the expertise for it. maybe you could make some world changing breakthroughs. 🙂

Ionizing hydrogen gas using high voltage is not fusion. There’s no way you’re going to be able to generate sufficient pressures with two acrylic windows for any substantial fusion to take place. At least the shape of your cathode negates the need for any magnetic confinement. Also, the presence of deuterium and tritium would certainly aid in the process of real nuclear fusion.

But if you just wanted to look cool, you can lower the pressure in the chamber to some value below atmospheric pressure which will result in plasma being generated around the entirety of the cathode structure. This is due to their being fewer hydrogen molecules per unit of space therefore making it more difficult for the electrons to form a path from the cathode to the anode with an ark (Like seen in the video) As the gas becomes less electrically conductive, electrons will collect on all parts of the cathode which will result in the ionization of nearby hydrogen. The voltage will be sufficient enough to generate plasma around the cathode, but insufficient to generate a single arc from the cathode to the anode due to the decreased conductivity of the gas. Much like a neon light.
