Replying to @PomoPsiOp @sigfig and
well i mean if you're using antiprotons the process involved is probably annihilation, not fusion

the idea was antiproton annhiliation in a high-atomic mass producing neutron flux for fusion, weapon part is heat from plasma

but without *really* strong confinement you just get a very transient plasma that cools too much too quickly to be useful

yeah, plasma weapons in fiction that's trying to do the math tend to involve a magnetic containment packet that's kinda like... if you can induce that kind of magnetic flux at arbitrary range, why don't you just do that inside the target

I think I'm going to have to fall back on "Aliens understand magnetoplasma dynamics better than humans do because they have inhuman mindsets and thus different cognitive biases than we do."

Turns out that stars were sentient the whole time, they just think really slowly because they are so huge. If you worship them properly they'll give you the equations that make fusion more practical on a human scale.
