Laser target fusion

I see that Curtis et al of Colorado State University claim a record production of 2 million fusion neurons per Joule of laser light from a nanowire target array. (Micro-scale fusion in dense relativistic nanowire array plasmas, Nature Communications, published online 14 March 2018) This appears to be based on my electron space charge ion heating mechanism. (R. Jones, Ind. J. Phys., 55B, 397, 1981)
