While at the core the experiment successfully released more energy than was put into it this is not true for the entire experiment. To put 2.05 MJ into it (getting out 3.15 MJ) the lasers require about 322 MJ of energy (which have been left out of the calculation alltogether).

Isn't the point to acheive sustained output after start up in the end? This at least shows that is possble to engineer now.

It worked fine here-But I made the choice to read the original-and used the translated where there was word I could not translate inside my head.

Yes to the first, no to the second.
The released energy needs to be in a different form to maintain a reaction (fast particles aren't gonna do it).

Probably caused by tha ad-blocker and/or the script-blocker.

Ah yes, I know that hassle.
