Abstract
A method and apparatus for dissociating steam in a fusion reaction central chamber. The charged particle energy from an ignited fusion fuel pellet is directed to and distributed in a suitable volume of steam, bringing the steam to temperature and pressure conditions leading to dissociation into hydrogen and oxygen. The resulting atomic and molecular velocities are sufficiently high to allow egress of the separated products through a suitable shaped nozzle prior to recombination, making it practical to separate and capture the dissociated products.
