1. A method of causing fusion between particles, comprising:providing a magnet configured to generate an axial magnetic field;providing a cylindrical chamber located in said magnetic field;providing a target in said cylindrical chamber;providing a discharge electrode located in said cylindrical chamber;providing a voltage between said discharge electrode and an inner surface of said chamber to develop an electric field perpendicular to said magnetic field;supplying hydrogen gas into said cylindrical chamber;applying a voltage between said discharge electrode and an inner surface of said chamber containing said hydrogen gas to thereby create a plasma of ions and neutrals from said hydrogen gas in said chamber;said electric and magnetic fields being configured to cause said plasma of ions and neutrals to rotate within said cylindrical chamber by ion-neutral coupling;providing an electron emitter in said chamber configured to emit a quantity of electrons in said chamber under temperature conditions sufficient to reduce a Coulomb barrier between two approaching nuclei in said plasma by virtue of the collective negative charges of said quantity of electrons;said rotation of ions and neutrals being configured to induce a force that causes hydrogen atoms and protons in said chamber to press against the electron emitter;wherein a fusion reaction is caused to occur between neutral particles in said plasma and said target. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the electron emitter comprises lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6). 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the electron emitter is connected to ground potential. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein said target is stationary within said chamber. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein said target rotates within said chamber. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein rotation of hydrogen atoms in said chamber is configured to cause neutrals and ions to be pushed to an inner surface of the discharge electrode by rotation of hydrogen atoms in said chamber, whereby densities of said neutrals and ions can be increased in dependence on the rate of rotation, resulting in a correspondingly higher rate of fusion, said rate of fusion being proportional to the product of the densities of reactants. 7. The method of claim 2, wherein:collisions between rotating hydrogen atoms and ions and a stationary LaB6 emitter result in increase in temperature of the target, giving rise to additional emitted electrons, thereby creating a further lowering of the Coulomb barrier and causing addition fusion reactions, which release energetic charged particles of MeV energies; said charged particles dissipating their energies inside the LaB6 target, resulting in a higher temperature. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein:ionization of hydrogen by charged particles from fusion is configured to lower the resistivity of the hydrogen medium, giving rise to a higher current between the discharge electrode and an outer electrode in said chamber, where this higher ion current impinges upon the outer electrode such that the increased population of electrons lower the coulomb barrier, enabling additional low-energy ions and neutrals to fuse by their proximity to each other, through quantum tunneling. 9. The method of claim 1, whereinan axial magnetic field is created by said magnet, which causes rotation of fusion reactants, where it produces elements and isotopes from rotating reactants. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein energetic alpha particles (He4) are produced as a result of said fusion reaction; the method further comprising using said energetic alpha particles for direct conversion to electrical energy. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein energetic alpha particles (He4) are produced as a result of said fusion reaction; the method further comprising slowing down said alpha particles, which are emitted in a same direction as original rotating hydrogen atoms, thereby yielding a charging current to an external power supply. 12. The method of claim 1 wherein said target comprises the element Boron having a dominant isotope of B11. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the rotation of ions and neutrals in said chamber causes plasma particles to undergo the following fusion reaction as a result of repeated collisions between B11 and hydrogen neutrals or protons:p+B11→3He4+8.7 MeV energy. 14. A method of causing fusion between particles, comprising:providing a vacuum chamber;providing outer and inner electrodes defining a space therebetween within said vacuum chamber;introducing positive and negative ions into said space within said vacuum chamber;providing a series of alternating current (AC) fields on the circumference of said outer and inner electrodes, thereby driving said positive and negative ions introduced into said space within said vacuum chamber in rotation by an oscillating electric field;providing neutrals into said space, whereby said neutrals are driven in rotation around an axis of said electrodes through collisions with said positive and negative ions; andincreasing the frequency of such AC fields, thereby increasing the rotational speed of rotating ions and neutrals around said axis through resonant wave-particle interactions, said rotating ions and neutrals being configured to thereby cause a fusion reaction among said ions and neutrals.
