Abstract:
Provided are apparatuses and methods for producing helium-3 by a reactor with a confining wall that encloses a confinement region within which charged particles and neutrals rotate. A plurality of electrodes is positioned adjacent to the confinement region. A control system having a voltage source applies an electric potential between the plurality of electrodes to generate an electric field within the confinement region to induce rotational movement of the charged particles and the neutrals therein. A reactant is disposed in the confinement region. Repeated collisions between the neutrals and the reactant produce a product having a nuclear mass that is different from a nuclear mass of the nuclei of the neutrals and the reactant. The product includes at least helium-3, and sometimes also includes helium-4.

Claim (Index 5):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n phase separation equipment coupled with the reactor allowing for fluid communication there-between, wherein the phase separation equipment receives a mixture of helium-3 with helium-4 to cool the mixture beneath a transition temperature to cause helium-4 to assume properties of a superfluid; and a filter for the helium-4 in superfluid form from the helium-3 in remaining the phase separation equipment.
