“Compact Fusion” (Horace R. Drew)

Thanks to lifeiswhatyoumakeit for posting about this on the Always Open thread. He asks “Is anyone here aware of the work of Dr Horace Drew and what he terms “Compact Fusion” ?”

I had not heard of him until now, and some searching on X and found a couple of recent tweets from Dr. Horace R. Drew (@RedCollie1) which include video of a device he is experimenting in.

This device shows the physics of a new device which may produce "compact fusion".
Two spin-waves move in opposite directions, and collide with one another, when we use high-voltage DC power for two electrodes, yet AC power 50 Hz for an electromagnet.
Those head-on collisions of… pic.twitter.com/4N80CR6C2j

When we use high-voltage DC power for the two electrodes, and DC power for the electromagnet, then the blue argon cations spin in just one direction, do NOT collide, and remain relatively COOL. pic.twitter.com/xazibDfhmP
