Here is what was shared, including some raw video footage, of what happened when a small tungsten rod was exposed to plasma in a Safire type 2 chamber. https://vid.puffyan.us/watch?v=7y46wMAHnsI
As far as I am presently aware, a Farnsworth Fusor has not produced multiple plasma layers.
>> but not useful for a sustained fusion reaction.
The plasma in Safire meets the definition of "sustained fusion reaction", but whether this particular sustained fusion reaction is useful or not is a legitimate bigger question.
Perhaps I am biased because, most of my experience with plasma chambers has been involved in physical presence in laboratory settings.
>> I did my masters in Tokamak simulation
I think "simulation" is the key difference between what you did and those who are doing real laboratory work. Tesla lamented that too much in theoretical mathematics was being done in place of lab work.
I am honestly very disappointed that the essential characteristics between a Safire type 2 chamber and a Farnsworth Fusor are so clear to me, yet someone who has a "masters" (implies master degree) seems to struggle to spot the differences quickly.
The guys from the LLNL team were keen on immediately recognizing the differences, so no need to lose faith in humanity or anything here, but still, do they just give out masters degrees like candy now..
This just shows that you have no idea what you're talking about. Not only does Tesla predate the whole field of computational physics, but computational physics is distinct from both theoretical mathematics and lab work.
And I asked a simple question-- how is a SAFIRE constructed or operated? Still no answer!
Just FYI. You're not effectively refuting the pseudoscience claim with this.
Here's a hint if you need it spelled out for you: nobody gives a shit if you think this is "science" or "pseudoscience".

amounts to autistic reee'ing
At least I understand the concept of scientific proof. And "thEre'S A viDeO oN teH iNteRweBs!" doesn't cut it.
Have a nice life.
The Safire plasma team doesn't even announce "weRe doinG ScIeNCe", all they are doing is presenting "here's what we did, here's what we found".
If you believe what they did "isn't science", then what you believe is not "they didn't follow the scientific method", what you believe is they did not do Science™ which amounts to orthodoxy ie religion.
As far as I have seen from the Safire plasma team, they run experiments and share their findings, then make hypothesis and run more experiments and share more findings. I have watched them do this consistently over several years.
If you want to argue that they aren't doing the "scientific method" when you aren't even familiar with their years of work, you are very stupid and may God have mercy on your soul.
