The role of the fusion-fission hybrid reactor (FFHR) as a fissile fuel and/or power producer is discussed. As long range options to supply the world energy needs, hybrid-fueled thermal-burner reactors are compared to liquid metal fast breeder reactors (LMFBR). A discussion of different fuel cycles (thorium, depleted uranium, and spent fuel) is presented in order to compare the energy multiplication, the production of fissile fuel, the laser efficiency and pellet gain requirements of the hybrid reactor. LLL has collaborated with Bechtel Corporation and with Westinghouse on the conceptual design of laser fusion power plants. The neutronic studies of these two designs are discussed. The operational parameters, such as energy multiplication, power density, burn-up and plutonium production as a function of time, are also presented.

You have to wear your emotions on your sleeve, writing jokes. You take a chance every time you say something that it's not going to get a laugh."
