The Mode M closing point — frozen and reproducible

2026-08-02T16:00:00+00:00 — Kronos Fusion Energy

The burner's reproducible closing point is frozen at Q_E 1.31 and fₙ 5.44%, with net electric scaling from +104 to +2832 MWe by length.

Kronos froze the burner's reproducible closing design point (Mode M): engineering gain Q_E 1.31 and a neutron fraction of 5.44% — low-neutron, not aneutronic — with net electric of +104 / +850 / +2832 MWe at 55 / 440 / 1400 m. The result is requirement-class: it depends on an end-plug density about 16× the central cell, published openly alongside the number.
