Two Storage Rings, which may or may not initially be needed, added to each of the Colliders increases the intensity of the Heavy Ion Beams making it comparable to the Total Energy delivered to the DT target by the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore Lab. The basic Physics involved gives Heavy Ion Fusion an advantage over Laser Fusion because heavy ions have greater penetration power than photons. The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider can be used as a Prototype Heavy Ion Fusion Reactor for the Large Hadron Collider. %K Heavy Ion Fusion %K Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider %K Large Hadron Collider %K Inertial Confinement Fusion %K National Ignition Facility %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=132624
