Dense plasma focus
A dense plasma focus is a machine that produces, by electromagnetic acceleration and compression, a short-lived plasma that is so hot and dense that it can cause nuclear fusion and emit X-rays.

Neutron howitzer
Neutron howitzers were used by Otto Hahn, Fritz Strassman and Lise Meitner in 1938 to bombard uranium nuclei with neutrons in the hopes of making transuranic elements.
