Record Set for Hottest Temperature on Earth: 3.6 Billion Degrees in

"Scientists have produced superheated gas exceeding temperatures of

Fahrenheit. ...They don't know how they did it.
The result may be due to establishing an efficient nuclear heat
sampling regime that taps zero point energy from the nuclei. See:

Eliminating tungsten increases the mean velocity of the remaining
iron atoms, and reduces the number of atoms not completely stripped
of electrons. It also increases the nuclear heat, for the W atoms
replaced, from 5.5 billion deg. K to 12.2 billion deg. K. Increasing
the wire thickness increases the current density and charge density
in the pinch, thus making for a much better nuclear sampling sampling
rate, i.e. rate of electron interactions with Fe nuclei that remove
nuclear heat. The effects are exponential, because the hot electrons
resulting from one sampling are even better at sampling the next
nucleus encountered. All the above synergies work in a combined way
to produce surprising results.
