Abstract
The proposed design of a fuel pellet containing liquid 3He enclosed in a spherical Be shell of 300 μm thickness and overcoated with D2 solid is described. The pellet appears to be adequate for fueling large-size d/3He tokamaks. Smaller pellets of this design could be used for near-term experiments. The pellet fabrication should be simple and the components are nonradioactive
