Patent Analysis Research in Israel

12 Entities 9 Timeline Events 3 Relationships 12 Glossary Terms

Patent Analysis research in Israel represents a significant strand of the broader defense technology ecosystem tracked by this institute. This page consolidates open-source intelligence — network graph entities, timeline events, glossary definitions, and primary source documents — relevant to PAT activity attributable to Israel. The Israel network graph surfaces 12 entities with direct relevance to patent analysis, including Oded Gour-Lavie, Dr. Alexander Fedotov Gefen, Dr. Leonid Beilin, Dr. Alexander Rososhek, ELI-Beamlines, among others. These nodes are connected by 3 documented relationships (leadership, funding, collaboration, or technology transfer), which can be explored in full via the interactive network graph below. The unified research timeline records 9 events linking Israel to patent analysis, spanning 1994 through 2026. Notable entries include "Joint US-Russian MAGO MTF experiment begins", "MH370 three orb event (March 8, 2014): first documented operational use of Trivergence Protocol, three FRC plasma orbs, Gorgon Stare + MQ-9 footage", "Bussard Polywell WB-8 (2009-2015): Navy-funded, beta-one conditions achieved, p-B11 aneutronic, EMC2/China Lake — orb confinement geometry", and more, each cross-referenced against declassified PDFs, patent filings, and conference proceedings. Understanding patent analysis in the Israel context requires situating it within the global competition for advanced aerospace and energy technology. The entities and events catalogued here illustrate how Israel participates in — or diverges from — the U.S.-led research trajectory that spans Project Sherwood, the ARPA-E ALPHA program, AATIP/AARO, and the contemporary SBIR/STTR pipeline. Where Israel maintains parallel or indigenous programs, the network graph reveals technology-transfer pathways, shared personnel, and co-authored publications that would otherwise remain obscured across siloed datasets. All data on this page is derived from publicly available sources: declassified Department of Energy and Department of Defense documents, USPTO patent records, DTIC technical reports, and peer-reviewed plasma physics literature. The intelligence is structured to support forensic cross-referencing — every entity links to a detailed dossier (where available), every timeline event links to its primary-source PDF, and every glossary term links to a verified definition with citation trails.
