Power balance analysis of alternative (not D-T) fusion cycles is carried out to find high efficiency and lowradioactivity cycles for fusion reactors based on high-beta magnetic systems, such as field reversed configuration (FRC), spherical tokamak, etc. Cycles based on reactions D-D, D-³He, D-⁶Li, D-⁷Be, p-⁶Li, p-⁹Be, and p-¹¹B are considered.
