Inertial Confinement Fusion

2021
Inertial confinement fusion, which is another major and equally unsuccessful approach to fusion, is discussed in this chapter. In it a small target filled with deuterium-tritium fuel at high density is imploded in an attempt to create fusion conditions. The most common drivers consist of (multiple) laser beams but beams of particles are also considered.

Inertial Confinement Fusion

1988
Edward Teller has been a strong proponent of harnessing nuclear explosions for peaceful purposes. There are two approaches: Plowshare, which utilizes macro-explosions, and inertial confinement fusion, which utilizes micro-explosions. The development of practical fusion power plants is a principal goal of the inertial program.

Inertial Confinement Fusion

Annual Review of Energy, 1980
The progress inertial confinement fusion (ICF) physics experiments and driver development is put in perspective by looking at the performance required to perform various military and commercial applications. Both the military and commercial applications require increasingly more-powerful drivers and a better understanding of target-coupling physics ...

Electrostatic-Inertial Plasma Confinement

Journal of Applied Physics, 1972
Electrostatic-inertial plasma confinement consists of trapping charged particles in potential wells of the electric field, which are created by ions or electrons injected radially inwards into a hollow sphere or cylinder. Theoretical expressions are derived for the potential and particle densities as functions of radius, grid voltage, and current.
