Two-Dimensional Ultrafast X-ray Imager for Inertial Confinement Fusion Diagnosis
A two-dimensional ultrafast X-ray imager (UXI) composed of a time-dilation device, an electron-beam imaging unit, a gated microchannel plate (MCP) framing tube, and a pulser was developed.

Magneto-Inertial Fusion and Powerful Plasma Installations (A Review)
A review of theoretical and experimental studies in the field of compression and heating of a plasma target in an external magnetic field, which has recently been called magneto-inertial fusion (MIF), has been carried out.

Linear relaxation to planar Travelling Waves in Inertial Confinement Fusion
We study linear stability of planar travelling waves for a scalar reaction-diffusion equation with non-linear anisotropic diffusion. The mathematical model is derived from the full thermo-hydrodynamical model describing the process of Inertial ...

Self-similar structure and experimental signatures of suprathermal ion distribution in inertial confinement fusion implosions [PDF]
The distribution function of suprathermal ions is found to be self-similar under conditions relevant to inertial confinement fusion hot-spots. By utilizing this feature, interference between the hydro-instabilities and kinetic effects is for the first ...

Inertial floaters in stratified turbulence
We investigate numerically the dynamics and statistics of inertial particles transported by stratified turbulence, in the case of particle density intermediate in the average density profile of the fluid.

Femtoscopy for the NAno-Plasmonic Laser Inertial Fusion Experiments (NAPLIFE) Project
Hanbury-Brown and Twiss analysis is used to determine the size and timespan of emitted particles. Here, we propose to adapt this method for laser-induced nanoplasmonic inertial confinement fusion to determine the parameters of emitted Deuterium and ...

Progress in the shock-ignition inertial confinement fusion concept
Shock-ignition experiments with peak laser intensities of ∼8 × 1015 W/cm2 were performed. D2-filled plastic shells were compressed on a low adiabat by 40 of the 60 OMEGA beams.

Conditional stability of particle alignment in finite-Reynolds-number channel flow
Finite-size neutrally buoyant particles in a channel flow are known to accumulate at specific equilibrium positions or spots in the channel cross-section if the flow inertia is finite at the particle scale.

Fuel-ion diffusion in shock-driven inertial confinement fusion implosions
The impact of fuel-ion diffusion in inertial confinement fusion implosions is assessed using nuclear reaction yield ratios and reaction histories. In T3He-gas-filled (with trace D) shock-driven implosions, the observed TT/T3He yield ratio is ∼2× lower ...
