Gamma-based nuclear fusion measurements at inertial confinement fusion facilities
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 Experiments performed on an inertial confinement fusion (ICF) platform offer a unique opportunity to study nuclear reactions, including reaction branches that are useful for diagnostic applications in ICF experiments as well as several that are relevant ...

KEYFRAME-BASED VISUAL-INERTIAL SLAM USING NONLINEAR OPTIMIZATION [PDF]
, 2013 The fusion of visual and inertial cues has become popular in robotics due to the complementary nature of the two sensing modalities. While most fusion strategies to date rely on filtering schemes, the visual robotics community has recently turned to non ...

Heat wave fast ignition in inertial confinement energy
High Power Laser Science and Engineering, 2013 An accelerated micro-foil is used to ignite a pre-compressed cylindrical shell containing deuterium–tritium fuel. The well-known shock wave ignition criterion and a novel criterion based on heat wave ignition are developed in this work.

Stochastic homogenization of the laser intensity to improve the irradiation uniformity of capsules directly driven by thousands laser beams [PDF]
, 2011 Illumination uniformity of a spherical capsule directly driven by laser beams has been assessed numerically. Laser facilities characterized by ND = 12, 20, 24, 32, 48 and 60 directions of irradiation with associated a single laser beam or a bundle of NB ...

The role of confinement loss in highly nonlinear silica holey fibers [PDF]
, 2003 Small-core holey fibers (HFs) can offer tight mode confinement, and are, therefore, attractive for highly nonlinear fiber applications. However, we show here that confinement loss can significantly degrade the performance of devices based on such small ...

Femtoscopy for the NAno-Plasmonic Laser Inertial Fusion Experiments (NAPLIFE) Project
UniverseHanbury-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 ...

Mid Century Carbon Free Sustainable Energy Development Based on Fusion Breeding
IEEE Access, 2018 Fusion has often been billed as the ultimate 21st century sustainable energy source. However, not only is the pace of the program glacially slow, it seems to recede further and further into the future.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,
