Diagnosing inertial confinement fusion ignition

Nuclear Fusion
Fusion ignition by inertial confinement requires compression and heating of the fusion fuel to temperatures in excess of 5 keV and densities exceeding hundreds of g/cc.

Inertial confinement fusion [PDF]

, 1992
This issue of the ICF Quarterly contains seven articles that describe recent progress in Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's ICF program. The Department of Energy recently initiated an effort to design a 1--2 MJ glass laser, the proposed National Ignition Facility (NIF).

One-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of low convergence ratio direct-drive inertial confinement fusion implosions. [PDF]

Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2021
Recent experiments using DT-wetted-foam layers in inertial confinement fusion capsules have demonstrated that the convergence of the implosion can be controlled through varying the initial capsule temperature.

Inertial confinement fusion: a defence context. [PDF]

Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2020
Almost 30 years since the last UK nuclear test, it remains necessary regularly to underwrite the safety and effectiveness of the National Nuclear Deterrent. To do so has been possible to date because of the development of continually improving science and engineering tools running on ever more powerful high-performance computing platforms, underpinned ...

Inertial Confinement Fusion [PDF]

Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 1982
James J Duderstadt and Gregory A Moses 1982 New York: Wiley-lnterscience x + 347 pp price £36 Commercial fusion power has proved elusive. The idea of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) is to compress a 1–2 mm radius pellet containing 50–50 liquid deuterium-tritium to approximately 104 times liquid density and a central temperature of 2 keV.

Diamond spheres for inertial confinement fusion

, 2022
Art. 112001, 5 S.The National Ignition Facility (NIF) will allow scientists to prove the feasibility of inertial confinement fusion (ICF). The success of ICF experiments at NIF will critically depend on the availability of robust targets.
