Effect of cross-beam energy transfer on target-offset asymmetry in direct-drive inertial confinement fusion implosions
(AIP, 2020-05)The unintentional mispositioning of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) capsules from the center of laser beam convergence has long been shown in simulations to generate large ℓ = 1 asymmetry and significantly degrade implosion ... -
A second order yield-temperature relation for accurate inference of burn-averaged quantities in multi-species plasmas
(AIP, 2020-10)Measured yields and ion temperatures inferred from the fusion product energy spectra can be used as metrics for the performance of an ICF implosion. This can be to infer species separation, thermal decoupling, flows or ... -
Laser-direct-drive fusion target design with a high-Z gradient-density pusher shell
(APS, 2023-07)Laser-direct-drive fusion target designs with solid deuterium-tritium (DT) fuel, a high-Z gradient-density pusher shell (GDPS), and a Au-coated foam layer have been investigated through both 1D and 2D radiationhydrodynamic ...
