    • Direct Measurements of DT Fuel Preheat from Hot Electrons in Direct-Drive Inertial Confinement Fusion 

      Christopherson, A.R.; Betti, R.; Forrest, C.J.; Howard, J.; Theobald, W.; e.a. (APS, 2021-07)
      Hot electrons generated by laser-plasma instabilities degrade the performance of laser-fusion implosions by preheating the DT fuel and reducing core compression. The hot-electron energy deposition in the DT fuel has been ...

    • Weakly Magnetized, Hall Dominated Plasma Couette Flow 

      Flanagan, K.; Milhone, J.; Egedal, J.; Endrizzi, D.; Olson, J.; e.a. (APS, 2020-09)
      A novel plasma equilibrium in the high-β, Hall regime that produces centrally-peaked, high Mach number Couette flow is described. Flow is driven using a weak, uniform magnetic field and large, cross field currents. Large ...

    • Design of an inertial fusion experiment exceeding the Lawson criterion for ignition 

      Kritcher, A.L.; Zylstra, A.B.; Callahan, D.A.; Hurricane, O.A.; Weber, C.R.; e.a. (APS, 2022-05)
      We present the design of the first igniting fusion plasma in the laboratory by Lawson’s criterion that produced 1.37 MJ of fusion energy, Hybrid-E experiment N210808 (August 8, 2021) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 075001 (2022)]. ...
