    • First large capsule implosions in a frustum-shaped hohlraum 

      Baker, K.L.; Amendt, P.A.; Ross, J.S.; Smalyuk, V.A.; Landen, O.L.; e.a. (AIP, 2023-06)
      We report on the first indirect-drive implosions driven by a dual conical frustum-shaped hohlraum denoted “frustraum” and the experimental tuning campaigns leading up to two layered implosions. The campaign utilized 1.2 ...
    • First Implementation of Gyrokinetic Exact Linearized Landau Collision Operator and Comparison with Models 

      Pan, Qingjiang; Ernst, Darin R.; Crandall, Paul (AIP, 2020-03)
      Gyrokinetic simulations are fundamental to understanding and predicting turbulent transport in magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Previous simulations have used model collision operators with approximate field-particle ...
    • Impact of stalk on directly-driven inertial confinement fusion implosions 

      Gatu Johnson, Maria; Adrian, Patrick J.; Anderson, K.S.; Appelbe, B.D.; Chittenden, J.P.; e.a. (AIP, 2019-12)
      Low-mode asymmetries have emerged as one of the primary challenges to achieving high-performing inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions. In direct-drive ICF, an important potential seed of such asymmetries is the ...
