High-areal-density fuel assembly in direct-drive cryogenic implosions.
The first observation of ignition-relevant areal-density deuterium from implosions of capsules with cryogenic fuel layers at ignition-relevant adiabats is reported. The experiments were performed on the 60-beam, 30-kJUV OMEGA Laser System [T. R. Boehly, Opt. Commun. 133, 495 (1997)10.1016/S0030-4018(96)00325-2]. Neutron-averaged areal densities of 202+/-7 mg/cm2 and 182+/-7 mg/cm2 (correspondin...
متن کاملDirect-Drive, Cryogenic Target Implosions on OMEGA
78 LLE Review, Volume 102 Introduction Thermonuclear ignition via direct-drive, laser-driven, inertial confinement fusion1 (ICF) will be accomplished by the nearuniform illumination of spherical cryogenic deuterium– tritium (DT) fuel-bearing capsules with high-power laser beams. Achieving thermonuclear ignition and gain will require symmetric compression of the DT-fuel hot spot to high areal de...
متن کاملThermal Loading of a Direct Drive Target in Rarefied Gas
In an inertial fusion energy (IFE) power plant, each fusion micro-explosion (~10 Hz) causes thermal and structural loads on the IFE reactor wall and driver optics. The loading on the wall must remain sufficiently low to ensure that economic and safety constraints are met. One proposed method for decreasing the intensity of the wall loading is to fill the reaction chamber with a gas, such as Xe,...
متن کاملTarget Optimization in Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an emerging neuromodulation therapy that has been experimentally determined to affect a wide range of behaviors and diseases ranging from motor, cognitive, and memory processes to depression and pain syndromes. The effects of tDCS may be inhibitory or excitatory, depending on the relative polarities of electrodes and their proximity to different...
متن کاملModeling DT Vaporization and Melting in a Direct-Drive Target
During injection, inertial fusion energy (IFE) direct drive targets are subjected to heating from energy exchange with the background gas and radiation from the reactor wall. This thermal loading could cause phase change (vaporization and/or melting) of the deuteriumtritium (DT). In the past, it was assumed that any phase change would result in a violation of the stringent smoothness and symmet...
