Inertial Fusion Driven by Intense Heavy-ion Beams
Intense heavy-ion beams have long been considered a promising driver option for inertial-fusion energy production. This paper briefly compares inertial confinement fusion (ICF) to the more-familiar magneticconfinement approach and presents some advantages of using beams of heavy ions to drive ICF instead of lasers. Key design choices in heavy-ion fusion (HIF) facilities are discussed, particula...
متن کاملIntense Electron and Ion Beams
Material characteristics versus the number of electrons in the valence atom shell not used in the previously published papers are presented here. The electric field interaction with the collective electrons and the ion skeletons of the electrode material result in the initiation of the plasma formation (ecton) on the surface of one of the electrodes and the breakdown of the interelectrode gap. ...
متن کاملStatus Report "focussing of Intense Ion Beams"
In the Winterberg scheme, a charge neutralized intense high-Z ion beam is axially injected into a mirror magnetic field, where it undergoes isothermal compression without significant loss of forward beam velocity. During compression , an azimuthal current is induced in the beam which then leads to ohmic heating of the beam. Simultaneously, the beam density increases to a collision dominated reg...
متن کاملWith Intense Ion and Laser Beams
Laser driven particle acceleration and measurements ofion energy loss in plasma largely rely on suitable targets toachieve good particle beam and plasma quality. Recent re-search results [2] indicate that cryogenic targets allow forvery high ion energies. Advantages of our cryogenic tar-gets include high purity at solid density in a self-supportedstructure as well as fit...
متن کاملHeavy Ion Beams for Inertial Fusion
The United States' program in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) is described in this paper, with emphasis on the studies of the use of intense high energy beams of heavy ions to provide the power and energy nkeded to initiate thermonuclear burn. Preliminary calculations of the transport of intense ion beams in an electrostatic quadrupole focussing structure are discussed. In a companion paper i...
