Calculations were performed to quantify the damage parameters in the leading candidate structural and plasma facing materials when used in magnetic and inertial confinement fusion systems and when irradiated in fission reactors. The structural materials considered are ferritic steel, austenitic steel, vanadium alloy and SiC/SiC composite. Plasma facing materials included beryllium, tungsten, an...

In August 2021, at the National Ignition Facility of Lawrence Livermore Laboratory in USA, a 1.35 MJ fusion yield was obtained. It is demonstration validity Inertial Confinement Fusion approach to achieve energy-efficient thermonuclear laboratory. historical milestone that scientific community has achieved after decades efforts.

A program has been written to model the evolution of the cryogenic ice layer during the layering of a target for inertial confinement fusion. The program simulates the thermal diffusion in the layering sphere, as well as the sublimation and deposition of the deuterium. This will facilitate the design and production of more-uniform targets. It has been found that any nonuniformities caused by th...

Abstract Tokamak and inertial confinement fusion(ICF) are two kinds of devices to achieve fusion. Magnetic gravitational fields the drivers used in tokamak ICF, respectively. In other fusion like MIF, both them used. this work, different from these mentioned above, a new promising method confine plasma is proposed. Spacial distribution energy high-speed changing magnetic field simulated. This e...

The potential use of the proton-antiproton annihilation reaction as a driver for an inertially confined, magnetically insulated fusion plasma with application to advanced space propulsion is examined. The fusion scheme utilized is the magnetically insulated inertial confinement fusion (MICF) concept which combines the favorable aspects of both inertial and magnetic fusions into one. Using an ap...
