Experiments conducted in the burning plasma regime with inertial fusion implosions
J. S. Ross, J. E. Ralph, A. B. Zylstra +149
An experimental program is currently underway at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) to compress deuterium and tritium (DT) fuel to densities and temperatures sufficient to achiev…
Benchmarking boron carbide equation of state using computation and experiment
Shuai Zhang, Michelle C. Marshall, Lin H. Yang +13
Boron carbide (BC) is of both fundamental scientific and practical interest in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) and high energy density physics experiments. We report the resu…
Direct-drive measurements of laser-imprint-induced shock velocity nonuniformities
J. L. Peebles, S. X. Hu, W. Theobald +8
Perturbations in the velocity profile of a laser-ablation-driven shock wave seeded by speckle in the spatial beam intensity (i.e., laser imprint) have been measured. Direct measure…
Breakdown of Fermi degeneracy in the simplest liquid metal
M. Zaghoo, T. R. Boehly, J. R. Rygg +3
We are reporting the observation of the breakdown of electrons degeneracy and emergence of classical statistics in the simplest element: metallic deuterium. We have studied the opt…
Theoretical and experimental investigation of the equation of state of boron plasmas
Shuai Zhang, Burkhard Militzer, Michelle C. Gregor +11
We report a theoretical equation of state (EOS) table for boron across a wide range of temperatures (5.110-5.210 K) and densities (0.25-49 g/cm), and ex…
