Magnetized ICF implosions: ignition at low laser energy using designs with more ablator mass remaining
C. A. Walsh, S. T. O'Neill, D. J. Strozzi +10
This paper is the first work to redesign a spherical ICF implosion to best utilize the benefits of applying an external magnetic field. The sub-ignition experiment N170601 is taken…

Hot-spot model for inertial confinement fusion implosions with an applied magnetic field
R. C. Spiers, A. Bose, C. A. Frank +4
Imposing a magnetic field on inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions magnetizes the electrons in the compressed fuel; this suppresses thermal losses which increases temperatur…
