Validation of FLASH for magnetically driven inertial confinement fusion target design
C. Leland Ellison, Jonathan Carroll-Nellenback, Chiatai Chen +20
FLASH is a widely available radiation magnetohydrodynamics code used for astrophysics, laboratory plasma science, high energy density physics, and inertial confinement fusion. Incr…
Affordable, manageable, practical, and scalable (AMPS) high-yield and high-gain inertial fusion
Andrew Alexander, Laura Robin Benedetti, Indrani Bhattacharyya +63
High-yield inertial fusion offers a transformative path to affordable clean firm power and advanced defense capabilities. Recent milestones at large facilities, particularly the Na…
Opportunities in Pulsed Magnetic Fusion Energy
C. Leland Ellison, Vincent Garcia, Matthew Gomez +13
Fusion is a potentially transformational energy technology, which promises limitless clean energy. Yet, it requires continued scientific and technological development to realize it…
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…
Strong suppression of heat conduction in a laboratory replica of galaxy-cluster turbulent plasmas
J. Meinecke, P. Tzeferacos, J. S. Ross +32
Galaxy clusters are filled with hot, diffuse X-ray emitting plasma, with a stochastically tangled magnetic field whose energy is close to equipartition with the energy of the turbu…
Review of the First Charged-Particle Transport Coefficient Comparison Workshop
P. E. Grabowski, S. B. Hansen, M. S. Murillo +42
We present the results of the first Charged-Particle Transport Coefficient Code Comparison Workshop, which was held in Albuquerque, NM October 4-6, 2016. In this first workshop, sc…
Modeling hydrodynamics, magnetic fields and synthetic radiographs for high-energy-density plasma flows in shock-shear targets
Yingchao Lu, Shengtai Li, Hui Li +11
Three-dimensional FLASH radiation-magnetohydrodynamics (radiation-MHD) modeling is carried out to study the hydrodynamics and magnetic fields in the shock-shear derived platform. S…
Self-similar structure and experimental signatures of suprathermal ion distribution in inertial confinement fusion implosions
Grigory Kagan, D. Svyatskiy, H. G. Rinderknecht +4
The distribution function of suprathermal ions is found to be self-similar under conditions relevant to inertial confinement fusion hot-spots. By utilizing this feature, interferen…
Observation of magnetic field generation via the Weibel instability in interpenetrating plasma flows
C. M. Huntington, F. Fiuza, J. S. Ross +18
Collisionless shocks can be produced as a result of strong magnetic fields in a plasma flow, and therefore are common in many astrophysical systems. The Weibel instability is one c…
