Spherical compression of an applied magnetic field in inertial confinement fusion
R. Spiers, A. Bose, C. A. Frank +4
Applying an external magnetic field to laser-driven inertial confinement fusion implosions is a promising approach for enhancing fusion yield. The field is compressed with the plas…
Integrated Radiation-Magneto-Hydrodynamic Simulations of Magnetized Burning Plasmas. I. Magnetizing Ignition-Class Designs
B. Z. Djordjević, D. J. Strozzi, G. B. Zimmerman +6
Motivated by breakthroughs in inertial confinement fusion (ICF), first achieving ignition conditions in National Ignition Facility (NIF) shot N210808 and then laser energy breakeve…
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…
Burn Propagation in Magnetized High-Yield Inertial Fusion
S. T. O'Neill, B. D. Appelbe, A. J. Crilly +4
Recent experiments at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) have demonstrated ignition for the first time in an inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiment, a major milestone allow…
Design and Modeling of Indirectly-Driven Magnetized Implosions on the NIF
D. J. Strozzi, H. Sio, G. B. Zimmerman +7
The use of magnetic fields to improve the performance of hohlraum-driven implosions on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) is discussed. The focus is on magnetically insulated ine…
Non-Linear Ablative Rayleigh-Taylor Instability: Increased Growth due to Self-Generated Magnetic Fields
C. A. Walsh, D. S. Clark
The growth rate of the non-linear ablative Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability is enhanced by magnetic fields self-generated by the Biermann battery mechanism; a scaling for this effe…
