Co4ICF: Co-evolving Physics-Informed Surrogate and RL-based Pulse Optimizer for Inertial Confinement Fusion
Jiatong Zhao, Tengyue Zhang, Yuhan Wang +2
Offline-trained surrogates for Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) suffer a well-known failure mode that iterative optimizers drive inputs into out-of-distribution (OOD) regions wher…
Optimization of Laser Irradiation Uniformity for the Double-Cone Ignition Scheme with MULTI-3D simulations
Yicheng Wang, Yiwen Yang, Fuyuan Wu +3
The double-cone ignition (DCI) scheme holds a promising perspective for laser driven fusion energy and astrophysics. However, optimizing the laser irradiation uniformity under the…
S-wave kaon condensation in neutron-star matter within a chiral model framework with dynamical meson masses
Yuhan Wang, Rajesh Kumar, Joaquin Grefa +4
We investigate s-wave kaon condensation in dense matter and neutron stars within the updated Chiral Mean Field model with an improved meson description (mCMF), which incorporates d…
Modern nuclear and astrophysical constraints of dense matter in a renormalized chiral approach
Rajesh Kumar, Yuhan Wang, Nikolas Cruz Camacho +3
We explore the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) phase diagram's complexities, including quark deconfinement transitions, liquid-gas phase changes, and critical points, using the chiral…
Interacting mesons as degrees of freedom in a chiral model
Rajesh Kumar, Joaquin Grefa, Konstantin Maslov +5
We study the equation of state of hot and dense hadronic matter using an extended Chiral Mean Field (CMF) model framework where the addition is the inclusion of interactions of the…
