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…

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…

Resistive Diffusion in Magnetized ICF Implosions: Reduced Magnetic Stabilization of the Richtmyer Meshkov Instability
C. A. Walsh, D. J. Strozzi, H. Sio +7
Resistive diffusion is typically regarded to be negligible in magnetized ICF experiments, with magnetic flux effectively compressed during the implosion. In this work the Richtmyer…
