Generalized multi-dimensional conservation laws for stimulated Raman and Brillouin scattering in a density gradient

Vijay Patel, Sarah Chase, Frank S. Tsung +3

Generalized local and multi-dimensional conservation laws of action, energy, momentum, and angular momentum are derived for stimulated Raman (SRS) and Brillouin backscattering (SBS…

First bromine doped cryogenic implosion at the National Ignition Facility

A. C. Hayes, G. Kyrala, M. Gooden +29

We report on the first experiment dedicated to the study of nuclear reactions on dopants in a cryogenic capsule at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). This was accomplished using…

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…

The first cryogenic DT layered, beryllium capsule implosion at the National Ignition Facility

D. C. Wilson, J. L. Kline, S. A. Yi +26

NIF experiments with Be capsules have followed a path of the highly successful "high-foot" CH capsules. Several keyhole and ConA targets preceeded a DT layered shot. In addition to…

Threshold for Electron Trapping Nonlinearity in Langmuir Waves

D. J. Strozzi, E. A. Williams, H. A. Rose +3

We assess when electron trapping nonlinearity is expected to be important in Langmuir waves. The basic criterion is that the inverse of the detrapping rate nu_d of electrons in the…

Ray-based calculations of backscatter in laser fusion targets

D. J. Strozzi, E. A. Williams, D. E. Hinkel +3

A 1D, steady-state model for Brillouin and Raman backscatter from an inhomogeneous plasma is presented. The daughter plasma waves are treated in the strong damping limit, and have…
