Indirect-Drive Fusion Target Design for Commercial Fusion Energy
C. R. Weber, A. L. Kritcher, S. Bhandarkar +26
This paper presents the physics basis for commercially relevant laser indirect-drive (LID) (radiation-driven) inertial fusion energy (IFE) using a 10 MJ laser driver. To date, this…

Development of Anisotropic Magnetized Viscosity for Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion Simulations in FLASH
Ashwyn Sam, Fernando Garcia-Rubio, Scott Davidson +7
Magnetized liner inertial fusion (MagLIF) operates in a regime where anisotropic transport phenomena fundamentally influence implosion dynamics. In strongly magnetized plasmas, the…
