Hydrodynamic Assessment of Direct Drive Inertial Confinement Fusion with Mixed Lasers
Guannan Zheng, Tao Tao, Qing Jia +3
Ablation with mixed -- lasers is investigated as a possible drive strategy for balancing drive efficiency and ablative stabilization in direct-drive inertial confinement…
Generation of period-tunable MeV few-attosecond electron pulse trains via counter-propagating lasers
Qi Huang, Qing Jia, Zhongxuan Wang +1
Attosecond electron pulses permit real-time probing of ultrafast material dynamics. However, generating few-attosecond electron pulses with MeV energies and low energy spread remai…
A Particle-in-Cell Simulation Framework for Thomson Scattering Analysis in Inertial Confinement Fusion
Ziang Zhu, Yifan Liu, Jun Li +11
In inertial confinement fusion (ICF), Thomson scattering (TS) is a widely used diagnostic technique for probing plasma conditions. We present a first-principles numerical approach…
Resonance density range of absolute two-plasmon decay instability
C. Yao, J. Li, L. Hao +4
We present a new insight into absolute two-plasmon decay (TPD) instability in nonuniform plasmas by identifying the resonance density range as the key parameter governing the growt…
A one-dimensional mixing model for the impact of ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability on compression dynamics
Dongxue Liu, Tao Tao, Jun Li +3
A one-dimensional mixing model, incorporating the effects of laser ablation and initial perturbations, is developed to study the influence of ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability o…
A buoyancy-drag model with a time-varying drag coefficient for evaluating bubble front penetration depth
Dongxue Liu, Tao Tao, Jun Li +3
To evaluate and control bubble front penetration depth induced by ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability (ARTI) from a weakly nonlinear phase to a self-similar phase, we…
