Magnetized ICF Implosions: Scaling of Temperature and Yield Enhancement
C. A. Walsh, S. O'Neill, J. P. Chittenden +11
This paper investigates the impact of an applied magnetic field on the yield and hot-spot temperature of inertial confinement fusion implosions. A scaling of temperature amplificat…
Self-similar solutions for resistive diffusion, Ohmic heating and Ettingshausen effects in plasmas of arbitrary
G. Farrow, G. Kagan, J. P. Chittenden
MIF approaches, such as the MagLIF experiment, use magnetic fields in dense plasma to suppress cross-field thermal conduction, attempting to reduce heat losses and trap alpha parti…
Measuring magnetic flux suppression in high-power laser-plasma interactions
P. T. Campbell, C. A. Walsh, B. K. Russell +9
Biermann battery magnetic field generation driven by high power laser-solid interactions is explored in experiments performed with the OMEGA EP laser system. Proton deflectometry c…
First radiative shock experiments on the SG-II laser
Francisco Suzuki-Vidal, Thomas Clayson, Chantal Stehlé +17
We report on the design and first results from experiments looking at the formation of radiative shocks on the Shenguang-II (SG-II) laser at the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fi…
A preliminary assessment of the sensitivity of uniaxially-driven fusion targets to flux-limited thermal conduction modeling
D. A. Chapman, J. D. Pecover, N. Chaturvedi +6
The role of flux-limited thermal conduction on the fusion performance of the uniaxially-driven targets studied by Derentowicz et al.; Jour. Tech. Phys. 18, 465 (1977) and Jour. Tec…
