Fast-ignition design transport studies: realistic electron source, integrated PIC-hydrodynamics, imposed magnetic fields
D. J. Strozzi, M. Tabak, D. J. Larson +5
Transport modeling of idealized, cone-guided fast ignition targets indicates the severe challenge posed by fast-electron source divergence. The hybrid particle-in-cell [PIC] code Z…

Cone-Guided Fast Ignition with no Imposed Magnetic Fields
D. J. Strozzi, M. Tabak, D. J. Larson +6
Simulations of ignition-scale fast ignition targets have been performed with the new integrated Zuma-Hydra PIC-hydrodynamic capability. We consider an idealized spherical DT fuel a…
