Analysis of trends in experimental observables and reconstruction of the implosion dynamics for direct-drive cryogenic targets on OMEGA
A. Bose, R. Betti, D. Mangino +22
This paper describes a technique for identifying trends in performance degradation for inertial confinement fusion implosion experiments. It is based on reconstruction of the implo…

Inference of the electron temperature in ICF implosions from the hard X-ray spectral continuum
Grigory Kagan, O. L. Landen, D. Svyatskiy +15
Using the free-free continuum self-emission spectrum at photon energies above 15 keV is one of the most promising concepts for assessing the electron temperature in ICF experiments…

Efficient quasi-monoenergetic ion beams up to 18 MeV/nucleon via self-generated plasma fields in relativistic laser plasmas
Sasi Palaniyappan, Chengkun Huang, Donald C. Gautier +5
Table-top laser-plasma ion accelerators seldom achieve narrow energy spreads, and never without serious compromises in efficiency, particle yield, etc. Using massive computer simul…
