Diagnosing indirect-drive inertial-confinement-fusion implosions with charged particles
High-energy charged particles are being used to diagnose x-ray-driven implosions in inertial-confinement fusion. Recent measurements with vacuum hohlraums have resulted in quantitative characterization of important aspects of x-ray drive and capsule implosions. Comprehensive data obtained from spectrally resolved, fusion-product self-emission and time-gated proton radiographs with unprecedented...
متن کاملLaser-plasma interaction in direct-drive inertial confinement fusion
Hot electrons generated by the two-plasmon–decay instability in direct-drive targets are a preheat concern. A mitigation strategy that employs a layered ablator [V. N. Goncharov et al., Phys. Plasmas 21, 056315 (2014)] has been investigated both numerically and experimentally. The numerical simulations described here predict reduced hot-electron production compared with similar targets using ei...
متن کاملEffects of nonuniform illumination on implosion asymmetry in direct-drive inertial confinement fusion.
Target areal density (rhoR) asymmetries in OMEGA direct-drive spherical implosions are studied. The rms variation / for low-mode-number structure is approximately proportional to the rms variation of on-target laser intensity / with an amplification factor of approximately 1/2(C(r)-1), where C(r) is the capsule convergence ratio. This result has critical implications...
متن کاملMonoenergetic-proton-radiography measurements of implosion dynamics in direct-drive inertial-confinement fusion.
Time-gated, monoenergetic radiography with 15-MeV protons provides unique measurements of implosion dynamics in direct-drive inertial-confinement fusion. Images obtained during acceleration, coasting, deceleration, and stagnation display a comprehensive picture of spherical implosions. Critical information inferred from such images, hitherto unavailable, characterizes the spatial structure and ...
متن کاملImplosion experiments using glass ablators for direct-drive inertial confinement fusion.
Direct-drive implosions with 20-microm-thick glass shells were conducted on the Omega Laser Facility to test the performance of high-Z glass ablators for direct-drive, inertial confinement fusion. The x-ray signal caused by hot electrons generated by two-plasmon-decay instability was reduced by more than approximately 40x and hot-electron temperature by approximately 2x in the glass compared to...
