Energy deposition of MeV electrons in compressed targets of fast-ignition inertial confinement fusion

Energy deposition of MeV electrons in dense plasmas, critical for fast ignition in inertial confinement fusion (ICF), is modeled analytically. It is shown that classical stopping and scattering dominate electron transport and energy deposition when the electrons reach the dense plasmas in the cores of compressed targets, while “anomalous” stopping associated with self-generated fields and micro...
