Development of target fabrication for laser-driven inertial confinement fusion at research center of laser fusion
As the basic conditions for laser inertial confinement fusion (ICF) research, the targets are required to be well specified and elaborately fabricated. Because of the characteristics of the targets, the research and fabrication process is a systematically tough task, which needs fundamental and deep insights into film deposition, mechanical machining, precise measurement and assembly, etc. As a...
متن کاملZ-pinch Driven Isentropic Compression for Inertial Fusion
The achievement of high gain with inertial fusion requires the compression of hydrogen isotopes to high density and temperatures. High densities can be achieved most efficiently by isentropic compression. This requires relatively slow pressure pulses on the order of 10-20 nanoseconds; however, the pressure profile must have the appropriate time history [J. Nuckolls et. al. Nature, 239, 139, 197...
متن کاملEmerging Partnership Strategy at Sandia National Laboratories
Research has linked the ability to partner and use alliances as a competitive tool as a critical component of agility. Companies that are able to quickly couple and uncouple themselves with other entities as needed demonstrate agile characteristics of reconjigurability, modulari~ and scalability. The case presented demonstrates these agile characteristics as well as methods employed to reach th...
متن کاملFast Ignition Studies at Sandia National Laboratories
This talk will describe ongoing and planned fast ignition theoretical and experimental work using the Z-machine in concert with the upgraded Z-Beamlet/PW laser system. Z can produce x-ray powers of 100-250TW, x-ray energies 1-1.8MJ, and > 200eV radiation temperatures and thus represents an interesting platform for compressing large quantities of matter for use as fast ignition targets. Soon Z w...
