Transport properties of dense deuterium-tritium plasmas.

Consistent descriptions of the equation of states and information about the transport coefficients of the deuterium-tritium mixture are demonstrated through quantum molecular dynamic (QMD) simulations (up to a density of 600 g/cm(3) and a temperature of 10(4) eV). Diffusion coefficients and viscosity are compared to the one-component plasma model in different regimes from the strong coupled to the kinetic one. Electronic and radiative transport coefficients, which are compared to models currently used in hydrodynamic simulations of inertial confinement fusion, are evaluated up to 800 eV. The Lorentz number is discussed from the highly degenerate to the intermediate region. One-dimensional hydrodynamic simulation results indicate that different temperature and density distributions are observed during the target implosion process by using the Spitzer model and ab initio transport coefficients.
