A Magnetic Thrust Chamber Design For A Laser Fusion Rocket Based on Impact Fast Ignition Scheme
نویسندگان
چکیده
The laser fusion rocket, which is expected as a rocket that it replaces one of the chemical propulsions, can be efficiently operated by using a shaped target. The shaped target is made of fusion pellet and the pellet is surrounded by a moderator (propellant). We here examine the applicability of the impact fast ignition scheme to the shaped target. It was found that it is difficult to increase the thrust efficiency by using a simple spherical moderator.

Energy Gain of Magnetized Cylindrical D-T Targets in Fast Ignition Fusion
In recent years, many different plans have been considered to use the nuclear energy gained from inertial confinement fusion (ICF) as attempts to obtain high energy efficiencies. In conventional ICF methods, a small amount (about mg) of the deuterium–tritium compound is confined in a small spherical chamber of a few millimeters in radius and compressed by laser or heavy ion beams with powers in...

A new concept for inertial confinement fusion called fast-shock ignition (FSI) is introduced as a credible scheme in order to obtain high target gain. In the proposed model, the separation of fuel ignition into two successive steps, under the suitable conditions, reduces required ignitor energy for the fuel ignition. The main procedure in FSI concept is compressing the fuel up to stagnation. T...

Fast ignition is a new method for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) in which the compression and ignition steps are separated. In the first stage, fuel is compressed by laser or ion beams. In the second phase, relativistic electrons are generated by pettawat laser in the fuel. Also, in the second phase 5-35 MeV protons can be generated in the fuel. Electrons or protons can penetrate in to the u...
