Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of nonsequential double ionization of helium with optical tunneling.
TL;DR: A new mechanism is proposed, which can exist only in the tunneling regime, for such nonsequential ionization of helium ionized by 120 fs, 614 nm laser pulses.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Time dependent low mode asymmetries that limited further progress of implosions have now been controlled, leading to an increased compression of the hot spot, resulting in hot spot areal density and stagnation pressure never before achieved in a laboratory experiment.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors achieved a burning-plasma state in the laboratory using a strategy to increase the spatial scale of the capsule through two different implosion concepts and showed that fusion self-heating in excess of the mechanical work injected into the implosions, satisfying several burningplasma metrics.

TL;DR: The High-Foot platform as discussed by the authors manipulates the laser pulse-shape coming from the National Ignition Facility laser to create an indirect drive 3-shock implosion that is significantly more robust against instability growth involving the ablator and also modestly reduces implosion convergence ratio.
