TL;DR: Miller et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a point design for the initial ignition campaign on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) using D-T fusion fuel in an ablator of either CH with Ge doping, or Be with Cu.

Pierre Michel,Laurent Divol,E. A. Williams,S. V. Weber,Cliff Thomas,Debra Callahan,S. W. Haan,Jay D. Salmonson,S. N. Dixit,D. E. Hinkel,M. J. Edwards,B. J. MacGowan,J. D. Lindl,Siegfried Glenzer,L. J. Suter +14 more
TL;DR: A new full-scale, three-dimensional quantitative model has been developed for crossed-beam energy transfer, allowing calculations of the propagation and coupling of multiple laser beams and their associated plasma waves in ignition hohlraums.

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.

Symmetry tuning via controlled crossed-beam energy transfer on the National Ignition Facilitya)
Pierre Michel,S.H. Glenzer,Laurent Divol,D. K. Bradley,Debra Callahan,S. N. Dixit,S. M. Glenn,Denise Hinkel,R. K. Kirkwood,John Kline,William L. Kruer,George A. Kyrala,S. Le Pape,Nathan Meezan,Richard Town,Klaus Widmann,E. A. Williams,B. J. MacGowan,J. D. Lindl,L. J. Suter +19 more
TL;DR: In this article, a linear model for calculating cross-beam energy transfer between cones of beams on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) has been developed, which has been applied to the subscale Hohlraum targets shot during the NIF's 2009 EH experimental campaign.
