TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the computation of the minimum ignition energy and of the fuel gain of D-T targets which are isobaric at ignition is formulated, making use of the relevant ignition criterion.
Abstract: A model for the computation of the minimum ignition energy and of the fuel gain of D-T targets which are isobaric at ignition is formulated, making use of the relevant ignition criterion. Scaling relations for the limiting gain curves, as functions of the energy delivered to the fuel, the fuel mass and the isentrope parameter, are given and illustrated by several examples.
