TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the ignition requirements and gain curves starting from simple models and then describe how these are modified, as more detailed physics understanding is included, as the critical design issues revolve around two questions: How can the compressed fuel be efficiently assembled? And how can power from the driver be delivered efficient.

Numerical study of fast ignition of ablatively imploded deuterium–tritium fusion capsules by ultra-intense proton beams
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the effects of deuterium-tritium fuel compression and ignition under conditions relevant to the scheme of fast ignition by laser generated proton beams.
