Comparison for non-local hydrodynamic thermal conduction models

TL;DR: In this paper, two non-local electron thermal conduction models are tested against kinetic Vlasov-Fokker-Planck simulations, and the reduction of the thermal conductivity as a function of the scalelength of the temperature gradient is also recovered.

Fast Ignition: Overview and Background

TL;DR: Fast ignition is an approach to inertial fusion in which precompressed fuel is ignited with an external heat source as mentioned in this paper, which can, in principle, lead to higher gains than conventional ignit...

Overview of ignition conditions and gain curves for the fast ignitor

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review and discuss ignition requirements, burn studies, and gain models, and present selected gain results, illustrating the dependence of the gain on the parameters of the ignition beam.
