Radiation converter physics and a method for obtaining the upper limit for gain in heavy ion fusion

Darwin Ho, +2 more
- 01 Aug 1994 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that a high Z material can be used to prevent radiation from escaping from the interior region of the radiating material, and that the energy absorbed by the casing is tolerable.

Inertial confinement fusion using hohlraum radiation generated by heavy-ion clusters

TL;DR: Tahir et al. as discussed by the authors discussed the feasibility of employing heavy-ion cluster beams to generate thermal radiation that can be used to drive inertial fusion capsules, and the conversion efficiency of cluster ions using a low-density gold converter was also calculated over a wide range of parameters including converter density, converter geometry, and specific power deposition.

A finite material temperature model for ion energy deposition in ion‐driven inertial confinement fusion targets

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for use in ion-driven inertial confinement fusion (ICF) target design was developed to describe the deposition of energy by an arbitrary ion traversing a material of arbitrary composition, density, and temperature.

On energy gain of fusion targets: the model of Kidder and Bodner improved

TL;DR: In this paper, the model of Kidder and Bodner for the energy gain of ICF targets has been improved at a key point by assuming uniform pressure over the DT fuel at ignition as suggested by code simulations and self-similar shell implosions.

Self‐similar expansion of dense matter due to heat transfer by nonlinear conduction

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the hydrodynamic equations with nonlinear conduction admit a self-similar solution of the asymptotic type, i.e., approached by the flow for t→∞.

Target study for heavy ion beam fusion

TL;DR: In this paper, heavy ion beam driven implosion of multilayered, single-shell targets for inertial confinement fusion was investigated by ID-simulation and the ion beam energy and the tamper/absorber configuration which gave optimum hydrodynamic efficiency and fuel ignition were found for a reactor-size target.
