Experimental Demonstration of X-Ray Drive Enhancement with Rugby-Shaped Hohlraums

Rugby-shaped hohlraums have been suggested as a way to enhance x-ray drive in the indirect drive approach to inertial confinement fusion. This Letter presents an experimental comparison of rugby-shaped and cylinder hohlraums used for D[subscript 2] and D[superscript 3]He-filled capsules implosions o...
