Precision Shock Tuning on the National Ignition Facility

Precision Shock Tuning on the National Ignition Facility

Ignition implosions on the National Ignition Facility [ J. D. Lindl et al. Phys. Plasmas 11 339 (2004)] are underway with the goal of compressing deuterium-tritium fuel to a sufficiently high areal density (ρR) to sustain a self-propagating burn wave required for fusion power gain greater than unity...
