Pathways towards break even for low convergence ratio direct-drive inertial confinement fusion

<p>Following indirect-drive experiments which demonstrated promising performance for low convergence ratios (below 17), previous direct-drive simulations identified a fusion-relevant regime which is expected to be robust to hydrodynamic instability growth. This paper expands these results with...
