A case study of using X-ray Thomson Scattering to diagnose the in-flight plasma conditions of DT cryogenic implosions

The design of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) ignition targets requires radiation-hydrodynamics simulations with accurate models of the fundamental material properties (i.e., equation of state, opacity, and conductivity). Validation of these models are required via experimentation. A feasibility s...
