| description | Part II of this special edition contains the remaining eleven papers arising from a Hooke discussion
meeting held in March 2020 devoted to exploring the current status of inertial confinement fusion
research worldwide and its application to electrical power generation in the future, via the
development of an international inertial fusion energy programme. It builds upon increased coordination within Europe over the past decade by researchers supported by the EUROFusion
Enabling Research grants, as well as collaborations that have arisen naturally with some of America’s
and Asia’s leading researchers’ both in the universities and national laboratories. The articles are
devoted to informing an update to the European roadmap for an inertial fusion energy
demonstration reactor, building upon the commonalities between the magnetic and inertial fusion
communities’ approaches to fusion energy. A number of studies devoted to understanding the
physics barriers to ignition on current facilities are then presented. The special issue concludes with
four state of-the-art articles describing recent significant advances in fast ignition inertial fusion
research. |
