Ignition and Burn in a Small Magnetized Fuel Target

Plasma Physics 2014-04-08 v1

Abstract

LASNEX calculations of a small magnetized target show high gain at a velocity significantly lower than needed for unmagnetized targets. Its cryogenic fuel layer appears to be raised to an equilibrium ignition temperature of about 2 keV by the radiation from the burning magnetized fuel.
