Optimization of target for ICF and target gain

  • 1. Tokyo Inst. of Tech., Yokohama (Japan). Dept. of Energy Sciences

Description

The typical target structure of the inertial confinement fusion by using the ion beams as the energy driver, and its optimized parameters are shown. The phenomenon occurring at the fuel implosion in the target, from which the thermonuclear fusion output energy of 2.5 GJ is released, is analyzed, and the requirements for the driver beam are summarized.
