Description

The inertial fusion program is discussed in this paper. It is a special part of the Weapons Research, Development, and Testing technology base. In the near term, the program contributes to the nuclear weapons program through increased understanding of the phenomena that occur during a thermonuclear explosion; in the future, there is the potential of a civilian energy application to electric power generation
