AbstractAbstract
[en] The ion temperature history of the plasma fireball in TRISOPS IIX has been measured by comparing the time resolved neutron yield from a D-D reaction and a D-T reaction. This measurement results in a reading of ion temperature that is independent of any assumptions of plasma density or fireball volume. The results verify and clarify previously reported TRISOPS parameters. In a separate set of measurements using a D-D reaction, the ion temperature rises in 5 μs to 6 KeV with a corresponding density of 1015 ion/cm3. After 8 μs it falls rapidly to 1 KeV as the density rises to 1017 ions/cm. The 1 KeV temperature is held for about 20 s. These temperatures and densities yield and equilibration time for ions and electrons that is long compared to the duration of the experiment
