    Design of inertial fusion implosions reaching the burning plasma regime

    In a burning plasma state1–7, alpha particles from deuterium–tritium fusion reactions redeposit their energy and are the dominant source of heating. This state has recently been achieved at the US National Igniti...

    Plasma stop**-power measurements reveal transition from non-degenerate to degenerate plasmas

    Physically realized electron gas systems usually reside in either the quantum non-degenerate or fully degenerate limit, where the average de Broglie wavelength of the thermal electrons becomes comparable with ...

    Inertially confined fusion plasmas dominated by alpha-particle self-heating

    Alpha-particle self-heating, the process of deuterium–tritium fusion reaction products depositing their kinetic energy locally within a fusion reaction region and thus increasing the temperature in the reactin...

    Inertial-confinement fusion with lasers

    The quest for controlled fusion energy has been ongoing for over a half century. The demonstration of ignition and energy gain from thermonuclear fuels in the laboratory has been a major goal of fusion researc...
