We propose an approach to Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) that could potentially lead to high levels of thermonuclear burn in the laboratory. The proposal is based upon the concept of pulsed power X ray driven hohlraums together with indirectly-driven ICF capsule designs that are scaled up in size from those typically used in laser indirect-drive ICF experiments at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). We propose that near-term NIF experiments can be used to explore some important aspects of the X ray driven hohlraum ICF concept.

脉冲功率间接驱动方法用于惯性约束融合

我们提出了一种惯性约束聚变（ICF）的方法，该方法有可能在实验室中导致高水平的热核燃烧。该提案基于脉冲功率X射线驱动的气孔的概念以及间接驱动的ICF胶囊设计，该设计的尺寸已从美国国家点火设施（NIF）的激光间接驱动ICF实验中通常使用的尺寸放大。我们建议可以使用近期的NIF实验来探索X射线驱动的HOLCRAUM ICF概念的一些重要方面。
