Soft x-ray generation by the Cherenkov effect

Description: The Cherenkov effect may be used to generate coherent soft x rays by taking advantage of the dielectric constants of materials in the neighborhood of atomic resonances. The Cherenkov effect usually is not possible for x rays because the refractive index is less than one for most x-ray frequencies. However, for narrow frequency bands near atomic resonances, the refractive index can exceed unity with values large enough to generate coherent x rays with efficiencies higher than any other electron-… more

Anomalies in near-threshold photoabsorption: Resonances, ''white-lines'' and other enhancements

Description: Synchrotron measurements of near-threshold and broad-range (80 to 1000 eV) absolute photoabsorption cross sections were taken at Brookhaven using the plane grating monochromator at the VuV storage ring beam line U14A of the NSLS facility. Transmission data for well characterized multilayer foils of C, Ti, Cr, Ni, Cu, Th and U provided absolute cross sections with 10% overall uncertainties and better than 2 eV resolution.

Review of the Advanced Toroidal Facility program

Description: This report summarizes the history and design goals of the Advanced Toroidal Facility (ATF). The ATF is nearing completion at ORNL with device completion expected in May 1987 and first useful plasma operation in June/July 1987. ATF is a moderate-aspect-ratio torsatron, the world's largest stellarator facility with R = 2.1 m, ..cap alpha.. bar = 0.3 m and B = 2 T (5-s pulse) or 1 T (steady-state capability). It has been specifically designed to support the US tokamak program by studying importan… more

The potential for reducing the cost of a heavy ion accelerator for ICF: Final report

Description: This study was initiated to identify the high leverage areas for reducing the cost of a 10 MJ heavy ion beam driver for a high gain target development facility. Our efforts to innovate to reach affordable cost have been mostly successful, in that it looks like the $500 M range may indeed be possible. We conclude that heavy ion beams do have substantial promise for an inertial fusion driver. However, the pace of R and D would have to be substantially increased to realize this promise on a timesc… more
