Fabrication and characterization of laser fusion targets

Description: The fabrication steps are examined for a complex glass target which is designated as a Ball-in-Plate or Saturn target. The Ball-in-Plate target consists of a hollow, D-T filled glass sphere mounted in a thin glass plate. The glass plate is coplaner with a diametral plane of the sphere.

Bubble-Chamber Study of Dimuon Production by Neutrinos Using the Phase-2 EMI and a Dichromatic Beam

Description: The authors propose to examine in detail, using the 15-foot bubble chamber and an improved (Phase II) EMI, the characteristics of 'dimuon' events produced by neutrinos. A light neon-hydrogen filling (30% neon atoms) provides adequate target mass, good track measurements, and high detection efficiency for photons and electrons. Thus e-{mu} and e-e dileptons, as well as dimuons, can be observed with good efficiency. They estimate a yield of 100 detected dimuons in a 200 K picture expoture. They a… more

Absorption of short-pulse electromagnetic energy by a resistively loaded straight wire

Description: Absorption of short-pulse electromagnetic energy by a resistively loaded straight wire is examined. Energy collected by the wire, load energy, peak load currents, and peak load voltages are found for a wide range of parameters, with particular emphasis on nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) phenomena. A series of time-sequenced plots is used to illustrate pulse propagation on wires when loads and wire ends are encountered. (auth)

Models of electron conductivity which lead to ablation stabilization of fluid instabilities in laser-driven implosions

Description: LASNEX calculations with a modified electron conductivity show the existence of a firepolishing stabilization effect. By modifying the thermal conductivity so that K $alpha$ T/sup n//rho/sup m/, one is able to construct a situation in which the electrons deposit their energy in a thin layer at the ablation surface and closely match the zero order solutions assumed earlier. The firepolishing effect appears to require that a significant fraction of the total pressure be due to the ablation proces… more

Computer simulation of laser-driven implosion of DT-filled glass microballoons

Description: The results of some experimental measurements of laser implosions are analyzed. Calculations are made of specific target irradiations and compared with experiments. A general description is given of exploding pushers and the physical processes involved are described. (MOW)
