Abstract

In the inertial confinement fusion (1CF) concept, a spherical shell is imploded by the rocketlike reaction to plasma ablated from the pellet surface. To obtain pellet gains high enough to be useful in a reactor, the shell must be accelerated inward to ~200 km/sec with four laser-target physics constraints.1
