Deep Dive Topic: Approach to ignition
- Lawrence Livermore National Lab. (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
The current high-foot and related implosions have adequate CR and implosion velocity to ignite, but require improved finesse particularly in, but not limited to, implosion symmetry. This is being pursued. The challenge of controlling drive symmetry is also motivating lower convergence ratio designs. These require higher velocity implosions and are also being pursued.
