Power balancing of multibeam laser fusion lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The success of laser fusion depends to a good degree on the ability to compress the target to very high densities of ≥1000 times liquid DT. To achieve such compressions require that the irradiation nonuniformity must not exceed ≈ 1 % rms over the whole time of the compression, particularly during the early phases of irradiation.
