Implications of high-energy photons and electrons on target preheat at the Sandia “Z” facility

High-energy photons and electrons on the Sandia National Laboratories “Z” accelerator, a z-pinch device, will deposit energy into a capsule and fuel; this may create a potential preheat problem for inertial confinement infusion (ICF). In this article we discuss heating of the capsule and fuel by hig...

Zusammenfassung:High-energy photons and electrons on the Sandia National Laboratories “Z” accelerator, a z-pinch device, will deposit energy into a capsule and fuel; this may create a potential preheat problem for inertial confinement infusion (ICF). In this article we discuss heating of the capsule and fuel by high-energy photons and electrons. The fuel is heated to
