Thermonuclear Ignition

The National Ignition Facility (NIF), the world's largest and most energetic laser system, is now operational at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The NIF will enable exploration of scientific problems in national strategic security, basic science and fusion energy. One of the early NIF goals centres on achieving laboratory-scale thermonuclear ignition and energy gain, demonstrating the feasibility of laser fusion as a viable source of clean, carbon-free energy. This talk will discuss the precision technology and engineering challenges of building the NIF and those we must overcome to make fusion energy a commercial reality.

The effect of small-scale wavefront perturbations on laser radiation is investigated at flux densities close to maximum. The model and calculated results for the effect of the degree of radiation coherence on the laser radiation brightness as functions of flux density and length and shape of the active medium are presented. For the restricted coherence of the laser radiation, the rate of small-scale perturbation growth is shown to decrease in theactive medium. The principal optical scheme of a laser for fusion experiments, with the maximum radiation brightness, is given as an example.
