| Research Abstract |
In the laser fusion, a part of imploded dense fuel plasma is heated up to ignition temperature, and then the fusion burn wave propagates from heated ignition region to the other cold main fuel region, which results in the explosive fusion burning. In the present study, we developed the simulation code for fusion burning, where the transports of energetic particles (ions, neutrons and electrons) playing important roles in fusion burning are precisely treated, and evaluated the ignition and burn properties of laser fusion fuel.
