LLNL These images depict various laser profiles used in the inertial confinement fusion research and provides the experimental set-up for the VISAR-based shock velocity measurement and representative streaked data. In inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), a spherical shell of deuterium-tritium fuel is imploded in an attempt to reach the conditions needed for fusion, self-heating and eventual ignition. Since theory and simulations indicate that ignition efficacy in one-dimension (1D) improves with increasing imploded fuel convergence ratio, it i...
