Summary form only given. We have installed the National Ignition Facility Neutron Imaging System. The imaging system provides information about the areal density of fuel in the various regions of the capsule implosion. A long line of sight enables imaging both the primary 14 MeV neutrons as well as the down-scattered neutrons with energies in the range of 9-12 MeV. The imager is a pinhole camera w...Show More

2011 Abstracts IEEE International Conference on Plasma Science
Year: 2011 | Conference Paper |
Summary form only given. The neutron imaging diagnostic has recently been commissioned at the National Ignition Facility. We will present the diagnostic performance characteristics, which have been measured with the collection of these first neutron images. The goal for this diagnostic is to collect two pinhole images at two different times. The long flight path results in a chromatic separation o...Show More

Inertial electrostatic confinement for fusion applications
The 30th International Conference on Plasma Science, 2003. ICOPS 2003. IEEE Conference Record - Abstracts.
Year: 2003 | Conference Paper |
Summary form only given, as follows. Inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) devices have demonstrated significant neutron yields (as high as 2/spl times/10/sup 10/ neutrons/second, steady state) in a compact and inexpensive scale. Recent technological progress in plasma sources, vacuum technology and high voltage materials indicates that an order of magnitude increase in neutron yield may be ach...Show More
Using tamped exploding wires to generate strongly coupled plasmas
T. Tierney;J. Benage;S. Evans;G. Kyrala;R. Montoya;C. Munson;J. Roberts;A. Taylor;J. Workman
Summary form only given. Plasmas become strongly coupled (SCP) when the coulomb interaction energy between particles is comparable or greater than the thermal kinetic energy. This occurs at low temperatures (T/spl sim/1 eV) and high densities (n/sub c//spl sim/10/sup 21/ cm/sup -3/). SCPs are found in the interior of gas planets and white dwarf stars, as well as in high energy density physics expe...Show More

Atlas is a pulsed-power facility under development at Los Alamos National Laboratory to drive high-energy density experiments. Atlas will be operational in the summer of 2000 and is optimized for the study of dynamic material properties, hydrodynamics, and dense plasmas under extreme conditions. Atlas is designed to implode heavy-liner loads in a z-pinch configuration. The peak current of 30 MA is...Show More

Year: 1996 | Conference Paper |
Summary form only given. The United States Department of Energy complex has a significant legacy of equipment which has been used in the production of the nations nuclear weapons stockpile, and is consequently contaminated with Transuranic (TRU) material.
