Conditions for thermonuclear ignition of deuterium-tritium (DT) gas by a focusing ideally symmetric shock wave are estimated. The wave is focused to the center and then reflects. In so doing a higher-pressure zone is ...

The method used for proton polarization measurements and the equipment for investigations of the photon interaction with nucleons and nuclei of intermediate energies at the 2 GeV linear electron accelerator (NSC KIPT) is ...

The paper demonstrates the expediency of development of double-pulse lasers for studying the thermonuclear laser target performance based on moderate fuel pre-compression and subsequent ignition of the center by the focusing ...
