Inertial confinement fusion

  1. Time-resolved X-ray probes track heating and ionization in solid-density plasma
    Sub-picosecond X-ray spectroscopy and multi-scale simulations reveal spatiotemporal heating and ionization dynamics in laser-driven plasmas, with implications for fusion energy models.
  2. Brazing performed better than HIPing in divertor tests
    Study comparing brazing and Hot Isostatic Pressing methods for bonding copper interfaces in fusion reactor divertors, evaluating thermal performance and fatigue resistance.
