Ignition of an initially isobaric D-T plasma, with a central hot spot, is found to depend on three dimensionless quantities, related to thermonuclear energy production, α-particle transport, and thermal conduction, respectively. Numerical simulations show that an ignition criterion of practical use can be written in terms of two of these quantities.

Abstract
Ignition of an initially isobaric D-T plasma, with a central hot spot, is found to depend on three dimensionless quantities, related to thermonuclear energy production, α-particle transport, and thermal conduction, respectively. Numerical simulations show that an ignition criterion of practical use can be written in terms of two of these quantities.File allegati a questo prodotto
