    • Comparison of ablators for the polar direct drive exploding pusher platform 

      Whitley, Heather D.; Kemp, G. Elijah; Yeamans, Charles B.; Walters, Zachary B.; Blue, Brent E.; e.a. (Elsevier, 2019-12)
      We examine the performance of pure boron, boron carbide, high density carbon, and boron nitride ablators in the polar direct drive exploding pusher (PDXP) platform. The platform uses the polar direct drive con guration at ...
    • The impact of disruptions on the economics of a tokamak power plant 

      Maris, Andrew D.; Wang, Allen; Rea, Cristina; Granetz, Robert; Marmar, Earl (Taylor & Francis, 2022-12)
      Tokamaks are often considered a leading candidate for near-term, cost-effective fusion energy, but are susceptible to sudden loss of confinement events called "disruptions.'' The threat of disruptions has garnered serious ...
    • Multiphysics simulations of a steady-state lower hybrid current drive antenna for the FSNF 

      Wallace, Greg M.; Bohm, T.; Kessel, C.E. (Taylor & Francis, 2020-10)
      The Fusion Nuclear Science Facility (FNSF) is a proposed tokamak reactor with the mission to investigate operation of a fusion reactor in a nuclear environment. The high neutron fluence component of the FNSF mission requires ...
