靶丸支撑膜对ICF内爆性能影响的模拟研究

使用二维多群辐射扩散流体力学程序LARED-S，模拟研究靶丸支撑膜在惯性约束聚变氘氘（DD）气体靶内爆过程中的扰动演化过程及其对内爆性能的影响.二维模拟表明：靶丸支撑膜显著降低DD气体靶内爆的中子产额，二维模拟产额为一维结果的55.2%.内爆性能下降的主要物理机制是支撑膜使靶壳生成大幅度的尖钉深入DD气体区，使烧蚀层与DD气体之间物质界面处的电子热传导漏失功率显著增大，导致DD核反应速率显著降低，中子反应速率峰值时刻（bang-time时刻）提前.相比一维理想内爆的模拟结果，支撑膜引入的扰动显著降低bang-time时刻DD气体压强与内爆动能转化为DD气体内能的效率，壳层剩余动能相应大幅增加.

激光聚变冲击波点火的热斑形成机制

通过对冲击波点火内爆过程的数值模拟分析点火热斑压缩及形成机制。分析了传统中心点火的内爆过程,热斑主要经历冲击波压缩和惯性压缩过程,点火主要通过惯性压缩来实现。并仔细分析了冲击波点火的内爆压缩过程,从内爆角度来看冲击波点火并不是压缩和点火分开的两步过程,点火冲击波实际参与压缩过程,点火冲击波对热斑的直接影响很有限,热斑仍然主要通过壳层的惯性压缩实现点火。利用惯性压缩的定标关系及冲击波碰撞对壳层影响规律分析了热斑增压的物理机制,冲击波点火是通过点火冲击波与回冲击波的碰撞来提高壳层的密度,从而实现热斑压力的提升。

Quantum calculations of Coulomb reorientation for sub-barrier fusion

Classical mechanics and time dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) calculations of heavy ions collisions are performed to study the rotation of a deformed nucleus in the Coulomb field of its partner. This reorientation is shown to be independent of the charges and relative energy of the partners. It only depends upon the deformations and inertias. TDHF calculations predict an increase by 30% of the induced rotation due to quantum effects while the nuclear contribution seems negligible. This reorientation modifies strongly the fusion cross section around the barrier for light deformed nuclei on heavy collision partners. For such nuclei a hindrance of the sub-barrier fusion is predicted.     

Nuclear fusion driven by coulomb explosions of large deuterium clusters

Recent experiments on the interaction of intense, ultrafast laser pulses with large van der Waals bonded clusters have shown that these clusters can explode with substantial kinetic energy. By driving explosions in deuterium clusters with a 35 fs laser pulse, we have accelerated ions to sufficient kinetic energy to produce DD nuclear fusion. By diagnosing the fusion yield through measurements of 2.45 MeV fusion neutrons, we have found that the fusion yield from these exploding clusters varies strongly with the cluster size, consistent with acceleration of deuterons via Coulomb explosion forces.     

Deuterium-deuterium fusion dynamics in low-density molecular-cluster jets irradiated by intense ultrafast laser pulses

Following the interaction of superintense, short pulse lasers and plasmas, ions can be accelerated to velocities sufficient to drive nuclear fusion reactions, in particular, by the process of Coulomb explosion of clusters [T. Ditmire, Nature (London) 398, 491 (1999)]]. We show here how short bursts of neutrons can be produced using a jet of low-density deuterated methane clusters. Ion velocity distributions were simultaneously measured by a Thomson parabola mass spectrometer, demonstrating deuteron energies up to 120 keV. We show that, in such conditions, nuclear fusion will occur not only in the hot plasma core, but also in the cold outer region by collision processes.     

Fusion burning waves in degenerate plasmas

The outcome of fusion burning waves in non-degenerate plasmas is limited by the strength of ion–electron Coulomb collisions and subsequent energy loss mechanisms as electron heat conduction and radiation emission. In this Letter, an analysis is presented on the degeneracy effects in the stopping power of suprathermal charged particles and in the energy transmitted from ions to electrons by Coulomb collision. Main results of this analysis is that very powerful fusion burning waves can be launched into previously compressed degenerate plasmas. This can be specially suitable for proton–boron fusion, but it also applicable to any type of fusion reaction, where ignition can be triggered by an incoming ion beam or another external source of energy deposited in a small fraction of the compressed plasma (fast ignition).     

张量力在16O+16O熔合动力学中的效应（英文）

利用时间相关Hartree-Fock 理论和完整Skyrme 有效相互作用研究了16O+16O 碰撞在库仑位垒附近的熔合动力学。数值计算是在没有任何对称性约束的三维笛卡尔基下完成。将时间相关Hartree-Fock 理论和冻结密度近似下的能量密度泛函方法给出的库仑位垒与实验结果进行了比较,发现同位旋标量的张量项能降低自旋饱和体系16O+16O的库仑位垒,而库仑位垒高度随着同位旋矢量的张量项的耦合常数减小而降低。并计算了包含和不包含张量力的16O+16O熔合截面,发现张量力对16O+16O碰撞在库仑位垒附近的熔合动力学影响较小。The fusion dynamics of 16O+16O around Coulomb barrier has been studied in the timedependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory with the full Skyrme effective interaction. The calculations have been carried out in three-dimensional Cartesian basis without any symmetry restrictions. We have included the full tensor force and all the time-odd terms in Skyrme energy density functional (EDF). The Coulomb barrier obtained from the dynamical TDHF calculations and EDF with frozen density approximation has been compared with the available experimental data. The isoscalar tensor terms and the rearrangement of other terms are found to decrease the barrier height in the spin-saturated system 16O+16O, while the energy of Coulomb barrier tends to decrease as the isovector coupling constant decreases. The fusion cross section for 16O+16O collision has been calculated with and without the tensor force. We found that the tensor force has minor effect on the fusion dynamics of 16O+16O at the energies around Coulomb barrier.

The hindrance to completing fusion both at small and large collision energies is explained. The fusion excitation functions of 32S+90,96Zr in an energy range from above to below the ...     

A theory of cold nuclear fusion in deuterium-loaded palladium

Deuterium gas compressed in a palladium lattice is considered to form a quantum plasma of bosons leading to significant screening of the Coulomb potential between deuterium ions. The resulting enhancement of the quantum mechanical tunnelling probability adequately explains the recently observed cold fusion rates.     

Atomic structure and collision dynamics with highly charged ions

The research progresses on the investigations of atomic structure and collision dynamics with highly charged ions based on the heavy ion storage rings and electron ion beam traps in recent 20 years are reviewed. The structure part covers test of quantum electrodynamics and electron correlation in strong Coulomb field studied through dielectronic recombination spectroscopy and VUV/x-ray spectroscopy. The collision dynamics part includes charge exchange dynamics in ion-atom collisions mainly in Bohr velocity region, ion-induced fragmentation mechanisms of molecules, hydrogen-bound and van de Waals bound clusters, interference, and phase information observed in ion-atom/molecule collisions. With this achievements, two aspects of theoretical studies related to low energy and relativistic energy collisions are presented. The applications of data relevant to key atomic processes like dielectronic recombination and charge exchanges involving highly charged ions are discussed. At the end of this review, some future prospects of research related to highly charged ions are proposed.     

Screening corrections in cold deuterium fusion rates

We have recalculated the fusion rates of the free deuterium molecule, ion and mesomolecule taking into account the shielding of the Coulomb barrier by the electrons and muon. Electron screening increases the rates by several orders of magnitude. The fusion of hydrogen nuclei is known to be the source of energy of stars occuring in their high-temperature, high-pressure interiors. In terrestrial conditions, one attempts currently to tap this source of nuclear fusion energy by alternative techniques, i.e. high-temperature plasmas or muon-catalyzed fusion. Very recently cold fusion in solids has achieved worldwide attention, since experimental evidence for increased hydrogenic fusion rates in palladium and titanium has been reported[1,2]. These reports have motivated us to reconsider the fusion probability of free hydrogen molecules, ions and mesomolecules, following closely the studies of Refs. [3,4,5]. Our aim however is to improve the previous estimates of the respective fusion rates by taking account of the screening effects of the electrons and muons on the nuclear Coulomb barrier which will turn out to be quite important. As in Ref. [5] we will restrict our numerical results to deuterium only.
