Quantification of MagLIF Morphology using the Mallat Scattering Transformation

Glinsky, Michael E.; Moore, Thomas M.; Lewis, William L.; Weis, Matthew R.; Jennings, Christopher A.; Ampleford, David A.; Harding, Eric H.; Knapp, Patrick K.; Gomez, Matthew R.; Lussiez, Sophia L.

The morphology of the stagnated plasma resulting from Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion (MagLIF) is measured by imaging the self-emission x-rays coming from the multi-keV plasma, and the evolution of the imploding liner is measured by radiographs. Equivalent diagnostic response can be derived from integrated rad-MHD simulations from programs such as Hydra and Gorgon. There have been only limited quantitative ways to compare the image mor- phology, that is the texture, of simulations and experiments. We have developed a metric of image morphology based on the Mallat Scattering Transformation (MST), a transformation that has proved to be effective at distinguishing textures, sounds, and written characters. This metric has demonstrated excellent performance in classifying ensembles of synthetic stagnation images. We use this metric to quantitatively compare simulations to experimen- tal images, cross experimental images, and to estimate the parameters of the images with uncertainty via a linear regression of the synthetic images to the parameter used to generate them. This coordinate space has proved very adept at doing a sophisticated relative back- ground subtraction in the MST space. This was needed to compare the experimental self emission images to the rad-MHD simulation images. We have also developed theory that connects the transformation to the causal dynamics of physical systems. This has been done from the classical kinetic perspective and from the field theory perspective, where the MST is the generalized Green's function, or S-matrix of the field theory in the scale basis. From both perspectives the first order MST is the current state of the system, and the second order MST are the transition rates from one state to another. . An efficient, GPU accelerated, Python implementation of the MST was developed. Future applications are discussed.

The staged z-pinch as a potential high gain fusion energy source: An independent review, a negative conclusion

Physics of Plasmas

Lindemuth, Irvin R.; Weis, Matthew R.; Atchison, Walter L.

Previously published calculations predict that the "staged z-pinch" (SZP) can achieve 400 MJ of fusion yield on a Z-class machine. The SZP is touted to need no external preheat mechanism and no external pre-magnetization method. Instead, it is claimed that the imploding liner can adequately "shock preheat" the fuel and magnetic field diffusion through the liner can adequately magnetize the fuel. In this paper, we analyze a number of published SZP calculations and demonstrate that the calculations have major errors - the computer code used to do the calculations does not appear to be accurately solving the physical model it is intended to solve. A variety of independent analyses lead to this conclusion. This conclusion is confirmed by detailed one-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) calculations conducted on different computer codes using a variety of proposed SZP operating parameters. Although using parameters similar or identical to the published calculations, our MHD calculations do not reach fusion conditions; there is no conceivable modification of the parameters that would lead to high-gain fusion conditions using these other codes. Our analyses and a review of the magnetized target parameter space leads to further conclusion that the SZP should not be considered to be a potential high-gain fusion source.

MagLIFEP and MagLIFSNL

Harvey-Thompson, Adam J.; wei, mingsheng w.; Glinsky, Michael E.; Weis, Matthew R.; Nagayama, Taisuke N.; Peterson, Kyle J.; Fooks, J.F.; Giraldez, E.G.; Krauland, C.K.; Campbell, M.C.; Davies, J.D.; Peebles, J.P.; Bahr, R.B.; Edgell, D.E.; Stoeckl, C.S.; Turnbull, D.T.; Glebov, V.Yu.; Emig, J.E.; Heeter, R.H.; Strozzi, D.S.

The MagLIF campaign operated by Sandia conducted a total of four shot days in FY17 (one on OMEGA and three on OMEGA-EP) aimed at characterizing the laser heating of underdense plasmas (D2, Ar) at parameters that are relevant to the Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion (MagLIF) ICF scheme being pursued at Sandia National Laboratories [1] [2]. MagLIF combines fuel preheat, magnetization and pulsed power implosion to significantly relax the implosion velocity and pR required for self-heating. Effective fuel preheat requires coupling several kJ of laser energy into the 10 mm long, underdense (typically ne/nc<0.1) fusion fuel without introducing significant mix. Barriers to achieving this include the presence laser plasma instabilities (LPI) as laser energy is coupled to the initially cold fuel, and the presence of a thin, polyimide laser entrance hole (LEH) foil that the laser must pass through and that can be a significant perturbation.

Minimizing scatter-losses during pre-heat for magneto-inertial fusion targets

Physics of Plasmas

Geissel, Matthias G.; Harvey-Thompson, Adam J.; Awe, Thomas J.; Bliss, David E.; Glinsky, Michael E.; Gomez, Matthew R.; Harding, Eric H.; Hansen, Stephanie B.; Jennings, Christopher A.; Kimmel, Mark W.; Knapp, Patrick K.; Lewis, Sean M.; Peterson, Kyle J.; Schollmeier, Marius; Schwarz, Jens S.; Shores, Jonathon S.; Slutz, Stephen A.; Sinars, Daniel S.; Smith, Ian C.; Speas, C.S.; Vesey, Roger A.; Weis, Matthew R.; Porter, John L.

The size, temporal and spatial shape, and energy content of a laser pulse for the pre-heat phase of magneto-inertial fusion affect the ability to penetrate the window of the laser-entrance-hole and to heat the fuel behind it. High laser intensities and dense targets are subject to laser-plasma-instabilities (LPI), which can lead to an effective loss of pre-heat energy or to pronounced heating of areas that should stay unexposed. While this problem has been the subject of many studies over the last decades, the investigated parameters were typically geared towards traditional laser driven Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) with densities either at 10% and above or at 1% and below the laser's critical density, electron temperatures of 3-5 keV, and laser powers near (or in excess of) 1 × 1015 W/cm2. In contrast, Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion (MagLIF) [Slutz et al., Phys. Plasmas 17, 056303 (2010) and Slutz and Vesey, Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 025003 (2012)] currently operates at 5% of the laser's critical density using much thicker windows (1.5-3.5 μm) than the sub-micron thick windows of traditional ICF hohlraum targets. This article describes the Pecos target area at Sandia National Laboratories using the Z-Beamlet Laser Facility [Rambo et al., Appl. Opt. 44(12), 2421 (2005)] as a platform to study laser induced pre-heat for magneto-inertial fusion targets, and the related progress for Sandia's MagLIF program. Forward and backward scattered light were measured and minimized at larger spatial scales with lower densities, temperatures, and powers compared to LPI studies available in literature.
