One reason these factors have a large impact on the performance of inertial confinement fusion implosions is the high convergence required to achieve high fusion gains.To tackle these problems, a predictable implosion platform is needed meaning experiments must trade-off high gain for performance. ...
Fractals exhibit self-similarity, meaning their inner structure has the same pattern as their outer structure (like a pine cone or a fern tree). Just as fractality describes the geometry of waves of energy or charge, fractals manifest as wave patterns that evolve ad infinitum – like an ...

Because afractalsignifies infinite compression,it is what spans the gap between the symmetries of the very small and the very large. Fractals exhibit self-similarity, meaning their inner structure has the same pattern as their outer structure - like a pine cone or a fern tree. Just as fractal...
We then show that MagLIF loads can be "incompletely" similarity scaled, meaning that the experimental input parameters of MagLIF can be varied such that many (but not all) of the dimensionless quantities are conserved. Based on similarity-scaling arguments, we can explore the parameter space of...
