Abstract
- In inertial confinement fusion, the scientific issues include the generation and transport of driver energy, the pellet design, the uniform target implosion physics, and the realistic nuclear fusion reactor design. In this paper, we present a pellet injection into a power reactor in heavy-ion inertial fusion (HIF). We employ a magnetic correction method to reduce the pellet alignment error in HIF reactor chamber, including the gravity, the reactor gas drag force, and the injection errors. We found that the magnetic correction device proposed in this paper is effective to construct a robust pellet injection system with a sufficiently small pellet alignment error. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
