Effect of Internal Breeding of Tritium and Helium-3 on the Ignition of an ICF Fuel Pellet

Abstract: Self-heating condition and following ignition in an Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) fuel pellet is evaluated by calculating the power equations, dynamically. In fact, the self-heating condition is a criterion that determines the minimum parameters of a fuel (such as temperature, density and areal density) that can be ignited.Deuterium is the main component of ICF fuels as large amounts of it are naturally available. In addition, the use of deuterium as a fuel in ICF causes the production of tritium and heliu… Show more

“…In this paper, the fusion cross section of the two most important reactions, T(d, n) 4 He and 3 He(d, p) 4 He is calculated and compared with other theoretical and experimental data. These reactions are very important specially for plasma fusion [15]. The present study is similar to 3-parameters formula that based on resonant tunneling theory with higher partial waves and taking into account conservation of angular momentum and parity.…”

“…The surface of the Moon is distributed with dark cracks known as rilles [4]. In [5], the Moon is rich in energy resources, such as helium-3, which is an efficient, clean, safe, and cheap nuclear fusion resource. The availability of helium-3 on the Moon is much higher than that on the Earth, and helium-3 has been proved to be abundant in the lunar stream [6].…”
