Abstract:Minimum cost design concepts of the primary shield for the National Ignition laser fusion experimental Facility (NIF) are the help of the optimization code SWAN. The computational method developed for this search involves incorporating the time dependence of the delayed photon field within effective delayed photon production cross sections. This method enables one to address the time-dependent problem using relatively simple, time-independent transport calculations, thus significantly simplifying the design p… Show more
