Modelling charged-particle transport and heating in fusion plasmas

University of Warwick Department of Physics

The project will investigate a very important aspect of inertial confinement fusion. the internal heating by fusion products. Recently, inertial confinement fusion has made considerable progress reaching the stage of substantial internal heating and later positive energy outcome (ignition) in several experiments. Read more
