摘要

Abstract

We analyze the possibility of a combined use of type II superconductors (both low and high temperature) for noncontact acceleration of a cryogenic fuel target (CFT) located inside a levitating sabot to the required injection velocities (200‒400 m/s) when it is delivered at the focus of an inertial confinement fusion laser facility. We consider CFTs containing a layer of fuel (hydrogen isotopes) in different structural states—from a single crystal to ultra-fine solid phases.
