Temperature Measurements of Cluster Fusion Plasmas using D-3He or CD4-3He mixtures on the Texas Petawatt

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We present a novel way of determining the plasma temperature in a laser-cluster fusion experiment on the Texas Petawatt laser, which uses the ratio of the 2.45 MeV neutron and 14.7 MeV proton yields.
