摘要：

Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion experiments performed at Sandia's Z facility have demonstrated significant thermonuclear fusion neutron yields (similar to 10(12) DD neutrons) from multi-keV deuterium plasmas inertially confined by slow (similar to 10 cm/mu s), stable, cylindrical implosions. Effective magnetic confinement of charged fusion reactants and products is signaled by high secondary DT neutron yields above 10(10). Analysis of extensive power, imaging, and spectroscopic x-ray measurements provides a detailed picture of similar to 3 keV temperatures, 0.3 g/cm(3) densities, gradients, and mix in the fuel and liner over the 1-2 ns stagnation duration.
