This paper analyzes x-ray-driven implosions that are designed to be less sensitive to 2D and 3D effects in Hohlraum and capsule physics. Key performance metrics including the burn-averaged ion temperature, hot-spot areal density, and fusion yield are found to agree with simulations where the design adiabat (internal pressure) is multiplied by a factor of 1.4. These results motivate the development of a simple model for interpreting experimental data, which is then used to quantify how improvements in compression could help achieve ignition.
