Data-driven assessment of magnetic charged particle confinement parameter scaling in magnetized liner inertial fusion experiments on Z

William E. E. Lewis et al.

Summary: In magneto-inertial fusion, the ratio of the characteristic fuel length perpendicular to the applied magnetic field R to the a-particle Larmor radius .a is crucial and determines the scale of electron thermal-conduction loss and charged burn-product confinement. By using a deep-learning-based Bayesian inference tool, the magnetic-field fuel-radius product BR cx R=.a was obtained from 16 magnetized liner inertial fusion experiments. The results indicate the potential for improving MagLIF performance through careful tuning of experimental inputs, while also emphasizing the need to mitigate risks from mix and 3D effects when scaling MagLIF to higher currents with a next-generation driver.

Deep-learning-enabled Bayesian inference of fuel magnetization in magnetized liner inertial fusion

William E. Lewis et al.

Summary: Fuel magnetization in magneto-inertial fusion experiments enhances charged burn product confinement and increases the probability of nuclear reactions. A deep-learned surrogate of a physics-based model reduces computational costs for Bayesian inference of magnetization, rigorously considering uncertainties. Systematically varying preheat in MagLIF experiments showed a decrease in magnetization as laser preheat energy increased, consistent with 2D simulations.
