| Abstract | Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF) consists of the hydrodynamic compression of a wall, hot, magnetized DT plasma to ignition conditions. MTF takes advantage of two benefits of a magnetic field in a plasma: reduction of the thermal conductivity and enhancement of the charged particle reaction product energy deposition. To study the ignition conditions, we evaluate the gains brought by compression and fusion and losses dissipated by bremsstrahlung, Compton, conduction and synchrotron. We are able to construct the boundaries for boot-strapping burn (dT/dt/spl ges/0) with or in absence (ICF) of magnetic field. We demonstrate that MTF ignition can occur using very low implosion velocities for plasmas with very low Rho-R and densities (by ICF standards). This is possible because the major heat loss mechanism, thermal conduction is suppressed by megagauss fields and the DT alpha particles are partially trapped within the plasma. We prove, unlike ICF, that the fusion region for MTF is sensitive to the mass of the DT in the target. This sensitivity just reflects the fact that the additional physical processes involved in MTF don't have the same dependence on density and target radius separately, so the the equations don't scale in such a simple way with Rho-R. For a target containing 10 mu-gm of DT, the MTF region is considerably smaller than for 100 mu-gm, and even the ICF region is hardly enlarged at all. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
