Fig. 4: Comparison of simulated species temperatures.
From: Observation of persistent species temperature separation in inertial confinement fusion mixtures
Mass-weighted ion temperatures for each reacting material in 3D simulations with varied pore size Data is included for simulations with 30 μm (black), 50 μm (blue), and 90 μm (red) pore sizes. The temperatures for the CH0.5D0.5 foam matrix use solid lines and the temperatures for the HT gas fill use dashed lines. The HT temperatures are consistently higher than the CH0.5D0.5 temperatures throughout the compression- and burn-phases of the implosion.
