Abstract
To determine effect of relativistic corrections on the ignition requirements for P11B Fuel, the rate of energy transfer between ions and electrons and bremsstrahlung loss power are investigated. This research indicates that for overcoming the bremsstrahlung radiation, the electrons temperature must be lower than the ions temperature (less than 100 keV). The bremsstrahlung power is minimized with selecting ratio number of boron ions to number of proton ions in pre-compressed fuel equal 0.2. It determined that the performance of P11B in equilibrium plasma is optimized for temperature of ions in range 300–400 keV depending on the exact value of the Coulomb logarithm in P11B reaction. Reducing the coulomb logarithm all the way to \(\ln\Lambda = 5\) improves the performance of P11B fuel somewhat.
