Abstract
One of the significant problems of modern physics is the creation and use of new energy sources. The decisive step in this direction is the realization of a positive yield in thermonuclear energy on a laboratory scale with the facilities that create and retain plasma. Between 2010 and 2017, a large series of experiments were performed at the National Ignition Facility laser at the Livermore Laboratory in the United States with the aim of achieving such a positive outcome. Until now, however, the ignition has not been reached. In this paper, for the first time the influence of the hohlraum radiation on capsule layers including a deuterium–tritium layer is discussed. It is shown that the negative influence of the ablator transparency can be compensated for by the selection of a capsule design with a greater optical thickness of the part of the ablator. This part of the ablator is not evaporated upon heating by an X-ray pulse. The design of such a capsule is proposed.
