Abstract

Fusion neutron sources do not require a high power gain, when used as part of a hybrid fusion–fission reactor. The efficiency of the neutron source can be substantially increased by increasing the reaction rate due to the injection of fast atoms. We study such regimes to evaluate optimal parameters of injection. Possible parameters are estimated for neutron sources based on closed magnetic traps, such as tokamak, stellarator and field reversed magnetic configuration.
