Takizawa-san’s paper is published in the High Energy Density Physics journal.
The paper “Effect of irradiation uniformity on quasi-isentropic shock compression of solid spheres” explores how the uniformity of laser light affects the compression of solid spherical targets used in laser fusion energy research. This study highlights the importance of precise laser control in fusion energy research, suggesting that dynamic adjustments to the laser spot size could further enhance the uniformity and efficiency of the compression process. This advancement could significantly contribute to the development of fusion energy as a reliable and clean power source.
