Power production and its consumption and distribution are among the most urgent problems of mankind. Despite positive dynamics in introducing renewable sources of energy, nuclear power plants still remain the major source of carbon-free electric energy. Fusion can be an alternative to fission in the foreseeable future. Research in the field of controlled nuclear fusion has been ongoing for almost 100 years. Magnetic confinement systems are the most promising for effective implementation, and the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor is under construction in France. To accomplish nuclear fusion on Earth, we have to resolve a number of scientific and technological problems. This monograph includes selected chapters on nuclear physics and mechanical engineering within the scope of nuclear fusion.

Nuclear Fusion by Inertial Confinement provides a comprehensive analysis of directly driven inertial confinement fusion. All important aspects of the process are covered, including scientific considerations that support the concept, lasers and particle beams as drivers, target fabrication, analytical and numerical calculations, and materials and engineering considerations. Authors from Australia, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, Spain, and the U.S. have contributed to the volume, making it an internationally significant work for all scientists working in the Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) field, as well as for graduate students in engineering and physics with interest in ICF.

How to achieve unlimited, safe, clean and low-cost energy by laser- or beam-driven inertial nuclear fusion has preoccupied all winners of the Edward Teller Medal since its inception in 1991. This book presents their findings, meeting discussions, and personal insights from Edward Teller himself. Expect discussion of important advances anticipated in the future such as multi-billion dollar fusion research projects (NIF), and new schemes such as the petawatt-picosecond laser-plasma interactions evoking new physics and coupling mechanisms. For the first time, laser technology of the new century i

C'est une aventure singulière initiée dans les années 1950. Une communauté scientifique internationale, soutenue par les pouvoirs publics des nations les plus riches, s'est fixée pour objectif de réaliser la fusion d'éléments légers afin de contribuer à la production d'électricité. Quand ? Comment ? À quel prix ? Autant de questions aux réponses incertaines. Les bases physiques de la fusion nucléaire sont connues depuis longtemps. Elles ont conduit à de vastes programmes lancés vers 1970 dans deux directions : les tokamaks pour le confinement magnétique et les lasers multifaisceaux pour le confinement inertiel. Jusqu'aux étapes clés actuelles que sont ITER et les lasers mégajoule, les avancées ont été spectaculaires mais insuffisantes. Après plus d'un demi-siècle de recherches et de développement, la preuve n'est toujours pas apportée d'une énergie de fusion supérieure à l'énergie investie dans le fonctionnement du dispositif. Il faudra encore de longs délais avant d'envisager une exploitation industrielle, un autre demi-siècle peut-être ? Si d'autres recherches se poursuivent en marge, notamment sur les systèmes hybrides fusion-fission, le réacteur à fusion tel qu'on l'imagine en 2011 se situe dans le prolongement des deux grandes filières que sont les tokamaks et la voie inertielle par laser. L'avenir n'est pas écrit. La seule certitude est que si l'on parvient à maîtriser la fusion thermonucléaire, l'humanité disposera d'une ressource très abondante pour satisfaire sa demande d'énergie électrique, sans émission de gaz à effet de serre et avec une radioactivité posant moins de problèmes que celle de l'énergie de fission.
