A primary goal of the Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) Program on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) is to implode a low-Z capsule filled with 0.2 mg of deuterium-tritium (DT) fuel with >370 km/s velocity via laser indirect drive ICF and demonstrate fusion ignition and propagating thermonuclear burn with net fusion energy gain (fusion energy/laser energy >1).This requires assembling the DT fuel at implosion stagnation into a dense~1000 g/cc shell with an areal density of 1.5 g/cm2 surrounding a lower density hot spot with~10 keV temperature and~0.3 g/cm2 areal density.
