Title: Explosion marks laser fusion breakthrough.
Authors: Clery, Daniel
Source: Science (pre-March 2025). 12/16/2022, Vol. 378 Issue 6625, p1154-1155. 2p. 1 Color Photograph.
Subjects: United States. Dept. of Energy. National Ignition Facility, Fusion reactor fuel, Dynamite, Thermonuclear fuels, Nuclear weapons
Abstract: The article reports that researchers at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) in California focused 2.05 megajoules of laser light onto a tiny capsule of fusion fuel and sparking an explosion that produced 3.15 MJ of energy, the equivalent of about three sticks of dynamite. It mentions that NIF's primary function is to create miniature thermonuclear explosions and provide data to ensure the U.S. arsenal of nuclear weapons is safe and reliable.
